 NEW YORK. Nov. 6.-The cotton future market continued active today. The move ment of prices more or less sensational and at times the list forced upward in record fashion. First prices were 4 points lower on the months. while the gains in some of the far options amounted to l2 points and soon after the opening the general list was l 3@l IS points higher than last nights close. Shorts were excited and eagerly ran for cover There an excellent demand from spot people and the bull element showed aggressiveness under active operations for the account of the several leaders On the firm prices has been the case of late there was heavy selling for the account of tired longs and the increased offerings resulted in some reaction Tn prices. Wall Street interests were credited with being bearsh and the selling from this source attracted considerable atten- tion. The late market fuctuated rather ir- regularly over a rather narrow range and sen timent towards last was rather mixed, The estimated port receipts for the day were figured at SO 900 bales, against 44725 for the same day last year. The in sight Is 543.- 300 for 9o3 against 476 358 for eo2 and 53l .635 for eoI and 465 10 for 1900

Hy.I
 NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 6.-An legitimate factors governing fluctuations in cotton are for the moment lost sight of and the advance was continued today. Trading was on a gi- gantic scale and fluctuations wild. Liverpool was fairly good this morning and this market opened at an advance of about | 6 points the public buying in huge quantities around the opening. With this demand satisfied, and as shorts are nearly all covered the market lost support which in connection with rumors cir culating fin New York while there were no names mentioned. of financial troubles caused an air of uneasiness and the general opinion seems to be that unless wild speculation is checked there is likely to develop some trou- ble Later in the session renewed buying set in carrying prices to about 23 points above last nights close. Receipts are in excess of last season and the movement promises to be heavy. The insight for the week being 543 300. against 476, 359. Stocks at interior towns begin to increase. Spots were marked up l. 6 today. which is not full response to the advance in contracts. We are well disposed towards cotton. but feel that the advance Is too rapid. The effect of the features noted must be felt eventually although while the public continues in present mood opinions as | to the immediate course of prices are of no value. Violent fluctuations be looked for and we advise the most conservative kind of l trading.

rather against the market. The statistical part of the situation though. is entirely ignored as sentiment Is optimistic and the ohiy thing considered is the expectation Of very bullish census report tomorrow It is claimed that the document must necessarily connrIn short crop views and then again the amount ginned up to Oct. I8 this year will show much less quantity than last year owing to the present crop having been three weeks late last year on Nov. 5th the census bureau stated that 5,o26, ,oOO commercial bales had been ginned up to and including Oct. 18th and that this was 60. per cent. of the crop. indicat- ing a total crop of $500, 900 bales. On Jan uary 5th. 1903. the same authority stated that the crop. according to giners. is 9.e96,- 00o and according to canvassing agents of the Government is e.954, 900 bales of an av- craze gross weight of 500 pounds. The report concluded by saying that the census depart ment would accept responsibility for these estimates. On April lst. 1905 the census bureau issued their last estimate. stating that the total production of the crop of 1902 -O3 shows the number of running haes to be l,- 275. 900. equal to io795, 900 commercial bales. counting the round bales as half bales
 November. last year. was 9.9oo, 900; the sec ond. issued in January, from S9, 964, ,OOO to g. o96. GOO. and the third; issued in April TO- 785. 900. The first estimate was SS5. 900 un- der the final figures promulgated in April and the second about sIoooo under Con sequently. while the census bureaus final April estimate of lo,7e5. 900 compared with the actual crop of lo,72s 900 correctly. the two first estimates were nearly 1000. 900 too low. It is argued that the chances are, therefore, in favor of a very small crop being indicated by the census report tomorrow. Still the more conservative element of the trade will add at least 1000. 900 bales to the first estimate issued by this authority. The i'm mense buying which has been going on dur ing the past wek the assumption of the buliishness of this report has probably dis counted 1t in a measure after reviewing the situation it strikes that a conservative policy should be pursued after this sharp and rapid advance a decided reaction may take place when least expected. Under these circumstances advise caution and would suggest purchases only decided breaks

New Orleans Spo: Cotton.

NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 6-Spot cotton was in fair demand, but buyers are kept in a condition of uncertainty account of the steady advance fin prices. making limited buy ing orders difficult to fill Sales. 3. 500 bales, including 600 to arrive. Quotations l-I6 higher.
 In the future market the upward course of prices was continued. At the opening the board showed advance of I9@22 points. Liverpool was somewhat disappointing. but the upward turn in New York quite overbsl- anced all bearish features. Many traders sold short yesterday at the height of the advance. fully expecting that the long-deferred reac- tion would set in this morning and give them handsome profits. Instead of taking profits these shorts were only too glad to cover at heavy losses. Their covering and fresh buy ing by longs supported the market well into the morning when the weight of heavy profit taking began to be felt and prices sagged from I3 to 5 points from the highest levels of the earlier hours. The fluctuations of the day were wide and served S make ideal market for the scalper who has been much fin evidence in the last few days After the liuuidation there a recovery of S6 c points, the list at the close showing net gains of from 22 to 24 points. The trading was heavy.

NEW YORK, Nov. e.-The cotton market opened firm at decline of points on the near positions. which were affected by rather disappointing cables and liquidation at an ad- were influenced by continued bull support and the outlook for cold weather in the western belt Right on the call tthe market became sensationally active and was soon advancing at almost as rapid 6 rate as yesterday with prices fin the first ten or twelve minutes some iS to 5 points higher on active bull support and a fresh furry of shorts who were alarmed over the opening bulge of 20 points in New Orleans and the aggressive attitude of the To- cal bull leader. The advance was also encour- aged by the expectation of a bullish census bureau report on Saturday giving the amount of cotton ginned thus far for the season and the spread of bullish crop news in connec- tion with reports that European spinners were becoming even more active bidders for spot supplies. After the opening spurt, however

A Tribute To- a Coming Nan.

District Attorney Earl Brewer
made a most powerful speech in the
court house ON Tuesday afternoon of
this week. He discussed the political
issues before the people of Mississippi

made a profound impression upon
those who heard him and the court
room was filed and the aisles were
crowded.
Brewer will be one of Mississippi S
great men if he lives.
We predict a brilliant future for
him. When the mantle of some
great leader falls upon him as it will,
he will wear it with distinguished
honor. Hurrah for the man from
