Corn and Oats Both Lose Slightly, While Provisions Went Up on New
 Orders
By Associated Press

Chicago, February S.-Persistent heavy speculative selling associated with gos- sip about price fixing for basic commo- dities more than wiped out advances to- day in the corn market. The close was nervous at the same as yesterdays fin isl to 324 net lower with May s1.12G1.121s and July $1.OsAQ1.OS1A. Oats lost F to 1c. In provisions there were gains of g to 95 cents.
 At first the. corn market lad an up ward slant owing to weekend adjust. ment of trades and to reports that no decided increase Of selling by rural hold CTS was looked for.
 Moreover adviees were at hand that the ertente allies were unwilling to accept the export conditions which the Argen- tine government was said to be trying to enforce. Houses with eastern connee- tions though took an progressively bear ish attitude and finally succeeded in bringing about declines.
 Gossip that a further downward move ment of commodity prices was inevitable had considerable to do with the setback and so too had sudden development or hedging here in the February option. s Oats were weak throughout the day
 Reports that packers had received lb- eral new orders from the government hoisted provisions.

Cotton Goods Review
By Associated 'Press

New York, February S.--Cotton goods were very quiet this week in the pri- mary division. while further price revi- s.ons are being made in the jobbing mar kets. There has been further weaken ing in staple print cloths and converti- hles Denms have been revised down. ward to a basis of 30 cents for 2.20 south ern indigo goods. New prices are ex- pected daily on prints and percales and this will be the final revision in the large cotton goods division.
 Competition for goods on narrow fan nettes has led mill agents to reduce prices from the opening figures Of the season, but business on canton flanneis and wide fiannellettes has come along satisfactorily.
 Curtalment of production is spreading rapidly in mill centers following conces- sions of shorter hour day in many of the New England centers. Owing to the difficulty mills find in getting busi- ness until buyers have greater confi- deIce in the new values that are being established the tendency to cut down production is expected to increase
 Reports from many retail centers state that business is very fair and retailers are coming to the markets in larger numbers than usual
 Prices are: Print cloths. 2S-inch 64xe4s, 7s.c; S4xe0s. .ssc; 8E-inch s4xe4s, lOc; brown sheetings, southern standards. l1Sc: tickings. S-oz.. 34c; denims. 2.2os. southern indigo. sec: prints. ls1Ac nomi- nal staple singhams. l7l4c; dress ging- hams. 20c and PC.

that this action upon the part of the government, so far as cotton is con cerned, will be helpful since new crop deliveries are quoted at or below the cost of production. If this should be the findings of the committee the gov ernment is likely to agree in paying higher price for cotton goods it may need, which, it is thought, would en- courage spinners to ask correspond ingly higher price from the civilian trade. thereby stabilizing values.
 Realizing the fact that inadequate shipping facilities and lack of for eign demand really are the causes con tributing to the weak position of cot ton. a majority of southern members Of Congress took determined stand at a conference last night in Washington against devoting time to attacking the cotton exchanges.
 In addition to the reasons assigned by the southern congressman as the causes for the depression in the cotton market the preponderance of low grades in the south, for which last years crop is noted, are responsible in large measure for the lower prices for the staple because of the want of de- mand for same. Compared with last year and year before last the worlds visible supply of American cotton yes terday was 35S5,000 bales against B. 153,000 and 4,o43,000 of which 2,662,000 eand in the United States against D. 466 900 of which 2,413,000; for Europe and afloat 923,000 compared with 6SI- 900 and 1,630,000 of which Liverpool was credited with 472.000 versus Sss,00o and S6AOO0. In addition to the worlds vinsible supply of American the south has about 100000 bales more to mar ket than was marketed after this time last year. Therefore, it is imperative for the south to make drastic cut in
 this years acreage if prices are to ad- vance materially H. & H. Beer.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, February S.-We are daily approaching the time when the normal spring demand for goods commenced throughout the world. Since the armis- tice, now three months, the retailers have been disposing of the goods which they had on hand as rapidly as possi' bIe, and they have bought practically nothing. This condition is as true in other countries as it Is here. because or the expectation of a decline in freight rates therefore we are coming closer to a normal busiess demand for goods with stocks in the hands of merchants at lower point than for many years. All you need to corroborate this statement is to ask your wives and daughters what the merchants tell them when they ask for new goods. In the meantime, sentiment is pessimistic and any change in business beginning with the agricul- tural west will be for the better
 The weather In the south has delayed farm work, and it is now essential that we should have clear, warmer days or the crop will be late.
