 Prices Soaring
ESTIMATE OF SMALL CROP
Market Opens Higher On Better Prices At Liverpool and When Ginners'
 Report Is Issued Free Buy
 ing Causes Advance.

New York, November 21-There was an excited advance in the cotton market today as a result of small crop esti- mates, based on the census report and the close was excited and irregular at d net advance of 27 to 97 points Sales of the day were estimated at 100000 bales.
 The market opened steady at a net ad. vance of to 8 points in response to higher cables and the bullish census figures, but the upward tendency was checked early by heavy realizing. and it was not until atfer midday that the market became excited and scored it's big gains. Then there was very heavy buy ing by Wall street shorts One broker took 20,00O bales of January in a single block, and there was general covering as we'll as bull support based on the census report and talk of a better de- mand from New England spinners. At the highest point, which was reached late in the afternoon, January sold at 10 63s March at 10.73c and May at 10.Soe, or 50 points net higher and nearly cent above the low level of the season. The close was off from the best under realiz- ing, The census report showing the dliiouilt ol cotton Slnned To NoNemDer II was considered by some local authorities to indicate crop of under Il 500, GOO bales as the amount gnned to that date was under the figures of 1905, when the crop was about Il ,3o0.000 bales and the amount of cotton ginned between October Is and November IA, this year. and even smaller than in 1903, when the crop was in the neighborhood of 10000, 600 bales

in that trade which were present in the city and engaged in consultation upon the stability of the trade. The maintenance of the premium of currency and a.~rise to above yesterdays prices was satisfactory of the news and call money was stiff again with the call ing of loans in progress. This was rather vaguely ascribed to appropriations for subscriptions to the new Panama bonds and treasury certificates, although no authentic details were to be learned as to the progress of these operations.
 Increased interest is felt in the prospect of increasing the gold shipment from the Bank of France by the use of treas ury certificates as collateral. The in- creased strength of position shown by the Bank of France in its weekly state ment today and the a. .ention or the Bank of England from advancing its discount rate were regarded as corroba- tive of the likelihood of this transaction being consummated.

STOCK MARKET
 CONTINUES WEAK Cleaning Up Process Is Still
 Going On
NOT ALL STOCKS AFFECTED
Bankers Appear To Be Exerting Their Influence Against Gambling Meth ods, While Bears Still Ham,
 mer On Weak Points.

New York, November 21.-Liquidation of the same painful character as Tor several days past was still in evidence in the stock market today and acute de- pression of the stocks immediately af- fected was occasioned by this selling. The weakness did not embrace the list as a whole at any time and the market showed some resiliency in the late deal- ings which suggested responsibility on the part of professional bears for part of the days dealings. Develop ments regarding the properties whose se- curities were being sold were not motives for the selling so far as was known. A process of cleaning up of credit ac- counts by the banks was believed to be in force and to involve new relations of strictness and impreviousness to infiu- ence and favor such as prominent capi- talists of practically unbounded resources have exacted from the sanks.
 The fact that the banking situation in New York as at present in effect under the centralized control of the clearing house authorities through it's loan com mittee in connection with issuing of clear ing house certificates is advanced as an e.planation for the enforcement of the new rules of procedure. Whatever the cause, the fact is patent that the forced liquidation of loans by selling out of collateral in the stock market is In progress from time to time. The process is particularly obvious in securities in which syndicate transactions have oe- cured. The acute weakness yester- day and today of the Atchison convertible 5 per cent bonds call attention to the fact that some $15,000,000 of the issues unsubscribed% by stockholders was taken recently by a syndicate of bankers. The southern gro of railroads, .ae Erie, New York Central, Pennsylvania, Balti- more and Ohio, and other stocks were under severe pressure from time to time. The selling Of some of these stocks was partly influenced apparently by fears of coming dividend reductions.
 A decided impression was caused by the report denied later in the day of the cancellation by the Pennsylvania of a large order for locomotives. -.merican Locomotive was directly affected by this rumor. The declaration of the dividends of the National Lead stocks helped the metal industries to some extent, es- pecially American Smelting. A rice in the price in London of copper also conduced to this end There was a feel ing of announcement precepti)le in the conditions in the iron and steel trade. which was accounted for by the views expressed by large numbers of leaders

35oo bales on the spot and 1850 to arrive. Futures opened barely steady, to points above the close yesterday as a result Of favorable adviees received from Liverpool. Strengthened and steadied rather than anything else by what was construed as a bullish ginners' report. an nouneed shortly after the opening, the market closed strong and there was brought about a good upward tendency amounting to an advance of from to 2 points by noon. While the response to the bullish view taken of the ginners re- port in the morning was not very marked. the market advanced sharply on heavy covering by shorts in the afternoon. Considerable buying by locals and for outside accounts sent prices well up. and at the close, which was steady, the a. tive months ranged from S to 3S points above the close yesterday.
