COTTON LETTERS
DAVISON & FARGO’S LETTER.
The cotton market this morning
was nervous and unsettled in antici
pation of the bureau report, but with
out material change. Futures In Liv
erpol declined 3 to 4 points during
the regular- session. In New York
prices at one time were 5 to 10 down,
but recovered before the report came
out at 2 o’clock. The Liverpool ex
change was opened from 6:45 p. m.
(their time) to 8 o’clock to give their
members an opportunity for trading
after hearing the estimate.
The bureau report estimating the
total yield (exclusive of linters) at
10,088,0000 bales of 500 pounds each
was issued at 2 o’clock and caused
a most excited and irregular market.
.Prices in New York bounded upward
rapidly until an advance of from 30 to
40 points was established in a few
moments, only to be folowed by a
sharp decline, and prices fluctuated
sharply until the close, which was
firm, but excited and irregular, 20 to
35 points higher than last evening.
At the special session of the Liver,
pool exchange futures advanced 11 to
13 points from the regular close ear
lier in the day. Our market here this
morning was on a 14 7-8 basis for
middling, but the excitement attend
ing the report stopped all trading tem
porarily. At the close the price is
quoted 15 cents for middling, with
the tone firm. —Davison & Fargo.
