The clouds that lotted tie Industrial
horltoa and the sunshine that covered the
cotton belt yesterday made another euj
day for tbe bears In fact the bullish
operators were entirely divested of nerve
The Issuance of a very pessimistic bulletin
from the bureau failed to arouse the slight-
est Interest and from the spirit of the
trade one night conclude that henceforth
the speculative mind will be only absorbed
In the postburcan lltersturo that relates
to supply Tbe appearance of British crop
Azores Is to be early reckoned with and
the seal of the Washington statistician
i will soon be set until the Ides of Decern
berThe
The resnlt of the day cleary demon-
strated the Importance of frost Regard-
less of the trepidation which a large part
of the trade seems to fo l about the cor-
rectness of conditions as portrayed by the
department the fact can not be disguised
that the short looks to the later growth
for his own saltation Rod that the dato
of the kitting night will do more at this
itlme to settle tbe problem of supply and
demand from tbe speculative standpoint
than other considerations combined The
meatber was more like spring than early
winter and bears made tbe most of the
opportunity There can be no rtonbt that
tbe confidence of Investors was shaken by
the complications n labor matters that
exist In almost every part of the country
Tbose prominent operators at the me-
tropolis by whom It was said a bullish
campaign would be led took no bne
0lsl part la the proceedings and the
train in money circlet on Wall street
to after the late relief furnished by
ihe secretary of the treasury contributed
I s listlessness tbat well salted the pur-
poses of the bear There was no substan-
tial support to tbo long account and
lit < lug did not take on healthy propor
tiona until bottom prices came In sight
At tbls time bulla were more conspicuous
traders Ob the belief tbat tbe short
Ude has accumulated a dangerous load to
ai 17 should there be news of reverse
iteather or should tbe movement show a
derided change long commitments were
moro freely given There was ample mod
11 a Hon In the statistical position to Justify
cautious ettp on the part of beers The
moderation was meat pronounced nt tho
primary sources of supply and with ex-
ports still reflecting a favorable demand
abroad It was not dlfflcult to foresee u
shrinkage In seaboard supplies Estimates
of semiweekly nrrlrsts at thirteen of the
leading Interior markets ranged near the

100000 mark while receipts for the same
time lest year amounted to 118000 Ar-
rivals at outports since Friday showed a
shortage of 23000 bales In sympathy
with futures that spot market ruled weak
but without that pressure from holders
that frequently suggests big things be-
hind
Liverpool was still without a guiding
line for either class of operators dales
on the spot amounted to 12000 bales at
quotations lower by 4100d Contracts
made a loss of 5 to 0 points on tbo close
While the English market Is waiting It
may be well to note the evolution of the
actual stuff
New York opened 3 down on October
and practically unchanged on later por-
tions A slow advance of 3 points in the
early moments made the best of tb day
and formed the level for trading through
most of the first hour A sudden decline
followed with a loss equal to twice tho
gain and as noon approached tbe initial
prices were recovered and maintained for
thirty minutes after which tbo course
was steadily downward with weakest
prices near tho close In the net result
October November and January lost 4
points December 3 and tbo other months
went 0 to 7 points lower
Now Orleans started 2 to 3 up on near
and as much lower on later months An
Improvement In the early moments brought
tbe beat of the dsy after which there
was a quick loss of 3 to 0 points making
the range until lust before noon when a
good part of the loss was regained a
reaction soon began and touching bottom
prices within an hour formed a level from
which thero was little variation during tbe
balance of tbe bcmIoo In tbo not result
October and December dropped 0 points
November 7 and the later options lost 3
to S points Sales at tho four American
markets amounted to 3803 bales Spot
quotations ticro lowered 5 points at New
lork V at Now Orleans and clicwhere
left unaltered

Falrcblld St Hobson wired from New Or-
leans The weekly weather report was as
bullish as ever especially as to conditions
In Texas where excessive rains and in-
sects are reported tomato rtone farther
damage The late rains are said to have
caused cotton to take second growth but
It Is thought the season Is too far ad-
vanced to permit couch of tho ton crop
to mature Living In the hope of thero
being a late frost tbls year shorts as n
result of the general rains in Texas oro
looking forward for a largo top crap In
that Ptftte and as there was pome improve-
ment noted in tbe reiiorts from tho South
Atlantic States this week professionals
sold tbe market with a free band It was
known In early hours that there was but
very little doing In spots that offerings
were being tnudo nt a fnll of Vic under
board quotations and factors were anxious
hellers This feature coupled with a lib-
eral run of receipts nt the ports created
some consternation among timid longs
Thero was on effort on tbe part of room
professionals to force Involuntary liquida-
tion but It was hardly successful Invest-
ors accepting nil offerlugs nt n price
Apparently there Is but little demand
for the staple at quoted markets neverthe-
less thero Is no lot up in heavy Interior
demand Exports since Friday 02700
ngainst 70818 last year since September
1 777009 against 470423
Tbo movement Ibis woek will probably
be as large If not larger tlmu last year
but tho chances nrc since American mills
ura consuming tuoro cotton weekly and
there being more at sen than Inst year
tbat tho vlslblo supply will favor tho long
side
