fiuence of disappointing Liverpool cables
and a weak stock market cotton opened
to points below Saturdays close. After
which on light receipts a rally was had,
but only to weaken again TO a still lower
level on some lltle southern selling and an
absence of buyers. Towards noon the To-
Gals again infused some little life into trad
ing in anticipation of the bureau estimate
which when read small as 1t is-S, 800 600
fell fiat and prices actually dropped to
points. The bureau has usually underesu-
mated the yield from half to one million
bales. Its last years guest was tribe I'M
der ten million, when the out turn was H.
10000. Some effort was made to hold the
market early in the afternoon session. The
differences between months are widening,
and where, as between January and March
it was only 2 to points a short time ago
it is now fully 10 points.

COTTON MARKET
NOT SUCCESSFUL
At No Time Was the Trading

DESTITUTE OF BUSINESS
Close Was Quiet and Steady, at Net
Loss of from Three to Six
Points-The Pit De-
serted
OF BUSINESS

New York, December 11-From a specu-
latiye point of view today's cotton market
as not success. At no time was the
trading active, while most of the session
the pit was nearly deserted. After OPEN
ing easy at decline of 5Q7 points-this in
response to an unfavorable turn of af-
fairs in Liverpool, attributed to the Brit
ish reverses in South Africa-the market
followed a most uneventful course.
The forenoon apathy was prominent for
confusion of IDEAS existing concerning the
probable showing of the December gov
eminent report; but even after the long
looked-for statement had come to hand,
there was little or no stimulation to trad
ing.
The crowd in the pit appeared to be en-
tlrely destitute of business for the account
of outside constituents. Europe. the south.
Wall street and the winter interests fur
nished scarcely enough orders to keep one
broker busy. The acreage was estimated
at 23,o22, 900 by telegraph report this after
noon. but not generally believed.
The largest average yield in pounds per
acre was 23S in Louisiana. The interior
came next with 235 with Mississippi re-
porting 209 pounds per acre. The finding
of the statistician at Washington was based
largely ON increased special reports in ad-
dftion to the regular advices.
The market closed quiet and steady at
net loss of to points. A petition is in
circulation on the local exchange asking
that Saturday preceding Christmas and
New Year be made holidays.
