COTTON MARKETS
Market Dips Moderately When
Hedges Sold Against Fri
days Spot Purchases.
Saturday Afternoon. Dec. :

HAtufudN RlAtf IloNus lee e.
Some weakness developed in the tu-
ture market during the short session,
when a few people sold hedges against
spots purchased yesterday in the belt.
this being helped by some liquidation
based on the smallness Of tRkines by
spinners. The dip did not extend far,
but there was very little support and
finals were near the bottom.
In New York prices were As to 20
points to the bad. while New Orleans
finished So to 81 to the bad. tone called
steady in both ceuters. Liverpool on
Monday should be II to lJ points off
TO make response.
At the opening prices were moder-
ately lower, rejecting the absence OF
buying power and expectation of hedges
to be turned loose. January opened at
$3.50 in New York and in a short while
had touched $3.50, but recovered to
$3.50, later dropping back to 1855. Al
though the takings were bearish, there
was a considerable relative decrease in
the visible supply, due to the light
ness OF movement to market as COM
pared with last year.
The weather continued favorable all
over the belt and the statement in the
government monthly bulletin late yes
terday that the crop had been in
creased by such conditions perhaps
helped induce some of the hearish feel
ing. Prospects were for no material
change over the weekend.
In the spot department there was not
much change. although quotations were
raised at New orleans and reduced at
Texas centers. Sales were fairly large,
Memphis selling 1900. New orleans
1883, Houston $3.50 and Dallas 9,402.
The ginning report will be issued at
the opening Of the market on Monday
and the figures will compare with
9,713, 500 last year and 10, 1852, 031 two
years ago. Traders seem to be expect
ing about 900, 900 this season.
