Considerable Liverpool end southern
selling was absorbed by covering and
trade buying and the market anon
turned upward, January advancing
from 23 01 to 23.3 R In the first hour.
The outlook for a cold wave in the
southwest probably contributed to the
advance. The chief factor to bo the
optimistic view of trade prospectm and
reports that spinner* were buying on

check the advance around 23.35 for

NEW ORLEANS.-—The cotton mar
ket hail mi easier opening despite
Liverpool was about as due. Flrat
trades showed decline* of eight to 12
points The decline was attributed
to hedge selling and to a forecast liy
D prominent authority of a crop of

claimed 85 per cent of the crop had
been picked and 70 per rent ginned.
The market rallied on map indications
of colder and possibly rainy weather
and on an official mreenst for unset

Market Closed Steady;
Augusta Spots 22.81
By W. A. LUFDURROW
Market Editor.
Thorr: hr mmore apathy In the? cot
ton market Thursday than has been
the easy In severul days ami aa a re
sult tho natural consequence was a
declining market. On the close spot
cotton at Augusta whs quoted at 22.81,
a decline of 10 points from previous
closing quotations. Thero is more
supply than demand and until tho
market worka to a point that will
justify taking of this commodity th**
decline will continue from time to
time until tiuch is roughed.
A large trade demand Is reported
on all declines, though the action of
the market did not Indicate mich.
Thirteen million hale crop loti been
estimated hy Ollea. Thin In thought
to have been discounted—the guess 1h
a long t hnncc.
After all tho smouo has been clear
ed and the terrible predictions about
the country ging to thu devil, if one
or the other candidate was elected,
have burnted like the soap bubbles
they were—-political propaganda of the
sort, that offered an Insult to the in
telligence of man -the mfirket shows
signs at this time of settling* down.
In the menu time Mr. IJnvln can re
turn to his law business, and Mr. I.a-
Follett© take up Ids duties in the
Senate, and President Cool'd#© will
stay "put” for the ensuing four years.
After all 1h said end done, there is
Very little to he disturbed over who
will and will not be President. Hither
of the three candidates could Just hs
easily moved back into private Hfo
without any sort of a misfortune to
the nation. Croumstances are big
ger than men, and sometimes a man
i■< big enough to enable clrcunutance*
to make a national or International
figure of him. The nation will
not be disrupted in the next few
month* by a new rnnn and different
party moving Into nnwer. We should
move along very nicely.
It is the op'niun of some New Pork
cotton interest, nnd It Is not so far
fetched either, that the election will
have a tendency to harden prices,
steady the market, nnd will add to
the encouraging outlook of the Euro
pean situation. Buying of rtecllnea
iu thought to be a wise move.
Discussing the cotton situation
"Federal International Newn," of New
Orleans, says:
"it is now pretty dearly establish
ed that the cotton crop of 11*24 Is
miffb lent for world needH und yet is
not large enough to furnish any pon
derable surplus nt the end of the year
unless all expectations of industrial
and commercial development ar« sad
ly disappointed.
"The government report of October
25th indicates a final yield of 12.675,-
000 bales and that Is not likely to be
greatly Increased even if there should
lie a continuation of tho Indian sum
mer of the last three weeks because
the cotton plant of this day is con
siderably unlike the cotton plant of 20
ago. In developing boll wee
vil resistance the plant breeders have
evolved types of cotton which mature
rather quickly and th top crop of
former days, which was never de
pendabte, hns now point to be almott
negligible.
“The exports to date and the tak
ings of foreign mills are greater than
at this tlmo last year which would In
dicate that the foreign mills resurd
present prices as profitable for man
ufacture. American mills have taken
more sparingly but the strength of
the market following tha last govern
| ment report Indlenten a favorable at
titude by American purchasers of cot
ton. It la u somewhat peculiar cir
cumstance that during tho rurrent
cotton season the South has been
hiore ’bearish’ than the North In
speculative circles. The much abused
Wall street' has seemed to have mere
confidence In values than traders re
siding In the Colton 8011.
"The precise percentage or the total
volume of consumption of the cur
rent year Is a matter of opinion. Ac
cording to the annual report of tho
New Orleans Cotton Exchange (Col
onel Hester’s figures) the world con
sumption of American cotton for the
year ending Julyl 31st was 11,241,000
bales contrasted with 12,G3t,000 hales
fqr the preceding year and 12,820,000
for the year 1921-22. The International
Federation of Master Cotton Hplnner*
Assoc at lone estimates the world con
sumption of American cotton last year
at 10,975,000 hairs ns against 12,710.-
000 bales the preeeeding year. The
cotton trade generally glvea higher
credit to Colonel ITeatar'a flgurre.
Since both exports and takings by
world spinners of American cotton to
thla date nre slightly In extras of
exports and tnklnga for the. same pe
riod Inst yenr the Indications at thla
tlmo nre that world consumption dur
ing the current year will reach at
least 12,000,000 hales, it may easily
he more, and In any event la not
likely to add much to tho slender car
ry-oved of the Inst cotton year.
"This opinion Is strengthened hy a
recent outgiving hy the United States
Department rff Agriculture to the ef
fect that on account of tha shor sup
nlles of cotton throughout the world. '
on account of the dependence of Lan
cashire upon American cotton and the
slow progress of cotton production In
other reglonn of the world, conditions
all point to Increased demand for Am
erican cotton.’*
