In the japanese camp probably more
optimism prevailed regarding an ul-

was based. 1t was said, on the Japa.

loan the Chinese the money for 10
years with a five year option.
The Chinese contention continues to
be that they cannot accept a Japa.
nese loan in payment for the railroad
because that would merely be turning
the road back on paper while in ac-
tual fact the Japanese would be in
complete control of both.

Birmingham, March 4.-After rul- ing dull for two or three days, the cotton market sagged today to the weeks lowest levels on selling by tired holders, weekend liquidation and professional selling, a London ca Q ble stating Lancashire regarded the proposed increase in India customs duty as a gtave injury and the ex- pectation that Liverpol will come over Monday lower than due. How ever, some of the bearish sentiment that came into the market during the short session today was offset by Sec retary Hester's fertilizer statement showing a decrease of 16 per cent from last year and 70 per cent from the year before.
 Fall River sales for the week were i50,00o pieces; curtailment of produc- tion for the week was quite heavy, due to influenza among emlpoyes New York cloth markets were mar row, some fair-sized sales reported, however. Exports for the week were 77.300,. and the season. S.S00.000 bales, against 3,42o.000 last year.
 Southern spot markets sold 1000 bales yesterday at quotations about unchanged. A general improvement in the south is being noted, and it will be no surprise to see the south ern cotton mills enter the markets in the near future, and when this ma terializes we will witness a sharp ad = vance from present levels.-S R.
