COTTON MARKET
HAS FIRM TONE
Condition Attributed to I'M
proved Demand From
Exporters

New York. January 21.-Reports of an
improyed demand from exporters i'm
parted a generally firmer tone to the
cotton market during today's trading and
the close was firm at net advance OF
from 9 to % points
The opening was firm and from to Il
points higher on better cables than due
and private advices attributing the Eng
Iish strength to American and continen-
tai buying, and a better inquiry for
actual cotton. Spot brokers were around
the ring, with March buying orders and
as early reports from the south indicated
that there had heen an Improvement In
spot demand at yesterdays decline shorts
here evidently became somewhat uneas ;
and prices improved further. Late in the
forenoon old crop months were from IA
to % points net higher.
Around these figures demand was less
urgent, and the market, which had been
active during the first hour became com.
paratively quiet. Occasional realizing by
recent buyers for a turn caused slight
reactions from the best during the aft
ernoon but on setbacks of to s points
offerings were well absorbed and the SELL
ers did not become aggressive. Reports
of further good spot sales in New Or
leans today helped the market again in
the late trading and final prices were
within a point or two of the best.

VERDICT REDUCED
IN SUPREME COURT
Mississippi Tribunal Cuts
$1,000 Verdict Against
the /. c. to $500

Jackson. Miss, January 21.-(Special)-
TIE supreme court expressed itself yes
terday morning as being rather tired Of
great big verdicts against railroads on the
most trivial charges and declared that
the lower courts are going after the pub
lie service corporations too heavily. This
expression from Justice Reed was brought
OFT by the record in the case of the
Illinois Central VS. A. ?. Dacus, from
Montgomery county. Daeus and two
friends, II Is alleged applied to the ticket
agent at Winona for three round-trp
tickets to Memphis. They were handed
one-way tickets and called the agents
attention to the fact they had asked for
round trips. The agent 1t is claimed de-
MED that they had done so.
The railroad was sued for damages and
the jury awarded them $1,000. The su-
preme court holds that excessive and
granted the railroad a remittitur of $500.
The attorney for the three men was
communicated with by telephone and
az eed very promptly to accept the $500
The city of Meridian loses its grading
case and will have to pay the damages
claimed by the Hester Coal company.
Parrish & Co., cotton buyers, win their
suit against the Yazoo and Mississippi
Valley railroad for failure to furnish cars

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, January Election fu-
lures opened stead" at an advance o1
6 to 10 points on good cables and re-
ports from New York of a better ex-
port demand. The weather map was
called unfavorable as too much rair
was shown over the cotton belt. Ner.
yous shorts bought covers freely
around the first call, and 1t was ths
opinion of many brokers that strong
interests were again taking the Iona
side with all the buying bearish. SEN
timent remained strong, and sufficien;
cotton was offered TO check the rise
and bring about reaction At the
highest In the early trading pricese
were II to 13 points up. At the end
of the first half hour of business prices
were to 10 points up.
Around the middle of the forenoon
the trade developed strength on the
report that spot interests were buying
March against sales of the later po-
sitions. This caused considerable COW
ering of short cotton because of the
fear that the operations in the AIN
uary position against the shorts Nigh;

ADVANCE IN CORN
TAKES GRAIN Up
Failure of Liverpool to Re-
fleet Domestic Weakness
Strengthens Grain

Chicago, January 2i-CorIH, advancing a
cent led the grain markets upward to-
Gay. Provisions declined 21sc Wheat
opened higher because Liverpool failed to
reflect the domestic weakness of Tues
day. A decline ensued on flatness in
the spot market and then a recovery oc-
CURED on reports of export business.
There was another slump when it was
reported that the latter traffic was in
old Manitoba. In the end report from
4ew York that 40 loads had been sold
abroad. and the pronounced strength of
corn caused another enhancement.
The trade had hardly started downward
again when the close of the trading ses-
sion came. Business was active in the
last hour Among the considerations
which influenced the pit was a report
from Manitoba. 1t said there was enough
steady export business to check any rad
ical declines and decline of points
in the condition of wheat in France as
compared with year ago had its eff
feets.
Corn was steady all day. Argentine
news was the important factor. Corn
In Buenos Ayers advanced an extreme
1isc bushels an acre against an average
yield of s5 bushels. Provisions closed at
the top assisted by oats. The close was
unchanged TO NC higher for May oats.
There was an improvement in the In
vestment call. Corn strength vas an
other bullish factor. There was a slight
up in the demand which has kept PRO-
visions on the up grade recently due to
liberal hog receipts at primary points
though these were 24.0oo head under the
receipts of year ago.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. January H.-(Special For
eign advices were much better than an
ticipated, opening the market here at q
good advance and steadying the tone
which has been good during the entire
dav with the Improvement well held.
Good buying by spot houses has been
marked feature with good demand
for nearby positions.
The market had been confidently over
sold and some covering of the recen.
short sales has increased the demand.
Selling has been mainly to take small
profits, the steadiness Of prices hardly
justifying the expectation of an imme-
date decline.
The advance was we'll held to the close.

DU[LNESS PERVADES
MOST OF SESSION
Stocks Rise Substantially
With No Marked In
crease in Demand

New York. January 2l-with no marked
increase in the demand prices of stocks
rose substantially today Dullness per-
vaded most of the session and there was
neither enlarged public buying nor a
change in market factors of sufficient
import to account for a rise amounting
to more than points in Union Pacific,
2 or more in Steel, Reading. Amalga-
mated and Canadian Pacific and a point
or over for long list of other issues.
The rise apparently was due in large
measure to covering of short contracts.
There was no hurried buying such as
would indicate forced retreat of the
bears. although in the last hour prices
rose rapidly enough to indicate more
urgent demand. There were evidences of
heavy buying for the long side.
Coppers which were conspicuously weak
during the decline displayed considerable
strength. London metals We're steadier
from the outset following the recslt
breaks. There was further irregularity
among the specialties. Cotton oil sold 4s1s
a decline of IL points from the high price
of 1912 reached in November. INTERIOR
ough stocks were depressed by opposi-
tion to the proposed subway contracts.
Tobacco shares were strong and firm.
Lcpdon which sold stocks rather freely
Eero yesterday, was today a buyer. TAX
ing about 10000 shares.
The first of the large railroads to re-
port its earnings for December was the
Baltimore and Ohio, whose statement
disclosed further gains, amounting to
s1,114,o0o in gross and s239,0oo in net
Some accentuated advances were made
in bonds, but the chief movement was
narrow and uncertain. Total sales. par
value, s2,050000. Bonds of the United
States were on call unchanged.
