COTTON

NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-The cotton market
showed renewed nervousness today. Liver
pool vas better than due. but New Orleans
was a seller here and after opening at an
advance of points on March but gener-
ally 1 to 4 points lower, active months
soon showed net losses of to points.
liverpool and some of the spot houses
bought on the decline to 1926 for March
and 1850 for May, but there was scatter
ing liquidation and the market was unset
tied by vague rumors of troubles in the dry
in the stock market were also an unsettling
factor and houses with Wall street connec-
lions were among the early sellers.
Liverpool weakness shortly after the local
opening and turned a seller here while
there was continued selling by New Orleans
and Wall street. March contracts sold off
to II .9S and May to II 80, making new de.
clines of 80 to SO points and new low ground
for the movement, but there was little
trade buying around the 1S-cent level for
March and prices rallied 10 or 20 points
from the lowest during the middle of the
day on covering. Nothing more definite
developed with reference to rumored troubles
nj the goods trade.
March sold up to 1920 during the early
afternoon on covering promoted by bullish
Quiet and the rally Of about % points from
the lowest was not fully maintained.

GRAIN

CHICAGO, Jan. Cit was a narrow mar
nervously. Business was almost entirely of
a local character and the same was true
in the other primary markets, according to
advices received by wire houses. Locals sold
at the start and forced a moderate break
but commission houses bought a good sized
amount on the dip, believed to be for a
local short, and this started a good rally.
The bulge brought out offerings from
local longs. Receipts of wheat were light.
Export bids were reported out of line and
London was reported to have cancelled
some wheat at &c under the cost Of replace
ment. The milling demand for wheat was
not so good and Minneapolis mills reported
a decrease in flour sales. Oklahoma week
~ report on crop conditions was bullish.
There were deliveries of 10000 bushels of
wheat on january contracts today. A sale
ter wheat at Sc Under May in store was
reported.
Wheat closed weak, 1ac to lie lower.
Corn was fairly steady in tone. Trade
was not large but the lack of selling pres
sure was noticeable. There were sales of
250000 bushels of corn to exporters from
this market over night and the removal of
hedges against this amount tended to sta
bilize prices. Domestic shipping demand
was light. Country offered little corn TO
arrive. Receipts were fairly heavy.
Conr closed steady at the same as yes
terday's finish t o1S higher.
Oats followed the leaders. Some long
oats were unloaded early but the bulge later
forced some short covering. Shipping de-
mand for oats was light.
Provisions were firmer in sympathy with
the upturn in hogs. \

SHEPARD & GLUcK COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, La, Jan. 8.-Depres-
sions ruled in the cotton market through
out the session today, vague rumors of i'm
pending finaCcial troubles still being heard
and unquestionably being the main factor
against values. The report of a bank fail
ure at st. Louis did not cause as much
uneasiness as did accounts of the situation
in Italy, where a crisis seems to have
arisen because of the monthly stock ex-
change settlement said to be set for to-
morrow. At the same tIIue Liverpool ca
bied: Financial reports greatly exagSer-
ated"
The opening was lower except on March,
which stood points up in first sales. The
decline continued until it amounted to "a
10 A. points, carrying March as low as
-U.93. Recoveries of a dollar a bale or
SO were brought about but upturns only
went SO far. Late in the session the mar.
ket was about dollar bale off
Weekend statistics were very bulish, hut
did no more than cause a steady market
around the middle of the day. Mill takings
were 100000 bales, against 274, 600 last
week and 297, 600 this week last year, while
the visible supply of American cotton lost
1850 bales. While there is much that is
bullish to be considered it is likely that
tomorrow's market will turn on reports
from Europe, particularly from Italy.
