WEEKLY COTTON REVIEW
By Associated Press

New York February lS.-heouctiohs lin the estimates of the worlds avalia- ble supply of cotton of all kinds for the season and reports or an improve |ment in Liverpool led to rallies in the |cotton market during the aerlier part |of the past week. The advance met realizing, and probably some increased southern offerings, however, and the market weakened again with March contracts making a new low record for the season during today's trading, Brokers with Wall street connections were considered the most active buy~ lers on the early week advance, sup- posedly, on expectations of an im- Iprovem4nt in general trade conditions lnext month Such views were proba- lbly encouraged by increlsed spot sales In Liverpool and reports of better Itone in Lancashire. while it was also argued that the development of the incoming administrators foreign poll licies might have a clarifying influ- lence on foreign trade conditions. The icensus report showing domestic mill 1consumption of 366,270 bales, com> pared with 294.s51 for December, lshowed about the expected increase, land was not marked factor of any l Importance; More attention was att | ttracted by reports that the DuFeau ok markets, in making up recent figures ion available supplies. had used an old |estimate of the East Indian crop, and ithat revision, based upon the latest of ificial reports from India, made re- t?duction of 100000 bales in the total, lnecessitating similar change is est>- mates of the carry-over at the end of lthls season. This, of course. did not iaffect figures on the supply of Ameri- joan grown cotton, and the appearance lof increased hedge selling on the mid lweek advance was a disappointment Ito recent buyers.

MARCH CONTRACTS MADE LOW RECORD
 FOR THE SEASON
At Close of Trading Cotton Market Was Steady at Net Decline of Thirteen to
 TWenty-nine Points
By Associated Press

New York, February 1S.--The cot ton market was easier today with March contracts making a new low record for the season, while May sold off to 1S.5oc, or within 20 points of the previous low price. That sdeliv- cry closed at 1s.S0c, with the general list closing at a net decline iof 13 to 29 points. No fresh news factor of importance was discussed as the cause of the selling, which local brokers most generally attributed to the liquidation of discouraged long ac- counts or scattering pressure from the south. Liverpool was slightly un- der expectations and the market here opened at decline of to 16 points. Selling was held in check at the start by the firm opening of foreign ex
 change rates and estimates that Fall River sales of print cloths for the week had amounted to 150o00 pieces. Slight rallies met offerings from one source or another however, and liquidation became more general during the early afternoon. owing to disappointing re- ports from the stock market and easier turns in foreign exchange rates. Wall street brokers were among the more active sellers on the decline, which carried March contracts off to 13.o2c and July to 13.91c, or 27 to 31 points net lower on the active months.
 An idea that advances were meet ing increased spot offerings was con- sidered largely responsible for the liquidation of recent purchases, but the decline was checked by trade buy ing orders which were In the market for expectation on scale down. Last prices showed rallies of few points from the lowest. Boston advices said that cotton shippers were asking for bids on consignments and were will- ing to accept low prices and south western selling here was accompanied by ruinors of increased spot offerings in the belt. Exports for the day were 375S bales, making 3.261.475 so far this season. Port receipts. 10.946 United States port stocks, 1,39S,74S

REACTION OF PRICES WAS DUE ID SAME WALL STREET CROWD
Money Market Was Easier to Extent That Call Loans Dropped From Seven to
 Six Per Cent
By Associated Press

Now York, February 1S.--The further reaction of prices in the stock market today was primarily due to the same ad> verse circumstances, and factors which have governed financial operations since the beginning of the year.
 Lack of buying power or public inter est is indicated by the meager business reported by commission houses, the poor earnings of railroads and industrial cor porauons and the slow revival of general business continued to initiate against constructive efforts.
 The money market was easier to the extent that call loans dropped from [ to per cent. A fair demand was noted for commercial paper and bank acceptances, but very little time money was obtain able, except for the shorter periods.
 Foreign exchange was more unsettled, rates on London falling to levels which effaced the greater part of their re- cent gains. Remittances to the continent, without exception, also were lower, gi~- ing especial polnt to the British premier s plea for back credits to central Europe.
 Bears were particularly aggressive in such issues as shippings, oils and motors at gross recessions of 2 to 10 points. Lit tie support was forthcoming, lowest prices being registered in many instances shortly before the close
 Atlantic, Gulf and West Indies common as the weakest and most active issue recovering only a fraction of it's extreme decline at a net loss of 91a points, Deal ings in this stock were in excess of hall it's capitalizatio and suggested down ward revision of the dividend. Represent tative rails, such as Norfolk and west ern and Reading, featured the few galns both advancing 11s points. The pono market was Irregular on reduced offer ings, Liberty and Victory issues closing mostly at nominal gains, but other do fr1estic issues as well as international f1otations, were inclined to react, espe- cially French municipals.
