Current A .
Cotton

Considering the short session, buSi--
ness IN the cotton market was OF good
volume Yesterday, and the TACT mat
this was largely brought about by ac-
tive buying of January contracts Tor
mill account was regarded as decldeoIy
gratifying by unprejudiced observers
In short, the opinion prevails tnat the
willingness of mills TO maze contracts
for the raw material az current prices
rejects an extremely healthy condition
n the cotton goods markets and makes
il plain that optimism prevails as 10
.ulure trade developments.
Although the Liverpool market, when
had its first Saturday session IN several
moaths, exhibited rather easier feel
ing than had been expected, 1t was al
mos. entirely ignored. In fact, 1t was
completely oversnadowed by the report
published in The Journal OF Com
merce.' making the condition OF the
crop 1915 per cent, drop OF Al points
IN the month. This was augmented by
private reports Of killing frost IN big
cotton producing counties OF Oklahoma
and Tennessee. although the expected
frost failed 70 materialize IN other
PARTS Of the belt. The buying on these
reports carried December and later con-
tracts up from to S points above Fri
days closing level, and it was a note
worthy fact that January contracts
were taken in large lots for large Phil
adelphia spot interests, for New Eng
land, North Carolina and Alabama
mills. and for the Southwest.

Car Shortage Hits Lumber.

Fear of serious car shortage con-
tinues 70 dominate the lumber market,
and all other factors are subservlent 20
this. During the last week there have
been indications that the car shortage
situation has begun to impress itself on
the buyers. and there mas been d re
sultant stimulation in the inquiry.
Mills, however, are handling orders
with increasing difficulty, and many
operations, especially those located on
branch lines, have been forced to close
down. The car situation appears 10
have affected all branches Of the trade
in about equal proportions, although 1t
seems TO be at its worst in the extreme
South. Aside from this very serious
obstacle, basic conditions in the lumber
market appear TO be unusually good

D p. Morgan is on his way to Lon
dan. where. together with his partner,

,rss financial matters OF great impor-
.,ree with officials Of the British gov
eminent Mr. Morgan sailed yesterday
o, the American Line steamship New
York. accompanied by his wife and two
daughter.
~ Wall Street il was surmised that
ur. MorCsn's departure at this time
meant that a new British loan would
probub,y be offered to American in
vcstors sooner than had been expected.
IL was admitted az the bankers Offices
that another collateral credit might be
arranged within the next three months,
bu. as 20 its size the statement was
made that the negotiations had not
progressed far enough for any definite
information to be given cut.
The continued strength on the Stock
Exchange Of the securities represent
ing the last S25O,OOO,OOO British loan
vas pointed out by a member of the
Morgan lrl as sufficient evidence of
the popularity Of the loan from the
investors viewpoint. The recent ad-
vance in the Angio-French bonds was
also referred TO as an indication that
another Allied Offering would meet a
favorable reception.
soon after the arrival of Mr.. Morgan
in London, M. Dawson, it is said, will
return TO this country. Arthur VI. An
derson. head Of the Morgan firms bond
department, has also been abroad sew
eral weeks, presumably assisting Mr..

Metals Discussing the effect on the
metal market of the 100000 ton copper
order placed here a week ago By the
Allied governments. THE Engineering
and Mining Journal says there Is no
need Of fear Of a shortage OF the
metal:
American consumers of copper were
represented as being confronted by
famine of their raw material. Judging
from that sort of talk, II was 10 be
inferred that a new buyer had sudden
ly grabbed one-third of the prospective
supply out of a market that is already
being seriously taxed by the needs of
current consumption. This is not so
not at all so. The Allied governments
made large purchases of copper in the
early part of 1916. contracting for de-
liveries ND 20 the end Of the year.
Il is the illing of those deliveries that
creates to large extent the streng,h
of the copper market now. The war
continuing and there is no reason 10
forecast its early termination was
TO be supposed that the Allies would
require as much copper as they are
taking now SO far as the statistical
position Of the industry is concerned,
there is no difference whether Grey buy
IL all in one transaction or buy about
81. 600 tons per month later. Either way
there is Just as much copper left for
other consumers; probably there will
be as large free surplus as there has
been during the latter part of 1916,
especially taking into consideration the
increasing refinery capacity
