COTTON LErrrR.

By Private Wire to waiter Cotter & Co
 New Orleans, La, Dec. 3.-The Times Democrat estimate of 12.450,000 packs sHwi etc., is oSss undoubtedIy T % above the the Idea of bulltsh crop size held by the masses and considerable selling went to the earliest available market. fu- lures in Liverpool showing an opening decline of 10 points followed by further weakness. Our market opened 10 70 @J lower. buying by ,straddlers and scalpers caused little recovery but there was little evidence of former con fidence and every little improvement attracted considerable selling, profess sionals are mostly long of the market and helped to stay decline which might otherwise have been more serious. It Is also thought that spot holders who, up to now, who have received such en- couragement from the active spot de- mand will not meet the decline so read fly and that. futures therefore are at too much discount under spots for the present. There Is no doubt however. that confidence in bullish outcome en by this estimate which points to a commercial crop little over 13 million; should the government estimate con- firm this view, fear of the undersuppiy of raw material for the season. which would have furnished solid ground for the bull speculation, is expected to give way to calmer view of the grade situation and supply and it's effect on the market
 For the immediate future all de- bends on the action of spot holders and whether consumers continue in their attempt to put in a season wants in the short space of five months, or whether the demand becomes quieter and more distributed. The present heavy movement will now find more consideration.
 The spot market is upset, buyers ana sellers very much apart; demand so far today nominal, some hedged cotton selling at 3-8 decline and more. No business thus far in factors cotton to holders. Futures became uuieter toward noon and trading settled around 1Dge for March; the discount below spot prices is checking selirng.
 Heavy tenders in New York helped the depression: Our market followed and the execution of stop limits caused sharp break to 1046 for March Sell ing then seemed satisfied for the day and the normal reaction on profit taking by scalpers set in. The action of for with speculative enterprise on our side la the near future Should Liverpool develop steadiness and the lower level attract new business for spots, then wise the fear of large government es- innate would probably Induce further liquidation during the week.
 Spots continued quiet, the bulk of holders were not inclined to meet the Il cents for middling. There is a better supply of cotton on the market. The Interior did not offer much and the largest Texas buyers say their bids did not draw any cotton Miss Gales estl- mates the crop 12,490,00O. MT.

 The wheat market opened tsiiie @ easier because of selling by pit traders and commission houses, who were m . fIuenced by lower cables and by con siderable gain in receipts at Mlnneapo- lis and Duluth, where arriNdlss tSusss ttess were nearly 400 cars in excess Of those of the corresponding day a year aso, Elevator interest were talrly actiVs bidders for the May option and this de- mand held that delivery relatlVeiy hrI hrIn' The market was also bearishly amected by the liberal primary @moNeileahtL, @ ne V t tS- tai receipts today being l,5e4,VOV pusn- els compared with 917,0OO bushels lase year, a gain of 40 per cent. " Wlth tne posting of the large clearances from Atlantic and Gulf ports today. the total being 1106,700, sentiment in the pit became bullish and throughout s tne res mainder of the day shorts were urgent bidders for wheat. The market Was further strengthened by the asser- tion of an expert crop statistician, Who wheat from Russia this year will not exceed 9e00O, GOO bushels as against l47,5O0 0e0 bushels last year The vis1 isble supply figures which showed at,- dS- crease of Ss 900 bushels compared with an increase of about 100000 busneIs one year ago was also bullish factor; The market closed firm.

The market, however, soon rallied because of a demand caused by small primary receints and a decrease of 6S,Oh0 push eis in the visible supply against an tn- crease of S16,e00 bushels one year ago. Shorts and commission houses bought actiyely on the upturn and fine market closed firm. May opened unchanged to a shade low CT at 43 3-S@ 49 1-2, sold up to 43 5-S and closed at 43 5-S.

 Provisions were irregular, lard being inclined to weakness while pork and ribs were firm. An increase Of S,eOe tierces in the words stocks of lard for November caused the weakness in that product. The strength of pork and ribs was due to a decrease in the stocks on hand. At the close, Janu- ary pork was 20 cents higher at $l4. SO. Lard was off 5 cents at $8.45.

H. and Ia. Beer Cotton Letter.

New Orleans, La, Dec. s.--The pub. lfshfnRsof the annual crop estlmateot correspondents of The New r,, Sr1e4as Sayaras ble effect upon the cotton market, con. s2 per bale compared with closing or last Saturday. March rovvae desolInlas mas estio mated at 12,l50, 900, exclusive of lin ters, repacks and other adoltlons. Shorts took their cue from the remarks linters and the sort. and on this basis arrived at the conclusion that thers was a possibility of the commercial crop being in the neighborhood of 1S,- veiopments in the future market. oc- casioned by the larger estimate than generally looked for, the spot markets were visibly affected, prices. reported as being irregular and practically nor mai with less business doing in early hours than for time buyers having withdrawn in the hope of bringing about a decline commensurate with the level of futures. but at most prices are said to be no lower than l-4 to 3-S, middling about lie, whereas January contracts are below 10 1-2. Neverthe- less the decline established was looked upon as the breaking of the ice. 1t now being feared that next Monday s annual crop estimate of the ASricultu- in excess of 12.000,0. o, and as the Government predictions of the past have been much below the final out turn of the crop in some instances from one to two million bales too small, last years estimate of 10.16S.000 bales, com paring with a commercial crop of Ill., 346,000 bales. it's estimate of the year before last, about 12,161, 900 bales com naring with Mr. Hester's 13,566 900.
 The trade will probably look upon an estimate on the part of the Govern ment for a yield in excess of 12,000, 900 bales as indicating a commercial crop of about 13,0O0, 900. These assumptions may be as misleading as any other of the conclusions arrived at vet. they are likely to have their effect. just as was the case today. .:.
 Meanwhile. operators will Soe giving their attention to the census report on quantity of cotton ginned to December 1, which report will be issued at 10 o'clock. New Orleans time, rext Satur- day To the same date last wear B. 6S9,663 bales had been ginned. There are no comparatives available for the year before last.
