GINNING REPORT
 IS COMING TODAY Will Have First Effect on
 Cotton Market WEATHER WILL VIE Two Leaders May Cause Uneasiness. Expected That the Crop Will
 Vary Around Twelve Mil
 lion Bales

New Orleans, March 19.-This week tho
 cotton market will first be influenced by the final report of the season on cotton ginning by the census bureau. This re- port will be issued at 9 o'clock Monday morning. or five minutes before trading begins in the local market and simul- taneously with the opening of the New York market, therefore it will affect prices right away
 Right down to the close of last week there was much dispute aroused in the
 future ring as to what the report would
 show There were many bears who be-
 lieved it would point to a commercial
 crop of about 12,250,o00 bales, while prob
 ably the majority of bulls did not be-
 lieve in over 11,S00,O0O The dividing linc
 will probably be 100000 bales and any
 thing under will cause an advance, that
 is unless certain cliques have made arr
 arrangements to put prices lower, no mat
 ter what the figures are, while anything
 over 100000 ought to cause decline. The weather will vie with the census report in importance The outlook at the end of the week was for rain over Sum
 day and if the rain materializes any ad-
 vance on a bullish census report will be
 only temporary, while the effect of bear
 ish figures will be intensified. The wealth.
 CT throughout the entire week will bs
 watched closely for planting time is at
 hand in many sections of the belt and
 considerable cotton is up in Texas. If the
 indications are that the drouth is to end,
 the new crop positions will be put under
 severe pressure while If no great amount
 of rain is experienced it will be hard for
 the short side to do anything with therc
 positions, no matter If other features Of
 the market favor them.
 Statistics may play an important part
 in shaping the course of prices, especi-
 ally toward the latter part of the week. Figures promise to be come sensationally
 bullish this week and if bulls do not take advantage of them it will be because they are afraid of the situation in Washington The time is now approaching when tho market will again be under the shadow c. threatened legislation. As the date of the opening of the extra session of Con gress hears 1t is probable that both sides will do more or less liquidating, leaving scalpers to bandy back and forth the sup ply of contracts left. As the situation now stands, every one Is hoping that dras- tic bills, such ss the Scott bill, will be replaced by bill giving the federal gov- ernment the power to regulate the ex- changes of the country trading in con- tracts for the future delivery of cotton, but until something definite develops the market will be nervous and traders will
 not be disposed to attempt very large operations.
