New York, November 21.-Stocks
were firm to strong at the outset of
today's trading and made general ex-
tensions to their gains at midday. but
fell away rather sharply under pres
sure in the active selling of the last
hour.
Much of the early advance was nat
urally ascribed to less stringent none
tary conditions and another rally in
foreign exchange. For the first time
this month call loans were renewed at
per cent and plenty of money was
available later a. per cent.
Relaxation did not include time
funds, homewevr, for which IN per
funds, however, for which " per
cent was again eagerly bid. Many
loans were reported to have been ne
gotiated on an per cent basis ano
commercial discounts also were firmer.
Sentiment among traders was more
hopeful, but this was neutralized by
the conservation of commission houses,
where>further belated liquidation was
in progress. The coal strike situation
and related industrial conditions also
melted realizing for profits on recent
purchases
Shorts again found it expedient ana
somewhat difficult to cover in such
stocks as General Motors, Cruciole

FLUCTUATIONS IN
COTTON VIOLENT At
DIFFERENT STAGES
General List Closed Easy at
a Net Decline of so to so
Points Below Thurs
days Close

New York, November 1.-THE cotton
market showed continued nervousness to-
day and there were violent fluctuations.
After selling at a. 15c on an early break
January rallied to 35.10c or % points net
higher, but broke again in the late trading
and closed at 34.24c, with the general list
closing easy at net decline of so to 80
points.
There seemed to be considerable disap-
pointment over the failure of yesterday
conferences to result in a settlement on
the coal controversy, and after opening at
decline of to q points, the market soon
sold 70 to so points net lower.
Houses with southern and western con-
nections were very heavy sellers this
decline, which carried March off to 32.30c,
but Liverpool bought considerable cotton
and as soon as the liquidation slackened
prices turned firTner on the better tone
of the stock market, steadier foreign ex-
change rates and larger clearances.
For time there appeared to be very
few contracts for sale and the market
advanced rapidly with March selling up
to S333c and with the active months show
ing rallies of SO to 1903 points from the low
est, buyers then seemed to have been
pretty well supplied, however, and the
market was very weak in the afternoon
under renewed liquidation and heavy for
eign selling, accompanied by rumors OF
unfavorahle Mexican developments. Some
months made new lows for the day in the
late trading and the close was easy at
net decline of 60 to 50 points The census
report showing 7,577,S2s bales ginned to
November IA, against S,70ssi29 last year
was not considered an immediate factor

Weekly Cotton Review

New York, November 21,.-There hat
been continued liquidation in the cot
ton market during the past week with
sentiment unsettled by the money stu
alton, the failure of the Senate to
reach an agreement on the peace treaty
and apprehension of a coal shortage.
The rule limiting fluctuations to 1000
points was again called into operation
q nthe break of Tuesday and the de-
cline extended to 33c for January con-
tracts during the middle of the week,
when active months generally showed
losses of about SIC to TIC as COM
pared with recent high records
Since then liquidation has been less
active. and Quotations very irregular
with January selling back above the
a5c level during today's dis
turbing factors. but the rate showed
some improvements toward the end of
the week, and there was heavy Liver
pool buying here, supposedly to take
profits on straddles at the widest diff
ferences between the two markets so
far this season Trade interests have
also been credited with buying con-
siderable cotton on scale downward
in the futures market. although spot
sales in the south have been smaller on
the decline, and New England mills are
said to have been holding off for more
settled conditions The better weather
reported in the south led to predictions
of an increased movement. but there
has been very little further discussion
of crop prospects. andthe selling move
ment has been most generally at
tributed to liquidation of long ac-
counts influenced by the opposition of
bankers to the use of money for specu-
lative purposes

Coffee Market


New YORK, November N.-The market
for coffee futures was very irregular to-
day. The opening was u to 81 points
lower owing to lower Brazilian cables and
a renewal of scattering liquidation.
December was relatively weak, selling
off to 14,75c, while March declined to 15.90c
md May to 15.S4c. There was considerable
covering at this level, however, with
March selling up to 1850 and May to Isle
in the later trading, and with the market
closing net 8 points higher to 6 points
lower. Closing bids, December, 15.15c; jan
uary, 15.S5c; March, 15.50c May, 15.55c,
July, 15.6oc; September, 15.45c.
Spot coffee, unsettled Rio rs, $3.50
l5Ac; Santos AZ, 261sG261ac. There were
conflicting reports from the cost and
freight market. Some shippers were said
o be asking 2S14@3olsc for Santos As ster-
ing credits, and 1615c for Rio rs Ameri-
can credits but there were rumors that
lower bids had been accepted
The official cable showed an advance OF
sd in Rio exchange on London, with a
decline of Is reis in the Rio market. San
tos spots were not quoted and the early
cable showing a decline of 600 to 800 refs
in Santos futures was followed by a spe-
cial cahle reporting further decline or
n to 600 reis.

