COTTON DECLINE
 WAS UNPROTECTED
Bears Predict Continued Laeeine of Prices. but Bulls Apparently Are
 Undaunted


 decline in the cotton market on Thursday came to many like a flash out of the clear sky. To others, after an almost uninter- 1 rupted advance of $15 a bale, a set back of S25O to $3, such as occured then, was no more than natural. Patten and other invi ted ests are supposed to have reduced their holdings if they are not actually out of the market. Wall Street houses have been very heavy sellers, so have the rank and file of cotton traders.
 The market had become heavily overbought and when bulls with drew their support as they did on Thursday the price came down With startling suddenness. FigA' orous hammering by bear leaders helped to bring it about. The net decline for the week is com paratively moSRrate but bears krci,Gct from now on there W H. be a gradual sagging of prices to point where the spinners will be- induced to take hold freely.
 Foreign mills have bought very heavily this season but the Ameri ican spinner has for the most part held aloof. As a result he claims that he could not buy the raw material at existing prices and sell his goods at a profit.
 Therefore he either abstains alt together from buying or else he bought as little as possible. Also there has been q steady spread | of the movement to reduce the output of cotton goods so many hours a day or so many days i'll week.
 Of late the spot markets have shown less snap, less activity and strength. Liverpools spot sales have suddenly dropped. to q very small total daily. The New York stock is steadily increasing as stock can be bought from the South at profit. Crop news has been rather more cheerful. The crop of Texas and some other states may turn out to be larger than at one time seem possible. Over election day there was very heavy selling supposedly by Pat ten and other interests in New Orleans and Liverpool. Bulls be- lieve that even setback of even 30 or GO points in a day is no valid argument against the position, that sooner or later prices must mount to very much higher level Tn the Sully year when the price was around 12 cents and above, there were frequent setbacks or 40 points or more in day yet the price ultimately reached 17,oo.
 The exports are on very large scale and spinner's takings for the season despite the high prices rul- ing show a considerable increase over those for the same period Hast season. Liverpool has been buying to liquidate straddlers. At times both American and Foreign spinners have been buyers of fu- lures here. It is cOntended that T the, South had sold cotton to the amount of 35,OOO,OOO bales and is in a position to fight decline and is likely to do so. Crop estit mates from various sources have ranged from l1O,OOO,OOO to 11,r OOO,OOObales, while bulls refuse to ilsten to any estimate of the worlds consumption of American cotton of Hess than 13,OOO,OOO to 13 5O0OOO bales

strange players trotted out on the

third baseman, stopped at second yes

ayers Heyser and Jerman have some
thing great in this man Smith, owing
to the fact that he has had expert

passenger train. Smith played an
errorle5s game yesterday, getting
four assists, two put outs and one
hit. The little man backs up at
nothing, whether II comes straight
from the bat covered with smoke. or
skinning np the dirt through short
or pitcher. He has been engaged as
regular man for Salem, and will be

third base, but John also played out
of luck, being credited with an err
