SMALL NET ADVANCE IN COTTON MARKET
Stimulated By Re port of Heavy Buying
 For Russian Use

New Orleans, November 1S-AAfter a short period of depression around the opening today, cotton reacted and went to small net advance, standing above the level of yesterdays last quotations during the remainder of the session and closing at net gain of to points.
 The lower prices in the early trading were due to a poor Liverpool Buying was stimulated by the report that heavy buying recently in the American mar kets was for the account of Russian interests. report that German spin ners were again buying and storing cotton in this country also increased sentiment in favor of the market. Bull traders claimed that there was better feelig generally in the spot department but the export movement remained small, foreign shipments for the day being only 1S,S10 bales, as against re- ceipts at ports of 24,S75 bales. The lat ter were considered very light for this, time of the year.
 To some extent the market was helped by the weather over the cotton region and the storm warnings for the South Atlantic and eastern gulf states.

COTTONP NPR|CESSHOW STEADY UNDERTONE
Opened at a Decline But Steadied Under the
 Foreign Buying

New York November 1s.-The cotton generally steady undertone with January advancing from 11.6o to 1175 and closing at 11,n The general list closed steady at a net advance of to II points,
 The market opened steady at decline of to 5 points in response to relatively easy cables with December selling at l. 45c, March at 1t.S5c, and May at 12o2c on the call. There was some Liverpool selling here at decline, but otherwise market soon steadied on covering, re- newal of demand from the brokers cred- tied with buying for Russian account yes- terday. and local bull support
 Reports of unfavorable weather for saw ing cotton in the south and further advance in sterling exchange, probably contrimuted to the rather more bulish av- craze sentiment around the ring, while there appeared to be feeling that the technical position of the market had strengthened sufficiently to make it more sensitive to buying orders demand failed to broaden on the advance which carried Dec emher up to 11.60c, March to 12.02c, and May to 121Sc during the early after noon however, and the market later re- acted several points from the best under realizing and a renewal of bear pressure.
 At times there was a fair volume of trading around the ring. but general com mission house business was quiet, and may have been restricted to some extent by nervousness over international politics or uncertainty as to the showing and ef- feet of the census ginning figures on Monday. Very few orders were received here from the south, but private spot advices reporting an improved spot de- mand doubtless helped the rally during the middle of the day. Russian interests are estimated to have purchased contracts between 5000 and 4O,00o bales in the mar ket here since yesterday morning.

Princes at Eton
he Dundee Advertiser.

Eton will bear with equanimity the news that 1t is to receive the second son of the King of the Belgians as a pupil, for Eton is the least snobbish of schools, and receives princes of all kinds and all races with admirable inpartiality. At the same time princes at public schools do have one small advantage, as witness the story of one of queen Victoria's grandsons. who wrote to her majesty limiting that d tip would be welcome. A reply came admonishing him not to outrun the con- piled: Don't bother about the tip now sold your autograph to another chap for i6 bob.

Charles Fairchilds & Co.'s Letter

New York. November 1S.--(Special.) ) The future market today, although slightly higher, is still listless. dis piriting affair, from bull standpoint. A prominent broker is credited with having bought about 35.000 bales of July during the last few days for Russian account These purchases, however, seem to have had no effect upon the attitude of the bears, who were cred ited with free selling towards the clos ing today.
 As long as the south maintains it's present indifferent attitude as to the disposal of its spots. and mill inter ests show no apparent eagerness to enter the market aggresively for the actual cotton. a deadlock is apt to pre- wall which will very likely result in a narrow trading market for sometime to come. at least until we get closer to December 10, when the government will issue it's estimate of the total yield However, meantime, efforts may be made to depress prices and if success ful. we think purchases of March and May extremely advisable
 Oil is firm. but the volume of bust ness is small. We expect. however. sv

Avery's Letter

There was persistent buying of July today by Bashford and Hayden x Stone. The selling came mostly from professionals, whose position Is based on nothing better than the theory that prices go down easier than they go up. There was little of especial in terest in the news of the day one way or the other.
 Sterling exchange was quoted at 4.6Shc, which is an encouraging fact, Liverpool was said to be buying in small lots in New York today and Gle venberg, whom I consider to be the best judge of ring sentiment in New York, said there was more bull talk around the ring than for sometime.
 Consider this accumulation of July as being very significant, for, If we are to have genuine bull market this is the month in which the highest prices will be se.p. Another significant fact, as indicating the percentage of the gin ming that has been done, is the weight of the bales of cotton coming into mar ket at the present time. They are said to be running from 32O to 420 pounds. which Is one of the surest indications that picking and ginning has been al- most completed.
 If had no cotton I would go long over the ginners, as firmly believe the private reports were purposely put out too high, so as to allow interested ones to pick up some cotton.
