PRICES At NEW LOW
LEVELS FOR WEEK
Fluctuations Again Narrow
Decline Widening to 5
oiiito

New orleans, January 29.-The cot
ton market fallowed today the pro-
gramme that has been observed nearly
in the early trading was succeeded by
downward movement which put
prices to new low levels for the week.
Fluctuations again were narrow, trad
ing was not large and was chiefly for
professional account.
Selling appeared to be based chiefly
or the belief that the filling of JAN
uary spot engagements was bound to
result in falling off in the spot de-
mand. Offerings We're heaviest after
the posting of local spot quotations,
showing a reduction of one-eighth for
the day and putting them a quarter
of cent under the high levels of this
week
First prices were at gain of to
points on a steady tone. Cables were
better than due and in the early trad
ing the market stood to points over
yesterdays close. Scalpers met this
small advance with some little short
selling and the market commenced to
sag. AT noon the advance was wiped
out and replaced by a net decline of
a point: in the afternoon the decline
was widened to 8 to points. The close
was steady at practically the lowest OF
the day.
For some time the market has been
paying much attention to the large
money markets but the lowering OF
rates today by both the Bank of Eng
land and the Bank of France had no
Influence on prices, although bulls
commented on 1t freely. Weather con-
ditions In the western belt took a turn
for the worse without bringing In buy
ing orders.

MARKET GIVES WAY
UNDER PRESSURE
Reading and Steel Were
Singled Out for Bear
Attacks

New York, January 29.-The stock mar
ket gave way today under pressure which,
although not severe. was applied stead
lily by professional operators. At the be-
ginning of trading the movement was
confused and irregular. but as the ses-
sion advanced the tone became distinctly
heavy. Reading and Steel were singled
out for bear attacks, ana, together with
New Haven, New York central. South
ern Pacific, Smelling and few other
representative stocks at times showed
losses of a point or more. Selling was
not on large scale until the last hour,
when the shorts got the market fairly
in hand and the list sagged sharply.
The trading elemenr was ranged on
the short side. In fact, speculative opin-
ion for several days has inclined to
the belief that substantial reaction
was due, as a natural sequence to the
recent advance, but outside buying mas
continued in sufficient volume to retard
the movement Today the shorts were
assisted by various new influences of an
unfavorable nature. Denial that Read
ing was contemplating segregation of
its coal properties, which might nave
bestowed valuable rights upon share
holders accelerated the decline in that
stock. Southern Pacific's December state
ment was exceptionally poor, showing a
decline in net of $4,000.
Another disturbing feaxure was the de-
cline of low-priced stocks, some of which
have been strong recently. Rumely
shares were acutely weak. The common
dropped 3s4 to 11s4 and the preferred
61s to 261s. both new low records.
1t is probable that the decline would
have been more severe had 1t not been
for extensive purchases here for foreign
account. Both London and the continent
were in the market for stocks, taking
10000 or more shares on balance. I'm
provement in sentiment abroad was asso-
ciated with reduction Up the English and
French bank rates. Such an unusual
change as a drop of l per cent in the
English rate ordinarily would be expect
ed to find immediate reflection here, but
even such striking evidence of improv-
ing monetary conditions was ineffective,
in view of the prevailing tenor of spec
ulative sentiment
Bonds moved uncertainty. Total sales,
par value, $2,960,000 Panama 3s regis
tered advanced 1s per cent on call.

DECLARE SUGAR
COMPANY NO TRUST

New York, January 29.-F'urther testi-
mony tending to show that the American
Sugar Refining company, defendant in
federal dissolution proceedings under the
Sherman antitrust law, is not in a po-
-sition to restrict competitor in the
sugar industry was introduced today at
the continued hearings of the govern
ment's suit.
Wholesale grocers of Syracuse Roch-
ester and Utica, N Y, testified that the
price alone determined at which re-
hneries they bought. Roberts Wallace
OF this city. testified he had been in
formed that Japan had bought 150,OO(
tons of Cuban sugar, entering this mar
ket for the first time. The witness
thought this might affect the price OF
the staple.

WHEAT CLOSES WEAK
UNDER WEDNESDAY
Snow Goes Far Toward Re.
moving Dread of Injury
by Cold Wave

Chicago. January GA snow that acted
as blanket for winter crops went far
today toward removing dread of threat
ened injury by a cold wave. Largely as a
result the wheat market closed weak, $50
ssc under yesterday. Corn finished 1sQ3sc
to &C down. and oats off shade. In
provisions the outcome was an advance of
7l4a1214c to l5c net.
1t was not until near the end of the
session that the bulls lost control of
wheat. The fact had then become ap-
sown grain snowfalls were preceding the
expected drop in temperature. Buying en-
thusiasm, however, was already on the
wane because of signs that the cold
would not be long continued. or unusually
severe. and because of disappointment at
the stopping of export inquiry.
Advice that Baltimore export houses
were offering to resell wheat at 1ac under
the current prices at which last week
hard winter grades were bought in Chi
cago for ocean shipment, had a depressing
effect on the market. On the other hand,
word came after the close that some re-
lief was at hand in the form of greatly
reduced freight rate on wheat milled in
transit for export by way of Kansas City
to the gulf.
Big houses which have been active buy
ers of corn switched to the selling side in
the last hour today. Receipts were much
over the estimate, and there were as
sertions that damage in Argentina had
been vastly distorted.
Oats eased off with corn. Advices that
the yield of oats in Argentina would be
small and of poor quality had bullish
influence during the first half of the
session.
Provisions developed strength in con-
sequence of a falling off in hog receipts.
Packers seemed inclined to help nurse
the trade.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, January 29.-(Special.) }
After some activity at better prices the
market lapsed into dullness and on
selling by New Orleans with limited
demand sagged to the close.
Speculation has not developed from
the better trade outlook and while the
demand in the south continues the
doubt exists that 1t will last through
the coming month. Should the con-
sumption continue there will be greater
inducement for buyers here.
The larger crop ideas act as de-
terrent and on improvements the mar
ket Is well supplied while at declines
spot houses are purchasers.
Trading was mainly local.
