Weekly Cotton Review

New Orleans, January 25.--The cotton market moved over only narrow range last week, there being only from l07 to f36 points between the highest and the lowest levels. Net changes on the close were advances of 12 points to de- clines of AS points. Tn the spot depart ment prices lost 25 points. Market closed at 7.62, which compared with 40.00 as the spot price on middling.
 The favorable trade situation the staple is in furnished the main buying incentive this week, while unfavorable political news, slumps in foreign ex- changes and higher money rates were mainly back of the selling. Some little selling followed the census bureau re- port on ginning to January 16 of f0,322, 1 14s bales gecause it indicated produc- tion this last period of 304,0 bales against 1000 the same period last year and 136.000 two years ago. Sta . tistics off the week. however. were mostly bullish and mill takings of 324,- 900 bales against 223, 900 this week last year and 271,000 two years ago caused some buying.
 At the end of the week there was a buying furry, following heavy rains ir the belt and this coming week it l. likely that increased attention will be pald weather coHullioHs pecduse oi Lte claim that west of the Mississippi river work in preparation for planting the new crop is backward Bright. warn. weather probably would cause more or less selling. but the trade 7iil be in cIined to buy if more wet weather is ex- perienced.
 Strong periods followed the favorable rumors of last week regarding efforts to ratify the peace treaty and any fla vorable news from Washington this week along this line would meet witt quick response from the market. Spot demand will command attention be- cause of recent rumors that spot shorts were paying large sums to be released from engagements calling for the de- livery on high grades.
