Cotton Prices Plunge After Census Report Uplifts Harvest Forecast
New York dispatch reports cotton futures tumbling 30 to 35 points after a Census Bureau growers’ report suggests output above the government estimate. Prices in January March and May contracts slid sharply, with liquidations and short covering driving the market. The same bulletin tallies ginned cotton at 11,986,614 running bales through December 13, with state totals led by Texas and Alabama. Separate notes describe a Fort Gaines street Provo fire, a Barnesville cotton buyer’s suicide, and a giant regional storm bringing wide disruption from Winnipeg to New Orleans with high winds and snow toppled derricks and downed wires.
