Gilbert & cIay's Market Letter.

Our future markets showed more dispo- sition today to respond to the bullish Liv- erpool than they have done recently. Eng lish cables showed price advances or 10 English points more than expected. This was said to be partly due to American buying, as well as to fears of bullish ginners' report.
 The National Ginners association fig- ures were put out as S,975,0oo bales, and this was said to represent "A per cent of the total grown crop.
 But for feeling in bearish quarters that these figures might not accurately repre- sent the actual conditions, and that the census report due tomorrow, would likely show a total variously estimated at from 15O, 900 to 300,0o0 bales more, the market would have been entitled to an advance of from 2b to 30 points. The best that can be said is that fluctuations were with fin a narrow range from the high points Of the day, and customers are in a waiting mood, prepared to buy cotton on any pronounced decline and to liouidate long holdings in case of sudden advance or size,

 While the Chicago Bank failures seemed. to be Fclegated completely to the background, the probability was dis cussed that the clearing house settle ment of the difficulty proposed might involve the tying up of considerable re- sources with possible effect on the money situation during the turn of the year. The decline in activity In the market was partly attributable to the approach of the holidays and the normal disposi- tion at that time to clear up commit- nents, although the proposition to the close of the stock exchange for an extra holiday on Saturday seemed to find no favor The sharp break in Peoples Gas was attributed by rumor to liquida- tion growing out of the Chicago failures and increased a disposition to take prof its all through tho market. Prices were carried considerably below the best in consequence and some of the important gains completely wiped out The clos ing was easy. After the close the re- duced dividend and reduced price of gas put in effect by the Peoples Gas became known.

 This forced a 20 point higher opening in our markets with substantial buying by good houses and shorts anxious to cover. Liverpool closed at the best.
 Our market too. maintained the gain, but trading light public not taking any stock in the National Ginners report, They want to see the government census and in this respect it Is argued that 1T the National Ginners makes ginning between December i and December IS about boo,oo, the census will make 1t 60o,0oo or more, giving figure above 9,3oo,O0O, which Will be bearish

Abercrombie 6 Co.'s Market Letter.

The market was advanced to higher level today on buying influenced by a more bullish National Ginners' report on amount of cotton ginned to December lS than expected-sS75.00 900 bales-an increase of 4S9,000 bales since December l. The census report is due tomorrow and as their returns to the end of November showed s,6s5,000 bales ginned, today's Na- tional Ginners' association report indlcat- ed an official bulletin showing about B. 175.000 bales ginned to December l3, plus. perhaps, an additional 100000 bales or so on account of the National having been too low in their last repart by about the amount stated, which makes It possible for tomorrow's census to show as much as 9,375,000 bales. In connection with the about differences In amount reported ginned between the glnners' association and the census department. we have It to- day by wire that the ginners claim tho government to be wrong by about 2oooo bales in their last report, and to prove their assertion are requesting of the cen sus officials to publish their returns by counties, and to that end are now in tele- graphic correspondence with Washing ton.
