STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Jan. 1S.-The stock mar
ket responded today to the favorable
turn of sentiment abroad over he Far
Eastern outlook and the notable strength
ening of the local money situation. There
was more active and broader mar
ket and during the final hour the trading
took on something like animation. The
same striking preference for stocks OF
minor railroads and industrials Tor specH
lative movements that has been in evil
dence for some time was the conspicuous
feature of the trading. New York Cen
trail and Louisville and Nashville achieved
a one point movement early in the uay
but il was not until late in the last
hour of the session that st. Paul moved
up 1 49, This exhausts the lists OF stand
ard railroad stocks which made any mo e.
ment worthy of notice. The Rock Island
stocks were taken vigorously IN hand,
evidently for a speculative campaign, the
common being lifted l 3-S and the pre-
ferred IL. The bonds of the Rock Is
land group OF companies made even more
sensational advances, the SIS assuming an
upward bound of 4 IL and the As :
points The industrial department OF the
market was rather broader. but was con-
siderably overshadow ed by the heavy deal
ings in United States Steel preferred. The
enormous absorption of the corporations
second mortgage per cent bonds had
marked sympathetic effect on the preferred
stock. The par value of the days sales
of the United States Steel End as ex-
ceeded that of all the rest of the bonds
sold during the day. This movement was
induced by the announcement that the
bonds had been listed on the London
Stock Exchange. This gave rise to an
ment to make market for the bonds,
was in contemplation. Similar expecta-
ton was an important element in the
Rock Island movement. Amalgamated
Copper rose a point. The few railroads
reporting gross earnings for the second
week in January made more favorable
comparison with last years corresponding
periods than was the case with the first
weeks earnings The Missouri Pacific
statement of net earnings for November
partly offset these favorable influences,
showing as it did decline in net earnings
OF $436,951, or over 33 per cent. Some
question as to the rate of dividend to be
declared tomorrow on Erie first pre-
ferred acted as drag on those stocks.
Money was offered with great freedom
and the rise OF sterling exchange towards
the gold export point was not the cause
OF any surprise or apparent uneasiness.
Bonds were firm with the principal
transactions in the issues above noted

Asheville, n. c., Jan. 19-Robert M
Wells, counsel for Congressman ]. NJ.
Gudger, Jr. returned from Washington
yesterday, where he has been in the inter
est of the contestee at the hearing before
the House Committee of the election case
from this district. When asked today if
he thought there was a chance of GudgeI
retaining lis seat, Wells said: Il think
certainly that the committee will report
in favor of Mr.. Gudger retaining his seat.
] judged from the questions asked by the
committeeman of the contestants attor-
neys that several of the committee did
not shink that the contestants had made
out a case. l do not believe that there
will be two reports, but if there should be
the majority report will certainly be in
favor of Mr.. Gudger." Wells said that
he was particularly impressed with the
personnel OF the elections committee, and
that he believed the committee was com
posed of fair and impartial men. He also
said that he did not think the committee
would make a report before the middle
OF February.
Thomas Settle when asked today wheth-
err his conversation With Mr. Roosevelt
last week related mainly to North Caro-
lima politics, or to Southern politics in
general, replied that conditions in North
Carolina was the subject of discussion.
THE object which l have in mind and
which Gen. Clarkson has in mind said
he, lis to harmonic the party in this
State. WHAT we desire is to develop the
partys voting strength, to obtain a vic
tory at the polls We wish to see the
party working together to carry the

Cotton Letter

| Raleigh. n. c., Jan. 1S-It looked to-
day az though enough cotton had been
sold by general holders TO leave the mark
ct in shape to respond to any new buying.
That is, Nav and July worked up to the
high level and held very firm. New Or
leans also got to the high price of the
season. Liverpool sold higher than before
this season. and things looked very
strong. The situation has many elements
Of uncertainty about it, and there was a
lot of cotton for sale on every advance.
This cotton has been pretty well absorbed
now and in the event of light receipts
for some time to come there is every pros
poet of higher prices. Still we cannot but
believe in taking profits on every advance
over fourteen cents as long as the prlce
does not work into new ground. We are
at a very critical point, cotton is being
distributed from all directions and until
there are evidences of a furry, induce
mentS to buy cotton are not what they
were lower If the price starts up now
and the market gets active, one can buy
with very little risk as lot OF cotton
has been sold and when the advance be-
gins it will go fast There was more ac-
tivty today and this is a good sign. Dur
ing the afternoon there was a better
trade and prices moved about more easily.
If all the cotton for sale between fourteen
cents and fourteen and a quarter cents is
taken care of, fifteen cents can be reached
very easily Liverpool is very strong, and
the situation begins TO look like another

NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, Jan. 1S.-The cotton market
opened firm at an advance OF to II
POINTS on covering, moderate bull support
and some buying for outside long account
that was promoted by the prospect fCr
light receipts for the day, firm cables,
a more peaceful view of the Far Eastern
situation and further reports of a good
spot demand in the South. Business, how
ever, was not particularly active. Shorty
after the opening there were indications
OF liquidation and when the Houston esti-
mate was received showing rather a
heavier movement, prices sagged back
several points. But there seemed to be
lllIle real pressure against Inc uIdIhtl
and shortly before midday the undertone
became very firm. Business did not pick
up much, but the expectation OF large
exports for the day and further price adj
vance rejecting frmness i'll Southern SPOT
centres and restricted offerings, and with
the. room element who had gone short on
the opening bulge attempting TO cover,
prices were worked rapidly upward, VIII.
July reaching a new high record for the
season. March at the best reached 400:
May 1920 and July 14.2S, the previous
high price on July having been l4.27. The
advance was chiefly in sympathy with
