COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK. April 1.-THE cotton
market here made a comparatively
steady showing during today's early
trading. The unfavorable British la
Dor situation was reflected in weaker
Liverpool cables. but the local mar
ket opened at a decline Of only to 8
points under southern selling and
liquidation. The latter was promoted
by weakness in the stock market, and
there was some Wall street selling
after the call. with May easing of to
1872, and July to 12.47, or about six
teen points net lower.

NEW ORLEANS, April 14.-The un-
favorable tone of British labor news
and a lower Liverpool market than
due caused a decline in the price Of
cotton here today, which in the first
half hour OF the session amounted to
II to 16 points. May dropping to 1l.57
Traders were rather disappointed over
the March figWes on American con-
sumption from the census bureau of
437.933 bales. which were consider
ably below expectations.

FOREIGN TRADE NOTES,

The American Chamber of Com
merce for the Levant, headquarters at
Constantinople. has opened a bureau
of information to handle inquiries
concerning trade openings, invest
ment opportunities and queries re-
garding conditions and firms in the
Near East.
A commercial treaty between Fin
land and Esthonia is now under con-
sderation.
Exports declared for the United
States at the American consulate at
Valparaiso, Chile. decreased from $l8.-
o45,0o0 in 1919 to $16.167,000 during
the last year.
Heavy orders for American machin-
cry have been placed recently by Aus
tralian firms. and it is reported that
further orders are likely to follow, as
satisfaction has been given
Consul Edward A. Dow reports from
Algiers that the recent increase in
the weight limit Of parcel post pack
ages exchanged between the United
States and Algiers may serve as an
opening wedge in the revival of AL
geria's import business with the
United States, which has fallen off
sharply. owing to the depreciation OF
the French franc on the American
market.

Another new high for Chinese rail-
way SIS, at 46A, was one of the fea-
lures of the foreign division. City
