COTTON MARKET is
STEADY AT CLOSE
Session Given Over to Pre-
Holiday Professional Even
ing Up Trading.

The cotton market yesterday was a
typical preholiday affair OF evening up
by professionals and scattered give ana
take by Wall Street interests. The
volume OF outside business wa- reg..gi-
BILE, few in the trade being inclined TO
make new commitments for over the
week. end. due to uncertainty regarding
tho foreign political situation. That
there wasNa sufficient short interest In
the market to absorb most of what was
offered was evident at all times. At It's
best level the market was up 10 20
points net, with December across the
15 cent level to 1906. The list was
unable to hold all of that gain and closed
3 to 15 points higher, with local spot
unchanged at 1886 cents.
After opening narrowly irregular, with
3 points advance to points decline on
active months, the market showed a
saSging tendency on pressure from New
Orleans and local bears. The list slipped
off about to IL points net before rally
ing on short covering. Steadiness was
probably the only forenoon feature, and
no change to speak of was noticeable as
business progressed. Liverpool cables
showed an irregularly fluctuating market
on the other side, but Manchester ad-
vices continued poor.
At the end of the third hour buying
power was heavier and the market made
a few new highs. The general tone was
hardly better than steady. however. ana
ring professionals were sellers on bulges.
Sentiment at the moment is mixed. Due
to lack OF fresh developments many
operators feel that it would be safe TO
await some definite word rs new crop
progress. That the acreage will be cut
is virtually assured--to what degree
remains to be seen. The market was
finally steady, a few points under the
top.

CHICAGO PRICES.

The largest export sales of cash grain
yesterday were OF corn, $4,000 bushels
having been worked to foreign Govern
ments The corn sale led TO buying or
the futures, and that market advanced
toward the end of the session and closed
above Thursdays final sale, while wheat
closed lower Exporters sold also about
$1,000 bushels of rye, but no wheat.
There is little or no demand for wheat
for export here, because of the fact that
the Southern hemisphere is underselling
the United States. Argentine prices
were quoted IS cents under those OF this
country; and Belgium was reported 10
have reentered that market. Germany
was said to be anxious TO cancel ship
ment of wheat purchased here IL salts
factory arrangements could be made.
The Grecian Government will buy CO.,
600 barrels of flour provided the hnan-
cling of that purchase can be arranged.
according to a flour man. The domestic
flour trade remains dull, with Western
mills closing and no information as TO
how many will reopen on Monday.
