COTTON MARKET
 VERY IRREGULAR
Opens Steady at a Decline in Response to Easy
 Cables-Prices Rally

New York, December 19.fThe cotton market was nervous and irregular today with business largely in the way of even ing up for over the census report to- morrow and with the close barely steady but at a net advance of from to Il points.
 The market opened steady. at a decline of 1@4 points in response to relatively easy cables and while prices rallied to a net advance of los points right after the call on overnight covering, orders and support from leading spot houses, they soon weakened again owing to southern selling and realizing by recent buyers for a turn The market sold off to a net decline of about 4d6 points under these offerings with January working down b S97' comparing with S93, the high point of yesterday. Pressure became less az gressive of a scale down however, and as soon as the scattered offerings had been absorbed the market turned steady on continued covering for over the weeks g ginning report, or the holidays, and re- Dewed support from recent leading buy- CTS. December led the second advancing selling about 12 points net higher and into new high ground for the movement into which the latter position about to 8 points above the closing figures of yes terday and reacted or points from the best in the last few minutes. December was relatively quiet all day, and seemed relatively easy early, but later increased it's premium over January to about 45 points. It is reported that some of the local spot firms are working over time pre- pairing cotton for delivery on December contracts and the local stock is now in- creasing more rapidly but the long inter- est still seems to dominate the situation so far as the local market is concerned. There was very little from the south in the way of spot news and early advices from the leading southern market suS- tion while the big port receipts for the day appeared to be offset by the eXpec- tation of heavy exports in the near fu- ture Some of the southern ports re- port congestion and it is said that In some cases steamship companies have been forced to put on extra steamers to handle the cotton shipments.
 Receipts today 109,324 against 95,599 last week and 67,992 last year. Todays re- ceipts at Galveston, 32946 against 2ISSl last year; at New Orleans, 14l69 against 11,131 last year and at Houston, S,262 against 14,21O last year.

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, December 19.-Cotton fu- lures opened steady at decline of to points on poor cables. The weather ma D showed too much rain in the western belt and the forecast promised more rain over the cotton region generally, while storm warning was issued for the Louisiana and Texas coasts. This stimulated buying 10 some extent and put the trading months II to ? points over yesterday.
 Longs liquidated and sealpers went short for a turn with the result that at the end of the first half hour of business prices were 1 points under yesterday.
 The decline continued until the list was , to points down.
 Scalping shorts took their profits at this level and the buying checked the down ward tendency
 Spot houses were buyers and gossip Of the trade was that they favored higher prices for the time being. Expectations regarding the census report on ginning to- morrow continued bearish, estimates ranged from 13,500000 to 13s00,OOO bales.
 This resulted in no fresh short selling of consequence. Late in the first half of the session the list was steady and at noon prices were a point under yester- day.
 The market was very steady in the aft ernoon. Offerings weer light and a mod bring about an advance. An hour before the close tbe trading months were 6 to F points over yesterday.

MARKET CLOSED
 WEAK YESTERDAY
Misleading Reports From Argentine Largely
 Responsible

Chicago, December 19.-Despite the bull fish nature of the government crop re- port, the wheat market today closed weak. Misleading reports as to a break in prices at Buenos Ayres had much to do with the setback.
 Latest trading here varied from 14c up to Aa3sc down, as compared with 24 hours previous. Corn finished 1saAc lower, oats off 9sc to 1hc, and hog products at an ad- vance of 121se to 20c.
 There was an early advance in wheat owing to the shrlnkage in the government figures on the yield in the United States for 1911, and also because of fresh drop in receipts northwest. The advance, how ever, proved to be disappointing to deal CTS, who hao attached large importance to the government estimates.
 Accordingly, selling set in on heavy scale and hung like weight on the mar ket for the rest of the day As if to make matters worse from bear outlook, Ar genuine advices seemed badly conflicting, and an alleged break of cents on the curb at B1enos Ayres was magnided into serious affair, whereas the regular mar ket at the South American center showed later only a fractional decline. Another influence that counted against values was good sized increase of the worlds avail able supply total. Under such orders. prices displayed but little power to rally.
 Between the opening and the closing,
 lay ranged from 99hc to $1.O03sc, with lst sales 1s0p14c net lower at 991sa999sc.
 Influenced by wheat, the corn market weakened, although not until there had been rise due to the governmental re- port, and to d forecast of widespread rain or snow. It was noticed that the poor condition of country loads had been tell ing hard on the primary arrivals. May huctuated from 641ac to 651sc, closing steady, but 1s@14c down at 645sc.
 Cash grades were in fair demand. No. yellow was not quoted.
 Oats acted heavy from the first. The government report as to this grain had d distinctly bearish cast, and as a result there was considerable selling, partly at least, for the larger longs Top and bot tom prices touched for May turned out to be 4Sa4c and 4Sssc respectively, with the CloSe at 1o12S, tt ioSo ot 7SS II oh ielSl hS ures yesterday.
 Active buying for packers gave the pro- vision market decided strength. There was a good deal of investment also for outside account Offerings were confined to holders who desired to secure profits.
 At the last gong pork had risen 171sG2Oc, with lard and ribs challSed up 1212@171ac higher.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. December 19.-(SpeciaD. D.- Again the familiar feature of the past week, namely: Disappointing advices from Liverpool, small decline. and then more or less slow advance, has been the story of the market today. 1t would seem that there were not enough hedge sellers to supply the demand due to the growing idea that there was a slow improvement in trr5e and regardless of the crop cotton was rather 8 purchase around cents. Judging from the action of Liverpool the continent is not willing to buy freely again except on weak mar kets.
 At the close realizing sales brought about a reaction, but the December prem ium is still maintained. The local trade are looking for disappointing foreign market tomorrow.
 Liverpool schoud advance some 8 points in the morning.
