New York Cotton

NEW YORK, Oct. tPl.-The Govern
ment october cotton crop forecast issued
this morning brought liquidation into
cotton futures with the market dropping
into new low ground for the day.
The Agriculture Department estimated
1858 cotton crop at 15,596,00O bales,
which was 431. 900 balees above its esti-
mate of a month ago. The department
estimated the yield per acre at 1854
pounds, which is a new record.
Selling met fairly good trade and
local demand for contracts. To some
traders the crop report simply meant
that more cotton will have to go into
the loan to have any bolstering. effect
on prices later on in the season. The
early movement of cotton into the loan
is the second highest on record with
predictions in the trade that the move
ment of cotton into Government hands
this season may be well over million
bales.
Noon prices were 25 to IS cents a
bale lower than the previous close
October 32.38, December 1888 and
March 32.99.
