weather over Sunday, occasioned
steadier feeling, making a net loss of 1

pected to run light during the week,
owing to the restricted spot demand. The
best posted operators, though, are watch
ing the weather closely, believing that
the conditions existing are daily adding
largely to the yield. The absence OF

to again increase their crop estimates.

Tempera lures are higher than
usual at this season of the
ranged as follows: Temperatures are
higher than usual at this season of the
year and this has a great deal to do
with the advance of an active specula-
tion To this absence of an active specu-
lation is to be attributed the future of
prices the advance on an estimate of 10,-
600 bales at Houston for Monday, as
compared with q 900 bales last year. The
movement is small enough to put the
market up, but it does not go up. This
is not a good sign. The movement the
coming week will compare with $780, 900
bales last year, and will lose all the way
from $4,000 to 100000 bales. This is like
ly TO hold the market. But after that the
movement falls off sharply and it is nos
impossible that this year we will see
some increase. If the market Wont go
up on small receipts we are beginning
to be afraid it will go down when r.
ceipts increat1. At least we would ad-
wise great caution at the moment and
would buy and sell for turns rather than
buy to hold at the level. There is very
little trade and this at the present sea-
son is likely to cause sagging mar
ket The big long interest in January
cotton here remains intact and that is
as much an adverse factor as anything
else 1t is we'll enough to talk ABOUT
receiving 100000 bales on January and
leaving $1,000 bales long interest to
squeeze the shorts. But it takes a pile
of money 10 run a deal of this kind and
should the crop turn out larger than eX-
pected, as likely under present high tenn
peratures the load may prove too much.
Manipulation is always bad and the mar
ket is not in the shape we would like
to see it to advise free buying of cotton.
At best the course of prices will be
irregular. For the most part therefore
scalping operations are preferred TO IL
vestment purchases. The market today
was dull in the extreme. But the tone
ruled steady rather than otherwise.
