The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1902-09-10

New Orleans, Sept. 9.-Liyerpool adj
vices We're more encouraging than
looked for, consequently our market
opened to higher and subsequently
advanced to 10 additional on the
weekly weather report being more I'M
favorable than expected closing at a
net gain Of 13 to IA points ON the day
The weekly weather report summary
was as follows:
Texas and large part of the Central
and Eastern districts of the cotton belt
have had abundant rainfall during the
week but it is doubtful whether the
beneficial effect of these rains to late
cotton will offset the injury done to
open staple. Cotton has opened more
rapidly than it could be picked. In
portions of the central and eastern dis
trcts many fields are already nearly
cleaned and the reports generally indi-
cate that the crop will be gathered
much earlier than usual"
The practical confederation of
monthly bureau to-day by the weekly
weather report which shows marked
deterioration in crop outlook will I'M
doubtedly have it's effect on the mind
of European spinners. 1t seems that
the purpOrt of the bureau is just be-
ginning to pereolate judging from the
improved demand for spots in Liver
pool In our own market the sales
were $500 bales to-day, and values
showed a firmer tendency. With a
continued demand for spots the heavy
movement will be offset and if specula-
ton enters the market prices might en-
nance considerably. Nevertheless 1t
must not be forgotten that the world
requires over 100000 American for
consumption this year, irrespective of
any other feature, therefore we think
purchases made on all decided breaks
will ultimately prove profitable.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON MARKET.

New Orleans. Sept. 9.-The demand
for spot cotton to-day was quite active.
Quotations unchanged.
The market for contracts was in an
uncertain mood during the first part
of the day. The opening was 4 to 5
points above yesterdays closing range,
and was followed by a further gain of
to points in sympathy with New
York. AT that level there was dis
position among small traders to realize,
and prices fell off 4 to points tenn
porarily in consequence. Later on
there was some Improvement and
thereafter the market was fairly
steady, the board at the close showing
net gains of II points on August, and
IL to Il points on the other months.

Hubbard Bros, & Coz. Cation Letter

New York, Sept. 9.-Liyerpool regard
ed the decline in America as marking
a point from which a reaction, if not
a decided rally was to be expected. II
therefore was steadier than anticipat-
ed, and led to a rally from the very
opening. Rumors regarding the con-
centration with one firm of all the
purchases of January and sales OF
March which have been made during
the past month were current Many
theories were advanced as to the rea-
son for this move. The weekly govern
ment report in its summary led to be-
lief in Improvement from recent rains
but it's detailed report was about as
poor as could be. The trade large guam
titles of long Januarys came ON the
market all day. A better demand was
predicted on the belief that the South
ern markets would resist any further
decline. Outside buying was rather
more in evidence on expectation of a
rally, but not aggressive.

New York. Sept. 9.-Sinee the pub
ncatlon OF the monthly report of the
Ohlled states government on the cot
ton crop, the most vigorous, substIe
and insidious efforts have been made
10 nuilify the effect of that report and
unduty depress the value of cotton.
These efforts have emanated for the
most part from brokers and manipu-
.!ators identified with concerns whose
business ii is to purchase cotton in
the South for export, and it has been
plain that their efforts were intended
TO depreciate the price of spot cotton
IN the South by artificially depressing
futures in New York. They have had
the audacity to attempt to discredit no
less an authority than the United
states government. They have circu-
lated false reports that | was selling
out the cotton which L have bought and
acting in bad faith toward the people
OF the South by advising them to buy,
While l was selling. They have endeav-
ored to stampede the market by en-
phasizing the fact that receipts are
large, While 1t is well known that large
receipts early in the season are in
yariably indicative of small and
drought-shertened crop. The course
OF the market to-day shows that their
efforts have failed, and / now feel con-
ildent that fresh advance is impend-
ing which will probably carry prices
much nearer to cents than they have
previously been
The following propositions with re-
gard to the cotton situation l hold to
be self-eyident:
The indicated crop, according to all
accepted authorities, is decidedly less
than last year.
The indicated consumption, accord
ing to all accepted authorities, is H.
100000 bales.
The certihcated stock of cotton in
New York, available for delivery on
contract, is this evening only $4,000
bales.
Futures in New York at present
prices are no higher than the price
of middling cotton in almost all the
Southern markets tributary to New
York. While the cost of bringing such
cotton to New York and delivering it
on contract is not less than half
cent per pound.
The short interest is enormous, and
spinners are practically bare of stock
for their immediate requirements.
The consumption of Southern mills
chiefly located in the states of Vir-
ginia, North Carolina, South Carolina
and Georgia, for the current year, will
not be less than 100000 bales The
production of the states in which these
mills are located will be only about e
100000 bales. The difference of 50O,O
bales is much less than was last year
exported from the port of Savannah
alone. The relation of the New York
market to the Southern markets and
the trade at large is becoming more
and more artificial each year, and
those who permit themselves to be
short in the New York market are
in my opinion making a serious mis-
take.
The Southern holder and producer
will do well to disregard the manipu-
lated fluctuations of an artificial mar
ket, and governing himself by the COM
mercial law of supply and demand,
is justified in demanding and receiv-
ing at least 8 cents per pound for this
years crop of cotton.-ad

shortly after the opening all to-day S
COWS was favorable to higher prices
IN the cotton markets. About midday
tho prices showed a tendency to ad-
,ance. and later material gains were
soored and maintained. New York
closed 1905 points above yesterday,
and New Orleans IL up on August, and
ls614 up on other positions.
noticeable feature of to-day's rise
in cotton was the apparent absence of
manipulation by the bull syndicate or
other speculative interests. The buy
ing seemed to be well distributed be-
tween Europe, the South and Wall
street, which is not often the case
unless conditions are real upon which
the market strength is based. The
spot demand was fairly good, and this,
too, helped futures. The buying was
largely due to the unfavorable wealth
e. reports. Damaging rains were re-
ported in Georgia, where the cotton is
being discolored by heavy precipita-
tons.
Another important bullish factor was
the weekly government report, which
confirmed to some extent previous es-
Inmates of a short crop for Texas.
