BIG FOOD SHORTAGE CAUSES 4 BUL[|SH MARKET IN THE PIT
Corn Closed Strong, 3 to 4c Net Higher, While Oats Were in Sympathy at a
 Rise of 5-8c to 1-4c

Chicago, November 15.-Attention to the urgent need of relieving the food shortage in Europe had decided bullish effect today on corn. The market closed strong to 4c net higher with December S1.2lHs and January sl.227s to s12Sb. Oats fin- ished 5s to 1Ac up and provisions rang. ing from 15c off to $1 advance.
 Federation of statements indicating that short hauls would have to be util- ized largely in supplying European food requirements, and that the drain on this country's resources would continue acute dominated corn almost from the outset. Selling on the part of leading commission houses led to some weakness at the opening, but had only a transient influence. Prospects of big reduction of corn acreage in the winter whea, states helped to lift values and so too did improved feeding demand southwest Word that six steamers would be loaded with oats for export from Baltimore gave some independent strength to oats.
 Provisions received general upward fns petus from advices that the December average price on hogs would be the same as during November.

New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, November 15.-Expecta- tions of improvement in the spot situa- tion and the agitation over the south to have present, war restrictions. against exports removed caused a bulge in cot ton today at S10 bale. It was quiet session and only moderate buying was felt, but the inquiry was met by only scanty offerings. The close was at the highest, with buyers at maximum prices, rise of 200 points, which carried De- cember up to 27S5c
 On the opening the market was strong and in a few minutes prices were l0o to 200 points up. The rise was well main tained throughout the session, fresh strength being gained late in the day. From time to- time there were recessions under the liquidation of long contracts, but they did not last long, neither were they wide. q
 Telegrams signed by local spot firms were sent to Washington to the chair man of the war industries board and to other officials, suggesting that re- strictions surrounding the shipment Of cotton to foreign countries be removed. Exporters claim to have considerable business in sight with Europe which they .are unable to put through because of delays and difficulties attending the securing of the necessary licenses to ship. 1t was contended that if the export business of the port could go ahead it would lead to the development Of much new spot business in the interior.

Over Campbell & Co.'S Wire

New Orleans, November 15.-The cotton market opened higher today, rising the
 full limit of 200 points on May around
 the first call and standing 165 to 1so
 points up on the other trading months.
 The gain was well maintained through
 out the session and in the early after
 noon fresh advances occurred on which
 the market stood 195 to 200 points up
 Improvement in the spot situation was
 the sole reason for the buying.
 The immediate cause for the better
 feeling was the agitation now under way
 in the south to induce the government
 to remove all restrictions on cotton ex-
 ports. To this end messages have gone forward to Washington from this mar ket addressed to the chairman of the war industries board and signed by spot
 houses generally, asking the board to interest itself in this matter. Exporters here claim to have large orders, for neu- tral countries especially, which they can
 not fill because of the present system of licensening shipment. With smaller re- quirements of tonnage for war purposes it is felt that more tonnage can easily be diverted by the national governor of the federal reserve bank that there was any truth at all in the rumors that federal reserve banks had in any way hanipered the lending of money on cotton.
 Under the. restrictions now in force, there were necessarily few sellers. On the other hand it cannot be said that there were eager buyers. A moderate de-
 mand put the market higher, and we in4 cline to the view that further rise is probable.
 The market closed at net advance | of 200 points above yesterdays close, the | limit having been reached for the day s trading Shepard & Gluck.

OPINIONS CONFLICT
 RESPECTING FUTURE
 OF STOCK TRADING
Downward Revision of Tax ation Was Balanced By Pessimistis Views on
 Labor Readjustment

New York, November 15.-Conflicting opinions in high quarters respecting the rorEhcoujne period of reconstruction left their further impress on the stock mar ket today, the movement of prices being decidely irregular most of the session.
 Secretary McAdoos plan for down ward revision of the governments pro- gramme of taxation and the statement of the head of the war board that busi' ness need have no nlisgivings were pal anced by the pessimistic views of indus trial executives in reloation to labor ad- justment.
 The course of several market leaders was traceable. however, to more definite causes. Marine preferred registered an extreme decline of almost 10 points on announcement of further delay in the sale of the conipany's British tonnage, rallying BE poants later.
 In point of activity, marines were all most as prominent as United States Steel but steel shook off some of it's recent heaviness, holding all it's 215 point ad- vance Independent steels, including the war division, were to points higher
 Coppers denoted the further uncertain ty of the war boards action as to new price schedules, but motors, especially low priced issues, strengthened in antici- patton of the removal of the government s embargo. Oils rose and fell in character istic fashion, ending at mixed gains and losses, tobaccos were slightly less varia- ble and miscellaneous shares were main ly higher, but rails, aside from the strength of nickel plate issues, for feited most of their moderate advances.
 Bonds were heavy on the. 21a per cent reaction in Marina 6a foreign issues also easing with the Liberty division. Total sales par value aggregating $9,300000. Old United States bonds were unchanged on call.

Over Stewards Wire

New Orleans, November 15.--Parity ad- justment with Liverpool is now one of the principal trading factors in the mar ket. Indications point ito very large straddle engagements between our mar l1et and Liverpool, anticipative of adjust ment in parity to peace Basis with the short end on our side and the long end In the English market
 The liquidation of these straddles en- tails buying here and selling in Liverpool.
 Limitations to daily fluctuations allow only a limited portion of executions for the cratic action of the markets. Yes
 terday there was probably some buying in New York with the intention of sell
 ing this morning in Liverpool. As that market could only decline 50 points the volume of straddle selling immediately put it down the full limit, but when our markets opened higher new outlet for straddle liquidation was created and IJverpool advanced as far as she could go which was 50 points up to last nights closing prices. This limitation tends to prolong the existence of the bullish factor of large straddle short 12o to the limit of 200 points up. A bet ter feeling became violent yesterday E afternoon and was further encouraged lover night by adyices that certain prominent bear operators seemed to

STAPLE WAS. RAISED ID MAXIMUM
 ON SHORT COVERING
Cotton Reached Gain of S1O Per Bale Over Thursday and S12.50 Over Low
 Wednesday

New York, November 15-There was rush to cover short contracts in the cot
 ton market today which resulted in an advance of 200 points on all deliveries,
 or the maximum fluetuation permitted
 for any one day.
 There were buyers at these maximum
 prices at the close with January at 2s.o5c,
 or S10 per bale above the close of last
 night and $12.75 per bale above the low level of Wednesday morning.
 . This made recovery to within 75 points
 of the price at the close of last week
 or before the signing of the armistice.
 The market opened strong at an ad-
 vance of 200 points on all months ex-
 cept December which sold l9o points above last nights closing figures on Or right after the call. There was natural
 ly a good deal of profit taking at this level and there was also some selling by the south. This caused reactions of 6 to S0. points, but shorts appeared to have been much alarmed by the prohi-
 bition upon further short sales in both Liverpool and American markets, the Washington intimations of greatly in creased exports, and the absence of ex- pected spot liquidation. At any rate, there was continued covering on all the setbacks and the market showed increas- | ing strength in the late trading. Every month on the list sold up the full 200 l points permitted December closed at | assoc and March at PESO comparing with | 26c and 25.25c the low level of the week. | Reports were circulated today that re- cent conferences between foreign cotton
 commissions and Washington committees developed prospects for exports exceeding | last years by about 100000 bales. These reports served to stimulate buying and 1 there were also advices from the south ! indicating returning confidence among holders owing to the prompt action of l the cotton committee in checking the recent speculative decline A local au- ! thority estimates the crop at 12,10O,OoO l bales, excluding linters
