COTTON BRACES Up
IN THE AFTERNOON
Following Dullness and Some
Weakness Closes at Net
Advance

New Orleans, November 2t.-After dull
ness and some display of weakness in the
early trading. the cotton market today
braced up in the afternoon and closed at
a net advance. Throughout the session
fluctuations were erratic and nervous and
many times prices took on most unex-
pected turns. The main feature of the
day was the census bureau report on
ginning up to November IA. The returns
amounted to 10,434,SS7 bales. which just
about met the consensus of opinion.
On the opening the tone was steady and
prices were to 10 points off under selling
from the short side. Liverpool was de-
pressed, which intensified the effect OF
offerings. First prices were the lowest of
the day, as shorts wanted profits and
fresh buying for short account sprung up
at the decline During the morning the
market moved up and down in a nervous
way Soon after the first call trading
months were at a net advance of 8 to
points, but this was followed by a 10
point sag. At noon prices We're only a
couple of points over yesterdays close.
In the afternoon there was better tone
in evidence and the market closed almost
at the highest at net rise of to 10
points, December showing the least
strength.
Mill ta.llings for the week We're large,
Hester putting them at 100000 bales
against 47S,000 this year and 39S, 600 this
week two years ago. They helped the
market to some extent

COTTON UNSETTLED
DURING PAST WEEK
Optimistic Views of Crop
Cause Prices to Work
Lower

New York, November 21.-The cotton
market has been unsettled during the past
week with prices working lower owing to
more optimistic views of the crop, and
rather less favorable impression of gem
eral trade conditions. A break below
Ii cents for January at the opening to-
day. however. attracted heavy buying
from trade sources, which led to reports
that spinners We're willing to fix prices
very freely at prevailing quotations and
the market showed moderate rallies at the
close. The most discussed features of
the week were the new differences estab-
lished by the revision committee at its
meeting on Wednesday and tn report of
the census bureau showing 10, 4S4. .3S7 bales
of cotton glnned to November IA, which
was issued at the opening today 1t
seemed the general impression that the
Increased penalties on low grades as ap-
piled to deliveries on New York contracts
had strengthened the position of this
market In its relation to middling cot
ton OF other markets and the action of
the committee was followed by consid-
cradle straddle business in the expectation
of a narrowing differences between New
York and Liverpool. This factor, how
ever, was considered more important from
the standpoint of PARTIES, than in con-
,nection with ultimate trend of prices
while local bears contended that the
heavy ginning between November / and IA
strengthened the larger views of the crop.
Reports of labor troubles in Russia, con-
tinued nervousness. over the Mexican
situation, less favorable trade advices
from the middle west and threats of a
strike for higher wages in Fall River
seemed to be largely responsible for the
bearish views expressed in some circles,
but have been offset to some extent by
the continued heavy spinners' takings,
while local bulls reiterate their small crop
figures on the ground that ginning to
November IA represented an unusually
large per cent of the total On the whole
the developments of the week have prob
ably failed to bring local crop Views much
nearer together and final sentiment in
that respect is now said to depend largely
upon the showing of the next ginning
report which is due at the opening on
December s.

LOSS IN ARGENTINE
LARGELY REDUCED
Wheat Closes 3-S to 1-2c Net
Lower as Result-Heavy
Selling of Corn

Chicago November 21-Wheat closed
weak. asd1ac net lower today. mainly on
official figures. largely reducing the loss
in Argentine. Forecasts for better wealth
er caused an easy close in corn, with
prices at a net decline of sm@c to &c
Affected by other grain, oats finished at
Ad7sc net lower. Provisions weakened
shade to 20 cents on a drop at the yards.
Official figures at hand today indicated
that the loss on wheat in Argentina would
be only 5 per cent on a million and
quarter acres. In addition to this weak
ening cause the market was depressed by
prospects of large world shipments for
the week. Some strength was shown
early because of active buying of Decem-
Der wheat as a sequel to the activity
in that option yesterday, but the uplift
was short and unimportant. Some of the
pit leaders threw wheat in plenty on the
market. attracted by feverish little rallies
and the resultant easing of values was
aggravated by reports of good rains over
night in Kansas and the consequent de-
preston of southwest quotations.
Heavy selling of corn by one of the
of better weather, which was expected
to facilitate movement of the crop; pros
poets of increased arrivals at Kansas
City and continued large receipts at Oma-
ha were especially prominent among the
bear argument.
Oats continued weak and the market
was narrow all day, nothing occurring to
offset the effect of the ease in other grain
pits.
The drop in hog prices at the yards
was followed by heavy selling, which
was said to be for local packers. jan
uary pork was the only option to show
temporary strength. but early buyers be-
came sellers and at the close pork led
the decline.
Future quotations were as follows:

TONE IS SOMEWHAT
BETTER IN STOCKS
However, Little Occurred to
Distinguish 1t From Recent
Listless Sessions

New York, November H.-There was
little to distinguish today's stock market
from the sleepy sessions which have pre-
ceded it this week The tone was some
what improved. At the outset there was
a small decline owing presumably to the
artificial influence of the dragging market
for American stocks in London and the
sharp break in copper metal prices
abroad The market showed greater re-
euperativeN resiliency than yesterday.
Opening ksses We're soon regained, some
of the leaders rising well above the pre-
vious closing.
Speculation dwarfed as the session ad-
vanced and prices eased off slightly from
the high point, but there were no signs
of general weakness despite marked
heaviness in individual cases.
The firmer tone of the trade was due
chiefly to the strong technical position
which induced shorts to cover whenever
they were able to procure stocks at re-
cessions.
Heaviness of the coppers acted as a
pressure on the whole list. The break in
London metal quotations was followed by
the report that some producers were offer
Ing copper in the domestic market at 15.
Pessmism was increased by news that
reductions in working forces heretofore
confined chiefly to steel mills had spread
to other industries. A cash gain for the
banks on the week was predicted in spite
of the shipment of 81, 100000 to Canada,
making the weeks shipments to the Do
minion $S500,000 Further shipmeG<s
across the border are expected on ac-
count of the extensive movement of Can
adian grain export. Much of the grain
is going forward through American points
and selling of grain bills here replaces
the large balances to the credit of banks
of Canada. Bonds were less stable than
stocks despite cessation of liquidation of
some issues.
Total sales, par value, $1,2S0,000. United
states bonds were unchanged on call.
