ARMY TO HAVE 2os GENERALS.
Only Ia5 to Remain in That Rank, O.
Being Temporary.

WASHINGTON, March Is. Demobil-
ization of the army from November to
March | resulted in the elimination OF
10 general officers, saws a table issued bv
the war department Further demobil-
ization in immediate prospect will cancel
the war time rank OF 203 more general
officers, leaving only l25 men IN the
grade Of brigadier general and above of
the 404 who were ON duty when the armi-
stice was signed. Only 81 permanent
general officers are authorized
The great majority of those affected
are regular army men who held commits
sions as general officers for war purposes
only.
The table of expected strength shows
six acknowledgements. 1t was explained
at the war department that this was
founded upon the terms of the bill for
reorganization of the army reported by
the house military committee, which pro-
vided for five corps commanders with
the rank of lieutenant general and chief
of staff Of the same rank, doing away
completely with the rank of general on
the active list.

New York Cotton.

New York, March 20.-1he cotton market showed continued irregulari- ty today. Advances on favorable re- ports from the goods trade met scat tered selling on talk of an easier spot basis, but the final tone was very steady with new style months 2 points higher to 26 points lower. Old crop positions were relatively steeady. The market opened steady at an advance on overnight coverings orders, Liverpool and spot house buy ing. The census report showing H., SSS,13S running bales or 12,022, ,601 equivalent five hundred ponl bales glnned from the crop of 1918 was a shade above expectations, if any thing, and led to some local selling. There was also scattered selling by the south on the opening advance. Re ports from New Orleans that neutral countries were inquiring for spot cot ton and favorable reports from the goods trade brought in considerable buying, however, and prices turned firmer. The advance was checked by reports that the south was offering spots more freely and of an easier basis in the interior. Exports to- day 19,717 bales, making 3,252,611 so far this season. Port receipts s. 499. United States port stock l. 305,989.

New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, March "20.-While a higher market for cotton in the the census bureau report on total ginning for this last season caused early trading today, slumps came later when it was discovered that cotton had been received here from New York to be rendered on March contracts. Old contracts were not ac- tive at any stage and closed at a net decline of 13 to 23 points. New contracts closed unchanged to 19 point down. .-=.
 The census figures of 11,S88, 13S bales were not far out of line with conservative expectations but were we'll under extreme bearish opinion and caused covering movehent movement among shorts.
 Receipts here thus far of cotton from New York amounted to 1,S46 bales. Much bullish comment was aroused by exports thus far this week from all United States ports of 69,- 573 bales against no shipments at all during the same period last year.
 Cotton closed: Old steady at de- cline of 13 to g points and new steady unchanged to 19 points down
