TEMPER OF WHEAT
MARKET CHANGED
Prices Are Higher and Short Sellers Anxious
Because of Light Primary Receipts and
Unfavorable Crop Reports.
New Tori?. January S.?There was a
radical change In the leinper of the
Wheat market early in the week, exist?
ing conditions being diametrically op?
posite to those that prevailed In the
preceding week. Sluggishness and nar?
rowness was displaced by buoyancy
And rapid variations, .in.I the;,- was a
general awakening among the specu?
lative elements. At the outset strength
was largely ascribed tu nervousness
among shorts, owing t<> unlavo'rablo
weather news, the temperature being
low In the Southwest, as well as in the
Northwest. Ituymg was stimulated by
decidedly light primary receipts In the
Northwest, where the arrivals were
more than 50 per cent smaller than in
the same days last ye;.r.
Advices from the West Indicated that
professional operator* wen steadily
adding '?<> their large line <if May nil
Chicago, prompted by suggestions that j
ihe crop of spring wheat bad been ma?
terially overestimated. The belief in a I
. top of less than 2OO.fOO.O00 bushels, '
instead of vrt I.?><">.?"*?"?. according to the
filial government report, is greater.
K?rrners have already marketed ;i big
proportion of their surplus, anil dealers
anticipate large reductions in available
supplies ere lone. Demand w:>s accele?
rated partly by the encouraging cable
iulvtces. Kuropefut markets were
K'reng. influenced by the light world's
shipments^ the big decrease In the
quantity on passage, and the large re.
fiuction in the European visible sup?
ply.
The Week-r.nd Market.
Late in the week there was even
more striking buoyancy. Offerings
were small anil demand fairly ani?
mated, short sellers displaying in?
creased anxiety to cover, partly he
cause the big bulls still gave strong
support, white primary receipts coti
II ruled light it ml exports ftilrlj large.
It was the general Impression that tho
next visible supply statement would
I show an appreciable reduction. Crop
advices were unsuilefm tory. The crop
j In tin- Southwest presents an linfayor
j able appearanee. owing to the <???!<!
I weather, and the scarcity ?f snow prd
I tectIon. Reports from Kansas iitid
I Oklahoma, where the drought was mcst
I severe, stated that apprehension
[ winter-killing was entertained. Kur
I therinore. cable advices have been of a
I Stimulating character, Ktiropesii mar?
kets being lllllucnccd by the matetial
ly smaller exports from Arpentluu,
I mid from ether countries. It Is be?
lieved that jhe world's export* for the
week will be light; resulting In a tilt;
1 decrease in the quantity on passage.
Further large quantities of Manitoba]
wheat had been sold for forward ship- j
nichts via outports. but this cannot be
considered a bericllcini feature as far
as our markets are concerned. Ullr
markets are mainly Oil a domestic!
basis, for the time beinK. as we seem
to l>e out of the running as un ex?
porter, unless It lie of macaroni or red
winter wheat.
Crrater Acllvltj in t orn.
There has been i'titber more anima?
tion in UOrn, and a stronger tendem y
has .prevailed; but the lluctutitibits
were by no means wide. The strength
was attributed mainly to covering by
short sellers, prompted largely by fur?
ther reports of damage by drought in
Argentina, which lei t,, fairly big buy?
ing by exporters.
\ decided advance w as checked, how?
ever; by continued nhundnnt receipts

farmers were making fairlv large de?
liveries to country station.-.

INTEREST ATTACHES
TO GINNING REPORT
N>w Orleans, La., January 8.?The
I New Orleans cotton market tills week
will not open until Tuesday morning,
owing to Monday being the annlver
: sa'ry of tho battle of New Orleans.
, The tlrst thing Tuesda} morning, live
I minutes before the trailing In the fit.
I ture market, the Census Bureau will
' issue a report of the amount of cotton
tinned up to January 1. it hail fot
spine tune been assumed that this ro
? port would be of no special conse?
quence, but rumors- from the interior
; that gtnners were again increasing
: their working time, however, caused
? considerable Interest to be attached to
I the ilgures.
Tht average expectation is probably
I for a report of around 11.000.000 hales
which would mean that something over
[ 100.004 bales had been gained In the
i period between December Kl and Janu?
ary 1. In the same period last year,
: '.'>?.a0" bales were ginned. This in
' crease. It Is claimed, is due wholly
to the ginning of threshed cotton', that
j is. cotton that has 1.n threshed out
I from frozen bolls. Tuesday's report
iwill compare with 9.017,327 bales
ginned ui> to January 1 a \ ear ago, and
1 12.4C5,29S ginned up lo tin: same time
two years ngo.
\VItil ilie census report out of tliu
j ivay Uie trade will lie able lo give its
I undivided attention to the statistical
situation which is now unfolding It?
self in a very interesting manner. To
many the very large movement has
I meant thai the crop is larger than the
[popular estimate of 11,500,000.
I Hulls have argued ail along that
heavy movement had been the result
of heavy demand. l>urlng the last
week, port stocks increased while In
I terior stocks begun to shrink, and the
I visible Supply for the first time this
season showed a decrease instead of an
increase lit its weekly variation. It
is not Improbable thut statistics this
week will do much to settle the still
existing dispute over the approxi?
mate, size of crops. Unless develop:
j mcnts that cannot now lie foreseen
i arise, the market will he interested
i mainly by statistics for some time to
I come.
Recently made his will, naming this Company Trustee
for his wife and children. He understands the hazard
of guardianships, and has eliminated this risk by

them several Bank Presidents in Virginia), and others
would do so did they understand and appreciate its

the week, of which 50.000 were for
spot delivery, and for the tlrst threo
months of the year a fair total of

consisted of about -.000 bales of 1.70
and live-yard sheetings for China ship?
ment. Ticketed bleached goods for
the Jobbing trade are llrm ami an ad?
vance is pending In consequence of
the cleared up condition of stocks and
the unwillingness of mills to accept
further business unless there is a
margin of profit in the trading.
There has heon a better trade In
many of the fine wash goods which has
come principally In the way of re?
orders from jobbers. The first week In
the year Is not normally a time of
activity, hut during the coming two
weeks many of the largest jobbers of
lite country will be in the market, and
il is anticipated that operations will
broaden slowly. Cotton blankets and
napped cottons for the fall season are
to be shown next week.

the market, it was i nought by mer?
