290,318 kilograms (275,6 ,658, ,499

Taking the average of the SO
years for which statistics are
given, and there should be added
for the four years 1914-15-16-17
at least $333,333,S9S, although
the total will probably bring the
production from 1877 to and in
cluding 1917 up to at least $3,-
5O0,0OO,0OO.
(Note-The values as given
are in Mexican gold, the equiva-
lent in American gold being one
half, or a grand total for the 40
years of at least 81, 1,75O,OOO,000.)

NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK. Nov. 22,-The cotton
market showed renewed firmness dur
ing today's early trading Realizing
sales caused some irregularity at the
start, but after opening steady at an
advance Of 1 points to a decline OF IL
| points the market soon sold some 30 to
40 points above last nights closing fig
urcs, with December touching 29. 20,
January 2S.55 and March q. Is. or 2l0 to
900 points above the low level Of last
Tuesday morning. The cold wave re-
ported in the southwest and firm ca
hles contributed to the advance, but
the buying was most generally at
tributed to the prospects for inCreas-
ing exports. The war trade board has
officially announced that no individual
licenses will be required for the expor-
tation Of raw cotton to Great Britain,
France. Italy, Belgium or Japan after
Dec. ..
There was realizing enough to cause
reactions of about 20 TO IS points later
with January selling off to rs, soc and
March to 27.S0c, or back to within 2
to 7 points of last nights closing fig
ures. Southern selling WAS very little
H. evidence, however. while offerings
we're absorbed on n scale down by trade
and speculative buying, This steadied
the market around midday with rallies
of 10 to 20 points.
No fresh feature developed during the
early afternoon and the market was
steady toward 2 o'clock, with December
selling around 20. 30 and January Is. &c

Friday Afternoon, Nov. q

Apparently the cotton trade believes
that progress is being made toward
better buying chances for export Of raw
material The announcement made yes
terday at Washington, after the close
Of the market, that restrictions had
been lifted against shipment OF cotton
70 allied and neutral countries had good
effect On sentiment. as Il was regarded
as the forerunRer Of more liberal buy
ing, It naturally stimulated buying, for
there has also been an Increase in the
allotment Of freight room for December,
which is expected to be followed by
still further enlargement, Encourage
ment is reported for those who are
striving 10 have through bills of ladtng
resumed, whereby business win be ia
cilitated, and would thus stimulate buy
ing by the exporters.
Liverpool was a factor in the higher
market, for the people trading through
that center seem to be going after raw
material supplies, or are getting ready
10 do so. There was covering Of short
contracts in that direction, indicating
expectation Of better prices and inahii-
tty to buy material on this side at prices
expected. It one time during the seS-
sion over there the March option ad-
anCed the One-day limit Of 100 points,
but reacted slightly before the close,
Finals were steady at IS to A3 points

markets might do something u%neXpect-
ed over the weekend perhaps contrib
uted to the strength over there, Spots

At the opening prices on this side
were but little changed from the previ-
Gus close, January being unchanged AT

and the option dropped to 9Sl0C, but
recovered when support anne much Of

their inability to buy the actual in the
belt except at stiff figures. The rise
extended to rs. 59c, but a period Of re-
action followed as Il few scattered
hedges were released. II was the eX-
pressed opinion that the market was
a two-sided affair at the advance, but
sellers We're scarce and In the afternoon
another upward movement came. jan
uary reached % 7iC, but there was little

The spot department was quiet, but
stcadiness seemed to be general, Quo
tations are still higher than futures IN
this means that when sales are made
on basis the latter Is very high. The
holders are independent and are talk
ing Of much higher prices. They are
counting on the export situation being
opened up soon and the admitted search
ty of raw material abroad is expected
to supply the buying power. The do

Reports that grain had fallen to n ma

Increased country offerings added lat
