COTTON MARKETS
Market Steady Until Rumor Of
German Government Over
throw Is Received.
saturday afternoon. Jan. 10


Steadiness prevailed during the first
part Of the short session today ard
prices worked moderately higher, but
the tide turned when the rumoT flashed
over the wires that the German gov
eminent had been overthrown and the
socialists were In control AS this was
the day for the Germans to sign the
peace treaty, and reports during the
forenoon said nothing Of any prospec-
tive alteration Of plans, this develop
ment served to upset traders to some
extent it might affect return Of reia-
tons between the countries. The re-
suit, therefore, was a dip OF nearly 100
points In prices, finals being very near
the bottom and lower than the worst
for the week,
Finals in New York were easy and 4s
to So points net to the bad, while in
New Orleans they were steady at the
decline and from 80 to SO points to
the bad. Liverpool to make full re-
Spouse on Monday should come 10 to
% points lower
Little news came to explain the
steadiness in the early market, but 1t
seemed based on some buying for Idv-
erpool account and lack of sellers al
though in professional circles there
seemed continuance of expectation for
some reaction. The March position in
New York opened at $3.50, sold as high
S6.05. closing at 1907.
In the spot department quotations
were reduced at some centers, but
others made no change. A fair vol
urne OF sales was reported, buH most OF
this was done before the market had
its sinking spell
New Orleans made no change, mid
ding at Ale, and sales were 1858;
Memphis sold $500 bales with no
change. middling at Acc; Dallas reduc-
ed prices 20 points, middllne to 4i.90,
were cut 50 points to 4125c, with sales
reported 2,l55 bales. while sales report
ed at Augusta were 2,259 bales.

many who planted largely to grain and

small outturn, proved very rer1unera-

thing to hold cotton acreage down this
spring will be inability to get seed for

policy will be. But how soon this

not little in governing trading activ-

declined slightly, especially sterling
sight being quoted lower than ever
out had as a partial offset reports and
rumors that announcements would soon
be made of some loans to foreign gov
ernments which would serve to check
declines and enable purchase Of raw
materials in this country. One rumor,
which did not get confirmation, was
that German commission had made
arrangements for credit whereby that
country would buy 1000 900 bales Of
cotton, but no details were given and
1t failed to be very important as a
price influence. The fact that indica-
tons are for an increasing volume
of exports to continental countries sug-
gested larger consumption there and a
probability of more exports Of finished
goods to help stabilize exchange. The
chance of the United States manufac-
turers having increased competition
from the foreign-made product failed
TO excite fear or much attention, as 1t
Is believed the scarcity Is too great to
be affected any time soon.
The attitude Of the federal reserve
banks as to action looking to restriction
Of loans proved to be no reason for
tclCctu dII'ulE tnN COIIO7 LTnue, the
announced policy was to discourage them
on nonessentials. Moreover, the great
strength In the cotton market Is the
fact that the unsold part Of the supply
is SO independently held, the financial
position of the holders never having
been as strong as 1t is now.
Speculative features were few and
traders disposed to be cautious. Senti-
ment among the professionals was ia
vorable to reaction, but when II ran

on Monday, but at the lowest the diff
ference was less than 100 points, March

and reacted less than the others: Liv-
erpool having bought that position. In
New York the list finished the period

The spot department was closely

the better grades, with some turning to

to get the low grades at concessions
proved futile as a rule, for those who
have them seem confident that they

tations for middling upland at the lead
