MARKETS
New Orleans Cotton Review.

NEW ORLEANS Dec. 30.--Cotton on this
market last week went TO new high record
levels on both spot and contracts. While Q
holiday feeling was much in evidence, good
demand developed in both departments aud
prices responded readily; On the week end
spots were 100 points higher than the ,losc
OF the preceding week at S0.13c for mid
ding, the highest price in this market in
over fifty years. At the highest levels,
futures were s5 to 107 points W, net. The
close showed net gains of 70 to 102 poiuts,
January traded up to 80 soc, the highest
future price ever iccorded in this market
The market was sustained chiefly by the
demand for actual cotton which appeared to
come from belated December spot shorts
and peace talk was q sustaining influence
for while. and 30 was the rather large
export movement which promised to bring
the total clearances for the first five months
OF the season up to 2250, 900 bales.
The taking over OF the operation OF the
country's railroads by the government was
an important buliish feature and traders
renewed their forecasts OF a probable DO.
nestle consumption for the season OF s,000,-
600 bales.
This week the market will contend with
more or less OF holiday feeling both
American markets being closed Tuesday,
while, Liverpool vill be closed Monday and
Tuesday.

Cotton Cloth Review.

NEW YORK. Dec. 3o,-The year end quie,
in cotton goods trading has been farked by
an unusual firmncss in values. Wide print
cloths held steady Gnd offerings rom second
hands have been very small The sheeting
markets showed lituo or no change and with
mills sold closely up for months to come
buyers find it difficult to secure many con
siructions wanted for quick use.
The dominant influence Is the demand for
ferchandise for war purposes and the prob
able lack OF supply of many conventional
goods used in civilian channels. An average
taken of prices current on % leading lines
OF cotton domestics shows rise OF so per
cent in a year. Many goods are up 100 per
cent, but some others only 30 per cent, the
latter instances being OF merchandise not
being produced because looms have diverted
to government uses.
Quotations were mota or less nominal as
follows:
Print cloths, 2s.inch. 64x64s &c; 64x60s,
