LABOR TROUBLES
AFFECT TRADING
Complications Attending British Coal
Strike Cause Early Selling
of Cotton.

NEW ORLEANS, May 13.-The labor
troubles of Great Britain played an
important part in trading in cotton
today, the complications attending the
coal strike being responsible for early
selling under which the market lost
II to IL points, compared with yes
terdays close. After a period of stead
mess and recovery, the market again
weakened and in the late trading made
new low levels for the session, finally
closing at the lowest of the day at net
losses of 16 to % points. For this
break the report cab,ed from Manches-
ter that mill operatives had refused
to agree to the wage cuts proposition
made by the master spinncrs was the
main cause. July closed at 1850.
After the initial decline, good sup
port was offered the market, bullish
traders being impressed by the sales
of 10000 pieces of print cloths, re-
turned by Fall river as the turnover
for the week in that market and by
the favorable items in the federal re-
serve boards weekly statement. Much
was made of the rise to $50 in the
ratio of reserves to liabilities. A lit
tie later European messages saying
that peace had been restored in upper
Silesia caused further buying and car
ried prices to the highest of the day
where they showed gains over yester-
days close of to 10 points. July
traded up to 1916.
Weather reports from the belt were
more favorable not so much rain be-
ing noted, while temperatures were
warmer in all districts but weather
news inspired only moderate selling.

NEW YORK, May 13-Stocks were
irregular at the outset Of today's SEES

We're prominent on the constructive

These gained the upper hand in the
final hour.
Lower money rates, the stronger po-
sition of the federal reserve banks and
the decision of the federal reserve
board to extend acceptances of import
and export bills to six months were
among the factors which gave i'm
petus to the market.
Call money opened and renewed in
to next week at IL per cent, as COM

situations, were disposed to lend more
freely on the short loans and COM

Less apprehension was excited by
the question of additional dividend re-
auctions or suspensions and invest

COTTON MARKET
WEEKLY REVIEW

NEW YORK, May 13.-The official

end of the week there were threaten
ing complications both with reference
to the handling of imported coal and
the attitude OF Lancashire operatives
toward the proposed cut of 80 per
cent in wages. Otherwise, comment on
the weeks news has been generally
favorable. Many traders here regarded
the agreement on reparations as an
important step toward a gradual re-
vival Of export business, particularly
in view of the progress reported in
plans for financing shipments and the
firmer ruling of foreign exchange
rates. Rumors that large loans had al
ready been negotiated by shippers as
a. result of recent conferences have not
been confirmed, but developments in
that direction are anticipated, Accord

sumption for April ran below the
