CLOSED AT MODERATE GAIN

New york, December 1.-THE cotton
market showed still less activity sales
for the day being estimated at about
$50 900 bales. Fluctuations were very ir-
regular. but the market in the main show
ed a steadier tone, and the closing was
at a moderate gain for the day.
The market opened firm at an advance
of 7a15 points in response to firmer cables
than expected. Liverpool was due to re-
port a decline of about 2a3 points. but
influenced by speculative offerings from
the south, was to 4 points higher at
the hour of local opening After gaining
point or two on some positions there
was a renewal of bear pressure locally and
fluctuations during the morning were
very irregular, with prices averaging
about the opening figures or slightly
lower. Shortly after midday there was a
hard drive bv leading bear interests and
with New Orleans selling, a break to
nearly the closing level of the previous
day was secured. At this level there was
heavy buying, credited TO the account of
the Wall street leader, and the mar
ket in the later trading was also steadied
by reports of very heavy exports, which
reached nearly a hundred thousand bales
and steadier southern spot markets. The
close was very steady at a net gain Of
12a17 points.
Receipts at the ports today 81 ,S62

BY II. & II. Beer.
New Orleans, December 7.-Awaiting
further developments as to whether or
not the south is to meet the decline in
futures at Liverpool, was some steadier
than expected today, contracts closing at
advance of three to four points and spots
advanced to 422d, on sales-6O0O bales.
American markets at the opening were
favorably Influenced in the same direc-
ton, New Orleans ten higher than last
nights closing, March ITO against 60, af-
forwards selling 7.75. In early hours local
spot market reported 1-16 to 1-8 higher
to buy. Texas wired to he effect that
mass meetings would be held in every
county of the state on December II, also
in Oklahoma and Indian Territory. The
object OF these meetings is to advise
farmers In the southwest not to part
with cotton at present prices but to
hold for higher prices. This move was
thought well of and it is hoped that the
central and eastern states of the belt
will follow the example of farmers In the
western belt. The spinner is a shrewd
buyer generally keeping out Of the mar
ket whenever 1t was working in his favor,
and in thisc oshrend ntrenl ntleuedle
and in this connection It is only nee
essary to refer to larger business trans
acted prior to December 1, when the mar
ket was above cents, and to his almost
entire absence from the market since
the decline set in. BY refusing to buy
at a reduction in values of $40 per bale,
the spinner hopes to weaken the position
of the spot holder all the more, knowing
full we'll that they, the farmers, will be
obliged to make new arrangements to
carry their cotton or sacrifice same at
prevailing quotations.

cothran q Co.'S Market Letter.

The market made several feeble efforts
to resist the pressure being exerted from
all directions. but the success was not
certain. After January had recovered to
TO the price declined to 7.5S again.
1t was a subject of congratulation that
the market did not continue its democrat
ization. Even halt helped things tre-
mendously. Traders were afraid of a run
ming break In the south and another
collapse here. With the most inflama-
tory literature being circulated regard
ing the Generalization and panic that
are now on and everything Is being
done to shake confidence to help the bear
cause the halt In the break is welcome
relief
1t is one thing to talk bear at 10 cents
and it is quite another to add fuel to the
flames when wild fire is on at TX cents
There is Generalization in the spinning
industry but 1t will not last long. Prices
will soon strike level where business
VIII resume and the big crop will be look
ed after without any such wholesale de-
moralization as is being talked of In
some circles. Cotton will go too low
as 1t went too high last year.