Durgan & Bouden Letter

New Orleans. November a.-While
there were both advances and declines in
the trading in cotton today, the advances
we're not sustained and the market closed
az net losses. The census bureau report
on ginning on the opening was more
bearish than expected and resulted in
moderately wide declines, from which the
market recovered and went to substan-
tiaI net advances on the runor that the
coal strike would be settled before the
cav was over However, aften the noon
hour there were reports that the coal
conference had settled into a hopeless
deadlock and the market broke again.
The ginning report counted the pro-
duction to November IA at 7,51IS26 bales,
AGAINST S.706,42 bales to the same date
last year and ssh, rs to the same date
TWO years ago. For this last period the
ginning was 1908. $50 bales, against 22S.2
this period last year and l,Ss5,9Sl two
years ago. The bearishness of the figures
lay in the output for the periods,-Dus-
gan & Bouden.

Sugar Market
Ru Associated Press

New York November H.-There was no
change in old crop sugars, which are
quoted at 72Sc for centrifugal to the re-
finer.
New crops continue firm, with offerings
not aggressive, although the demand to-
day was less active. and no new business
was reported. There were no purchases
by the board
There was nothing new in the retlned
situation with the demand still active,
while refiners are allocating as much as
possible through the committee. Prices
were unchanged at cents for fine granu-
lated

there were rumors that the coal strike
conference was in a deadlock, and the
market promptly broke TO about yes
terday's closing level on the near months
and to a dollar bale below on the dis
tant months.
The ginning figures were called bearish
because they indicated an output this
period OF 1.303.9 go bales, against 92e,2 POI
this period last year. The total ginnings
to November IA amounted to 7,577,S2e bales,
against S,70S.420 a year ago and S,57l, li5
two years ago. On their face, Of course.
the figures were buliish, 1t appears plain
that the market will not be able to get
back to a normal stride until the coal
strike is settled and in the immediate
future it is likely to be swayed by every
rumor concerning the progress Of the
negotiations.
The market closed at net declines of 40
to rs points.-Shepard 6 Gluck.

New York. November 21.--It has been
less active market today. but the
tone is nervous and unsettled and while
advances have been sharp they have
not held in a very satisfactory manner,
though the feeling is that the weaker
long interest has been thoroughly elimi-
mated and some short interest created
with the future depending on how holders
face the situation. Uptown traders and
western and southern interests have sold
cutie freely as they have for some days
past. and it is thought that many of
those contracts are still outstanding.
Aside frori that selling there has been
little offering and much Of the business
has represented switching.
Liverpool was a good buyer during the
early trading and brokers who often act
for Japanese interests were bidding ac-
lively. Exports were very heavy,
amounting to 114,OOo bales, with the total
for the week so far 246,eoO, against 5000
last year. Liverpool stock lost 10000 bales
for the week.-Post & Flag.

CORN DEPRESSED AS
BEGIN TO
CLOSE THEIR DOORS
Oats Also Lost, While Pro-
visions List Varied From
SOC Decline to 15c

Chicago November ~. 49, Announce
ment of the shutting down of big indus
trial plants as result of coal shortage
had a depressing effect today on the
corn market. Prices closed heavy at
&c to 2isc net lower with December
sL3lA to s1.Sls and May sl.24A to S1.249s.
Oats lost sc to 9s0lkc In provisions
the outcome varied from soc decline to
15c advance. Bears took control of the
corn market at the opening and main
tanned their grip virtually unimpaired
throughout the session. The fact tnat
several large consumers of corn were
among the manufacturing establish
ments rendered idle by lack of fuel tend
ed especially to weaken values. mas
much as demand for grain was thus
diminished, and it soon became evident
that receipts of corn here were in excess
of immediate requirements
Lower quotations on hogs did good
deal likewise to discourage buyers, al
though the effect was counterbalanced
TO some extent by upturns in sterling
exchange and in securities on Wall
street

New YORK, NoVember N.-The GIN
ming was quite UP to expectations and
shows picking and ginning has pro-
crossed rapidly and the relatively large
ginning of the past period has come at
the expense of the final outturn. Sem
timent is mixed badly so, but we be-
lieve the southern line will hold and
values will ultimately advance to the
convertible value. The discount on July
is absurd and will not last for July will
