report heavy continental liquidation.
Most of these speculative contracts viii
undoubtedly pass into the banks OF the
consuming trade and make for very
bullish technical conditions.
Our markets opened easier on the
poor Liverpool, but reflected strong con-
fidence by absorbing all the selling with
ease and recovering shortly all loss.
Prices were above last nights closing
figures before an hour had passed. Con-
sidering that we are in the midst of the
dull November period, bulls have hardly
ground for complaint at the action OF
the market, which is by far steadier
than had been expected.
Should this crop really turn out as
moderate as generally believed it could
not fail to raise the general price ideas
as, after the real effort made this year
toward producing a larger crop, mod
crate yield would create doubt in the
world as to posi- bility.
In the last third of this month spot
business is expected to become more
active; meanwhile, support is being kept
in suspense, also by anticipation Of

Snow Says Figures
On Wheat Too High

CHICAGO. Nov. 11.-Acocrdiug TO B.
W. Snow, the Government report ap-
plies to the local estimate OF wheat

ported as planted in July The Blu
reau's circular to its local agent merely
asks "fOr yield per acre" and gives no
instructions as to whether the acreage
TO be considered ia the area actually
harvested or the area originally planted
That a large part az least Of the local
Government reporters have made their
estimate upon the basis Of acreage ac-
tually harvested is evidenced by the
fact that my own local agents this
month, with definite Instructions to con
slider only the acreage actually produc-
ing the average Weld, 33.l bushels per
acre, and the Government agents at
the same time. without definite instruc-
tions, make ii % bushels per acre, but
Il has been Che custom OF the Bureau to
devise its acreage figures before begin
ming its final estimate in December,
without materially changing its Novem-
Der report OF yield per acre.
Last year the acreage was reduced
i,037 900 acres, and though She Noven-
Der rate Of yield Of 248 was only
changed to 292, the crop estimate was
reduced $4,000 900 bushels. This wear
there has been a heavy total loss OF
acreage, and the final revision nexr

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.--Trading was

at net decline of to points from
Mondays finals The market, in word
acted tired, and during the first 10 min
utes trading was extremely light. After

the market yesterday. Brokers with
Liverpool connections were again promi-
nent on the buying side.
The principal feature OF the early trad

buying of May, which indicated that
some Of the larger interests were trans

positions and narrow the premium De-

and unchanged from May. It is the
intention of the majority to put January
at good premium over March and May.
During the forenoon trading was light
but there was a steady demand coming
from strong sources, including New Or
leans and prices swung up 2 to 4 points
from the previous close. but later eased
off several points, in absence of suf-
nctent restStiVe power. The ring and
Wall street were free sellers throughout
the early trading.
on the bulge spot interests showed
inclination to sell on the theory that the
rise was only temporary rally and 1t
had run far enough to drive in shorts
This. coupled with the fact that Liver
pool did not respond to our advance
yesterday and promise of clear and ris-
ing temperatures over the belt, brought
out heavy selling by the ring and ag
gressive offerings by those who were
the principal buyers yesterday and at
the outset of the day on the break
December touched 1926, January 1893,
and March 1910
Later in the day the list managed to
recover few points Of the loss. through
g wave of moderate trade buying, which
is believed will sustain January around

Sentiment is mixed at the movement,
but there are considerable more bears
than in weeks and much lower levels
are anticipated, owing to the increased
movement, and expectations of large
ginnings returns to November IA.
In the face of q wire from Savannah,
Ga, stating that interior holders re
fuse to make offers and spots not
meeting the decline in futures, brokers
closely identified with spot houses and
the ring hammered every option on the
list numerically, sending January and

COTTON GOSSIP

Mitchell. Waters and New Orleans were
good buyers at the outset. Riordan was
a good seller. It is aid that 10000 bales
of Riordan's purchases Yesterday was
for Scales. After the call Liverpool spot
houses were active buyers OF December.
MCFadden inclined to sell on the rally.
Later Pearsall sold.
Sentiment is mixed at the moment.
II. F. Bachman & Co. says: "Consum-
ers of cotton have not yet shown any
great anxiety about their purchases for
the coming season. This. more than
anything else, seems to be the cause OF
the recent depression in prices. The
fact must not be overlooked, however,
that Notwithstanding the general falling
off in business generally, the worlds re-
quirements have not yet been fully pro-
vided for and the American crop is not
up to the last few years average OF
quantity and quality"
Public interest in the cotton market
Is at a minimum. Such activity as is
occasionally evidenced comes largely
from within the cotton exchange and
has been but temporary A number of
the largest traders are waiting for
something to happen to reflect definite
trend to prices. The South appears dis
interested in day to day fluctuations and
Liverpool is taking no aggressive stand.
The trustee for D. B. Hull has sold
J. Sorrells for $4,000, which is I'M
changed from the last previous sale.
NEW ORLEANS, Nov. Hayward
& Clark: The weather map shows
partly cloudy in Western Texas and
Oklahoma. No precipitation. Freezing
temperatures prevailed generally over
the eastern half OF the belt, except in
the Gulf Coast districts and Florida.
The New Orleans Times Democrat
says: while the talent has not yet
begun to sell the contract market short,
sentiment is becoming more and more
divided, and far-sighted operators are
beginning to believe normal condition
engaged will soon exist. For the most
part, recent selling seems to have been
for the account OF liquidating longs.
Trade buying has figured to some ex-
tent, but spectators have, as rule
kept hands off. Hence the decline as
a result Of the cleaning out the market
was received.
Students of the situation are not yet
sure that all the joy riders are out, con-
SeQuently further decline of Il or 1ac
would not surprise them at all. In this
connection, it should be remembered
that the market is now in the middle of
the heaviest movement period; that
wide publicity has been given some To-
900 900 bales plus estimates, and that
price depression now would encourage
full consumption
1T is true, seeming apathy among
consumers is more apt TO prove studied
than real and that in the event the
crop is to pan out less than require
ments the present period of uncertain
" and mixed sentiment is the best OPP
portunity consumers will have to get in
at a relatively low level of values.
But there is no forced buying now, and
recent declines may well have been
helped along by interested people"
ginners confirms estimates over 14,500,-
600 bales. Think present prices are safe
when outside Influences are better, like
Mexican news yesterday. Manchester
