LARGER VOLUME 0F
 TRADE IN COTTON
Nearly Normal Conditions Rule and Prices Fluctuate
 Over Wide Range
Rate. Bid. Asked.

New Orleans, November 27.-Condi- tions nearly normal ruled in the cotton future market today. Trading was the largest in volume of any day since the market reopened and prices rose and fell over a comparatively wide range. Some little speculative interest was shown in the situation, brokers reported outside inquiry and houses with for eign connections did a fairly good bus mess for German account, spinners and spot merchants in that country appar- ently hedging against their wants in the line of raw material into the spring months.
 The net results of the days trading, on both styles of contracts, was a gain of to points. except on new style January, which closed unchanged. At one time prices were to Il points over Wednesdays close. The strength of the market in the morning led to buying on the part of scalpers and these trad CTS tried to take profits in the after noon with the result that prices fell off to about the level of last Wednes- days close, doing little better toward the end of the session.
 Exports attracted considerable at tention and helped give the market a good tone For the week. foreign ex- ports were 245,6555 bales, this being the first week of the season when ship ments went over the 200.000-bale mark. The absence of large December deliv- cries in New York was another bullish feature of the day.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-11-28
NEW YORK MARKET IS MORE ACTIVE Close Shows Net Advance of From 2 to 6 P0ints-In-
 terest Br0adens

New York, November N.-The cotton market was rather more active today and ruled generally steady. with the close showing a net advance of from to 6 points. The first December notices were estimated at only 700 bales and brought no pressure whatever against the market. On the contrary. there was good de- mand for the near months from Liver pool or local shorts, as well as some buy ing by spot interests. and that position sold up to 7.4S or 12 points net higher and within points of the best price reached since the resumption of business.
 Liverpool made steady showing over the local holiday with prices couple of points better than due at the hour of the local opening and the market here started steady at an advance of 1 point to a decline of point. The firmness of the near position. and the small notices as compared both with the local stock and with the sv interest still out standing for tb.s " delivery gave the general list one and prices soon worked hi e who bought December appeA selling May, while others bought -.4ay and sold De- tober and there was q considerable de- mand from Liverpool or other foreign sources.
 After showing a net gain of from to P points, the market reacted under realiz- ing, but at no time during the day were offerings aggressive and local brokers said that interest appeared to be broad ening. Exports for the day were smaller, but southern advices indicate that many steamers are chartered to carry cotton, and German interests were said p be in the local market today trying to ar- range for direct shipments to that cetn' try.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-11-28

was expected taat large tenders would be made today on December contracts. but the small stock here Is considered to be so valuable that tenders were very small and had no effect upon tho mar ket. Buying of December by Europe against short contracts and buying Of the distant deliveries by houses with foreign connections gave us an advance early of some or 10 points A portion of this improvement was afterwards lost on scat tered hedge selling and some sales by local traders who remain bearish because of the large stock of cotton known to be in the south, which they expect to. weigh against the market On the other hand, there has so far been no heavy selling of hedges by the south and our domestic splnners have not bought freely ahead nor has there yet been felt tho full effect of an investment demand which is apparently awaiting some such setback in prices.
