The New Orleans Times Democrat
says: Beyond the shadow of doubt
monster movement, induced by high
prices, reflects full ginnngs. In the
week Just closed 71400O bales were
brought to light, against $50. 900 bales a
year ago. and $4,000 bales in 1911,
making the totals so far 3,77600 in
1913, S,613,000 in 1912 and 3,749,000 in
1911. For this reason. if for no other,
students of the market and crop eX-
pect the Census Bureau TO report large
ginning returns to October 1S, and
many operators have been acting on
the belief that the showing will exceed
rather than fall below 1000, 900 Bales,
However, it by no means follows
that to-days census returns will repre-
sent an arbitrary so per cent OF the
crop, exclusive of linters. There is an
ancient belief among tho trade that
ginning figures as of October 10 should
approximate half the yield, but this be-
lief had its Inception some years ago.
when the supply requirement equation
was predtcated upon conditions. which
have since undergone radical change.
Facilities for rapid ginning have been
enormously improved The early sea-
son price in its relation to the sea-
sons average price is higher now than
It formerly was. Shipping facilities are
better. And, what is more important
still, increasing need has caused spin
ners to buy more heavily for early
season delivery. The margin of safety
in spinners' reserve stocks OF raw cot
ton have grown relatively smaller, as
consumption has comparatively in
creased"

HELP COTTON RISE
High Barometer in Northwest Also
Bullish Weapon-0ctober-D
cember Sets High Record.

NEW YORK, Oct. 25-The Govern
Hneht ginning figures were so close to
expectations that the opening of the
cotton market today showed but little
change, prices being unchanged to 2
points higher than Fridays close.
Ninnhhgs as of October were placed
az o,g56,5S3 bales, which was construed
very 6ullish by conservative people after
considerable discussion, which charac-
terlzed the market at the outset more
than trading-even though 'ginnings
were fl,3I7 bales more than they were
d year ago during the same period
meanwhile the general sntiment here
was bullish in face of weak cables and
very much better weather than ex-
pected.
After the call, however, htere was tre-
mendous buying credited to large spot
houses and bull leaders, and there was
very little selling in evidence. Shorts
ana wall street Joined in the buying
movement and within a half hour the
list stood IS to % points higher than
the opening range
After the ginnings reports had been
digested, traders heard a lot of fresh
bad weather The wires told of high
barometer In the far Northwest, which
map readers said meant very cold
weather in the belt There was a lot
OF buying on this theory. Later an
showing in Oklahoma There was a
general shaking of heads when another
bad spell of weather was predicted for
next week, causing sentiment to be-
come more bullish generally, and al
most everybody predicted that the mar
ket would take another big jump
should bad weather predictions mate
rialize over Sunday.
The result was a fresh outburst of
buying " weekend shorts. Big spot
houses continued to buy and old bulls
advised their friends to buy and re-
predicted much higher prices.
Near positions, which were under per-
sistent demand, went into new high
ground. October reached 1424, against
l4.22, the previous high mark, estab-
lished Wednesday, while December
touched 14.07, new high level Other
positions were equally as strong, but
failed to make new records.
There unquestionably was some SELL
ing of long cotton and it was said that
II the map dsappoints them Monday
there will be considerable for sale.
However, the market quickly absorbed
this selling and at the close the tone
was steady. with prices II to % points
higher than Fridays close.

length tonight by delegates at the

No definite conclusion was reached,
although many Of the speakers con-
tended that women's intuition informs
them of approaching death and they
seek life insurance and therefore are
undesirable risks.
The convention proper will begin to-
morrow.
Other causes of the seeming paradox
that, although women live longer than
men. they are not proper risks. given
by DR.. d. A. Talbot of Kansas City and

Until recently the women insured
were those who sought insurance and

men.
