EFFORTS OF BEARS OF LITTLE EFFECT New York, Sept. 14.—The developments In the cotton situation yesterday were not very palatable to tho bear. For one thing, llsh market, according eats 1 >ought the near months. r . . r .. demand was reported at the South, where prices were 1-18 to %c higher at many points. Numerous bullish crop reports were received from the Kouthwest, telling of se rious deterioration lu the condition of the crop through ravages b/ weevil and worms, shedding nnd so on. Bearish crop reoprta were received from the eastern section of the I>elt, as well as aome parte of tbe re gion west of MisHlssIppl. Lending locnl and wall street Interests sold rather freely nt times In opposition to the upward move ment of prices, nnd there was mors or less renllalnfi. Rut with the buying by New Or- Icftn* in this market and the covering by nervous shorts the efforts of the bears had little effect, especially na aome Increase In the volume of outside business wna noticea ble, although trading was still in the mslu of a professional character.—Glbert A Clay. New Orleans, Sept. 14—The Tlmes-Demo- crat anya: Covering by shorts rnther than Investment buying caused yesterday'* cot ton market to close at the day’* high tevel v or aome 60c a bale above the final figures of the prevlons session. Behind the bears’ waning confidence was the strength of tbe •pot market and the seal with which buyers all over the South gathered In all offerings. Further, the cablegrams brought news of active buying of actual qottou abroad, the fear having spread that some sort of n ■pot equeexe at Liverpool waa on the pro gram of current events. Crop news gen orally was bullish lu one way or another, and Georgia buyers wero reported mlgrat Ing to Texas In the hope of filling trouble seme September commitments there.
