RECOVERY IS MADE IN COTTON MARKET Less Activity But the Market
 Was Steady REPORT IS DISAPPOINTING Smaller Shorts Had Been Reckoning On Showing of Slightly Over 12,. ooo,ooo BaIes-Market Closed
 Until Next Tuesday.
REPORT IS DISAPPOINTING

New York, December 8O.-The cotton market was much less active but was steadier on the whole, covering today with a moderate recovery of recent losses. The opening was firm at an advance of 12G20 points which was hardly a full response to the cables reporting an ad- vance of 12913 points for futures, and of IA for spot cotton in the English mar ket, while private cables reported small southern offerings and fresh buying as a cause of the strength
 After the call here there was a gradual renewal of bear pressure, and by midday prices had sagged off to about. or a little under the closing level of yester- day. The final installment of the ginners' report was issued at midday. It was, if anything, a little disappointing to some of the smaller shorts who had reckoned on the report showing slightly over 12,00o.- GOO bales, and may have been responsible for some covering. In a general way 1t had no effect. however, although the mar ket during the afternoon ruled generally steadier, demand that was credited to Wall Street shorts, and finally very steady net 12@14 points higher. Sales were estimated at 25O0Oo bales. The into sight figures for the week came to only 356,S69 bales, against 424,276 bales last year, and the outlook for the receipts for the immediate future seemed to be light, but this does not seem to be having the effect of discrediting the ginners' re- port, although that document is meeting with some criticism.
 The market will be closed tomorrow, Saturday, and will not reopen until the Tuesday after New Year.
 The Liverpool market as well as New Orleans also will be closed on these days. Receipts of cotton at the ports today 8O,061 bales, against 52, 2St last week, and fl ,751 last year. For the week 240 900 against 301 ,910 last week, and 29773S last year. and at Houston 6405 bales against 10,037 last year.

cothran 6 Co.'s Market Letter.

Two years ago at this time cotton was selling in New York at Sc per pound. Had any one made the prediction then that within year cotton would be sell ing at 1712c and within less than a year after would be selling at 6Ac, it is need less to say that they would have been looked upon as blighted with insanity. This week cotton sold at practically 6Ac in the New York market as compared with 71ac week ago. That is to say, in January of the year 1904 cotton sold in New York at 1712c and in New Or leans at 1SAc, and in December of the same year sold at 6Ac. The events lead ing up to the low prices of the present week are too well known to need repeti- tion. On the 2Sth inst. the third. install- ment of the census figures on cotton ginned in the south showed some 12 ,0O0 900 bales ginned on the 18th of the month which represents crop of anywhere be- tween 12,5oO,00O and 135OO,000 bales. The figures were so large that a panic and general demoralization followed. There are several million bales of cotton in the south still unsold, and it seemed as though the holders o1 every solitary bale was determined to sell futures at the same time.
 Prices have crashed to a figure that is not only the lowest since 1899 but it is way below the cost of growing cotton on plantations. We say it seemed as though holders of cotton tried to sell. The fact Of the matter Is that the speculator has In reality sold cotton for the grower. as the grower himself still seems to regard prices as too low to suit his ideas.

Loveman 6 Co.'s Market Letter.

The final report on cotton ginned to December IS, about met expectations by showing l1,91l,0O0 bales. Shorts were how ever, somewhat disappointed by the failure of the report to show more than l2'0OOO0O bales and the market steadied up bit. With the ginners' report out of the way there will Ve less disposition to follow the decline In fact, there seems t. be something a change in the senti- ment already This was demonstrated at Liverpool today where futures were at one time IS points higher than last nights closing level and spots were advanced II points on sales of 5000 bales.
 American traders, however, took advan- tage of the unexpected advance in the English market and sold contracts down to within eight points of yesterdays close. American markets were held in check also by home traders who were hopeful of today's ginners' report show ing a greater amount of cotton ginned than expected but they were not favored. The market was down to about the lowest of the day when census report was announced. March was selling at 6. 50 but covereing by shorts and investment buying of which there Is not a little on the down grade. steadied up things con siderably. March sold as high as 6.6I, closing 6.630l6.64 --ere was more doing ii spots, sales amounting to 51O0 bales, and 1000 to arrive. Middling 61s. Market closed steady and unchanged
 The government has shown to the trade that the south has raised more than 12- 100000 bales, now let the south show the world that 1t can have a voice in the matter of saying at what price 1t shall be sold.
