Cotton Letter.

Especial to News and Observer)
New York, March 1.-THE market
continued quiet today. An overflow of
the river was reported at one point, and
predictions were anything but favorable
All the moAing there was a surprising
absence of cotton for sale, and while
the demand was not heavy enough, cotton
seemed to be wanted to hold prices
Either the bulls have sold enough and
are willing to let the market take it's
course, or there is a lot OF May coming
from other quarters. We are informed
from very reliable sources that the pool
will ask for the delivery of cotton on
May. This is a very important piece of
news if true 1t may be circulated to
help the market but it came in way to
give us confidence in it's trustworthiness
We would not operate in May cotton.
We would only sell August on good
bulges and would not be in q hurry to
sell as long as flood danger exists. No
break of Importance can be expected as
long as receipts are light. The move
ment must keep small as long as
weather is bad, There is a big long in
terest concentrated, but no scattered in
terest of Importance. AS long as the
big holders are not willing to sell, there
is no pressure, as commission houses are
pretty well sold out. If receipts fail to
show UP later in the season. this makes
a very strong position. But the price
is a high one at present time and spinners
have practically withdrawn from the
market. There are big gambling opera
items going on in all markets and the
bulls will keep at it until someone is
badly hurt. For the present, however,
things are queting down considerably
and without a flood We should have a
quiet market. As August works towards
see this option should be sold. We
would only sell on bulges.
Cotton futures ranged today as fol-
lows:

New York, March 1.-THE cotton mar
ket opened quiet and firm at unchanged
prices to an advance of two points. At
ter the call it displayed some little ir-
regularity. but trading generally was
quiet and fluctuations narrow, with the
tendency of prices upward under cover
ing by shorts and fresh support by the
bull party. The cable news was with
out special influence although the Liver
pool market, closing net half point
lower to one point higher, furnished a
better response to the New York mar
ket on Monday than had been considered
likely while the port receipts for the
day were light, amounting to only 1897

Cotton Letter.
Especial to News and Observer


New York, Feb 26.-There was less
cotton for sale at ten cents this morn
ing than at nine cents month ago.
The oldest men in the business are
standing around the pit saying what
does it all mean" And no one is able
to answer them. One would think we
had a crop of about nine million bales
by the way cotton is being bought at
these prices. The fever is one of those
inexplicable things in speculation that
has run it's course. A rational view is
to let the market run its course. Those
who are long can keep their stop loss
orders on and let the market go. If cot
ton is going to ten and q half cents. or
eleven cents, let it go. This advance
may be legitimate thing, but we have
yet to find ten cent cotton a safe thing
to buy. This big speculation by few
men is a money making thing while it
lasts, but it's serious business when they
attempt to sell. Weather in the South
is very bad 1t must get better some
day There is nothing to break cotton
on until receipts are much larger or
until the clique start to unload. It's
the most sensational market in ten or
fifteen years, and without precedent to
go on. We cannot advise trading under
such abnormal conditions.
Cotton futures today ranged as follows:

Sentiment continues extremely favorable

still with the manipulation going on in

a covering movement among room trad
ers who have been lighting the markets
since it was around $50 for May. In fact
the talent, not only here, but everywhere,
have been caught short and it may be
safely said that the short interest today
is larger than at any time since the

and yarns are advancing rapidly, so that
the demand for actual cotton from spin
ners is just as active today as it was
month ago, consumption not being
check by union for the reason that
spinners' products have advanced more

conditions continue there can be but
slight reactions and as the present price

July contracts in the very near future.
