New York Futures
New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, November 2S-Liquida- tion was in evidence during the greater part of the session here today, but the undertone held steady and declines were only moderate. There were flashes of strength, during which small net rises came about, but prices were depressed most of the time Selling was mainly
 in the way of liquidation over the holi- day, many longs desiring to even up their commitments over Thanksgiving.
 The opening was at the decline and prices lost IS to 20 points in the early
 rading. This soft spot attracted fresh buying and the loss was recovered, January going couple of points over yesterdays close. Further sags fol- lowed but in the early afternoon the market bulged sharply burst of buying and went to 2 points over yes terday's final quotations. This was the high of the day. Closing prices were un- changed to Il points down, compared with yesterdays close.
 Rumors of Italian successes against the Germans were the strongest in- fuence of the session. working for val ues and. also, buyers were encouraged by reports that the French government was consummating a deal here invoiv- | ing 60000 bales of high grade spot cotton which, at present prices, represented s9,- 1 OO000. Shorts did considerable cover ] ing on this feature.

TRADING IN CORN
 WAS VERY NARROW
Oats Held Firm, While Pro- visions Went to Record
 Levels on RumOrs

Chicago, November 2S.-Waiting for the
 much talked of increase of receipts tended today to hold corn inside mar row limits, prices closed unsettled, S1.207s to y1.21 January, aud $i.1Ss to SL19 May, with the final Fange as a whole 5sc off to 1ac up, compared with A hours before. Oats showed no change. Provisions advanced 32c to sec net, ex- cept November lard, which declined 2oc. Only a slight improvement in the mum 1 Der of railway cars available was yet
 noticeable, and primary receipts and shipments of corn continued to be well
 under last years figures. Besides, coun- try offerings remained light. Under
 such circumstances the prospect that enlarged arrivals of corn would result from government orders giving prece- dence to railway shipments of all ce- reals did not weaken prices in a last ing manner. After an initial sag, the market hardened on account of evening up for tomorrows holiday and because of temporary sharp bulge in the value of oats.
 Unconffrmed reports that Baltimore was reselling oats wiped out an ad- vance in the oats market hete. The up- turn had been based chiefly on reports of a continued demand from the sea- board.
 Provisions jumped to record breaking high levels, owing to talk of immense government contracts having been placed. Pork coined holders $50 barrel, flat.

COTTON SHOWS AN IRREGULAR STREAK
January Closed at 29.31c, While General List Went
 Off 7 to 15 Points

New York, November 2S.-The cotton market showed renewed irreguiarity to- day with the tone rather nervous. all though selling appeared to be chiefly in the way of realizing, and offerings were absorbed by trade buying on de- clines. After selling at 29.1Oc early, January rallied to 29.44c and closed at 29.s1c. with the general list closing easy at net loss of to 15 points.
 The market opened at decline of 5 to % points under overnight selling or ders, easy cables and reports of in- creased southern spot offerings The market was soon steadied, however, by the buying of houses with Liverpool and domestic trade connections, accompanied by reports that domestic mills were fix ing prices. As prices worked higher, early sellers turned for cover. and buy ing was stimulated during the early aft ernoon by reports that estimates of the east Indian crop were being reduced by not less than 20 per cent. For a time prices seemed responsive to compara- lively small buying orders, but in- creased realizing was encountered around 3025c for December and 29.05c for March, or about unchanged to 10 points above last nights closing figures. There was also some scattered south ern selling and last prices were several points off from the best in consequence.
 There were reports early that cotton could be bought on a tenderable basis in the south, but the rally during the middle of the day was accompanied by claims that the slight easing in basis had brought in a good demand from domestic mills, and that southern hold CTS were firmer. Except for the Liy- erpool and domestic trade demand. busi- ness was considered largely in the way of evening up for the over Thanlxsgiv- ing day, or pending fresh developments in the south.

