General List Closed Steady,
Net One Point Higher to
Fifteen Points Lower on
the Day

New York, December 29.-The cot
ton market was very quiet today and
irregular. Fluctuations were attrib-
uted chiefly to evening up of com
mitments for over the approaching
holidays. After selling at 1890
early, March contracts eased off to
IS csc and closed at IS. 75c, compared
with 1S.74c at the close yesterday.
The general market closed steady,

er. active months being / point high
er to Z points lower.
The market showed a fairly steady
tone at the start and after opening
points lower to points higher,
sold up a point or two on the rela-
tiN ely steady Liverpool cables. Re-
ports that an Italian bank had closed
its doors made rather an unfavorable
impression ON sentiment, but IL was
stated that it was not failure, but
a moratorium, and the market held
pretty well during the morning.
There was little trade buying
which helped to absorb scattering
liquidation. and there was some New
Orleans buying here around midday,
accompanied by reports that cable
advices received in the southern mar
ket stated that an EngllSh nfm nau
sold $4,000 bales of cotton goods to
India These features failed to
stimulate any general buying, how
ever. and prices turned easier during
the afternoon on reports that the
New York branch of the Italian bank,
whose troubles had been reported
earlier in the day, had suspended.
There was no active or general sell
ing, but scattering liquidation made
itself felt in a narrow market, with
May contracts selling off from
is. S3c, the early high level, to 1880.
while October declined to 16 soc,
making net losses of about 10 to 10
points The close was several points
up from the lowest on covering, but
business during the entire day was
so quiet that local brokers attached
no special Significance to the price
movements The early steadiness
was encouraged by reiterated re-
ports of prospects for a better bust
ness in the cotton goods market and
expectations that Fall River would
report a good volume of sales for
the week There was no change In
the news from southern spot markets
and very little southern selling was
reported here.

As Told Over the .
Local Private Wires


New York, December % Speei@i''
The cotton market has been compare
lively narrow with only smal ORDERS
either way and fairly well divided
so that no important changes in price
have resulted, though the tone mas
been a shade easier, rejecting the
reactionary sentiment among local
traders who have contributed the
bulk of the business today Every
thing considered it must be admitted
that the market has given a very
good account of itself. for which the
bullish tenor of spot advices is large
ly responsible.
Spot houses were fair buyers of
March and May, policy which COM
mends itself to us on any moderate
reactions.
The stock market today has been
somewhat heavy as seemed probable
and during the forenoon quite dull,
but with some increasing activity in
the last hour. 1t is the final day in
which transactions will apply for
1921 and therefore special influences
anpeared in the market in the shape
of belated loss recording The gov
eminent crop report on winter wheat
and rye as of December has been
published, showing about the same
acreage in wheat but with decline
of nearly ~ points IN average No"
dition while rye showed an increased
acreage and improved condition. 1t
is reported that one of the large
Italian banks was experiencing diff
culties and had to ask moratorium.
otherwise there has been little news
of interest. The market itself showed
no distinct tendency today but re-

HuBnARD,s LETTER

New York. December 29--(Special)
The market was uneasy shortly after
the opening call due to the Italian
bank failure and renewed liquidation.
Nevertheless the market remained
quiet but steady with little outside
business during the afternoon. 1t
seems the trade is awaiting the new
year to see if the anticipated revival
of trade will really take place. Our
opinion is that the market. having
had its 2-cent advance in the past
week, will be inclined to ease off
temporarily until fresh news appears.
Manchester reports more inquiries
and the spot basis remains steady, but
the spinners must enter the market
actively before any advance of mo-
ment occurs.
