Cotton.

The reports Of British victories on
the Western front caused sharp ad-
vance in the cotton market yeste rsay.
All months made new high records for
the season. with January selling az
2s.46, or SO points above Tuesdays
close and IS points above the low level
OF the morning. That delivery closed
az 2s43. with the general list closing
at net advances Of y to 81 points,
The market opened az a decline Of o
to 10 points under liquidation and re-
slizing and sold IT TO % points net
lower right after the call. The easier
tone at Liverpool contributed 70 this
decline. The weakness abroad was
considered partly due TO prospects for
increased tonnage. Houses with Liver
pool and domestic trade connections
were buyers on the decline. The mar
ket soon steadied, later becoming &C
tive and excited on covering BY early
sellers and a renewal Of general buying
inspired by war news.
While tae ginning Of s,559, $3.50 bales
prior 20 November IL may have been a
disappointment 70 come recent buyers,
the talk around the ring reflected no
general disposition 20 modify estimate
Of the crop. MANY traders compared
the returns with these for 1915, when
1872 per cent of the total yield had
been ginred up 70 the date in question.
On this basis it was calculated that the
report pointed 70 yield this year OF
approximately l0,s00,000 bales, exclud-
ing linters. No change was reported
in the ocean freight situation. A rate
of $40 is still said 70 be bid for room
to Liverpool, and Notwithstanding the
British government. allotment Of space,
local exporters say they find it impos-
sible to secure room for December sail
ing There was talk of an easier spot
basis. which seemed reasonable enough
considering the rapidity OF the advance
in contracts. but a good demand was
also reported in the Southwest for the
purpose Of filing out November en-
eugements. Exports for the day we're

Wheat Receipts at interior points
were slightly larger. but the movement
as whole is still running far behind
last year. According to THE Price Cur
rent" the new winter wheat crop is IN
good condition, except in parts IF Kan
sas and Oklahoma. where drouth still
p7tinues, and it is feared that unless
rain comes al once the plant will go
into the winter in a condition to be
badly damaged by unfavorable weather.
Reports from Australia say that there
is a reduction Of fully 90 per cent in
the wheat acreage. but that there is a
visible supply there Of 1l4,o00,O00
bushels, and this years crop indicates
a surplus Of 100000 bushels.
