preferred stock outstanding.
Officials Of the corporation have
planned to reduce the par value of its
stock for several months. At its present
selling price Of $625 the stock has been
considered by them out Of reach OF the
average investor. It has thus operated
against q wide distribution OF shares

COFFEE MARKET.

A recovery of $50 to ESQ refs in the
Santos futures market yesterday was
followed here by an opening advance
Of 4 TO Is points and later gains of "a
points net at midday. The firmness
was due in a measure to the fact that
December contracts were going into
strong hands through purchases and In
switching, the difference between De-
cember and May having narrowed 10
points during the forenoon trading. An
other feature which steadied the local
situation was the fact that pressure
from Santos had been relieved, at least
temporarily, by the purchase of approx

Sentiment In the cotton market was
somewhat less bearish yesterday. but ex-
cept for period the last hour prices
were generally less than Tuesdays final

OF dull day, marked by pre-holiday
evening up by Wall Street interests. 1t
was apparent that several shorts feared
the safety of their position over the
Thanksgiving holiday and at times found
the available supply of contracts limited.
Trade buying. which has been absent for
several days, appeared In moderate
volume at times near the close. There
was no change in the general situation.
but many thought that the bearish fea-
lures had been discounted. Liverpool
cables were poor and trade news con-
tinued pessimistic. 1t was the first notice
day for the December option and notices
Of about 700 bales were issued.
Part OF the early selling undoubtedly
was created by the favorable weekly
