pure and simple. They are trying or have
tried to run a corner. A pile Of the jan
uary was sold out on the smash some
time ago. There is enough long cotton
left to create some trouble If nothing
comes here in the way of cotton before
the end of January and shorts get ner-
vous.
But there Is every probability that some
10000 or 100000 bales of cotton will be
forthcoming If they really feel their hap
piness depends upon getting all that cot
ton. We have been in the business some
years and we have yet to see a specula-
tive deal where the people really came up
and took the cotton when the time came.
There Is too much air and wind about
this deal; too much time given people to
prepare for it. It savors of the rdieu-
lous. The market is still disappointing.
We don't like the way things stand today
and are not willing to advise purchases
On the other hand we still feel that cot
ton should be sold on every advance and
only bought on good breaks.

New orleans cotton Market.

New Orleans, December 1S.-Spot cotton
was steady and factors were offering
freely at quotations. but the purchasing
element showed some disposition to hold
off as Liverpool's attitude was far from
encouraging. Offerings To-Day were moder-
ately large and fairly well assorted,
though the best grades are somewhat
scarce and command prices rather fuller
than those obtaining for the medium and
low grades. Sales $500 bales. including 700
to arrive. Quotations unchanged.
The trading in futures was not large.
December, May and June opened down l
point each, while the other months stood
unchanged and thereafter the market
eased off few points, the board at the

Cotton Letter,

C. W. Lee & Co.'s letter to Cothran 6.
Company:
New York, December 1s.-There is a
great deal of rubbist being published
about the January deal in cotton Talk
Of a million bales long cotton held by
the pool and three-quarters of it still in
tact can be accepted as about as myth
cal as such stories usually are. The sim
pie facts in the case have been set forth
frequently in these letters, and we be-
lieve the facts are no more to be con-
strued in favor of an advance than In
favor of a decline. 1t is all well enough
to talk about millions of money behind
the deal and inability of shorts to get
cotton. That may and may not be. Let
us see what we know. There is the best
spot house in the country, with reputa-
ton that could bring them IN millions of
dollars in twenty-four hours, long of De-
cember and owners of the spot cotton
1t is generally believed these people are
long of March at the discount and short
of January. We do not for one moment
believe they are committed to deliver
more January cotton than they possess
of the actual stun. This cotton will
doubtless be rendered on January and
taken back on March. Now on the other
side we have an interest supposed to be
represented by people of speculative ten
denotes. This is for speculative account

COTTON MARKET
HAS STEADY TONE
Opened Quiet and Unchanged
TO Advance of 3 Points
PORT RECEIPTS INCREASE
Selling Today Was Led BY a PhlladeI-
phia Concern Having Large Ship
ping and Export Connections
and Large Local Following.

New York December 1s-The cotton
market opened quiet and unchanged to
an advance of points. For a time 1t
ruled steadier gaining another point on
some of the more active positions, but
again selling off to level to points
under the previous figures on which
basis the market closed quiet and steady
The easier ruling of the market was
largely due to an increase in port re-
ceipts, which were 40,S09 bales, against
IS, 743 bales last week. and 80, 932 last year
considerably larger also than the move
ment during the corresponding week for
four previous years. While receipts were
expanding, exports failed to materiallze
to the predicted extent, being 2S,193 bales
which brings the amount for the season
up to 3,O47.51 bales, against 31O1,5o5 last
year for the corresponding period To
make claims maintained at the begin
ming of the month good, clearances
should now be upon a record scale. The
disappointment in this respect was fac
tor in the selling movement, which caus-
ed today's decline, in connection with
moderate inquiry from exporters and
spinners for spot cotton in. the south.
while the New York market declined 5
points for spot cotton The selling today
was led by a Philadelphia concern shav-
ing large shipping and export connec-
lions and large local following which also
sold, but to more moderate degrees. The
market was left small with a weaker UNI
dertone. Total sales estimated at $780,
900 bales.
