DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, oct. S1.-Against
Mr.. Cordil's report this morning, there
was a most bullish report by The Jour
nal of Commerce, saying that crop con
ditious had declined points during the
month, against a decline of only 4
ton on october 30, this year, g. Il.
against 69.S last year, 69.3 in 1911 and
657 in 1910.
Replies from correspondents as to the
size of the crop average 1874 900 bales.
The feature of Liverpool was the
bles reporting increased demand. better
business in Manchester and spinners
confident of lower prices and largely UNI
covered.
The map shows cloudy weather IN the
west fair in the east with continued
cold. Indications are for unsettled
weather and rains in the western States
over Sunday and fair and continued cold
In the east.
First traders here were al an advance
of 2 to 4 points, with stubborn tone in
the market in respect to depression.
Technical conditions here are not i'm
portant. as longs have realized right
along on the last advance and the re-
cent break has caused trailers to liqui-
date.
The feeling here is bullish The strong
situation Is fully realized and supple
mented daily by urfavorable crop re-
ports and strong spot news, showing
that holders are resisting the decline.
Fear Of possible further liquidation in
New York checked support at the start,
but the market advanced 16 points as
soon as New York showed no pressure.
The essence Of spot news is that hold
ers will not meet the decline There is a
steady and good demand for the better
grades.

COTTON GOSSIP

The market ruled very steady during
the forenoon on buying coming from
such men as Rich. Parrott, Gwathmey,
Craig brokers and Hentz. However, the
ring was against the advance, but there
was no special reason for the selling.
The selling has been constant during
the past few days and ii Is believed
by great many conservative operators
that an upturn Is in order.
one Of the explanations offered yes
terday for the declining trend OF the
market in the face Of the most bullish
budget of news that ever came to the
aid of longs was that there il an I'M
derStanding among certain strong spot
houses and several large brokers that

BILE in order to let in some big spinning
interests. who failed to get in the mar
ket before the freeze and are alarmed
now over the outlook for only a mod
crate yield 1t is also said that the re-
action has not yet run its course. and
some of those who claim to be on the
inside are predicting a further setback
of possibly a dollar a bale, which would
evidently look tempting to spinners, in
view of the fact that the crop is a small
one and a large portion of the staple Is
unspinnable.
a Representative OF New York cotton
house, who has just returned from a
trip in the Eastern region. says that
owing to the crop being early. not more
than 100000 bales of possible top crop
was lost by the freeze. He says that
undoubtedly the frost destroyed all
hopes of a top crop, as all blooms and
bols were killed. only in the case Of
bols which had almost matured before
the freeze the frost opened them and
that cotton win be saved. He predicts,
nevertheless, a yield above the normal
one in the eastern States of Georgia,
Alabama. and the Carol'nas. and thinks
that desuite the frost. Georgia will pro-
duce $500 900 bales The eastern belt,
in his estimation. should make up the
Indoubted shortage in the Western
States and bring the total commercial
crop up to 100000 bales. or possibly
more.
