SPECULATION HAS
 JAGGED IN COTTON eak-Kneed Holders Have
 Sold Out Recently CONFLICT OF OPINION Bears Argue That Manufacturers Will Retrench and Cut Down Consump- ton While Bulls Resist All
 Such Argument
CONFLICT OF OPINION

New York, December 30-Speculation has Jagged and prices of cotton have ac- cordingly dropped, especially as receipts at the ports and interior towns have con- tnued large. Moreover the New York stock is rapidly increasing and at times there have been apprehensions of big notices on the 30th--which it was feared might have a distinctly depressing effect on prices But although Craig and Me Fadden interests are understood to have issued notices on that day for about 100, 0o0 bales, it appears they also stopped them It is said further that there was Il good deal of buying of January and sell ing of March at 90 points difference and of May at 90 points difference against these transactions
 But good many tired holders have sold out during the week owing to the dullness of the speculation and the failure of the market to advance as had been ex- peeted since the recent ginning reports and the bullsh government crop estimate early in the month. Fall Rivers sales of goods have been light.
 Curtailment talk is growing louder in New England if not elsewhere. Depres- sion in the stock exchange at times has had some effect and in the forepart oi the week rumors that the next ginning returns. would be pretty large also had a tendency to undermine confidence and an immediate and permanent advance. It Is said that the Waldorf-A Astoria ele- ment has been selling Some interests with large southern connections have sold at times quite freely. General trade according to bears, that it plainly indi-
 cates disposition on the part of the
 Amercan people to retrench That, they
 think, will tend to cut down the consump. ton of cotton and looking upon the yield
 as well over 100000 bales they argue il will be sufficient for the worlds needs On the other hand bulls contend that il will take several seasons of big crops to bring prices down to anything like the level they formerly occupied and keer them there, especially as this country raises nearly 75 per cent of the worlds crop of cotton.
 Well known southern operators have given prices of futures support and mil interests are said to have re-entered the market with considerable purchases or
 Thursday. Spinners have been buyers oi l futures. Exports have recently been lib
 eral. English trade is in promising | condition. More cheerful reports are being received from the continent. Spo
 quotations at the south have. as rule been well maintained. Commission houses
 have shown disposition to buy at Il cents and under.
 l Some very large interests have beer buyers on the theory that things will i'm prove during the coming year. Some
 others are holding aloof for the time beint owing to the sluggishness of the specula ton and the continuance of large receipts
 desiring also to see the next ginning re
 port to be issued ,on January 10 befor,
 taking decisive stand one way or tn
 other.
