RAILROAD STATUS | A MARKET FEATURE |I. s. Steel Goes to Advance of 1 IA, But Lost All Gain in Final
 Hour
By Associated Press

New York, January 14-The same lack f leadership or initiative which has Influenced operations in the securities aarket since the signing of the armi- tice and the more uncertain status of he railroads was again in evidence to- lay. f-
 Pools held undisputed sway, devoting f;eir attention almost exclusively to the rarious speculative groups of the stock Mist, at the expense or utter neglect of keandard shares, especially transporta- lions.
 Half of the days meagre transactions, spart from United States Steel, which Ietained it's commanding position, con- sisted of oils, shippings, motors, and sandry specialties having little claim as Investment issues.
 United State Steel registered an extreme tdvance of 1A to 92, that quotation coin .iding with the price at which the stock s to be offered to employees this year, but all of this gain was lost in the final hour, when Bethlehem Steel and Baldwin Locomotive were under pres- lure.
 Gross gains of 1 to 31A points in Sin Hair Oil, Pan-American Petroleum, Tex ks company and Mexican Petroleum suf- o.ered material reductions in the later dealings, shippings, equipments and mo- -ors also reacting.
 The few issues that reflected more than casual support included tobaccos, Great Northern Ore and several of the inac- i've high priced rails.
 Trading in bonds fell to less than ha1 pf the preceding days large turnover put the trend, excepting in Liberty issues which continued heavy, was in the dl- lection of improvement, notably in the foreign division. Total sales, par value' aggregated $10,750,O00.
 old United States bonds were uh- ehanged on call.
 Final prices on Liberty Bonds today were: 31ks, s993S; first convertible As, s2. 50; second As, $92. 10; first convertible iA's $96.26; second convertible 4As Sso; Third 4A's, $96.06; fourth AS $95,o4

Over Stewards Wire

New Orleans, January 4-Liverpool was about as due. Yesterdays market action and the reasons given for the selling still reflect bearish sentiment and intention, but the sharp rally in the afternoon on moderate covering demand would suggest bullish technical condi- tions. The claim that the cut in dry goods prices justified bear selling hardly stands thorough investigation, as goods prices. despite the sharp trimming from war extremes. are still way above raw cotton prices Moreover, who knows but that cotton, without the war effects. would not be at this or a higher level or the basis of four straight short crops. The full adjustment in prices ideas for cotton to the very rapid evolution in worlds trade conditions since 1900 has never yet been attained. In consuming quarters, they will always look back to the times of poverty, in capacity and de- pendence of the south conditions which exist no more.
 Final spot quotations from the belt show no change in the attention. Very small sales, and several markets quoted nominal"
 The market about unchanged, but soon developed sagging decline in the ab- sence of any definite support. General talk reveals the idea that bears are now building on hope that talk of new crop preparations might weaken spot resist ance and price views The large dis counts show the market situation already strained to such an extent that if any thing should go wrong in bear calcula- tions. the opposite effect would be pro- nounced.

ADVANCE IN COTTON
 CAUSE OF SELLING
Final Prices Met an Easy Close at a Net Decline of
 61 to g Points
By Associated Prnss

New York, January 4.-An opening ad- vance met increased offerings in the cotton market here today and there was a sharp break in prices with the close easy at net decline of 61 to 92 points.
 March contracts sold off from 2s. 25c to 25.S4c, and closed at 26. 40c, compared with 26.o1c at the close last night.
 The initial advance of 15 to 2i points probably reflected overnight buying or ders that had brought in by the rallies of yesterday afternoon. Buyers found some encouragement in the steady ruling of Liverpool and there was considerable talk of further rally owing to the ex- tent of recent declines and the suppos- edly stronger technical position of the market. The demand was quickly sup piled, however, and the market turned easier under realizing and renewed pres sure from local and southern sources.
 After showing net losses of about 50 to $ points the market rallied several points on reports that southern spot hold CTS were not following the decline and covering, but soon eased off again, reach ing the lowest levels of the day in the late trading.
 January contracts were relatively easy owing to the circulation of notices es- titndteu at apOut IVVV DaieS, ana Soid OFT 26. 70c or 95 points net lower. May broke to S.S7c and July to 22sSc, with the gen. eral list showing net losses of 70 to 95 points during the late afternoon.
 While southern spot advices reported firmness among holders they indicated an absence of any important demand which was attributed to the unsettled conditions of the goods trade and the selling was accompanied by continued talk of a gradual decline in all com modity values.
 Uncertainty regarding proposed legisla- tion to amend the cotton futures act probably had an unsettling influence and was considered partly responsible for the lack of demand. The census report on supply and distribution was about as ex- pected and not an important factor.

Over McReynolds & Julian's Wire


 New Orleans, January H.-Today's census report revealed facts of a rather bearish nature in comparison with sta tistics of one year ago, for While con- sumption for December in the United States was slightly larger than for No vember of lint cotton. 473,000 bales against 457, ,0O0, returns compared with 517,WO for December of last season.
 Compared with last season domestic consumption for December including, linters was only 4S3.000 against 592,oo0 for the first five months of the season only 2.76i,0O0 against 3,205.00o, or 44.00O bales less than for corresponding period last season. Mill stocks in the United States at the close of December were i, ,752 600 bales against L5T 600 last season, and stocks in public storage were 4,669,0O0 bales compared with 3,S11,000, making a total supply visible and invisible in America at the end of December 6,42l 900 bales against 5.3SS,0 900 one year ago. or ,O33, 600 larger than last year.
 As yet the export movement to Europe has failed to increase sufficiently to war rant that shipments to Europe are likely to be two million bales in excess of las. sea sons exports. as they are still behind shipments to even date one year ago figuring only 2193,000 bales compared with ?, AZ. 600 one year ago, when total ship
 ments for the season were only 4,435.OOO bales. including Canada and Mexico. Con- sumption in the United States is now running on basis ofeabout 100000 bales
 for the season against 7,454.00o jlast sea
 son, and exports to Europe are 2,541, 900 less than last year, as a matter of fact European spinners have taken of Amer ican cotton thus far this season only i, ,727, 600 bales, compared with 2.23.000 one year ago. or 46.000 bales less.
 In view of the smaller consumption in America this season and the light taking by European mills present indications are that the world will consume less of American cotton this season than last seasons F. 232 900 bales. in which case, by reason of this seasons crop being somewhat larger than last years yield the surplus to be carried over at the close of next July will probably be larger than it was at the close of last year un-. less exports and foreign takings increase materially during the remainder of the season. There is some dope that the for egn and domestic demand will improve in the future, but until it does, it-may be difficult to sustain the market which will soon come under the influence of
