Trend of Events
Looks Better During
the Weeks Trading
BY Associated Press

New York, November 1s.-A favor
able view of the opening develop
ments in the arms conference led to
a very sharp advance In the cotton
market at the beginning of the
week. There was evidently a feel
ing that any substantial reduction in
world expenditures on armament
would react most favorably upon
commodities, and January contracts
which had sold as low as 16 csc
last Saturday. advanced to 1870.
This Improvement was not fully
maintained owing to unfavorable
Lancashire trade advices and reports
of poor spot demand in the south,
but the more optimistic average of
sentiment has remained in evidence,
although coupled with more or less
nervousness of uncertainty regarding
the Immediate course of prices.
The census report showing domes-
tic consumption of 494.745 bales of
cotton for the month of October was
a shade under private forecasts, but
indicated a total of 1,615.305 bales
for the first three months of the sea-
son. including linters, with exports
of 1.S20.s40 for the same period.
According to local statisticians dis
tribution in the shape of home con-
sumption and exports. at this rate,
would amount to about 13,7O4.00o
bales. compared with crop estimates
ranging from around 100000 to s.
0Oo. 900 bales, or up to 100000 bales,
including linters. This comparison
is being used as basis for predic-
lions of very substantial decrease in
the carry-over. but the uncertain
ties OF exports for the balance of the
season have been emphasized by the
talk OF British trade depression.

Wall Street Worried
Over so Per Cent Tax
Say the Private Wires
SHANNON & co.'s LETTER

New York, November 1S.-(Special.)
1t has been a mixed cotton market
today with very little feature to the
trading, though some features to sta
tistics that might provide food for
thought for those who are short for
any other reason than as a hedge
against actual stuff of a tenderable
description.
Expectation as TO ginning figures
Monday are around 7.2 to 7.3 with a
bearish influence on sentiment il they
come as high as that though just
how a few hundred thousand bales
NOR cor less will settle the question
of lower or higher prices is hard to
explain. 1t is becoming increasingly
obvious as the season nears on that
the amount of cotton remaining TO
be carried over will not probably be
burdensome and may be reduced to a
point low enough to create a genuine
and widespread anxiety which would
be rendered very acute by any ad-
verse experiences of the next crop.
The stock market this morning was
confronted, with the unlocked for and
unwelcome decision OF the conference
to the SO per cent maximum In the
surtax. This action Is most deplor-
able as 1t Is this surtax more than
anything else which is keeping labor
unemployed and making for hard
times but our legislators are ignorant
of financial matters and they think
they are going to benefit the labor
ing man by taking away the invest
Ing power from the capitalist, dis
regarding the old maxim that YOU
cannot destroy the employer and con-
tinue to have labor employed at good
wages.
The market after some hesitation
closed fairly strong and we consider
that 1t gave a very good account Of
itself.-Post & Flagg.

REPORTS OF CROP
DAMAGE ABROAD
BULLS WHEAT LIST
Corn and Oats Both BolStered
Up in Sympathy, While the
Provisions List Some
what Varied

Chicago, November 1s.-Uneasiness
over reports of crop damage in Ar
gentina and Australia had a bullish
effect today on the wheat market
here. Prices closed firm at 2Mc to
3B c net advance. Corn gained lie to
1 " @11ac and oats NO Mc to 1c. In
provisions the outcome varied from
, unchanged figures to 10@121s
higher.
Crop damage in Argentina was at
trbiuted to hot wave. With deterio-
alton thus affecting both the impor-
tant wheat producing countries of the
southern hemisphere, the wheat mar
ket throughout the day evinced a de-
cided tendency to soar, for bears OF
late have put considerable stress on
prospects of a good yield in the har-
vest now at hand below the equator.
Another stimulus toward higher
prices was the scantiness of domestic
receipts.
The amount of grain in transit in
the northwest especially was said to
be the lightest at any time this sea-
son. Word of snow and rain at many
places failed to check the upward
movement of prices, 1t being contend
ed that no general breaking of the
drouth In the southwest was yet ap-
parent. The fact that 10 loads of
gulf wheat had been taken for ex-
port at lie better premium than yes
terday helped to inspire confidence
among buyers.
Government plans to assist In A.
nancing the domestic crop were given
increased attention in the corn and
oats trade Corn in particular was
more in demand. One authority es-
timated that before the end of the
crop year the country would face a
shortage of 250,0oo.o 900 bushels of corn
and oats combined.
Provisions tended upward with
hogs and grain.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
~ Aaanntot~d Draaa

New Orleans, November 1s.-There
were two outstanding features in the
cotton market today and they put
prices to higher levels following fore
noon selling of rather wishy-washy
character, which at one time de-
pressed prices to the extent of Is 10
20 points. The main feature was the
large weeks mill takings, 39s, 900

other feature was a private bureau
statement that 9S.s per cent of the
crop had been picked. At the highest
of the session prices were s to 20
points over the level of Yesterdays
close, while last prices showed net
gains on the day of 3 to IL points.
December sold down to 15.7c. rose as
high as 16.10c, and closed at 16.05c a
pound.
About the only reason for the early
softness was the poor showing of
liverpool The response to this
would probably have been more
marked but for the tendency on the
short side to take profits. After the
posting of the first of the weekly
statistics the market acquired an al

New York, November 1S.-Early de-

followed by rallies on bullish week.
end statistics in the cotton market
today. January deliveries sold up
from 16 .40c to 16 sac and closed az
1900, compared with 16. sac at the
close yesterday. The general market
closed steady net points higher
to 3 points lower.
The market opened steady at a de-
cline of to points and worked
gradually lower during the morning
under scattering pressure promoted
by the easier showing of Liverpool,
reports that voluntary short time in
Lancashire was Increasing and the
failure of early advices to confirm
yesterdays talk of better spot de-
mand in the south There was no
general or aggressive selling, but
scattering liquidation of December
had an unsettlin4 influence on the
general list, and actives months sold

nights closing quotations during the
middle of the day. with December
touching 16. 55c and March 16 4Sc.
The market then steadied on cover
ing which became more active late in
the afternoon on the continued free
export movement and big spinners'
takings. The latter, according to the
figures of the New York Cotton ex-
change amounted to 443.139 bales for
the week, compared with 247.76S last
year, and reported the largest taxi
fngs for any one week since January,
1920. when they totalled 100000 bales.
Reports of a continued slack de-
mand for goods in the primary mar
kets probably contributed to the
early decline, and sales of print
cloths at Fall River for the week
were estimated at only 10000 pieces.
In connection with an estimate of H.

Ia southern authority estimates that

advices said the decline there was
