GINNING REPORT
CAUSES ADVANCE
Census Bureaus Figures In
dictate Bearish Showing Con-
trasted With Estimates.

NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-The Census
Bureaus report on the ginning of
cotton for this season to October
Is was announced just before the
opening Of the market this morn
ing. 1t made a bearish showing
contrasted with the Agricultural
Bureaus report Of October 3 that
it's. low condition figures of 42.2 per
cent for September Is had then in
dicated a total crop of 6,537,000
bales without linters. The report
had been discounted to such an
extent in the selling movements
and sharp declines in prices the
last three weeks that there was
general covering movement Of
shorts regardless of how its figures
were construed. Previous to the
announcement of the report there
had been a big advance in spots
aud futures at Liverpool due to a
general covering movement there
on the greatly improved European
political situation with the collapse
of the former Austrian emperor's
efforts to regain control. and also
the passage of the Irish crisis.
Liverpool spots went up 81 English
points to the present basis Of 12-20d
pound with the days sales 1000
bales. while futures closed near the
top at a net advance of 81 to 20
points for the near months and so
to 46 from March to next July de-
liveries. Our market would have
gone up in sympathy with Liver
POOLS rise. even II the Census Blu
reau's report had come as high as
100000 bales as estimated in
~-NI -,
the National Ginners Association.
Its actual figures were 5,477,397
bales as ginned to October Is.
against 5,754,5S2, the amount ginned
to that date a year ago when the
total crop turned out 13.27O.oO0
bales, or more than twice as much
as what the Agricultural Bureau
has estimated this seasons crop to
be. Local statisticians are figuring
out this seasons crop from today's
ginning report as likely to turn out
between 100000 and 5000, 900
bales. The total amount of the
crop ginned in the previous report
of the Census Bureau to Septem-
Der rs was 2,923,127 bales. The
final ginning report of the Census
Bureau for the season will not APP
pear until March 20. 1t is impos-
sible therefore to believe that only
100000 bales of cotton remain to
be ginned to confirm last months
government indicated drop of g.
$4,000. There were many traders
here who were willing to back
their opinion that the crop would be
at least 100000 bales and prob
ably larger. q. %

The latest combined Federal Reserve
statement as Of October 10. indicates
that slower rediscount rates, or an in,
crease in idle funds. is near. Two.

100000 IN q year and $4,000, 900 In

veStMent'' rediscounts since the FIRST
Liberty bond eompaign.
There was contraction Of s36..

one week. On the other hand. deposits
OF member banks were nearly S15.-
0O0,Q4O larger. Reserve requirements
were thus s21.O0O.0 900 less than on

Gold Exceeds Circulation.

Decline In money rates follows the
course OF commercial loans. Even at

form only little more than a third
Of total loans. A year ago they were
over half. Commercial loans are 81

Commercial Loans Decline.
Ease in the money market did not
manifest itself until the primary and
fundamental business Of the reserve

the reduction Of commercial loans.
These now total $4,000, 900, against

Meanwhile there has also been no
unnecessary contraction Of the re-

it has declined 20 per cent. or slightly
more than half OF the decrease in the
