ATLANTA GEORGIAN. 11 IN EARLY TRADING Decline Resulted From Persistent Selling. WEATHER IN THE BELT CONTIN UES OF A FAVORABLE CHARACTER. The reporta on the acreage and con diilnn of the cotton crop has proved too heavy a load for the market to carry. They are not all one way. nor are they from the same source, neverthe Irss they go to make a heavy load. Each report has Its followers, hence opinion l» hopelessly divided, bo much •n that the course of prices at present does not Indicate which side of tho ac count Is most confident. At the moment the bears are ap parently making moat and better uso of reports emanating from statisticians who figure out the largest acreage and higher conditions. In that tho trend of prices today during the early trading was distinctly downward. Liverpool, after a three days’ holi day during which tlmo the govern ment acreage and condition report, which was considered by tho trade generally as bullish, opened this morn ing at an advance such as frequently occurs under normal conditions, the close showed the opening advance en tirely wiped out, the tono being easy at | to 5 points below Friday's finals. Hales of spot cotton were only 6.000 bales, at an advance of 3 points; mid dling 6.05. . , This was not encouraging to the American market, which gave the bears confidence, they becoming rather ag gressive shortly aftor tho opening, which was barely steady and un changed to 4 points lower, and up to midday prices continued on tho down grade, though on tho reading of the government weekly weather report there was an Improvement of a point ° The°N.w York Sun, In Its rovlow of the cotton market yesterday, says: ■'Two years ago, Indeed, In the year when the crop was 11,(50,000 bales; the condition at this time was only II, or l l-s per cent lower than It is now. But the market, apart from all this, was In a condition to advance. Any body who has given the slightest at tention to the technical situation knows that It has been heavily sold for tho decline for some time post by the South and that the local clement. Including not a few of the Wall street traders, had been encouraged to tnke tho short side by the collapse of the May and July options lest week and tho gener ally favorable weather for aomo weeks past. Tho advance yesterday must bo ascribed largely to the over-crowding of the bear side, although It wob duo In some measurs early In tho day to manipulation by the bull leader and some of his followers." C. D. Freeman A Co. say of the day's market: “The market shown consider able steadiness, despite rather heavy selling. The underestimate of the acre age haa little to do with the strength, but the feeling prevails that short , selling should be cautious In view of the possible unfavorable crop develop ments as the season progresses." The market was steady In the after toon, with trading very dull, both sides tpparently allowing the market to drift. SPOT COTTON MARKET. Atlanta-Quiet, He. New York-Quiet. 11.S.

Thi world will shortly corns to an appreciation of the fact that a crop of lLWCooO bales nrobntla"* comn * sesson la utterly !:::■ Glburt A Clay’s Dally Cotton Lsttor, Now Orleans, June 5.—Opening prices In the foreign market were decidedly reassuring and seemed to reflect a keen appreciation of the port yesterday, but ; came Imbued with ments that the American markets con tlnue to express and o after point, finally closing 3 to 6 points lower than Friday's levels. Spot sales showed a marked curtailment, only 5,000 bales being sold, but at an ad vance of 3 points. Exactly upon what basis tho trade figures yesterday’s re port as bearish U somewhat difficult ion, for tho condition ost|. ,6 Is slightly below the aver- ago for the post ten years, while there Is nothing In the acreago Increase of 8.2 to Justify any reckless selling on the part of the bears. An average yield on the acreage planted would be less than the requisite 12,000,000 bales, and the records of past seasons prove that fully as many have produced less as have yielded more than the aceroge; while, on the other hand, with the advent of a change for the worse In the weather—and it u not unreasonable to assume that tha excellent conditions that have hitherto prevailed con be prolonged Indefinitely—crop accounts will become less glowing and Induce sufficient buying to bring about a good reaction. With this consideration In view, and the fact that the world's con sumption shows a steady Increase with the culmination of each year, there ap- mars little cause to justify seriously ower prices for some time to come but In tha meantime tho character o the weather Is the Influence of tho mo ment and may be expected to cause fluctuations sufficiently broad to Induce Increased market Interest.
