NEW YORK COTTON
Special sirvice to The Herald by J. C. Wil
son. 212 West Fifth street. Los Angeles.
NEW YORK. Dec. 9.'—Up to the publication
of the' government cotton crop estimate today
price changes were unimportant, with the
trade nervously awaiting the figures. Today's
receipts at leading points show In the aggre
gate a falling off as compared with last week
of about 9000 bales. The estimate of the gov
ernment placing the crop at U, 4:16,000 bales, not
Including llnters, wan published at 2 o'clock,
and was considered very bullish. The market
Jumped half a cent, establishing new high rec
ords for the season. It will be a relief to the
trade to have a report of no much Importance
out of the way, as now the spinners and all
others concerned In cotton or cotton goods can
adjust their ideas as to what a crop of less
than 12,000,000 bales Is worth per pound and
act accordingly In their operations, either spec
ulallvely or for their milling purposes. The
large short Interest was most likely, covered
to day. Spinners' takings for the week are
84,000 bales more than last year. Exports for
the season thus far are about 15,000 more than
last year.

CHICAGO, Dec. 9.—Wheat—A range of %c
in the active trading future, about as much
abuve as uelow yesterday's closing levels,
tells the volume of trade in wheat today.
Trade was almost as narrow as the fluctua
tions, but stubbornness was disclosed on
cither sid". Conditions not materially dif
ferent from yesterday, harvest is under way
and favorable conditions In Argentina and
cargoes are being offered freely In Europe at
easier prices. Dry weather conditions in the
winter wheat belt In this country, with the
result that cash wheat is firmly held every
where, although the demand keeps very poor.
Primary receipt! larger than a year ago, part
of increase 'lue to strike northwest and part
due to larger marketings southwest, where
arrivals are over three times as large as a
year ago and were stimulated by the recent
snows. Whtli the buying today was quietly
done, it was persistent and on a scale down
by brokers and commit houses who usu
ally act tor larger elevator Interests.
Corn ruled generally higher, December gain
ing material!) on th« deferred months, but
none of the futures holding their entire early
gains. There was further selling by Influ
ential Interest! a good part of the day. Koine
of the I cal longs took advantage of the
early sew ell to unload. Dec-, m. er tightness
due to the general complaint of car scarcity
coming from country dialers. Receivers here
i-ay receipts would be double if cars we.
available.
< tats ttade not large. There was some cov
ering early by t-horts, who were Influenced by
strength in corn. Moderate selling pressure
paused a reaction later from' high prices,
most if early fractional advance being lost.
Liberal trade In provisions. January shorts
did a lively dance, longs pioddel the Bliorts
in all months and supplied them with product
leisurely on the swells and there was ma
terial progress in the way of upward ad
justment of product to hog prices.
