Cotton

Tn. seI,in~ movement started by tho un-
expectedly large crop estimate OF Tnurs-
day became even more active ana exc..eu e.'a
of foreign exchange, the advance in money
rates and tho unsettled ruling of the stock
market. The latter was reflected in heavy
Wall Street selling, OF cotton. while there
was also a good deal of selling by the
South, with liquidation particularly active
In tho near months. January contracts
sold of to 1902. making q decline OF 1zs
points from the close of the previous day
and Of over SC a pound from tho price pre-
vailing shortly before the governments esti-
mate was published Covering and trade
buying caused rallies OF some 35 to rs points
in the late trading and the the close ,a... was as
3 to 70 points for the day
The market opened firm at decline of
IL points on December. but generally II
to 65 points higher on relativly. firm cables
and covering by some OF Thursdays sellers.
People who had carried long contracts over
the break evidently tried to liquidate on
ket soon turned easier in consequence. At
times Southern selling was active. while
weakness in the New Orleans market was
accompanied by reports Of an easier spot
situation, and the market was very weak
early in the afternoon. December was
relatively quiet. but sold los points lower,
so to III points. with May relatively firm.
This was due to reports that the trade had
a good many buying orders in the market
ing at 3I.o7.
While the increase in estimates of the
crop has stimulated the selling movement
bearish sntiment around the ring seemed
to be based largely on the apprehension Of
restricted export demand because OF the
low exchange rates and fear that higher
money would lead to spot liquidation in
the South. One OF tho kilograms received
here from Dallas said the spot market was
demoralized. as everybody wanted to sell
and could not and buyers Most Of the
messages said that spot holders were re-
fusing to follow the decline. Southern
spot markets officially reported were
unchanged to 100 points lower. with
comparatively small business. Middlins

German Gold Reserve Small

Question-Are German marks sup
posed to be backed in normal times by
gold or silver, or how? Are the chances
good for nation like Germany to get
its currency back to normal? S. NJ. A.
Answer-Wo do not know the exact
percentage of German gold reserve to
circulation but we know it is insgnifi-
cant. Who can tell what Germany will
do in the near future? When you
speak Of the normal value of the mark,
1t appears to us that what with her
terrific imitation, her trade balance
greatly against her, her large indemni-
ties to pay, "a cents or thereabouts

Selection a Good One

Question-We are contemplating the
purchasing Of the following stocks.
Will you kindly give me such informa-
tion on them as you have, whether
you would recommend the purchase,
and whether you feel confident tha.
these stocks will continue dividends as
at present, and at some later date rise
in value: Is shares Philadelphia Com
pany, 25 shares Lehigh Valley Rail
road Company, 25<shares Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad preferred. 25 shares of
Pennsylvania Railroad Company? Any
and all information that you will give
me, as we'll as any advice will be high
ly appreciated. I am great believer
in The Tribune, being y reader for
many years.-B. H.
Answer-Under the government
guarantee the dividend on each of the
railroad stocks you have picked out is
amply provided for. While we are of
the opinion that the railroads will be
turned back to private operation under
conditions which will enable each of
the stocks named to continue to earn
its present dividends, We of course have
no assurance that will be tho case.
Lehigh Valley and Pennsylvania will In
our opinion probably fare better for
some time to como than tho Baltimore
& Ohio. The Philadelphia Company
appears to be prospecting despite high
er operating costs and it's earnings are
we'll in excess of dividend require
ments. While we do not care to as-
sumo the responsibility of advising you
what to do We feel no hesitancy in say
ing that you have made a selection
that would be regarded as fair invest
ment for business man, although it
might be desirable to substitute an
other stocN for B. & O. preferred.
Why not good industrial stock. such
as United States Steel preferred?
Not an Investment Choice
Question: would like to have your
opinion on Perfection Tire and Rub
Der Company and Ryan Oil. / have
$500 to invest; which would you choose ?

Answer-If you want to invest your
$500 don't buy either stock. Both are
speculati0ns.
