COTTON

NEW YORK. Nov. 26.-The cot
ton market showed renewed firm
ness early today with January anu
all later deliveries making new high
records for the season because OF
the relatively high cables, reports of
a. strong tone in the stock market,
rallies in foreign exchange rates, and
the issuance of comparatively few
notices against December contracts.
The opening was firm at an advance
of five to fifteen points, and the ac-
tive months soon showed net adj
vances of thirty to thirty-fiVe points,
with January selling at $500 and
March at $3.50. December advanced
to $3.50. or within fifteen points of
the recent high record. and thirty
six points net higher. Liverpool
cables attributed advances from an
opening decline in that market to
trade calling.
The December notices were estl-
mated at about 400 bales. Their
circulation appeared to be causing
no special liquidation, but after the
early buvins had been supplied on
the advance to 35.0S for January
and 1852 for March, the market
eased off under scattered sellnS.
There were reactions of some 20 to
* noints from the best, but the Of
ferings were not heavy and prices
steadied up again later on buliisil
advices. and the reports OF an IN
creased demand for cotton goods IN
the local market late last week.
January was selling around $3.50
and May 35.44 at midday or "A 20
26 no;nts net higher.
The market showed increaslns
firmness during the midle OF the alt'
ernoon on reports. that December
notices had been stopped and tha'
both Bremen and Liverpool were puy
ing spot cotton in the southwest
December sold up to 1853 or A points
net higher and later months made
new high records with January sell
ing at 1910 and May at 1887 or 81
points above Saturdays closing.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Nov. 20
Better cables than due, accounts OF

 from the Remainder.

The Territorial Canvassing Board met at 10 a. m. today to begin it's canvass of the votes cast in the elee- tion last November Every member of the Board, Gov. Scott C. Bone, chairman; Karl Theile, and J. C. Mcbride, was present. The meet ing Is being held in the Governor s office.
 No list of the missing precincts had been made this morning, but 1t was known that complete official returns had been received from but one Division, the First. In each the other three a few of the more re- mote precincts are still missing
 Members of the Board did not ex- pect the canvass to occupy great deal of time, although 1t is not im- probable that it may have to adjourn for a few weeks to await the arrival of the returns from the unreported precincts. In the Second and Third Divisions, two races for positions in the lower House are so close that an official tabulation will be necessary to determine the winner In the Second Division, returns wired by the Clerk of Court show but three votes between Mrs. Kittelson and Raelson for the fourth place on the Legislative ticket. In the Third Dl vision, Ray, Democrat, and Stdsef Republican, were running neck ant neck in the latest incomplete returns reported. It may take the coinplet. iclurns from both Divisions to settle ihCst two contests.

London to Economize
 In All Electricity

LONDON, Jan. 13.-London's cleo tric lighting bill will be cut by $5,000,000 yearly it is believed, when a project now in course of completion is made effective.
 This provides for the uniting of all electrical supply companies in London and the suburbs. covering an area of 1860 square miles and affecting population of close on eight million people. There will be only twelve generating stations in the whole area, against about fifty now in existence, and the saving will allow of reduction in cost oi something like 15 per cent. per unit
