Baxter ana Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New York, Sept. 25.-The recent de-
cline seems to be due chiefly to .he
liquidation by tired holders and is not
owing to the want of confidence' in
prices. The crop is considered by pep
pie who are most competent to judge
as doing just we'll enough not to ex-
coed 100000 and possibly much less
with an early frost. The scare in Wall
street is responsible for the decline in
cotton more than anything else. The
crop is repeatedly stated as so late
that it cannot prove a big one, but
traders have been ignoring this in
disputable fact and are buying for the
moment, misled by the increased move
ment, which seems large because we
have so long received no cotton at all
of consequence. Z The opening was
somewhat better, but the market dis
played hesitation although cables were
more encouraging than expected AT
fairs in Wall street were better after
our opening, thus checking some weak
ness, especially in October. Georgia
crop reports were poor and Texas was
complaining of poor prospects. The
receipts for to-day, were $4,000, against
As, 600 last year. Cables were 1 to 4
lower, Manchester was doing more in
cloths and yarns. Shorts were covering
in the distant months here, and the
liquidation appeared to be over. Esti-

New York, Sept. 25.-The cotton mar

carried the general list downward un-

3@5 points below yesterdays finals had
been reached. On this basis there was
some realizing by shorts and buying on
the reaction theory. The market raj
lied very slowly, however, and after
showing an advance of from. to -
points around midday broke again,
reaching new low level for the ses-
sion under active bear pressure and a
renewal of the tremendous liquidation
that has been going on now for the
last several days and under the in
f1uence Of this September sold down
to 1O.S0c; October to $3.50; December to
9.34c, and January to 935c, this being
the first time this season that a near

there was little rally on all positions
except September on covering and the
market finally steady net loo points

showed a net loss of &c points. Sales

ware & LeIand,s Cotton Letter.

New New, Sept. 25.-In the general
excitement of the week including the
stock and grain markets, cotton has not
beet lacking. The staple continues to
furnish evidences of the peculiar posi-
lions occupied by cotton at the present
time and the absence of anything like
conviction over the supply and demand
problem. The developments of the
week have been more in the nature of
a movement in sympathy with events
outside the situation itself. In other
words prices have declined. not be-
cause there is a conviction that the
crop win be larger than the needs
of the world. but rather because of
crash in stocks and the unloading of
large blocks of speculatively held cot
ton. A feature of dealings in New
York has been the liquidation of cot
ton bought above 10. cents. 1t will
be remembered that market was ad-
vanced from, about 10 cents for Oc-
tober to 1880 mainly by the enor-
nous buying of one or two people. At
The Savannah morning news., 1903-09-26

that time it was predicted that the
buyers were laying up trouble for
themselves. Cotton was sold out this
week at 91sc that cost 1914 cents.
Losses have been enormous and the.
trade generally has suffered for the
lndescretion. 1t is generally known
that large part of cotton was bought
for prominent railroad officer, who
was also believed to be behind the May
operation, and made large amount of
money. The reasons for the selling
were not that cotton was a poor thing
to hold, but that in order to protect
stock cotton had to go overheard. The
officer in question owns a controlling
interest in two or three roads and such
conditions as have prevailed. in Wall
street this week lead to caution in
every direction. The smash in stocks
has happened at time when the Steel
industry appears to be suffering q gen.
eral reaction. 1t is so generally rec
ognized that still in the business baro-
meter that every one has been in
tiuenced by the reports this week.
A chill has been thrown over general
trade. This cannot be denied and for
this reason the spinner is more eau
tious about stacking. up with raw ma
terial at high prices. At the same time
the crop is maturing rapidly and there
is every prospect of a big movement.
The crop reports coming in are very
bad. Texas is not going to make the
crop that was expected. Later on
there may be an entire change in the
cotton situation. by reason of size of
crop. But for the present there is
very unsettled feeling in all diree-
lions, and we would exert our influence
in the way of caution at the moment.
Influences outside the cotton industry
are all against an advance in prices
and the unsettled conditions in Eu-
ropean and domestic finance tend to
make one conservative about buying
anything for bull markets
