cent over last year. Stocks in New York
are being rapidly depleted and spot mar
kets in the south will have to break a
cent, and in some cases a cent and a
quarter, to allow cotton to come to New
York to take the place of that being
moved out
Seven and half cents for January cot
ton is more than reasonable. 1t would be
reasonable on an 1000 00O-bale crop, yet
there is nothing to indicate the size of
the crop and two weeks of warm wealth
err now would do no end of damage.
Early frosts would play havoc with the
crop. A big lot of cotton will be needed
to fill holes after last years prices. We
cannot change our position at the mo-
ment. Too much depends on a big crop
this year. Short selling may be very
dangerous, and the gain at best will be
small. We would continue to buy on all
weak spots and simply scalp the market
until we know mora about the crop.

Murphy & Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New August 12---There was nothing In
early cotton this morning either to en-
courage extensive buying or selling
Scalpers awaited themselves OF the alb
sence of demonstrations on the part Of
recent leaders to step in now and then
prices opened / to 4 points higher. De-
spite the dullness. friends of cotton were
numerous and confident. It was intimated
that the Carolnas and Georgia were
deteriorating rapidly and bulls used this
with some little effect after the opening
in discouraging parties who were In
clined to operate on the short side, and
who feared that the weekly government
report would prove less bearish than
looked for and possibly rather bullish.
Receipts give signs Of swelling to large
proportions by the close of the month,
but the more conservative element be-
lieve the market should do much better
regardless Of size of crop. simply be-
cause the worlds takings will be enor-
nous as the season advances Hous-
ton received $500 bales of new cotton
against 1000 last year. The days receipts
at ports were 1900 against $500 last year.
The stock of certificated cotton at New
York today has been reduced to $1,000
bales. The weekly government report
was as bullish as bearish and fell fiat
on the market.

Chicago, August 12.-Today was a bull
day In both grains and provisions and
everything went up. Hhe government
crop report which was a disappointment
to the bears was the cause for the upturn.
Shorts were frightened and covered freely
in everything. Sellers were scarce in
wheat and in spite of good crop condi-
tons the drisk demand to secure profits,
especially in corn, sent wheat up &c and
corn advanced 2ss. At the close Septem-
