HAYWARD. VJCK q oLARK's COTTON
 LETTER.

By Private Wire to Walter COtter 4 Com
 pany, A2 Commerce St.
 New Orleans, Dee. fS.-A lsng period of holidays has never yet been favorable to the bull cause and setbacks, as We had one to- Hay. are rather normal and without special significance. The natural suspense or re- trenchment of enterprise causes interruption in trade and speculative support which the markets reflect by dullness which, If follow ed up by bear pressure result in tempo raTy weakness. Business limited this morning and our market gave way ra pidiy to selling by scalpers on weakness in New York and disappointing Liverpool, where spots are quoted points lower Large daily arrivals of cotton and cOrrespon ding in day dullness in creating an easier feeling in spot circles abroad. A speculative stim- uant would come arropos under the cir cumstaness. Will the census report on Thursday provide 1t? with regard to 1t. there is a rumor afloat taht tho National Ginners' Association estimated ginnings to December 18th at 11.10o.00O which rumor contributed tc the selling this morning This census report to be published Thursday at 1 pm, New Orleans time will give the amount of cotton ginned to December 18th. which figure we shall compare with 9,29s.- 309 and 11,971.4T7 in the big crop year. The trade at present looks for report around 100000 and would probably consider any thing above that figure bearish. l0,90O,- 900 less bullish. Whatever It be ae- cording to reliable information there Is much less cotton to gather and to gin from new on than in 1904 and comparison with the ginning figures of that year should lead to the safest conclusion to crop size. It will be well to be prepared for considerable change in the market. The holiday ad- vantages combined with New York inten- tions as to low grade tenders may intensity the effect of an unfavorRble report.
 Spots are quieter today. although not lower. while there Is a steady demand from home mills. there was little new business from Europe. Fully middhng Liverpool is trading about 35 on JanuaTy, good middltng at T5 to So on January
 Futures continued dull throughout the af- ternoon with the market settled around 1oc for March. Good looking round in the spot market, but buslneRs only moderate at unchanged quotations. The rumor of a ginniDg report of II, 100000 by the National GInners Association has been officially de- nied.
 Truly yours,
