COTTON IRREGULAR

Cotton closed at a net loss of about a

seemed to he very little disposition on
the part Of traders to follow advances.
According TO the Census Bureau the
amount OF cotton consumed by American
mills IN November was $4,000 bales,
against 100000 bales last year. The
total for The season was 1.977.00O.
against 1911 900 last year. This was
. gain OF 100000 bales for the four
months ended with November. The
consumption OF linters amounted 20
$4,000 bales for November. compared
with $1,000 bales last year.
Stocks Of cotton on hand show n
considerable Increase over last season,

are concerned. Spinners hold 1.6l3.000
