COTTON.

Spot cotton opened quiet, sales, 592
bales, and closed quiet and unchanged
at the monday call, sales, SO bales, and
for the day, 62S bales. The demand was
fair, though a disposition to hesitate
was manifest, and the day closed with
out event. During the early hours
brokers representing large exporters
were on the lookout for cotton but
they saw the New York market yield
ing, and, therefore, withheld from the
local market in the hope of getting the
cotton they wanted at lower prices.
However, the New York market turn
ed and again started upward around
the close, with the last prices showing
good recovery of the previous losses.
In the f. o. b. market the demand
was fairly good, and considerable BUSH
ness was done. The country still show
ed a disposition to remain out of the
market, however, with the hope that
prices will later in the month show a
further hardening tendency. Others be-
lieve that the advance has about gone
its limit, and seem disposed to sell.
The prevailing prices for basis good

tatons, were II 7-16@12kc.

COTTON FUTURES.

New York. Dec. 5.-Sentiment before
the opening Of the cotton market to-
day seemed to favor reaction, owing to
the argument that outstanding ac-
counts had probably been pretty we'll
evened up, while cables were distinct
ly below expectations. and the out
look was for heavy receipts. Rejecting
this, the market opened steady at
net loss of 3@15 points. A good de-
mand developed at the lower level,
however, and while realizing continued
heavy offerings were promptly absorb
ed and prices rallied to about last
nights finals. Trading was fairly ac-
tive, but fluctuations comparatively
narrow. After showing at one time
d net gain Of about l to 4 points, the
market eased off little toward the
close under realizing, and was finally
steady net, 8 points lower to 4 points
higher. Sales were estimated at $780,
900 bales.
Estimated receipts of cotton at ports
to-day, 54,905 bales, against 74,784 last
week and 1888 last year. For the week,

a slump of % or 30 points would in
duce a buying wave that would send
prices we'll uo toward the 15c mark.
In the trading, which was compare

Not n great deal of interest was
shown in to-days cotton futures mar
kets, though fluctuations were rather
wide and the bulls were aggressive
when the market showed any reaction
airy tendency. That there is abundant
confidence in the future course of prices
is shown by the readiness of buyers
to grab cotton on it's soft spots. The
New York market closed off to 4 up,
and New Orleans 2@S off
Locally, the demand for spot cotton
was good, with factors backward about
selling. They did not seem disposed
TO enter the market with the cotton
they have on hand, and exporters were
also backward about taking it on the
theory that prices have gone high
enough and a reaction is in order. 1t
is plain to many that the bulls idea
of a reaction will be a small decline,
for the reason that any setback will
bring the public in. From the inte-
rior cotton was being offered sparingly
in Savannah. The holder appears to be
content to wait for a better market.
Turpentine closed firm at soc, with
the demand good and the offerings
about taken. Resins closed firm and

Baxter and Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New York, Dec. 5.-There was a loss
of points in the Liverpool market
to-day. This occasioned no surprise,
inasmuch as both markets have been
advancing so rapidly that it might be
better If we had a reaction. Local
sentiment favors a higher market
based on the certainty of the bureau
figures being not far below the actual
supply. The view is taken that as
soon as the facts are recognized prices
VIII not seem so high, and that the
mere idea that we have been on such
low basis for a long time cannot
avail under the new condition of affairs
resulting FROM growing consumption,
and failure of the crops to make cor
responding increase. Liverpool dur
ing the week gained $4,000 bales for the
total, and $1,000 for the American. Port
receipts were $1,000, against $4,000 last
year. The market eased off at open
ing, owing to big profit taking. 1t was
believed that the movement at an early
date would go off materially, and SELL
ers soon withdrew fearing another big
squirt when least expected. Houston
estimates were large for Monday, but
there was greater disposition to watch
the SPOT situation than the movement.
Estimates for Monday: New Or
leans, 49, 500 to 1850, against 9,0S5 last
year; Galveston, 1850 to $1,000, against
l1371.

with any certainty by manufacturers

The Savannah morning news., 1903-12-06

was welcome change after the two
previous days. 1t was not the quiet
quiet, but simply less excitement than
on Thursday and Friday. This will
give some of the traders chance to
catch up before Monday. 1t is not
generally known that many of us never
left the office Thursday night and the
prospect of days rest tomorrow is
very alluring. The cotton trade gene
rally is simply exhausted after the
turmoil of the week. We hope things
viii quiet down some, as flesh and
blood can not stand this sort of thing
much longer. There are all sorts of
rumors afloat regarding a leak in the
figures, but we do not take much stock
in the rumor. They are circulated
every year. A number of traders bet
on less than 100000, and after the
reports coming in all the fall, the es-
inmate is not surprising. Now take
the Yazoo Cotton Exchange. Last year
they called the crop 1885, 900 and came
within $4,000 bales of the final total.
This year they place the crop at TO-
600, 0O0. All this points to a moderate
crop. Something must be behind a
market which has acted the way this
has this season. No new set of men
nor speculation could do what natural
conditions do. The trade is in a state
of Generalization, and it will require
some time to settle down. If receipts
fall off now on the advance, it will
tend to hold prices. An a break, we
would begin to buy again.
