Cotton Letter.

Raleigh. N. c., Jan. 22.-The market has
a, length worked into new ground and
as is usual under these conditions, pro-
fecsionais have been active BUYERS. As
soon as May crossed 1926, the previous
high point, large blocks were bought con
fdentIv for over 15c. This line of reason
ing seldom. if ever fails, and all opin
ions are put in the background as soon
as the reading of the tape shows the
signs of the times. After the market
crossed 1925 it required little experience
with speculative markets to decide that
the market would work considerably high
en- This it has done, and while specula-
ton has not been on broad scale, the
interests in control of the situation have
been able to take all the cotton and keep
the upward movement in progress. The
situation has now passed beyond the
scope of ideas aud opinions. Prices are at
a figure where almost anything may hap
pen at any time. It Is not that there is
any change in the position. On the con
trary, cotton is as strongly held today
as it was three cents a pound lower.
But whea values reach a point where the
consumption of the world is being daily
reduced, then those who are bulling
staple must begin to reckon with that
almost understandable law Of supply and
demand There will soon be an effort Oh
the part of the larger holders to estimate
the price at which cotton can no longer
be taken for ordinary purposes. The poini
beyond which prices would be imitation.
We are glad TO say that very healthy
inclination to take profits exists in com
mission house circles. While knowing
that the prices are likely to be higher,
holders have taken advantage of the ad-
vance 30 cash in. We cannot advise
speculative buying above lac. We can see
as readily as anyone in the trade that in
the event of the crop Of 10000.000 bales
we can have 16 or lie cotton. but this
price is to be obtained by the larger
spectators and by the holder of actual
cotton. 1t is not an aim for when the
marginal Spectator should strive. Since
the market started in September until
Just before the price reached lac on the
last advance, we have endeavored to call
attention to the merits of cotton as a
basis of bull speculation. From now on
regardless of conditions or news, or de-
velopments of any kind. we do not
to advise anyone to buy cotton at f5c. AT
ter steady rise of six cents a pound the
advance may eliminate like a thief in
the night. Cotton as now ceased to be
attractive as a field for conservative
investment.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Jan. 22.-Another day OF ac-
tive and varied trading in stocks marked
the progress of the speculative campaign
taken up in the last few days. The man
ner in which enormous blocks of stocks
in thousands of shares were hurled from
one portion of the market to another was
sufficient evidence that the leadership of
the market was in daring and powerful
hands. The popular supposition was that
the newly active party in the stock mark
ct included speculative elements that
have been prominent in cotton and in
grain during the recent activity in those
markets, and that something like a pool
had been arranged by which these vari-
Gus elements were acting in concert to
lift the prices of stocks to their own
profit. Late in the day a reactionary
tendency became fairly general under the
weigh of the selling to realize and the
level of prices receded materially from
the highest. The late selling was some
what aggravated by the report of a bank
ing failure in Cleveland and the down
ward tendency. was not very effectually
arrested before the close. which was I'M
steady. The force OF another favorable
Dank statement tor tomorrow did not
serve to sustain the late market. as
such showing has been counted upon
through the week, owing to the extreme
case OF money. Estimates of the gain in
cash is reckoned all the way from eight
to thirteen million dollars from all
sources.

NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, Jan. 22-The cotton mar
ket opened strong at an advance OF TO
9; points, following cables that were sen-
sationally strong, particularly in regard
TO spot cotton, estimates pointing to-
ward continued light receipts and re-
ports of good demand for spot cotton
ia the South at the higher prices.
At first the market was exceedingly
active, and tremendously excited with a
better supply of outside buying orders
than for days past. On the other hand
the initial advances bringing the active
months to nearly fifteen cents caused
heavy liquidation.
1t was rumored on the call that the
local bull leader was selling and for the
first ten minutes or so the market showed
a reactionary tendency. But soon TIL;
market was rallied and before the end
OF the first hour July had sold at 15c.
Trading became less active as the ses-
sion progressed, due in part no doubt, to
the poor wire service in all directions,
but while there were frequent intervals
when liquidation would depress prices a
few points, the market generally-speaking
ruled very firm with March selling up To
14.75; May to 1895. and July to 1903.
These prices were a net advance'On the
POSITIONS named of % to 25 points. The
liquidation attracted. however. was not
sufficient to force a materially lower level,
and the market while finally barely
steady was within a few points of the
best and net IL to 80 points higher on
the general list.
Sales were estimated at 100000 bales.
The advances were encouraged by the
end week statistical showing which in
dicated an in sight for the week below
early estimates while the total crop in
sight for the session is now about 10000
