day to Liverpool. where 1t is understood some London spectators sold out their holdings in a limited market. Much of their cotton came on arbitrage transac- tions to this market, supplying the west ern and the local buying on the idea of peace.
 In the last hour the western houses sold rather freely and as no new buyers came in, the offerings were too much for the local traders. One hears many pre- dlctions as to what will occur in cotton when an armistice Is declared But 1t is noticeable that the cotton goods mar let is lower and that all commodities as well as stocks, are impressed with the thought that when the war Is over there will he a readjustment on lower levels on values. Whether cotton will re- sist this general tendency when the Ger man committee takes charge of imports, is as yet unknown.

GREATER CAUTION
 SHOWN IN BANKING

New York December 15.-Dun's review tomorrow will say:
 The outstanding and most reassuring feature od the business situation, as 1t has been for sometime, is the increased caution manifest in banking, producing and distributing channels
 Foreign developments have aecentuated the tendency toward wholesome conser- vatism, without anecting the progress of finance, or lessening the volume Of transactions in trade and industry. and recent speculative readjustments have made the general outlook distinctly clearer. Prices, moreover, no longer are soaring in nearly all lines, though strength continues pronounced in many quarters, and buyers. while operating with sustained confidence, give more con- sideration to the element of cost in mak- ing commitments for the futures.
