New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans. January 27.-The cotton market fell off for small declines toda- mainly as the result of a less favorapi. i. opinion of conditions abroad and the money situation in this country. The raise in interest rates by local banks servef to bring finances to the front again Cables were indifferent and helped make for, a lower opening and the decline was con tirued until it amounted to g to AZ points Cold and wet weather in the cot ton region brought in something of a demand and there were partial recoveries at one time the active months reacting to within to F points of yesterdays close In the afternoon the tone was steady, but there was little activity Last prices were at net losses of to IS points.
 The weather map caused bullish com ment because of the rains in the eastern belt and the cold weather in the western belt. Private reports from tSe west were to the effect that the soil was very wet with standing water in the fields in many sections, so that blowing has become very backward. It was generally consid- cred that the low temperatures would have the effect of, preventing the wet fields from drying out. At the same time weather conditions did not arouse general buying.

Chicago. January 27.-F'irmness de yeloped in the corn market today after an early decline. One of the reasons for the rally was bullish construction put upon the trade reviews of the fed eral reserve bank here The close was steady at the same as yesterdays finish to 14c higher with May s1.s51s to s1.S5ss and July sl.32ss. YIn oats the outcome was virtually unchanged, and in provisions varied from 25c decline to 200 advance.
 The feature of the federal reserve bank review which gave satisfaction to bullish traders in corn was a state ment that demand for commodities out runs the possibility of providing a sup ply.
 Announcement that President Wilson was urging $15,0O0,00o loan to central Europe and the near east was also re- garded< as bullish.
 on the other hand selling pressuee which at first dominated the market was due chiefly to new breaks in for eign exchange and to weakness of rye. As result of lack of foreign demand, rye quotations today were 200 bushel under recent top figures.
 Oats were steadied through buying for houses with seaboard connections
 Provisions averaged lower in sympa- thy with foreign exchange. It was said packers were hedging more than at any time in the last five years.
