NEW CROP ACCOUNTS ARE NOT FAVORABLE. FOR A LARGE YIELD

New Orleans, March 1s.-F1uctuations last week carried the price of cotton
 both above and below the close of the previous week, the range being g to 74 points, Good recoveries were made late in the week and the close showed a net
 rise for the week of 3 to 26 points. The closing session was the most remarkable
 of the week, prices rising steadily in
 the face Of the threatened railroad strike.
 The main bullish features of the week were the broadening spot demand and the conditions surrounding the start of the new crop. Against values were polit- ical conditions abroad and the railroad
 labor crisis. Toward the end of the week, the embargoes on freight had the ef- feet of causing spot buyers to withdraw
 from the market, but the total turnover
 for the week was of encouraging volume.
 Total spot sales were 20, 100 bales against
 E, ,255 this week last year.
 The new crop accounts were consid-
 cred unfavorable, on the whole. too lit- tie rain being reported in the west and
 also complained that young cotton had
 been affected by cold spells. This week the market will probably
 be dominated at first by the deevlop- ments in the railroad situation. The political news also may have some in- huence, the American markets of late having shown something of disposition 1 to f1uctuate in sympathy with Liver pools price changes based on the Euro bean situation.

FEVER|SH BUYING OF IRON AND STEEL
 DESPITE ADVANCE

New York, March 1S.-The extraordi- nary pressure upon the steel mills is clearly evident from the placing of con- steel products since the startling price advances in various products were an- nounced. To this must be added the booking of contracts for 100000 tons of pig iron at steadily and sharply advanc- ing prices. The buying of steel for build ing ships and construction of railroad equipment are most conspicuous.
 The railroads placed contracts for 50. 900 tons of standard section rails. In the aggregate railroad orders amounted to 10000 tons
 Ship builders on the Atlantic and Pa cific coasts placed orders for 750o0 tons of plates and shapes Shipments will ex- tend into 1919. Tn addition the awarding of contracts for battle and scout cruis- CTS by the navy department calls for nearly 100000 tons of steel plates and shapes, including hull and deck, but ex- elusive of armor plates. The burden of supplying this steel for the government ships will fall almost entirely upon the United States Steel corporation.
 Orders for F more merchant ships
 
 and the builders are seeking to place orders for 70,00o tons of plates and shapes. The largest interests are now asking cents per pound for marin@ steel. Inde- pendent mills have again advanced prices $l0 per ton, now asking 71a cents per pound for ship plates
 More than 50,oO0 tons of wire products have been ordered but most of the busi- ness resulted from the closing of con- tracts upon which prices had been sub- mitted before the last advance.
 Structural steel contracts closed amounted to 75,000 tons, including plain and fabricing material. Prices of rail road spikes, bolts and nuts, structural and boiler rivets and steel bands have advanced from $5 to s10 per ton. Pig iron is fevershly active and somewhat excited. buying extending into 1918.
