ment indicated by on
cinl Figures.

New York, Dec 5.-After a nights
reflection the government crop report
did not seem to appeal any less bullish
to the cotton trade. At any rate, the
market opened firm and ruled very
active and excited First prices were
at an advance Of to 20 points. with
all the months selling at new high
record prices for the season on cables
that were even better than due, re-
ilecting q very bullish Interpretation
Of the government crop estimate by the
English trade
Following the call here there was
tremendous realizing, but there was
also tremendous covering and bull sup
port, and fluctuations were so extreme
" rapid and violent that it was almost
impossible to tell whether the market
was up or down from one minute to an
other.
One of the active months would be
selling down while another was selling
up, and, taken altogether, it was one
of the most erratic mornings of the sea
son. 1t seemed for a time after the
opening as though offerings were a lit
tie too heavy for the buying power, but
the market had soon rallied again to
about the opening prices.
sully's Judgment Vindicated.
The publication of the governments
estimate Of this years cotton crop,
showing it to be less than 100000
bales, which was lower than many Of
the private estimates was Of course
regarded as a complete vindication Of
the consistent attitude that has been
maintained BY the bull leaders on the
cotton market during the last few
months and particularly of the judg-
ment Of D. J. Sully. The governments
estimate placed the crop at 9.962, 439
bales. Mr. Sully's estimate was 9,99S,
600, or just 25,000 bales more than the
governments figures Other private
estimates varied between 10,250000
and II 100000 bales The closeness Of
Mr.. Sully's figures to those Of the gov
eminent bureau was therefore consid-
cred a rather remarkable feat
