The local market opened steady and unchanged

bear crowd were free sellers, well as consider
able liquidation by tired holders. The feature
Of the day was the ginners report, showing the
amount ginned to December / to be ! l. 010 S62
bales. This as expected. and had but little
effect. The final estimate by the government is
due at l p m. tomorrow and is looked for to
show from II. $4,000 to 5000 600 bales. Some
big people here who are short and selling the
market heavily said to be buying as much
in the LiverpOol market hedges. There was
considerable liquidation today among small trad
ers, but the big fellows continue to stand by
their lines and continue to add to it on p 1;cale
which brokers believe is good policy.
WASHINGTON. Dec S.-A total of II 01O S62
bales of cotton ginned from the growth of 1908
to December l, and 26.972 active ginneries

Beans and Seeds

Bean handlers continue to quote a quiet and
steady market. with prices unchanged
The bean report of Adolf Koshland saws:
The market has been quiet during the last
week, and but few changes have taken place in
values. There has been good demand for cram
berry beans and consequent advance in prices
The market for lima beans has shown some
weakness for which doubt the fact is respon-
sible that good sized crop was harvested and
that after the heavy shipments of October and
November the quantity left In the state is
greater than usual.
White beans are firm. The light stocks of
these varieties which are now coming to market
are of an inferior quality and are naturally SELL
ing at a lower basis than No. stock. There is
no change in bayo beans since last week Other
varieties are steady
1t is TO be hoped that the threatened increase
in the rate of freight eastbound will not be put
into effect The higher rate would certainly tend
to affect the bean industry injuriously''
