NEW YORK. Dec. 21. In response to
strength in Liverpool cables the cotton
market opened Et« .idy to-day witrh first
D ices at a net advance of 2 to 10 points
from Tuesday's close. There was con-
I tale ruble covering in Liverpool for the
j Christmas holidays. Trad* interests
(••ntinucd to buy here, and there was
evidence of outside speculation.
Cloudy weather and rain was reported
Jover the greater part of the belt, which
Helped the advance along. T
After the call there was unloading of
Christmas* cotton and January and July
I est about 5 points from the opening.
Other positions, however, held firm.
Later the market showed additional
Ft length on further resistance in Liv
erpool and there was an inclination on
the part of ring shorts to cover. Re-
1 ports that spot demand was increasing
t r\t d to make sellers go slow' and dur
ing the forenoon the list stood 10 to 13
points higher than the previous close.
Following are 11 a. m. bids in New
York: January, 12.05; March, 12.30;
May. 12.28; July. 12.26.
While the buying movement was at
its height, with December selling around
12.28. January 12.10 ami March 12.34, a
sudden wave of general realizing sales
over Christmas caused the market to
change its course during the late fore
noon and prices quickly receded to the
previous close. This selling was said to
no further long line liquidation and
profit-taking by those who bought on
yesterday’s advance.
The new currency law is expected to
do much in restoring prosperity
throughout the country and has al
ready given the trade greater confi
dence in higher values. It is reported
that holders are firmer and will resist
the decline.

DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 24. English
consols are quoted 3-16d higher. The
stock of American cotton at Liverpool
in to-day’s statement for the week is
678.000 bales less than last year and
34,000 bales less than In 1911.
The Liverpool market again showed a
good market, with futures about 5
points higher than due; spots 11 points
higher; sales, 8.000 bales. Our market
opened about 4 points higher; was
steady, but cautious New York ad
vices. while admitting the bullish
change, by heavy liquidation and a drop
to « price level, which Is nowadays re
garded a.s a mean basis.
The rally of the past two days Is
considered rather as a neutral reaction
Real and confident enterprise on the
part of speculation has yet to develop,
and this is hardly expected until after
the turn of the year and notice day de
velopments are known.
The resolute action of Congress In re
spect to currency legislation has shown
itself favorably by greater confidence in
financial matters. Reports come from
many points of a stronger tendency by
holders to resist the decline
We shall compare on Friday with mill
takings of 399,000 hales for this week
last year and 312,000 bales In 1911.
The into sight for the week Is roughly
estimated around 541,000 bales In 1911.
The into sight for the week Is roughly
estimated around 641.000 bales, against
445.329 bales last year.
As a vanguard of the next c'op a re
port comes from South Texas, that
owing to the awful weather this month,
preliminary conditions are unfavorable
and unless a long dry spell improves
matters In January preparations will be
late.

PRICE CURRENT GRAIN REPORT.
CINCINNATI, Dec. 24.—The Govern
ment report on acreage and condition
of winter wheat was up to expectations.
high condition must be accepted
with some reserve, as the fall has not
been favorable to the best results, hav-
ng made a very rank growth over a
ar *e P art of the country and estab
lished a sensitive situation should a
very wet spell of weather be followed
by a general freeze up.
The large acreage was the result of
1 P°° r c °™ crop and the dry summer
and fall, which caused many farmers to
put in more wheat than usual, as an in-
surar.ee against the future, and in some
sections to provide a late pasture, the
latter event having been well realized.
