REEsKoRF, LYON co. COTTON LETTER
NEW york. Sept. 2s.-Fluctuations in cotton
futures have ben very erratic this week and In
a range OF so points. The dominating influence
cannot be considered TO have been otherwise
than favorable. Rains and lower temperatures
have been the rule over the entire belt, which
are claimed to have stopped premature opening.
Crop accounts are more conflicting than ever,
and strange TO say, from the same sections and
from reliable parties. both Pessimistie and op-
umiEtic expressions are heard.
Semi-monthly estimates from private crop re-
porting bureaus give an average Of about
points decline In the outlook since Aug. p, the
date Of compilation Of the September government
report should there be no further deterioration
Up TO the 25th inst, bureau OF about 6S,
against q last year could be expected. On
such a showing II would be hard TO figure
moderate crop IL II were not for the fact that
this years crop is considered to be two OF three
weeks later than last year. and more subject TO
frost damages IL freezes should come at normal
date.
Trading has been very light, as the generality
OF operators hesitate to take a fixed podttion
with the size Of the crop 20 much In doubt. A
continuation Of this sentiment is likely 70 be
experienced tn the frost date has passed, which
Will likely leave the market nothing more than
scslping affair in the interim.
TIE high freight rates have had tendency TO
ause the difference between this market and
.iyerpool 10 continue TO widen, and at times
strong markets IN England have been met with
a display Of weakness here az home which has
added 20 the confusion Of the public mind and
served as a contributing cause for the lack OF
outside interest.
I'd the growing evidences OF a large trade de-
nand. We think purchases on good setbacks viii
be the safest policy to pursue. Profits OF mod
eratep rOPortions should be accepted when Of.
fered.
HAYWARD & cLAHKs COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, La, Sept. 28.-The weather
ever Sunday was not favorable, except In the
southwestern quarter OF the belt. While there
was 20 frost recorded in north Texas Ok lahoma
OF Arkansas, temperatures were TO- low for de-
yeIopment and the eastern half OF the belt had
a general and rather heavy rainfall, leading TO
reports Of Ismage from several localities. The
map shows a rainstorm formation over southeast
Alabama, which may move inland and cause
further extensive rainfall. Indications arc for
risiLg temperatures IN the western half OF the
belt.
. Crop information from the Atlantic states.
particularly the Carolinas, Is astonishingly poor.
II says the improvement made in August was
nearly all lost by the shedding Of all blooms
and oung fruit DUNG the two weeks hot spell
In September.
Liverpool came In poor. with futures about
5 points lower than due, spots u points lower.
The weakness is attributed TO the unfavOrable
technical condition OF the market, the bullsh
sentiment and the advances having eliminated
the short interest
This applies in q measure to our market also,
which, in spite OF unfavOrable weather, ruled
easy and lower this morning. Trading set
tied around II .64c Tor December and Is very
quiet. the market waiting for weather and
market news. The basis Is somewhat SITTER,
