Cotton Prices Tn
AS Sellers Cover
On Bullish Outlook
Government Crop Condition
Estimates Not So High
as Expected; Years Con-
sumption Shows Increase

The governments cotton crop report,
indicating a condition Of TAI and a crop
prospect of 12,519,Ooo bales, was only
slightly under the average expectation
based on recent private figures. 1t
proved the signal for profit taking by
recent sellers, however, and the cover
ing movement was stimulated later in
the afternoon by bullish view Of end
season statistics as compiled by Secre-
tary Hester Of tho New ORLEANS
Exchange.
According to this authority, the COM
mercial crop for the season ended July
81 amounted to 12,443,1S0 bales, and
the worlds consumption of American
cotton was 100000 bales, compared
with 1O,620,0 the previous season.
The indicated worlds carry-over Of
American cotton was placed at $685.
600 bales, compared with 6,S240O last
year, including a million bales of
linters this season, against 100000 a
year ago.
The advance here extended from
29.75, the early low level, to 1898 for
December contracts, and the market
closed very steady at net advance of
35 to 1902 points
The market was nervous and unset
tied during the earlier trading, with
sellers finding encouragement in the
European political news, the failure of
stocks to improve OH the railway rate
advance, continued depression in the
goods trade and continued goodgrowing
weather in the South.
FIRST prices were to 16 points lower,
with active months selling about Is
to 80 points below last nights closing
figures before the end of the morning.
The governments crop estimate was
hardly enough under expectations to
promote any fresh speculative buying
or to bring in trade demand, but COW
erlng was active after the severe de-
clines of the last two weeks, and prices
showed advances of 1O5 to 1913 points
from the low level Of the morning. The
close wa several points off from the
best under realizing.
Owing to the bank holiday, the Liv-
erpoo market was closed, but houses
with Liverpool connections after SELL
ing early became heavy buyers on the
afternoon advance. 1t is generally be-
llevcd that the crop has shown a fur
Their Improvement since the data for
the government report were gathered
and the trade looks for a favorable
weekly report from the Weather
Bureau tomorrow.
Yesterday was the first day of the
new season and no exports were re-
ported.
Southern spot markets were % points
lower to so points higher, the rallies
being in the Southwest, where prices
were relatively easy at the close of
lasS week. The lowest quotation for
mlddllng cotton was reported at Hous-
ton, where the price was $500, COM
pared with 31.7O, the closing quota
ton for October contracts in the local
market.
The local market for spot cotton was
quiet and unchanged at 40 cents; no
sales were reported

German Marks Hardly Safe

Question-Please inform me what your
opinion is- OF the German marks checks
as a safe investment for a speculative
turin. e. X.
Answer-German marks are not an
investment at all, in our opinion, but a
gamble. Germany has been turning out
paper money as fast as the printing
press would run, and how it will be re-
deemed, in view of the heavy burdens
placed upon the country by the peace
treaty, no one knows. There may be
some of the elements Of investmen in
some Of the German city bonds, which
are selling at or above par in Germany,
for they pay interest and presumably
will be worth something at maturity,
no matter what happens to the specie.
If you speculate in marks you will not
get any return unless the currency is
deposited in a German bank. In any
case, you pay 10 per cent German
tax on your yield.
