COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK, February 3.-The cot
ton market was still extremely nervous
and unsettled today. Trading was
active and early fluctuations very ir-
regular. The opening was steady at
an advance of IA to 16 points. An ad-
vance to 1929 for May met renewed
liquidation from southern and commits
sion house circles, however. and the
report that diplomatic relations had
been broken was followed by a quick
break to 400 for that position. max
ing decline of s points from last
nights close. A quick bulge of 10 or
IL points followed, making 1t appear
that the Washington announcement had
been largely discounted.

GRAIN AND PRoDUCE,

CHICAGO, February 8. Although
wheat prices dropped cents on the an
nouncement that diplomatic relations
between the United States and Ger
many had been severed. the excitement
in the pit did not equal that which had
followed Germany's notice of unre-
stricted naval warfare. Nevertheless,
selling was conducted for ten minutes
with lightning-like rapidity. There was
no sign of a rally until May delivery
had touched LIS as against 1.60A to
1.61 at yesterdays finish. Then a re-
bound of cents took place, but fresh
declines Immediately ensued.
The wheat trade apparently had dis
counted today's news in advance, but

extent of the decline, however, was not

and a recovery of about was made.

In the main. however, the buying was
credited to profit taking by shorts.
In oats the action duplicated the
course of corn. Weakness was acute
during short interval, but the market
was far from being demoralized.
Provisions plunged lower with grain.
The breaks, nevertheless. were hardly
wider than have often resulted from
ordinary trade cases. Pork showed the
chief weakness, falling nearly so cents
