MORE ACTIVITY IN
THE COTTON MARKET
Finally Stood, However, at
Small Net Loss
DEMAND WAS VERY LIGHT
New Orleans Appeared to Be Sending

Covering and Prices Gradu-
ally Worked Upward.
DEMAND WAS VERY Light

New York, December 9.-The cotton
market showed increased activity owing
largely, 1t would seem. to more gener-
al covering, and perhaps a little buying
for long account. as a result of the
steadier spot situation. though after
having shown fair net gain in the mid
die session, the prices were finally at a
slight net loss for the day.
The opening was easy at a decline Of
six to ten points. or about as due on
the cables which were disappointing.
Liverpool evidently took no stock in the
reports circulated here yesterday, as to
an error in ginners figures.
The local market wiped out yester-
days advances with the opening loss.
but there was a very light demand at
the decline. New Orleans appeared to
be sending buying orders here, Wall street
was covering and with some buying for
moderate turn prices slowly worked
upward. When Secretary Testers tip
for the into-sight was received, the mar
ket took another upward twist and ear
ly in the afternoon was about l0d12 points
above the closing of yesterday. This rep
resented recovery of practically half a
cent from the low level of the week, and
seemed to attract fresh selling by local
bears. SO that during the balance of
the session fluctuations were irregular,
but generally downward. The market
was finally steady at a net loss of 8 to
points.
Sales estimated at 100000 bales. Receipts
at the ports today 1884 bales, against
65,109 last week, and 44,152 last year.
For the week 345.O 600 against Ss7, GIT last
week and 332,3l6 last year. Todays re-
ceipts at New Orleans were 1878 against
2,7S7 last year, and at Houston S,60S
against 1888 last year.

cothran 3. Co.'S Market Letter.

The events Of the week are too gem
orally known to need repetition. The
annual crop estimate of the department
of agriculture was issued on Saturday
showing a yield of 12OOO,0O0 bales and
over, thus up-holding the largest crop
contention and showing that the moder-
ate crop views upon which large por-
tion of trade base been operating were
entirely too small.
The effect upon the market was de-
cided.
Prices erumbled away and January
cotton reached basis of 71s or two halfs
from the price prevailing a few weeks
ago. The effect upon the business OF the
world has been more decided than upon
the future market. Last year. splnners
made the mistake OF buying very little
cotton below 10 cents early in the season
and for their error, they were compelled
to buy at 10 cents and over later on. The
mistake cost consumers millions of money
and instead of buying moderately this
year as would have proved profitable a
year ago, they went In and bought very
heavily at prices they refused to pay
last season.
Now that the crop appears In excess
of all known requirements by perhaps
one million bales, prices have broken
away leaving spinners with raw ma
teriai purchased at comparatively high
figures. 1t was small wonder that the
trade should be demoralzed and that
business should come to a stand-still.
Cotton sold this week at 750 and only
eleven months ago sold on the New York
cotton exchange at 1850 This repre-
sents a decline Of just 10 cents a pound.

All of the late advance of yesterday
was lost at the opening this morning.
Liverpool refused point blank to respond
to the American Improvement OF last
evening, and as Washington officials de-
MED the rumor that an error of 100000
bales had been made In the government
estimate of 12162, 900 bales issued Decem-
Der 3, New Orleans opened at a decline
of about 20 points March f.73 afterwards
selling as low as I'll. The country how
ever held fast and as the banks and
bankers of Texas were heartily In accord
with the movement on foot among hold
ers of spot cotton to withhold their cot
ton from the market. there was more
or less buying of futures after the first
call and as offerings were comparatively
small, the advance did not eliminate UNI
til March touched 7T, about twenty-six
points above the lowest of the day. Lo-
cal spot holders were reported as asking
Mc more for their cotton today, but that
buyers were not willing to pay higher
prices. which conditions tended to re-
strict business. The movement of the
week, 469.563. against 4s9,95S last year, was
rather smaller than generally expected,
as II still left the in sight" thus far this
month behind one year ago. 620,2H COM

September l. figuring 6731, $50, against
