WAR ON SPECTATORS
SLOWS UP DEALINGS
Small Turnover Recorded
Opening Heavy; Middle
Strong.

NEW YORK, Nov. ia pro-
rounced diminutlon of operations,
probably due to the more stringent
measures taken against speculative
trading, was the outstanding feature
of today's business on the stock eX-
change. Dealings dwindled to the
small total of $4,000 shares, or less
than the average weekend session.
Stocks opened with a heavy tone,
rallied irregularly and fell back at the
intermediate stage when inactive spe-
cialties broke one to five points.
Prices rallied materially in the last
hour on a sudden inquiry for shipping
at gross advances of three to six
points. Industrials and rails tecov-
cred more moderately. but tho entire
list except for isolated shares, closed
at rallies of one to three points from
lowest levels
International bonds improved
slightly, but domestic issues were ir-
regular. Liberty As ranged between
$3.50 and 1924, closing at $3.50, the
9iss falling from $3.50 to the new
minimum of 9S46. but rallyng to 90
and closing at 9S.94 Total bond sales
at par value, S4,120,000.

ANTICIPATED ARRIVAL
OF CORN CUTS PRICES
Market Closes Nervous; Oats
Score Advance; Provisions
Lose and Gain.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1j.-Lil<elihood Of
increased arrivals of new gram did
much today to make corn prices aver
ase lower. There was a nervous close
al the same as Yesterdays f,nish TO
&c down, with December $l.19tS and
May $l.15 TO $1.15ls.
oats scored a net advance of sc to
sc. Latest figures on provisions va
riod from &c decline to a rise Of 55
cents.
Despite some rallies the corn mar
ket\ during most of the session dis
played a tendency to sag, especially at
the outset and near the end. Notices
of enlarged consisnments from Iowa,
reports that several leading specula
tors on the bull side Of the market
had been called before the federal
district attorney and eastern railway
embargoes and fresh efforts of the
food administration counted against
advances.
Evidence of an active demand from
the seaboard cities lifted the oats
market.
Provisions had good support from
stockyard interests. The chief basis
for purchasing was talk Of making the
minimum prices of hogs SIG.

Stock Market Review.

(StrAndberg McGreevy & Coz
With news influences of a conflicting ma.
ture the absence of any definite or reliable
information as to the Russian and Italian
situations and with nothing new from Wash
ington, Thursday market assumed an atti-
tude of marking time. The scope was narrow
and listless with trading in small voluIe.
No special pressure was noticeable except
in Utah Copper, which sold off more than
two points, and Reading, which declined a
couple Of points after having been consistently
strong for some days
No particular explanation was offered for
the losses in Utah, and Anaconda, excepting
increasing operating costs and let-up in
business as shown bv the September quarterly
report, which includes the period Of labor
trouble
The Russian situation remains a mystery
and will continue so until direct news from
Petrograd is received. Slight credence is
given to dispatches thru Stockholm concern
ing Russia this source has repeatedly
proved unreliable
II is TO be expected that the market will
continue to churn in waiting attitude until
there are developments, either from Europe
on the war situation, or from Washington
on the rail hearing.

New Orleans Cotton Letter.

(Strandberg, McGreevy 4 Coz
Altho foreign political news was consd-
cred generally uniavOrable overnight, the ten.
dency OF market was higher levels this morn
ing, owing TO strength OF southern spots and
small losses to tonnage by submarines, etc,
the past week, the British having lost only
one ship over / 600 tons the smallest loss
since the beginning of the submarine warfare.
Nothing definite has come out Of Russia of
late, reports conflicting with one saying
there are rumOrs that Petrograd is in flames,
another that Siberia has declared its inde.
pendence.
There is an increasing demand for spring
and summer months the incentive to buy
being the big discount at which they are
selling compared with middling spots, and
they are displaying comparatively more
strength OF late than near positions. Eventu-
ally they are expected to command a premium
We favor buying for a long pull, especially
on. important depressions, March, May and
July preferred as the maturity stocks are
likely to be smaller, prices probably higher.
Cotton goods continue firm with an active
demand for private and heavy makes, and
the tendency is TO new high levels.

COTTON MOVES HIGHER
IN CAUTIOUS MANNER
Heavy Selling Stimulated at
Top by Report Of Big
Ginning.

NEW ORLEANS, Nov 15.-The
general trend of cotton here today was
periods of uneasiness and at times a
reactionary tendency which traders
with bearish inclinations claimed was
due to top-heaviness consequent upon
recent heavy buying. At the highest
levels heavy selling was stimulated by
the report that a private bureau had
returns indicating a ginning for this
last period Of 100000 bales against
$4,000 the same period last year.
The market reacted sharply to a level
only 20 points above the close of yes
terday. Last prices showed net gains
Of II to 43 points.
