with the approach OF the holidays, but
reactions were comparatively moder-
ate and the talk around the ring has
reflected more optimistic sentiment.
Such items as the activity Of export
ers, the railroad rate decision, the
increasing business reported In the
dry goods trade, prospects for ma
terial reduction In the acreage next
spring and the failure of the big gov
ernment crop estimate to cause any
overwhelming pressure from the
south. have figured In the more bull
lfsh arguments.
The census report issued Monday
showed 1897, ,i89 bales ginned to
December 13 this year against 1870
727 In the big crop year of 1911, but
the amount ginned for the first half
of December fell short OF the big crop
year, and some Of the more bullish
traders question whether all the cot
ton actually grown this season will
be picked and ginned. Domestic mills,
however. are still said to be buying
slowly, and the market has met some
selling on the advance which is evil
IDENTIFY inspired by expectations that
the large available SUPPLY will yet
become source Of renewed weak
ness.
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 24.-While
there was much liquidation Of cotton
this week the market closed at a net
gain OF nearly dollar bale ON the
most active months. Investment buy
ing met the market on all recessions
and gave 1t a steady undertone. The
export movement was the main sup
porting influence. Foreign cIearances
for the week up to Thursday night
were 262.664 bales.
Some bearish comment was caused
by the large stock held in this port,
324 ,S21 bales tonight, but 1t was claim
ed that much Of this is not for sale
but is owned by, spipners. and spot
merchants, abroad and is being held
in storage here awaiting favorable OPP
purtuhities for shipment. This claim
was partly confirmed by spot brok-
ers.
The short week restricted trading
and It is probable that next week the
market will not be active, since 1t will
again close Thursday night. End of
December shipments may play an i'm
portant part in the trading as the
long side has made repeated claims
that they will be exceptionally heavy.
Bearish traders are inclined to the
opinion that the spot demand has
been SO heavy OF late, and clearances
so large that December engagements
have been fairly we'll defined and q
falling off in both the demand and the
movement from. the ports maybe look
ed for.

 Himself

Chrstiana. July 22.-Franklin R.

Gunther was guest, to shift her anchorage:
 ''The occurrence in question grew out Of the apparently great anger and violent attitude of a Norwegian harbor police of ficial because an English yacht had am chored in certain location in the har- bor. A prominent Norwegian gentleman and myself were guests of an American gentleman and his wife aboard the yes sell
 My sole connection with the affair was that I insisted that an American invalid lady on board should not be frightened and insulted by the conduct of the of. fieial. who unexpectedly climbed aboar, while the lady's husband. who had char tered the vessel. had gone ashore.
 There was no physical clash betweeI myself and the official. and the unscrupu lous published ex parte statements al to improper language having been use, by me are absolutely false. was in formed by the captain of the vessel tha he was perfectly willing at all times {, comply with the harbor regulations. However, my official position prevents me from giving the facts or expressin. my opinion regarding the conduct of tn official I have declined to deny or com ment upon the statements appearing il the Christiana papers and feel confden that the Norwegian authorities will talk, proper cognizance of the offense to my self and the others"
