the World.

Departing from custom, the Feder-

the work being done by Near East

menian and Syrian Relief which has
essayed the task of caring for 1,25O,-
600 starving people in Western Asia.
Resolutions adopted by the executive
committee as announced by Charles S.
Macfarand, general secretary, are as
follows:
Your committee recommends that
prayers be offered in all our churches
for the suffering children throughout
the world, especially those who are in
distress and peril as the result of the
war.
"They further recommend that we
reatfirm and emphasize our interest
and cooperation in the plans Of

New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, Jan. 14.-Thc marke for cotton contracts opened lower today and remained depressed throughout the session, reaching it's lowest levels late in the day. Final prices were at declines for the ses- sion of 57 to 66 points, realizing by early sellers causing steadiness on the close.
 The main reason for the selling was the internal troubles of Ger many, although tight money and ru- mors of higher discount rates had something to do with the offerings.
 The census bureau figures on American mills for December were called very favorable but they had absolutely no effect on the market, even the statistics on active spin dies, which counted them at the record breaking total of 34,594,2li being ignored. Spots were off to 25 points to 40.25 for middling, which compared with 3S.75 as the closing price on January

MARKET NERVOUS DUE 10 RUMOR OF
 SIEGE IN GERMANY

New York, Jan. 14 Reports that q state of siege had been declared throughout most sections of Ger many seemed responsible for good deal of nervousness and uncertainty ln the cotton market today. Aside from that sentiment was influenced by the unsettled tone of the stock market, high call money rates and easier foreign exchange, and there was break of about 50 to 78 points in prices. The general list closed steady at net decline of 30 to 70 points.
 The market opened steady at an advance of 10 points to decline of l2 points. Liverpool made a rela- lively steady showing and there was some scattered buying on the census &eport showing domestic mill con sumption of 5ll ,5S3 bales for Dccem- Der against 412 ,9OS last year. This demand proved insufficient to ab- sorb a renewel of Wall street wcs- tern and local selling however, and prices soon showed net losses. Ral- lies followed on covering and trade buying but the market weakened again during the afternoon owing to the easier turn in the stock market and nervousness over general cundI- tiOnS
