WEEKLY REVIEW OF
 THE COTTON TRADE
Gel on Closes i0 10 60 Points Up, After Gaining 150 Points Earlier in the
 Week

New Orleans Nov. 27-While the cotton market stood at an advance over the close of the proceeding week throughout the week just end ed there were reactions during the last two sessions which wiped out q good part of the gains established in the earlier sessions At the highest of the week prices were IF to 161 points up, while the close showed gains of only 30 To 60 points. De cember traded up to f7.S2 and closed at 1670. First December notices caused considerable liquidation of the long interest at the end of the week and Population more than anything else WaS responsible for the reac- tions In the spot department mid ding gained - points in the net re- suits, closing at 17.25 against 1900 cents year ago.
 Buying of the carly part of the week was done on improvement in the spot situation. apparently due to a demand consequent upon the filling of December commitment and on the favorable construction placed on the gining figures from the Census Bureau which made the total output to the 14th of November 7.27O.575 bales in dicatng production during the fifth ginning period of only G19.7SJ bales against 1 100000 the same period last year and 1,145.549 during the fourth period this year. While the figures were quite generally accepted as con firming crop ideas of around S,000.000 bales. such a yield no longer is looked tpon as q bear argument.
 Some of the improvement in the spot demand was sad to he due to purchases by Liverpool. supposed to the result of improvement in Man chester owing to the breaking up of the Ghandi boycott ill India.
