AYerv,s Letter

A Liverpool market some English points better than due and Miss Giles crop estimate of 11.315,000 were the news features of the day in the cotton mar het.
 These combined influences. together with strong spot markets resulted in net advance of about 10 points for the day in American markets.
 MT. Harding's crop estimate also had {. splendid effect in only strength ening the backbone of some holders. but in confirming low figures for the forth. coming crop estimate.
 My personal opinion fin regard to the latter, as put out in these letters some eelSs ago, is around 11.250,000 as the actual out-turn, exclusive of linters, al- though I believe the government esti- mate will close close to 11,000,0 GOO bales.
 All conditions surrounding the market are extremely healthy and until January ir New York gets around 12.90c I do not look for much of setback in prices. At that level round lots in the interior ought to be around 12 cents, at which price more or less cotton will come out. both contracts and spots. However, all this may be changed by reduced ocean freight rates, which will stimulate the export demand. This is the chief draw lack to big export business at the present time.
 Ali contracts are we'll margined and no over-trading or pyramiding Is in evil dence

The event of the week in the grain trade was the seizure by the Canadian government of all the supplies of good wheat immediately available, but which was later released on condition that shippers replace it within 60 days The quantity involved (not over 10000, 900 bushels) represents but small per- centage of Canada's surplus, which is supposed will amount to about 250,- 000 000
 More important factors are, we be- lieve, the heavy damage loss to our last winter wheat crop and greatly reduced acreage for the crop of 1916 There are good reasons for believ- ing that when the final returns are in it will be found that the loss to last crop is larger than any estimate that has as yet been made. Conservative men high in the grain and milling trade have estimated this loss as much as 200, 900 bushels.
 Latest estimates on new crop acre. age show a reduction of from 20 to 25 per cent as compared with last year.
 ''For the reason that the government report has made no allowance for the crop damage loss the importance of some price factor does not seem to be fully appreciated by the flour trade. but it remains fact just the same and condition that must be reck oned with eventually"
 The poultry supply continues to ex- ceed the demand and as result fry ing chickens have declined cents per pound. A still further reduction In price of all varieties is anticipated during the present week. There are large lots of very nice flyers and broilers on the market The poultry trade is good as it usually is.
 There was no changes noted in the fruit and produce maket yesterday. Only the arrival of two cars of bulk apples, which have advanced 50 cents to $1 per barrel for the fancy kind. All dealers report business good.
 With such ideal weather and the near approach of Christmas. business should measure up to all expectations. Fish and oyster dealers continue to hold up their end of the trade and are doing a nice business. Red snapper is still scarce but continues. Small shipments are being received by every train and the trade has suffered none small car of fish and car of oys- ters arrived on the market yesterday morning. Prices are unchanged. All grades of spot cotton show 1s cent ad- vance.

AGGRESSIVE DEMAND
 IN COTTON MARKET
Prices Advance in Response to Publication of Crop
 Estimates

New York, December 6.-Bullish private crop estimates. reports of southern spot
 markets and increasing estimates of do- nestle mill requirements, seemed to be responsible for more active and az
 gressive demand in today's cotton mar ket. January contracts sold up to 1256c
 or about r points above Saturdays clos ing figures, closing at 12.52c. while the General list closed steady at 8 net ad-
 vance of Il to 13 points.
 The market opened firm at an advance of to 10 points in response to relatively firm cables, and the publication of two
 crop estimates ranging from I,315,00o to Il, ,425,00o bales. excluding linters. There was considerable realizing around the opening figures and slight reactions oc- cured right after the call, but bullish sentiment was more in evidence than for sometime past and the market soon de- veloped increased strength, The advance was led by January with Liverpool houses buying that delivery against sales of later months to transfer straddles, while there was also buying by local and south
 ern spot housts presumably to cover hedges against spinners calling. Wall street lulSltSlS were BuOu uuSSiS oi Llie later months, while there appeared to be q broadening commission house business
 on the advance which carried active deliv- cries about II to F points net higher
 with March selling at 12.S5c. or into new
 high ground for the movement. while May
 sold at .Sic and July at 1232c. At the
 level demand tapered off to some extent and there were reactions of some or points in the late trading. Considerable attention was attracted by the publica-
 ton in dry goods circles of an estimate placing the domestic consumption of cot
 ton for the season at 7.216,000 bales and the larger port receipts were taken in bullish quarters as foreshadowing an in- creased export movement.

Charles Fairchilds & Co.'s Letter

New York. December 6.--(Special) )
 The market today was narrow af-
 fair, although considerable cotton
 changed hands at times in big blocks
 A prominent operator said to be very
 bullishly inclined, bought moderately
 at intervals and at other times bid a point or two below the market for large lines, withdrawing offers, however, when it looked as if he might get the cotton. Giles estimate of 11,S50, 900 bales. inclusive of linters, is encour- aging belief in government estimate around 11,000,000 without linters. an estimate of this size would doubtless cause a quick upturn In the market as mill and trade interests would probably become liberal buyers. The small Liverpool stock of American cotton is attracting attention as at the present rate of consumption the sup
 ply of American in that market would
 be exhausted in little over two
 months Liverpool. therefore. will un- questionably have to be a heavy buyer of American cotton shortly. Oil reached
