THE COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK, Dec. S.-The cotton
market opened Easy at a decline of 3
points on December ana of 10 to -
points on later months under heavy
liquidation and active bear pressure,
inspired by the report of the census
bureau showing more cotton ginned to
December / than had been generally
anticipated. There Vac some buying
on the decline and spot people seemed
to be giving December support, but
the market was very ervou and
prices during the middle OF the morn
ing were about Is to 81 points under
the closing figures OF yesterday. The
ginning report showed 10. 103. 1856 bales
ginned to December 1e against s.S7s.sSi
last year and 11.0eS.6 6t two years ago.
The marker continued very nervous
later in the forenoon. but offerings of
Ions cotton were so well absorbed as
TO reassure remaining longs. Trading
became a little less active. and the
market at midday Was steadier on ov-
erings with prices ON : to Q points
up from the lowest or at a net dec1na
Of about II tn Ia points.
The market was comparatively quiet
during the early afternoon. with prices
ruling some Is to IS points net lower.
under scattered commission house
selling. Small estimates Of The East
india crop helped to sustain prices.
Southern SPOT markets were generally
unchanged.

THE CHICAGO Markell.

CHICAGO. Dec. 8.-Bearish talk
about worlds supplies of wheat being
the largest on record had a depress-
ing effect on prices today. A promi-
nent speculator. who has been out OF
the market recently was active in fore
ing attention to figures. showing the
total stock to be 48.s7s 900 bushels more
than a year ago. The increase in
America was given as [. 1000. 600 bushels.
Favorable weather in the Argentine
tended also to cause a heavy tone in
the pit. The opening was u to q cent
lower. May started at $3.50 to 96la
cents. covering the entire range of the
market and later sold of to e614 as
cents.
Some frmness returned on reports
that the Minneapolis flour trade was
picking up, but the effect was lost be-
cause of the shutdown of a mill at
Kansas City through lack of orders
The close was weak, with May at $500
96k. a net loss of X 10 Il.
Cold weather and big Argentine ship
ments made corr easy. May opened
unchanged to Is cent off. at 4Iss to AK
cents. and declined to 47hass cents.
Large consignments from Iowa and
continued selling by a lea1ing local
concern kept prices down. The close
was easy, with May Il to Is off, at
41%947lz.
Although oats were fairly well sup
ported, the market sagsed with other
grain. May opened unchanged TO a
| shade down, al 34Adss, to 54ss, and de-
elined to 341..
With a liberal hog run West com
mission houses were sellers Of provi'
sions. Buying on the part OF p'
shorts led to a reaction later. Firs
sales were a shade to ~ cents lower
with May at 17.171s TO lbs for pork
go for lard and $50 for ribs.