STOCK EXCHANGE DEALINGS LIGHT Rails Were Again Heavy, Several Issues Going Off
 1 to 3 Points

New York, November 2S.-The impend-
 ing holiday and the more drastic resu-
 latiens adopted by the stock excnange
 against professional trading were III
 themselves sufficient to effect decided
 diminution of operations in todays mar ket.
 TO these factors were added the con-
 flicting adviees from abroad, such as
 the reported peace negotiations between
 the Russian radicals and the central
 powers and Italy's further successful de-
 fensjye. Exchange on Rome failed to
 respond to the latter development, how ever, and remittances to the Scandina- vian countries were scarcely altered. de- spite the reported German threat to seize Denmark.
 Rdiis were again consistently heavy, several of the high-grade issues yield ing 1 to almost 3 points. The new low records were established, Pennsylvania falling fraction to 457s and Baltimore and Ohio yielding II to 491s. Changers and transcontinentals reacted 1 to 7 points, with minor or low priced rails. Industrials were less susceptible to pressure, although losing ground in the more general setback of the last hour.
 Motors and a handful of specialties registered extreme gains of l to S1a points, but these, too, were shaded at the heavy close.
 Announcement of the placing of sew eral large war orders with some of the leading equipment companies failed to
 stimulate issues of that division. United States Steel continued it's narrow move ment of recent days, closing at s7, a
 loss of B of a point. The net result in related stocks was quite the same. Liberty issues contributed largely to
 the irregular bond market, the 4s sell ing at 97.92 to 9S, and the 31as at 9S.yt to 99.12 Total sales of bonds, par value, aggregated 8, ,325,O00 United States bonds
 (old issues) were unchanged on call

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, November 2S.-(SpecialD Early in the day the trade was influ- enced by the same reports that were current yesterday of more cotton for sale at the present range of prices. Rumors of an Italian victory and of 20 per cent decrease in the Indian crop brought buy CTS in the afternoon. A nervous market resulted; trading is largely confined to spinners' orders and trade interests. None care to take a decided position before a holiday, with all the political events which might occur, but the market shows more strength than expected.

 Cotton jumped about. the market being very irregular. Quotations opened to 9 points off on overnight selling, and southern spot offerings. Later in the day. however. early sellers sought cover.

Over s. R. Stewart & Co.'S Wire


 New Orleans, November 2S.-Over-night news presents the Russian situation in a far more critical stats than before, and London says it is one Of the main objects of the Paris conference. Wash- ington says official information points to German influence in the Petrograd administration and the possibility of Rus sIa turning into an active ally of the central powers All shipments of supplies from this country and Japan to Russia will be cancelled immediately. This would indicate a further cutailment in the foreign consumption of cotton. Wash ington comment says the situation IS considered serious, as in the event of an
 understanding being reached, the Rus sian supplies of oil, foodstuffs and cot ton would become available to the enemy. besides the large number of prisones who would be released.
 Copenhagen says behind the meeting of the Scandinavian ruler lies the fear of Norway entering the war. causing com plications and new issues in the war sit- uation.
 Of strictly cotton news, there was the report from Yazoo City that since Au- gust l. 24,495 bales of cotton were mar keted against 16.90s last year, showing the larger yield in some localities. Hous- ton, Tex. says the Texas department of agriculture says 5000 acres in Galveston and Harris counties are infested by pink boil worms and that immediate steps have been taken to cope with the menace. Our market opened 10 to 20 points down on the unfavorable foreign news. realizing before the holiday, and indi- cations of unfavorable weekly statistics on Friday, but the tactics of buying on all depressions has proved so profitable and has become so generally adpted, that good support of this nature was encour- aged on the break and the market re- covered to last nights closing prices inside the first hour.-John F.

one transaction alone involving 60,Oo0 bales. The spot market was quoted quiet and unchanged. with middling 20 13c The opening was at a decline and in the early trading prices were IS to 20 points off, not few longs showing the desire to even up over the holiday in the American markets. In not a few cases such sellers appeared to be as bullish as ever and the conclusion is that much of this cotton will be replaced at the first favorable opportunity after the holiday Reports that the Italians were more than holding their own against the Germans stimulated buying for both accounts and the decline was covered, January showing a net rise of q couple of points Sags carried the market again, but in the early after noon a sudden bulge occurred on which most active months went to points over the close of yesterday.
 The market retains its good tone an1 the liquidation which has come out thfs week has made for a healthy techntcsa position. Further reactions are bound to come about, but we doubt if they carry the market very far berore new buying of consequence is met. The market closed unchanged to il points down com pared with the close of yesterday. .-Shep- ard & Gluck.
