lI5y special Leased WleI
 Liverpool today reported spots points lower and deliveries a shade higher which to the casual observer signifies nothing more than a reluctance on the part of foreign traders to commit themselves eX- tensively to either side of the market while so much uncertainty existed as to the effect that the approaching bureau will exert. In fact. this same considera- tion served to establish a quiet tone in definite tendency was manifested by the narrow range of fluctuations
 Trading consisted chiefly of the usual half holiday covering but prices held rather steady. Closing quotations are about points lower than yesterday. Cn- til the agricultural bureau has presented it's estimate of the crop. the market is not likely to move energetically in any direction.
 Some traders fear that the recent exte2- sive criticism of the bureau reports may cause a more liberal allowance by that department for exaggeration of crop dam age in computing its statement of the to- tai yield. in which event values are ex- pected to receive a blow of more or less severity, meanwhile the decline in the value of silver is exercising an unfavor- able effect on trade with China, and se riously interferes with the volume of bus mess in cotton goods with that country. but such a matter will seek adjustment through the force of necessity and it may not be wise to lay too much stress upon immediate conditions in the celes- tial empire.
 Taking everything into account, how ever we are rather inclined to the view that idleness will be the best policy for those not at present committed to the market until the buerau has spent it's force.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1902-11-30

Operators are averse to taking any de- cided stand on the market pending the issuance of the bureaus estimate on De- cember g. as it is conceded by every one that it will be sensationally small, pre- dicated on the former figures issued by this department on October 3. The gen eral average condition given by the bu- reau was 5S3 per cent against 61.4 last year, a decrease of 3.1 per cent or about per cent less than last year. conse- Quently if on condition of GA per cent and practically the same acreage the bu- reau on December last year made an estimate of 9,6o0. coo on a condition of 5S.3 this year it ought to be per cent less indicating an estim"'e of 9.120,0O0 There fore, it will be SC ~ from the data pre- viously given by the bureau was 5S.3 per 3.1 points or about per cent less than last year. Consequently if. on a condi- ton of 61.4 per cent and practically the same average the bureau on December 3 on a condition of 5S.3 therefore 1t ought to be oer cent less, indicating an esti- mate 9,120.000. Therefore. it will be seen fl om the data previously given by the bureau, why the trade believe their estimate will be very small. The general opinion is that this why under 1000 900 If the bureaus estimate of last year is cal culated on the net weights of 4SS 1-5 per bale as given by them and compared to the actual weights their estimate was g, 100000 or 100000 less than the actual out-turn; in other words the figures is- sued by the bureau last year were the more than incorrect mis leading and gave a great deal of dissatisfaction so much so that the leading papers of the coun- try took up the issue and endeavored to get some reasonable explanation from Secretary Wilson. Commenting upon it The Journal of Commerce of New York says: Secretary Wilson appears to rest satisfied in the supposition that his re- ports please the growers while the large number of dealers. consumers and others interested in cotton. seem to be entirely ested in having reliable information for inaccurate reports react upon him, but this fact Is also apparently forgotten in the rush to satisfy the grower"
 The sharp decline In silver is superin- ducing much uneasiness as it reduces the demand for the textile goods to a mini- , mum from China. and all countries on a silver basis.

New York. Nov. 29.-Coming on the heels of killing frost over the greater portion of the South yesterday and the day before, the forecast for showers or rain issued today was not very encour- aging to the bear element who have been loudly claiming that killing frost would prove of great advantage if followed by fair weather Cables today were satis- factory since they showed a slight gain in the face of determined efforts of local bears to elevate an adverse sentiment at Liverpool as regards to the top crop. That qustion is now settled in the minds of the best people, nevertheless extreme bears are reluctant to admit this and are hanging on the vast amount of cotton yet to be marketed. The weekly reports of ,he various trade journals were of no special significance People are waiting for the bureau report of next week which Is expected to be a bullish as the report of December 30 last year. Cotton pos sesses decided merit "t the present time and the fact will SOU 'ognized since there is nothing W. to indicate that the yield will prov S pig one while it may prove quite inadequate. Prices opened with slightly easier tone for the distant months. The market showed little animation but developed strength as the day advanced. A small estimate for Houston imparted strength. Receipts at all ports were estimated at 6000O against 56000 last year.

New York. Nov. 2s.-The cotton market opened steady at a decline of points 10 an advance of point cables showing up in better shape than had been expected, in view of the weakness shown by our market yesterday. Private cables lndi- cated uneasiness in Europe as to the showing to be made by the crop report or the Agricultural Department next Wed nesday. Business was very slack at New York this morning and the professional traders started in to raid the market but changed front again on indications of light receipts, Houston estimating 4.OO0 to 5000 bales for Monday. against s,s67 last week. The bears claimed that the light receipts were due to bad weather and a scarcity of motive power. There Is. how, ever. at present little disposition to sell for short account in view of the recent bad weather. which many believe has also fixed the limit of top crop growth, leaving the climatic conditions to bear only upon the question of picking work and the flow of receipts. There was { point rally soon. after the call. which was helped by advices of firm spot mar kets in the South and indications that the local market was having support In the way of demand from spot houses for the nearer positions,
