DOMESTIC INFLUENCES
OFFSET FOREIGN FACTOR

CHICAGO, January 14.-Although
the fall of the French cabinet was
followed by a decline in wheat prices
this week, better domestic milling de-
mand and a prospective reduction of
the United States visible supply have
largely acted as an offset. Compared
with week ago, wheat this morning
varied from q lower to Is advance,
corn was Il off to Is up and oats
showed gains of 1saA. In provisions
the week brought a rise varying from
35 to 1.43.
1T was generally assured at first
that the sudden change in the French
government might mean considerable
uncertainty and delay in grain busl-
ness with Europe. Later. however,
traders again took greater interest in
ordinary market factors than in for
eign political complications. Bearish
elements of the Argentine exportab BILE
surplus counted at one time as
weight on values, and so, too. did
rains in Kansas and elsewhere south
west and false reports of bank trou-
bles in France. On the other hand,
buying of wheat for Russian relief
and the absorption of So-called dis
tressed holdings of -four opened the
way apparently for better demand
from millerS. Decreased primary re-
ceipts of wheat gave some basis, too,
for predictions of smaller visible sup
ply figures.
Corn was steadied in price by an
active demand from the seaboard.
Meanwhile, the south and southeast
gave signs of wanting oats.
Provisions reflected upturns in the
value of hogs.

COTTON MARKET
NERVOUS AND UNSETTLED

NEW YORK, January 14.-The
nervousness which had developed in
the cotton market Immediately after
the holidays remained in evidence. and
there was continued liquidation dur
ing the earlier part of the past week.
Offerings became lighter after a de-
cline of about l y cents a pound from
recent high levels and after selling at
1852 on Wednesday, March contracts
showed rallies of about 40 points as
result of covering and a little more
trade buying. This Improvement was
not fully maintained. as the resigning
of the French cabinet had an unset
tling effect, but liquidation has been
less active since the middle OF the
week, and there has been no material
selling pressure from the south. AS
result there was feeling among
local brokers toward the end of the
week that pre-holiday purchases in
the futures market had been pretty
well sold out, and while 1t Is believed
that scattering lots Of spot cotton
have been coming on the southern
markets from day to day there has
been nothing to indicate any general
weakness in that quarter.
The decline in raw material has
checked business in the domestic mar
kets for cotton goods, but more en-
couraging reports have been received
from Manchester indicating a better
business in India, and there has been
nothing heard of any curtailment of
domestic mill operations.
The census report showing 7,8S4.272
bales ginned up to January l. or only
?O,94O bales for the last half of Decem-
Der. was rather under expectations.
1t was most generally regarded as ia
voring estimates of slightly under
rather than above the official forecast
of S,340,OO0 bales for the crop, but
did not cause a sufficient change in
sentiment to substantially influence
the market.

II SCOTTISH WOOLEN
DELEGATES REACH D. C..
Largest Body of Business Men tc
Leave British Isles to Study
Conditions.

Seventeen representatives of the
Scottish Wooden Trademark Associa-
tion. said TO be the largest delegation
of business men ever to leave the Brit
ish Isles. arrived in Washington to-
day and conferred with officials of the
United States Chamber of Commerce
from 10:3o O'Clock until IL. shortly
after ] o'clock they We're entertained
at luncheon at the British embassy by
Sir Auckland Geddes, the ambassador
The delegation represents three
quarters of the output of Scottish
woolenS in Great Britain and has. it
is said, the Endorsement Of Lloyd
George and the secretary Of state for
Scotland and the keeper of the great
seal.
The purpose of the visit to the
United States, il is announced, is
three fold, first. TO do their hit in
promoting better feeling between the
United States and the British Isles

can market with a view to giving
their American customers better

been granted by the British govern
ment as a standard of quality"

EMPLOYEES of Smith & Wesson, pis-
tol manufacturers, have been notified
to report for work Monday, when a
wage reduction Of 20 per cent will be
put into effect. The plant has been
closed since last July, owing to busi-
ness conditions.
Goatskin importers find themselves
in difficult position because OF the
varying rates of exchange. Patnas,
imported from India, which one i'm
porter buys in lots from $4,000 up
ward, were quoted at $3.50 per dozen
few weeks ago. Today the same
goods are quoted at $3.50.
Coco has become stronger the last
two weeks This, commodity has ex-
perienced a big 'def1ation. Certain
grades that had sold for IS cents
dropped to 8. Candy manufacturers
preparing for Easter trade are in the
market
Manicure sets are in better demand
than for some time. The Christmas
trade cleared the shelves of much of
these goods. Manufacturers agents
are now out for spring business.
A jobber of machinery for dairies
and ice cream manufacturers is ex-
periencing dull business. Low prices
for farm products prevent purchases
of dairy equipment, and Ice cream
makers are not buying machinery.
The manager of an agency for a
brand of domestic stoves and ranges
asserts the sales of equipment with
enamel finish have shown a notable
increase. Such ranges are popular
with housewives, owing to their ap-
pearance, but are not as durable as
fashioned cast-iron goods.
The popularity Of a department
stores counters where patterns for
women's clothes, cloths for suits and
coats are sold indicates that many
persons still are economizing.
A tourist agency reports a greater
demand for trips to Florida and the
West Indies than at this season in
1921. Interest in tours to the ma
tional parks this summer also is de-
veloping now, earlier than usual.
Fresh apricots. almonds, cucumbers
and alligator pears completed a sue
cessful journey from Chile last week
for the first time. They enable fruit
dealers to add new variety to their
stocks.
Typewriters. adding machines,
loose-leaf devices and duplicating
machines have been selling well, in
the opinion of distributors OF office
appliances.
A manufacturer Of leather goods re-
ports that his retail department has
been selling many trunks, suitcases
and travelling bags, although whole
sale transactions are few. Smaller
leather articles were in greater de-
mand last year at this time than the
more expensive goods.

TRADE REVIEW,

NEW YORK, January 14-Dun's
review of trade says: 1.-THE develop
ment of general activity in business
is still delayed, but the prospect of
further gradual revival remains. An
nual inventories have not yet been
complete in all instances, causing
temporary deferment of new COM
mitments and many interests are dis
posed to adhere to conservative
policy. While confidence has unmis-
takably strengthened different uncer-
tainties make for continued caution
and rapid commercial expansion is
not to be expected. A number of
factors. however. encourage the re-
lease Of some orders that have been
held in obeyance and the large at
tendance of merchants in certain
primary markets occasions favorable
comment
'The easing in money rates, which
has been extended in the new year. is
one of the constructive forces pres
ent and the comparative stability Of
wholesale prices serves to somewhat
lessen hesitation in buying. With
recognition OF existing conditions of
unemployment and their effect on the
public consuming capacity, dealers
demands to cover probable future re-
ouirements are chiefly Of moderate
size. although appearing more fire.
