the attention of the country this
morning was conferred on contests
three states-Michigan, Idaho and
New Mexico-which will decide
whether the Democrats shall lose
of the Senate as well.
Returns from five Congressional
districts were still missing in Mon
tana, New Mexico and South Dakota
this morning.
Without them however. the Repub-
licans have won 234 seats in the
House of Representatives - sixteen
more than the 21S votes necessary
for a majority.
The Democrats on the face of those
returns had 1875 seats and if the five
missing districts were to be con
coded to them they still would lack
eighteen votes of the number neces-
sary to control the House.

The later returns show plainly
that Speaker Clark. instead of be-

Weekly Cotton Review

New York. December 14.-The news features of the week in the cotton mar ket have been the removal of the re- striction on short selling by the com mittee on cotton distEibution the census report on ginning to December 1, and the final crop estimate of the season.
 The freeing of the market from the restriction on short selling seemed to make a more favorable impression on sentiment than otherwise. It was ac- companied by a statement from the com mittee to the effect that the emergency responsible for the restriction had passed and that prospects were for available ocean tonnage sufficient to carry 50 per cent more cotton than was exported last year. This view of the export outlook was encouraged by the increased daily clearances and reports of a more active demand from exporters, but fresh buying for long account was probably held in check by the expectation of very smdll domestic consumption figures for Novem- Der, and there was evidently disposi- tion to take profits on advances, par ticularly toward the end of the week
 The census report showing 9,56S, PA bales ginned to December I, was considered in favor of the smaller crop estimates, but as ginning has been retarded by the epidemic and congestion at. the mills, it failed to create any aggressive senti- ment. Private crop estimates issued be- fore the publication of the government $ final figures averaged in the neighbor- hood of il, ,59f, 900 bales and when the of- fieial report showing 100000 was issued there was sharp break under 1iauida- ton. The difference between the Wash ington forecast and" popular views was too small to cause any material change in market ODiniOnS however.
 A prominent enough trade authority es- inmates the worlds consumption of Amer
 ican cotton for this season at 12,750,000 bales, compared with Il 1,S95,000 last year.
