CHICAGO, Nov. S.-There was pressure
on the wheat market today and the under
telling of the proposed erection of tariff
barrier against imports from all countries
and permitting the importation of prod
ucts from the domni0ns duty free proved
depressing factor. The selling was main
~ by commission houses and some of the
active local traders. There was good buy
December and pit crowd bought because
of this fact and also because of the firm
ness in corn. Cash wheat premiums Wera

NEW ORLEANS COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, NOV. 8,-Gln-
ming figures of 1854, 587 bales as the
production to the first of November,
fully met bullish expectations in the
cotton market today and prices were
8 to 5 points up on the opening. An
immense volume of realizing sales
met this small advance and drove
prices 6S to 81 points under the last
sales of Yesterday, December falling
to 1886 cents a pound after having
traded up to $3.50. New buying was
encouraged by these levels and at
the end of the first half hour rally
of so to so points from the lowest
occurred.
Fluctuations were not as wide as
usual. although the volume OF busI-
ness done was extremely large. Re,
alizing by longs continued on large
scale, but was met by new buying.
Near months were held down by re-
ported quiet in the spot department.
Soon after II o'clock December was
at S3.45, or II points under yester-
days close, but the most active dis.
t3nt months were much sire nger ana
at new high levels for the day. March
traded UP to 1859. Here the strong
est distant months were 7 to 10
points over yesterdays clio
Private reports from Fall River
estimating sales of print cloths
there for this week at 100000
pieces, the largest sales in weeks,
kilograms from Carolina mill points,
reporting a better demand for cot
ton yarns and stating that prices
of yarns had advanced six cents a
pound since the first of November
and kilograms from Dallis to the
effect that large buying orders for
spots were in that market all com
bined to put prices higher in the
afternoon and March bulged across
the 34-cent level to 34,O6. Deem
Der traded up to 1885. At these
levels, reached toward 1870 o'clock,
the list was 20 to 81 points higher
than the final sales of yesterday.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
COTTON

NEW YORK, Nov. S.-The cotton
market opened barely steady at a
decline of II to Is points and the
active positions sold 70 to 70 points
net lower after the call under heavy
realizing and selling for a reaction.
The latter was encouraged by the
rather easier ruling of Liverpool
and reports of warmer weather in
the belt, but trade interests were
active buyers on the declines when
also brought in re-buying by recent
sellers and prices soon recovered a
good part of the loss. January ad-
vanced to 1888, after selling off to
1926, with the general list about
IS to 80 points net lower during the
earlv trading. The census report
showing 7,454,5S7 bales ginned tr
November first, had no apparent IN
huence.
Trading was not so active later
and rallies of 40 or 45 points were
not fully maintained but the under
tone was generally steady on cover
ing and trade buying. January ruled
around 33 so at midday or 35 points
IN from the lowest and 30 points
below yesterdays closing. a private
report estimating the crop at $685..
600 bales, probably helped the early
rally but failed to have materially
effect on commission
hCLse demand.
There was a renewal of active
general buying during the early art
ernoon on reports of larger sales of
print cloth in the Fall River mar
ket and lllish spot advices from
the southwest. Prices made new
high record for the season with jan
uary selling up to 1887 or % points
net higher and were within a few
points of the best around two
o'clock.
