this is only cotton that was sold some time

the large, amount of low grade cotton in the
South Will finally out its way for delivery

the dark. the high grade cotton is so scarce
that sooner or later those low grades will find

Future Grain and Provision,

CHICAGO, Dec. 13.-The moderate frmness
that developed in the wheat pit late in the
day was due chiefly to winter conditions that
prevailed throughout Minnesota and the Da-
kotas, threatening blockades and de-
creased receipts. During the first part of the
session the market held steady. Offerings became
scarce during the last hour, and this partly
accounted for frmer feeling. The market closed
