STOCK MARKET WAS CONTRACT ED AND DULL YESTERDAY
Call Money Opened at Eight Per Cent, the Lowest Initial Figure of the
 Month
By Associated Press

New York, Novemoer Robustness on the stock exchange today was dull and contracted Tn comparison with recent ieVerish activity, but the undertone showed greater firmness on the further elimination of weakened accounts.
 In large part the markets stability was asoribed to sentimental influences created by the brisk recovery of foreign exchange and fulfillment of yesterday 5 promise of easier money, although the latter condition dealt almost entirely with call loans.
 Demand bills on London rose 7s4c to the pound over last week minimum and exchange on Paris also improved, with concurrent betterment in remittances to many continental points. The Greek rate, however made no visible response to interesting political developments in that country.
 Call money opened at 8 per cent. the lowest initial figures of the month and keld at that rate throughout the ses- sion, but nominal amounts were offered ''unofficially.' according to reports, at yesterdays low quotation of per cent in the last hour.
 The cheaper motor shares and several of the food products and equipments again proved vulnerable to pressure, shippings also falling sharply in the lat ter dealings, but majority of po- tential leaders were variably higher or unchanged. Sales amounted to 755,o0O shares.
 Home markets reported additional con- sessions in leadn" commodities, includ- ing a cut in refined sugar to below 10 .~l4ts. ureiieE uo,,nn d. u revision also resulted from the diminished inquiry for silver and some of the baser metals and the backward movement in textile and linGred trades gathered fresh momen- tum.

New Orleans Cotton


 New Orleans, Nove nber 16.-Nervous fluctuations within fairly bread limits fea tured the trading in cotton today, the market being responsive to both buying and selling orders and gaining no very decided trend. finally closing at net losses of 34 to fl points under realizing by recent buyers. Price movements were not prolonged at any time and traders on both sides appeared to be working on the policy of taking quick profits. The early session saw decli of z to 45 points under selling stimulated mainly by poor cables. A private cablegram claiming that Manchester was another to cancel large contracts caused more or Tess selling. but after the weather map and forecast had been sized up and stock taken of the cold and wet weather already experienced and in sight the market did better. At it's best it stood at 17.72c for December, with the list IA to 19 points over the close of yes terday.
 In the late trading recent buyers liquid ated their holdings too freely and the market softened, finally breaking to levels of 43 to f7 points under the last quo tations of yesterday. At the lowest of the day December traded at 17.35c and May at 16.52c.

VALUES OF WHEAT WERE
 LIF TED YESTERDAY ON SEVERAL BEARlSH REPORTS
By Associated Press

Chicago, November 16.-European buy ing, actual and prospective, did a good deal today to lift values in wheat The finish, although unsettled, was I% per cent net higher, with December s1S71s @l7S&, and March $1.T1zd1. TX. Corn closed quarter cent net lower to three eighths cent advance; oats up quarter to 1ssc, and provisions varying from 3oc de- cline to a gain of 8 cents!
 [ Sales of wheat to Belgium today were estimated at 100000 bushels. presumably altogether Canadian grown, and there was much talk of an effort to arrange credits in this country to enlarge exports to Germany. Bullish sentiment was also given emphasis by the smallness of the stock of wheat here and at other vest ern centers and by the persistent meagre- Hess of rural offerings. In this connec- tion it was pointed out that arrivals at Kansas City and St. Louis had dimin- ished % per cent; as compared with a week ago. In the last part of the day, however, the market underwent a mod crate reaction as result of profit talk ing on the part of traders who appar- ently deemed that the advance had been enough for the time being
 Corn also was tended to reflect the wheat advance but met with an offset ir the shape of heavy speculative selling of corn for December.
 For the most part provisions were weak with hogs. November lard thought. was an exception.

New Or4eahs, .~oVe.dDer l6.-COntinued cold wet rains prevailed over the cotton region, but Liverpool came over some
 what disappointing, causing our market
 to open about 30 points lower, but ral-
 lied in the first hour of tke session to 15 points higher than yesterdays close
 on the had weather, coupled with for
 egn and domestic trade calling in De- cember which caused some short cover-
 irg, thereby helping the advance, When this demand was satisfied no new buy ing appeared to carry prices still higher so the market sagged, becoming soft in the late trading for lack of support. All options made new lows except Decem- Der There was nothing of fresh impor- tance in the news the decline must be attributed to the general depressing situation in cotton which every one knows. Sentiment particularly in local spot circles is still bearsh, we however. still continue to believe prices are low enough and a quick upward bound can easily be brought about with just q little favorable news.-S.
