REVIEW OF eoTTOU
. ter . Weather in. South Some :
V Varylrig Estimates Spin- v
'' .; oners'. Takings Large. -,'
IewY6rk, v Oct! ' 10. The cotton
market - has been generally unsettled
durinfthe iast week with prices sel
ling off nearly $5 per bale from the
high rfecbrdSf established just i- before
the-;publicatfbn of the last govern
ment crop : report. ;
Bette? weather in the outbj i ten
dency to revise some of the small; crop
estimates- circulating earlier in the
month, , and an easier turn in the
Southern; spot, markets have! : been
partly responsible for the selling while
after an advance of nearly three, ients
a pound since the middle of last Au
gust, there was naturally an accumu
lated -speculative long, interest 'whiclf
his doubtless been much: reduced on
the reaction. ? Unfavorable trade ad
YiceS .from abroad and continued talk
of -lahor. roubles m Lancashire have
also encouraged the more bearish ay:
erage of sentiment but judging from
much of the talk around the ring and
the.; published ; opinion of many local
houses the selling has been more on
the expectation, of-a' bettervbuyng ba-"
sis than in : the hope of a permanent
decline. -The tendency toward Increas
ed, estimates of ; the. crop has been en
couraged to some extent "by a. 'private
estimates of r 15 J500.00 hales;, including
linters, and the favorable average of
crop news from the Eastern belt.
.There have been other estimates;
however; ranging from only 12,800,000
to 14,550,000 and there have been lit
tle or no improvement in the charac
ter of . scattering crop1 reports from
west of the river which at the end of
the -week was threatened with 'renew
ed ' showers;; and .lower .temperatures,
southern spot markets have eased off
in. sympathy, with the decline in. fu
tures, but bulllshly . disposed - traders
claim that offerings ot Jboth spots jurd
contracts-have -been absorbed on a
scale down by trade buyers and-that
the .liquidation on the .break from
13,83 ;toi '12.90 tor January : contracts
has placed ; the , market in a stronger
technical position.;: Spinners', takings
for - the "Week. Were . again largely in
excess of last year and so far but lit
tle cotton appears to xe reacning New
York from the South, as the certifi
cated stock here is still but little over
the 6,000 bale mark.
