COTTON MARKET OPINIONS.
Hayden, Stone & Co.: "A more con
servative attitude is adopted, pending
some change in the Southern spot sttu-
al Browning & Co.: "We believe that
below 11.75 for spring and summer
months cotton can be purchased for a
substantial advance."
E F. Hutton & Co.: "The market
seems to he pretty well evened up, and
we continue of the opinion that short
commitments should be handled cau
tiously " „ fil , , . .
Logan & Bryan. "With the trade be-
coming reconciled to the belief in a
yield of fairly liberal proportions, it
does not seem as though the spinning
interests will follow advancing tenden
cies with purchases, considering the
price and the status of general busi
ness conditions."

bles—Spot Houses Buy.
NEW YORK, Dec. 29. -Liverpool oa* |
bles were awaited with nervousness by I
the bulls, for It was realized that they J
would give a clew to the Impression |
which the advance here made on for*
eign traders during the triple holiday.
Liverpool more than responded to the
advance here and that market was
about 8 points higher than last Wed
nesday's close, resulting in the local cot
ton market opening steady, with first
prices at a net advanceY>f 5 to IS points
from Saturday’s close. On the opening
there was good buying, attributed to
spot houses and houses with Southern
connections. This held the market
strong during the first fifteen minutes,
but the marnet developed a downward
movement after the call, as a result of
heavy selling by a number of Independ
ent operators, who sold for Immediate
profits. This brought out Considerable
liquidation in December and January,
causing general weakness. Liverpool
and New Orleans were noticeable on the
selling side Wall street and commission
houses sold. The ring was Inclined to
sell on all rallies, while the larger «pot
houses seemed inclined to absorb the
distress cotton. The market lost Its
advance and fell hack to the previous
close.
Everybody seems to be waiting for
January notice day to-morrow. The
majority of trailers believe that the hid
den mitt of the big spot interests is in
the January-March situation. It is be
lieved that these houses have covered
January rather freely during the past
several days, but It Is believed that they
are still short of that month, while they
are presumably long of March. How
large* tenders will be it is problematical,
but some close observers would not* be
surprised to sen most of the certificated
staple delivered. Certificated stock of
cotton in local warehouses total about
68,000 bales, but it can be tendered be
fore it has been classified. The total
amount of cotton in local warehouses is
over 89.000 bales. It. is reported that a
good deal of sandy, trashy cotton has
been refused by the exchange recently
as unsplnnable.
During the late forenoon the market
was under a general wave of profit tak
ing by those who bought around the low
price a week ago. There was consider
able liquidation of January on the
theory that all of the 88.000 bales of
certificated stock would he tendered
Tuesday. Support was lacking and De
cember eased off to 12.17, January 3 2.03
and March 12.34.
At the close the market was steady
with prices 6 points higher to 4 points
lower than the final quotations of Sat
urday.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 29.- Liverpool
is encouraging in futures au well as in
spots. The former at the opening of
our market were about 5 points higher
than due; spot prices 5 points higher;
sales larger; total 12.000 hales. Cables
report better feeling generally over
trade prospects, and uneasiness among
mills over small stocks and difficulty in
securing desirable cotton.
First trades here were ai an a/1vance
of 6 to 8 points, folldwed by easiness,
mostly In consequence of dull trade dur
ing the New Year's week, and reserve
over the coming Census report. Press
comment continues generally optimistic,
looking for a boom year In many lines
of trade.
Professional advices from New York
show a distinct change in feeling toward
the market. Several Influential Inter-

Bartlett-Frazier Company says:
"Wheat—We look for a quiet market
during the next few days.
"Corn - Speculative sentiment, as a
whole, continues very bearish, but there
is still considerable buying of an in
vestment character and the market is
becoming heavily oversold.
"Oats—There is more or less pressure
from Canadian offerings, which has a
tendency to curtail the demand of our
own products.
"Provisions—Prospects are for a get-
erally lighter run «*f hogs, which should
help prices, especially as there has been
considerable scattered liquidation, owing
to lower corn values."
