New York, March 1.-Clapp & Co. in
their weekly review, say of cotton: Cot
ton goods are dun everywhere. The cot
ton visible is larger than ever before at
this date. American spinners took from
Sept. l to Washington's birthday 2,0SS.S0S
equaling more cotton than was ever alb
sorbed IN a season prior to 1SS9-9O twhen
,231, 600 bales We're taken). For the year
ending Sept l, 1892, exporters and spinners
took $4,000 bales. We have exported
more cotton since Sept. ! than the worlds
visible; SO per cent. is American. For
eigners are reported holding more than
so per cent. of the visible.
According to the government estimate,
the amount to come in sight is only about
100000 bales. We look for crop of about
r-~n Elln ~
bales to come in sight before Sept l, and
believe the market will be more influ-
enced by the large visible and invisible
stocks before midsummer than from
Drospective shrinkage in the acreage or
final output. The season following the big
crop in 1912 the crop shrinkage was
near 20 per cent, and the tertilizers used
near 40 per cent. less. Low prices ruled
during the early planting season Spin
ners and foreigners then held less supplies
and SPECTATORS larger visible stock:
A resolution has been offered in the
House of Commons to revive restricted
trade, and the English appear favorable
to another international bimetalHc confer
ence. Englands free trade principles
toward India and the world must further
damage American cotton growers More
than two-thrds of our crop crosses the
Atlantic in European steamers. Our aV-
erage home consumption during the past
ten years has only equaled 81 per cent.
Argentine ought to buy cotton of us
more literally Their imports have near
" doubled the past decade New York's
exports to South and Central America
and Mexico since Jan. have been about
20 per cent. larger than last year same
time The China trade has decreased fully
rs per cent same time.
New York, March 1.-Riordan & Co.
say of cotton to-day: THE interior and
mort receipts to-day were very large, and
evervbody thought that prices must go
down. but quiet and continuous buying
by one of the leading bear operators and
also for New Orleans account, supported
The market throughout the day. Stmu-
lated by the improvement in Liverpool,
NAV opened at SAC and did not sell be-
low s. 4sc At one time the market showed
great firmness. and May advanced to 552c
bid. but the demand slackened toward the
close. which was steady. with the trading
in May at Sac. Private advices lead US
70 axnect heavy receipts during the com
ing week. and we fear that we shall see
somewhat lower prices"
