While Canada and the United States

English-speaking peoples. they are not

dore Perry's victory on Lake Erie hun

Curtailment in Orders and Weakness
Of Industrials Among Unfa-
vorable Features.

NEW YORK. November 22.-The stock
market of today brought to a close a
week of dullness which, for this sea-
son of the year, is almost unparalleled.
Today's trading was as coloress as on
the preceding sessions. and price changes
among the active stocks were trivial.
The amount of business was only about
$4,000 shares.
The market appeared to be lmperVious
to the influence of adverse factors. AS
the Mexican situation remains day after
day without significant change less at
tention is being paid to its bearing on
the course of prices. London's infiu-
ence in this market was neutral. owing
10 the irregular course of American
stocks abroad and absence of foreign
trading here
Curtailment in Trade.
The weekly reviews of trade told of
indications of curtailment In various
lines. Another disturbing feature was
the acute weakness of various indus
trial stocks, of which Mexican Petroleum
was most conspicuous. Within few min
utes after the opening this stock broke

The apparent Indifference of the mar
ket to these influences was ascribed to
the stability which 1t derived from the
short interest built up recently.
Improvement by Fractions.
Although there was little evidence of
efforts to force up quotations stocks i'm
proved fractionally throughout the active
list. Late selling Of Reading and Union
Pacific brought about reverse move
ment. however. SO that the close showed
no definite tendency.
The bank statement was disappointing.
Although a substantial cash gain had
been indicated by known movements Of
currency, there was an actual loss OF

which presumab bly, reflected the financing
of the week, and the net result was to
cut down the surplus by over Sc. 900.

value, $4,000.
United States bonds unchanged on call
on the week.

no new developments of a strongly bear
tsh nature and much OF the selling from
the short side appeared to be directed
against the long interest. The opening
was steady at a decline Of 3 to 10 points
Liverpool was much lower than due and
bears were good short sellers. Private
cables said that lower prices in the
English market were due to hedge sell
lack OF bull support. The market
steadied for a partial recovery around
the middle Of the morning. but the spot
situation brought out more vigorous bear
attacks than ever. and little later the
market developed Its easiest tone Late In
the morning the trading months were 10
to % points under yesterdays last quota
tons. The close was steady at q net
loss OF Is to q points. The weather
map was cloudy, but dry, and was con-
sidered favorable.

The cotton market had a tendency to
sag this week under liquidation by the
long interest and short selling from the
bear element which at times was rather
aggressive. The net results were a de-

months were to points over last
weeks close; at the lowest they were 30
to 45 points under. The range WAS 46
to 40 points.
Much of the liquidation of the early part
Of the week was due to bearish estimates
of the ginning figures issued Friday by
the census bureau. These reports caused
much long cotton to be thrown on the
market. While the census figures Of 1O,-
434. 1887 bales were just about what the
trade as whole looked for. they were
followed by moderately heavy selling
which put prices to new low levels for the
week At the end of the week bulls said
that the market was oversold and claimed
that the technical position WAS sounder
than for long time.
At times there we're many reports of an
easier spot situation. bearish traders
claiming that offerings. especially of the
low grades, were very liberal and that in
some instances cotton was being pressed
for sale. 1t was claimed that there was
no great demand. except for the better
grades which are growing scarcer.
Against the arguments of no spot demand
OF late bulls pointed out that mill takings
for the week were 100000 bales. against
47S 600 this week last year. They also
called attention to the fact that exports
thus far this season amount to 3,4S6. $50
bales, against ,3SO.O4 year ago. htten-
ton also was directed to sales of spots

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, November 2o-The cotton
market was lower today under more or
less general selling. which appeared to be
inspired by the talk of an adequate crop
following yesterdays ginning report and
an unfavorable view of general trade
conditions. The close was barely steady
at a net decline Of IL to 20 points. the
opening was steadied by renewal or tne
trade buying which had been considered
largely responsible for yesterdays rally
Support was not as active as on the pre-
vious day, however and first prices were
s to 8 points lower. An unsettled labor
situation not only in Fall River. but IN
other trades, and reports that the gov
ernment warehouses in India were full OF
cotton goods seemed to promote CONSIDER
able selling for short account. while there
also was heavy liquidation under which
active months soonr showed net losses OF
IA to IS points This break was followed
by slight rallies on covering for over the
week end. but the market remained very
nervous reaching the lowest point AT tne
close under continued liquidation ana
scattered selling, accompanied by very
bearish talk around the ring Local bulls
contend that the fixing OF prices on OLD
contracts by spinners at the present !evet
indicates a fair working margin, but some
Of the local spot people report very httie
fresh business. and it was predicted oy
local statisticians today that the weekly
reports on spinners' takinss will compare
more bearishly with last year In the near
future.
These predictions were probably based
partly upon the falling of In the export
movement while at this time last year
cotton was going out of sight very rapid
ly, takings for the week ending Decem-
Der q last season being the heaviest on
record. The weekly reviews Of some OF
the larger western dry goods distributors
showed continued optimism, but Fall
