MARKETS FOR FUTURES CENSUS REPORT FALLS AB- " SoLUTELY FLAT. The Trade Had Been Expecting an Estimate on That Yet to Be

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-The cotton market 0nsned firm at an advance of 60 8 points and session since the spectacular days of last July. Attention was centered entirely on the sinners report due at midday. and ordinary market had been rather lower than due, had rallied and joined in the general excitement. while New Orleans opened firm and higher under of sSs Su pOol n that market uaT s'' who r %ers bidding for large blocks all along the line. Locally the noise and confusion were beyond Ing one another to reach the ring and every body almost seemed to be buying cotton ex: cept the big longs who sold very heavily. Not ftiAl burst of covering and buying for outside MccountB carried the market up to Q net advance of l30lo points with March selling within points of the Pc mark. Then covering be- came slightly less pressing and realizing con- 2fnuing, the market eased of slightly with the noon bid about 6G9 points net higher. At 9hs census bureau. which fell absolutely fiat. The trade had been expecting an estimate of the amount of cotton remaining to be ginned. but was disappointed in this respect and there was also at first some misunderstanding to whether bales were commercial or 500 pounds.
 Without the estimate of cotton stili to be ehe probable crop and frs prices after the reading of the report were practically un- chan9ed from the I2 o'clock bids. After this there was a decline under realizing and at one time the market was net 6@8 points lower on the active months Leading bull interests were Ro0d buyers on the decline however, protest ing their confidence in e bullish crop estimate tomorrow and the market was rallied. During the balance of the session 1t ruled rather ir- regular. but very steady and closed very steady net unchanged to points higher. Sales were estimated at I.2o0. 900 bales. The weather ov, the belt was rather unsettled and port receipts fell below estimates with exports rather light and estimates for tomorrow's re- ceipts at leading points heavy on the average.

Chicago Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO, Dec, 2.-An increased worlds visible supply, small clearances, together with large primary receipts brought out liberal commission house selling of wheat today. All though the ma ket received some support from the principal bull operator. the close was easy, May being off S9lse. May corn was Ap9sc higher. oats were k6hc higher and January provisions from 2la to loc higher.
 Liberal buying of May wheat by the leading long caused a firm feeling early. the opening being shade lower to BdAc higher at sos G9lh Commission houses took advantage or the slight advance and sold freely and this was followed by selling by local traders. While the big long open buyer during the first part of the session reports were circulated that he was selling through brokers, which started increased selling movement, which resulted in weakening the market. May de- clined to 9ok. The domestic situation was less bullsh than of late, primary receipts being larger, clearances small and outside markets easier
 Scarcity of offerings with good demand from shorts created a demand for corn Com mission houses were liberal buyers, but selling

 NEW ORLEANS. Dec. 2.-Foreign cables this morning indicated . state of restiessness amongst traders abroad and some further anx- iety on the part of shorts to extricate them- selves while an opportunity was at hand. It seems that forward shipments contracted for months ago with some interior shippers have failed to reach their destinations from some cause or other and the purchaser abroad is growing impatient over the delay. The census report absorbed attention here, but proved of little value to the trade since it gave no clue as to the quantity of cotton remaining to be ginned. The figures simply showed that G. sl5.l62 square bales (ncludins two round bales for one square bale) had been ginned up to Nov. 18th No percentage of the crop ginned was given and no other data furnished. owing to the absence of comparisons with last year, when the report was complied in Co., tober, one month earlier. The Agricultural Bu- reau is now looked to for definite figures on the crop. The majority of traders Incline to the belief that a small estimate will be an- nounced. but opinions this point are mere guess york. By noon tomorrow some of the mystery will be cleared and meanwhile it is useless to attempt to predict the nature or tent of the shock that is likely to be observed.

NEW YORK. Dec 2-A series of spectacu- lar developments continued in evidence in the cotton future market today. The fluctuations were highly cratic and they were extremely were pushing and clamoring in their wild rush to buy or sell cotton and not a few or ders went thrilled. Tremendous interests were involved. The trade was extraordinarily ac- tive, and close observers stated that never before has there been such a tremendous line of people standing about ready to win or lose on Government crop report. On the higher prices recorded during the forenoon there was heavy realizing for the account of satisfied longs and this selling brought about moder- ate reactions, However, the bulk of the cotton was well taken. The Southern advices were quite sensational, indicating an excited mar ket with professionals in absolute control The attention. The report indicated that up to Nov. i4th 7.o7o.437 bales had been Einned. The report included 5l0,S5o round bales and figuring these at half bales the total was brought down to 6.9l 5,l62 bales against g. ee6. 800. The report when 1t was Issued was seller many outsiders dropped big blocks of cotton. The market broke badly. On the lower
 levels, however, there was fresh buying and quick advance ensued. The late market was extremely cratic, The fluctuations were nerv-
 ous and feverish and price movements on the
 throughout the day and the Government figures overshadowed all other features. The statistics generally attracted but little atten- ton. On the close professional interests were largely in control and 1t plain to see that the recognized bull clements were not stronghold. Consequently indications pointed to continued feverish price variations. Esti- mated port receipts for the day were 62, 900, against 5S, $50 for the same day last year.

Death of Mrs. BeaIs.

This community was again saddened
by the death of another elderly neighbor,
Mrs. ]. M. Beals. who had been away
from home but few weeks, hoping that
short stay in Massachusetts might i'm
prove her feeble condition. She was
very estimable lady and had resided here
40 years. When younger and in health
she was an active and devoted member
OF the Methodist church. Her husband,
James Beals, died about 81 years ago
from the effects of an accident while NOV
ing his sugar house. Eight children sur.
vive her, five daughters and three sons.
Two of the sons are living in the west
and Arthur Beals resides near her home
at this place. All with one exception are
married. Her eldest, soldier boy, died
at the commencement of the war in 1861,
and was brought here for burial in the
family lot. The floral offerings were pro-
fuse and very beautiful. Many were gifts
OF friends in Massachusetts. AS she had
been a partial invalid for a number of
years, it had been her delight and pastime
to cultivate flowers and her garden was
the admiration of passers by. Her death
will be deeply felt and the family have
the sympathy of all. Rev. John I hurston
conducted the services at her late home
Thursday afternoon.
