New Orleans Cotton


 New Orleans. February 24-Prices were lower in the cotton market to- day from the opening and lowest prices came in the last few minutes of the day when the market stood, 66 to v points down. New low levels for the season were made with March at 12.03. Closing prices were at losses of 65 to 77 points.
 The market staggered under a flood of bearish news throughout the ses- sion and had bearish traders been more aggressive prices would have been even lower than they were. As it was most traded on the short side appeared to be in conservative frame of mind and their realizing of profits furnished the ring with a good part of its demand. Much of the selling was caused by, .unfavorablese accounts from interior spot centers to further liquidation by holders.
 The lower opening was to be traced to the selling movement that started in Liverpool before the American mar kets opened caused, according to private cable.grams, to bank pressing mills to liquidate loans. The decline was continued on the weakness of silver in the London market, reports of mills shortening running time on both sides of the Atlantic and to in creased receipts of spots at some in- terior points.

BEARS HAVE ADVANTAGE IN WHEAT TRADING IN
 THE CHICAGO GRAIN PIT
Rx Associated Press

Chicago, February 24.-Bears had a
 decided advantage in the wheat market
 today, owing to uneasiness regarding
 the industrial outlook. Prices closed
 heavy, sA to 494c net lower with
 March s1.6T to s1.s7h, and May s1.562i to s1.57. Corn finished 11ac to 1hc down. oats off 3sc to 1hc, and pro- visions at a setback of 7c to 22c. Wheat values began to shrink as soon as the market was open. Wash .
 ington dispatches telling of the mili- tant position which labor unions had
 taken as to injunction and other re- lated subjects was clearly the main factor The majority of traders ap- peared to be impressed with belief that prospects of better business condi- tions soon had been dimmed. Much of the selling that took place was said to be in the nature of liquidation. Rally ing power failed to develop, a special l reason being report that the head Of | the federal reserve bank at Dallas. Tex, was advising farmers to sell. Some notice was given also to state
 ments that the greater part of the wheat arriving in Minneapolis came l from Canada. On the decline in prices
 Italy bought 100000 bushels.
 | Corn and oats sagged with wheat. despite assertions that Germany would I import 1S.500 900 bushels of corn to cut down wheat requirements. Big ar rivals of corn had considerable bear ! ish effect.
 Weakness in provisions was ascribed 1 to the down-turn in the grain markets.

ALL MONTHS BUT
 OCTOBER to ID
 NEW LOW RECORDS
In Closing Hour Market Was Barely Steady, at a Net De- cline of Fifty-five to
 Seventy-one Points
By Associated Press

New York, February 2.-The cotton market was extremely weak and unset tied today, with all deliveries but Oc- tober making new To wrecords for the season. May deliveries sold off from l5.42c to 1z.76c and closed at 12.Tc, with the general market closing barely steady al net decline of 55 to 7 points.
 The tone was fairly steady at the start, first prices being unchanged to points lower, which was better than due on the weak cables as a result of covering and some scattered buying inspired by the hope c a rally after the stopping ct March notices yesterday. There was a good deal of southern selling, however, and the market soon weakened on the untaYorabie reports from Manchester and renewed apprehensions of increased old crop offerings before the new crop was planted. The latter were inspired bye reports that southwestern bankers were advising liquidation of cotton, grain and cattle, in order that farmers
 might reduce their obligations. Senti- men, was also unsettled by claims that some cotton might come back here from Liverpool for delivery on contract and that one lot or 100 bales was already on it's way from the other side. Weakness III the London market for bar silver lower foreign exchange rates and talk of less satisfactory conditions in domes- tic goods markets were contributing fac tors on the break which carried active months 59 to 70 points net flower. March sold at 12.25c and July at 1S.23c and the close was within a point or two of the lowest, although Japanese and conti- mental mill interests were reported good buyers on a scale down. Only one March notice was reported and the May pre- mium was reduced to. about 50 points Weakness in the grain marke tmay have accounted for some of the selling, which included western and Wall street lioui' dation. Exports today, 194 bales, max :Ig 3.S9,336 so far this season. Port re- ceipts, 12,3s1; United States port stocks J, ,450. .276.

STOCKS NERVOUS AND UNSETTLED DURING SESSION Gossip Says Severe Price Cut ting May Take Place By Independents In the
 Steel Trade
By Associated Press

New York, February 24.-The stock market was very nervous and unsettled today, various developments in the course of the fairly active session giv- ing material acceleration to- the fur ther downward course or quoted values Chief among these was the an nouncement that one of the largest of the independent steel manufacturers in the Pfttsburg district following the ex ample set by it's competitors, had or dered a 20 per cent wage reduction. ef fectfve March 1.
 This was accompanied by gossip on the stock exchange that an "open mar ket" or severe price cutting would en- sue, but in well-informed quarters such sction was regarded as highly improb- able, or at least premature.
 Another unfavorable incident was the suspension of the quarterly divi dend on Ajax Rubber. While causing no surprise. in view of financial state- ment recently issued by that company, the effect upon rubber issues and nu- merous affiliated shares was unmis- takah1e.
 Advices dealing with latest aspects of the chemical and fertilizer trades
 
 specting those industries and gave added force to the persistent pressure directed against those stocks by pro- fessional interests.
 Steels, equipments, shippings, oiis, motors and other accessories as well as copper, food and tobacco shares were involved in the decline, with sundry specialties, including the mail order group at net losses of 1 to points, but reactions among rails were relatively unimportant.
 Sales amounted to 535, 900 shares.
 Call money again held at the fixed rate of per cent and time funds were available in moderate amounts for the shorter rates Exchange on London eased and the entire continental list > of remittances eased appreciably
 The feature of the. irregular bond market was the decline on Liberty 3 tss to below S1. Most other domestic and foreign issues were variably lower, es- pecially industrials. Total sales, par value. $10,175,0O0.
