Russia will raise a good crop this wear

Cotton Drops
Again as Selling
Pressure Grows
Losses Ranging Up to %
Points Net Recorded in
Active Session; Export
Situation Is Disappointing

Uncertainty of industrial and trade
conditions was again responsible
tor decline in the cotton market.
May contracts yesterday broke to 2O.25,
or 80 points below the final quotation
OF Thursday, and closed at 2O.50. with
the general list showing net losses Of
20 to 93 points. March was relatively
weak, that delivery selling off to 21.4o,
or full cent net lower, and closed
within points OF the lowest.
The market opened barely steady at
a decline of 40 points to an advance
of points and was somewhat IRREGULAR
right after the call. Selling quickly
increased, however, and the market
was weak and unsettled later in the
day under pressure of Southern and
local offerings. The close showed rallies
of some 25 to 35 points on Nav and
later deliveries. and there was some
trade buying below 20.50 for May but
the bulk of the demand was attributed
to covering.
Reports that commission would be
appointed to take up the matter of
determining a scale of commodity
values to serve as a basis for govern
ment purchases had an unsettling effect
and probably stimulated the afternoon
selling. Part Of the March liquidation
was attributed to Japanese interests
who had taken up considerable cotton
on December and January contracts.
Differences between high and low
grades continued to widen, suggesting
that the latter are seeking an outlet
in some sections, but Southern advices
received yesterday reported that the
better grades were held firmly. Exports
are gradually pulling ahead of last
year, but have not increased as rap
idly as expected on the basis of early
winter predictions, and the situation
In this respect has been something of
disappointment to old longs South
ern spot markets as officially reported
were unchanged to 100 points lower.
Exports for the day were 1928
bales, making 2,549,os4 so far this sea
son, against 2,491 1869 last year.
The local market for spot cotton was
quiet and 80 points lower at 25c for
middling upland, compared with $500
the day before and 31.70 the year be-
fore. There were no sales of spot.

Oil Dividend Raised
of New York PAYS
Sl6 Share

Directors of the Standard Oil Com
pany of New York, yesterday increased
the annual dividend rate from $12 to
SIG a share on the s75,O00,o0 capital
stock, by declaring a quarterly dis
bursement of $4, payable March Is
to stockholders of record on February
21. Three months ago the regular quar-
terly dividend declared was $3 a share
The higher late will mean an added
distribution Of $750.000 for the quarter
In the financial district the action of
the Standard Oil board in increasing
the dividend rate was regarded as in
dicating belief on the part of the
directors that the oil industry is going
to profit greatly by after the-war bust
ness. The New York company has paid
quarterly dividends of So share since
June, 1917.

Russian Bonds Buoyant

A rather sensational rise in the ex-
ternal Russian government bonds
traded in on the curb market yester-
day followed the announcement that
the Bolshevik regime would offer, in
return for political recognition, to
recognize Russia's foreign debt and
pay the interest with raw materials
and industrial concessions. The 6 Us.
hoated here in June, 1916, mounted to
70 during the course of the days trad
ing and closed at IS, with net gain Of
6 points. The 12s jumped to 65 be-
fore a reaction set in and carried the
closing price down to 60, against
Thursdays last sale at Sc. Russian
luble notes, which not long ago brought
only 13 cents, went yesterday from 16
tc TN cents. While bankers express
confidence that Russia will ultimately
realize that she can take an important
place among the nations of the world
only by recognizing her foreign oblga-
hons, they feel that there are many
difficulties in the way of reaching a
practical plan. This may have been
the reason for the later selling of Rus
sian securities yesterday.

The above rates express the cost of
foreign money in terms of the Amer
lean dollar. You buy an English pound
sterling, say, at s4.75A. The intrinsic
parity IS S4.86ts per pound. Thus you
say either that pounds are at dis
count or that dollars are at premium,
which is owing to the fact that in Eng,
land the demand for dollars with which
to settle accounts i'm this country is
greater than the demand in this coun-
try for pounds with which to settle
accounts in England.
