NEW YORK, November New
York's social season will be opened
formally next week with the premiere
at the Metropolitan Opera House
Monday night. This marks the
earliest opening opera has had in
New York. two weeks in advance of
former years. Following the first
week of the opera will come the
luncheons, receptions dinners and
dances for debutantes, who will hold
the center of the social stage until
after the Christmas holidays. There
are to be about 135 Young women
presented to society this season and
as this will mean an unusually large
amount of entertaining it is fortu-
nate that the season opens earlier,
for it is now almost impossible to
obtain a date for a large dance with
out conflicting with some other
hostess.
Aida will be the initial perform
ance at the Metropolitan and the
season will last "a weeks. as it did
last year, which marked the longeS
consecutive season at the Metropoli-
tan. Giulio Gatta aSazZa is the gen.

together the most distinguished fig

TODAY'S COTTON PRICES.

NEW YORK, January 10.-There
was only very moderate volume OF
business in the cotton market during
today's early trading, but prices
ruled generally steady on the better
tone of the late Liverpool cables, re-
ports that further sales of spot cot
ton had been made out of the local
stock, covering and a little buying
for trade account. The opening was
steady at a decline of two points to
an advance of ten points, with jan
uary relatively easy on reports that
notices representing about 1,600 bales
had been issued.
NEW ORLEANS, January 10.-Ad-
Vanoes of 10 to 25 points were made
by cotton in the first half hour of the
session today, March rising to 34.97
cents a pound and October to 2S.10.
Further claims of good spot demand
in the interior appeared to be back
of the demand for contracts. Wet
weather was regarded as unfavorable
for the new crop because of the re-
sulting delay to plowing and this
made October the strongest month in
the early trading.
NEW YORK, January 10.-Cotton

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK. January 10.-Trading
in the bond market started off with a
rush today, quotations for all grades
OF securities advancing, but with the
chief interest in the second grade and
speculative issues Dealings In st.
Paul junior bonds verged upon the
spectacular
The impetus for this last-named
movement was the announcement
that the St. Paul had successfully
marketed a new s14.0Oo,0o0 bond is

TENS requirements up to the maturity
or the European loan As in 1925 The
new bonds carry per cent coupons.

general mortgage IS OF 1899, and were
ofrered at 96A to yield more than 65
per cent.
Sharp Advance Results.
The immediate effect was a jump
of more than two points in the As
of 1925, which have been selling at
a very large discount for a bond of
such short term. Dealings were on
a heavy scale. All the other issues
secured under the refunding mort
gage advanced in lesser degree So
did the Puget Sound As, which are
the first lien on the Pacific coast ex-
tension. The reaction upon the out
standing general mortgage AVS. how
ever. was unfavorable, holders ap-
parently disliking any additional is
sues Of bonds on a parity as to Sc
curity with those already outstand-
ing.
Next in interest to the st. Paul
group was the New Haven. The
debenture 6s of that road were rushed
up above 81. These debentures are
now secured under the first and re-
active buying of the debenture Is of
1925. both the dollar and the franc
bonds. In the Seaboard list the 6s
touched II, new high on this move.
High-Grnde Rails TIP.
In bonds of higher grade Western
Maryland As above 81 and Baltimore
and Ohio convertible AVS above 81
were conspicuous. The last named
equaled the high of 1923. Maturing
in March. 1893. these Baltimore and
Ohio bonds are typical of those mid
die maturities which have been so
largely neglected in the present mar
ket. As 1t stands these 4hs of 1893
yield almost per cent at today's
price.
Outside the railroad list in the
higher grade bonds, American Tele-
phone and Telegraph 5hs made an
other new high. The buying here was
eviatI evidentiy entirely ,na i;,, Of Investment
again today and most of them higher
Probably the increasing ease in the
money market is responsible for the
heavy buying of government bonds.

NEW YORK, January 10.-Stock
prices continued their movement to
higher ground in today's active stock
market despite heavy profit taking
and bear selling in various sections
of the list Bullish operations were
encouraged by the increase in the un-
filled tonnage of the U. S. Steel Cor
poration, breaking of the deadlock
over the craftsmanship of the inter-
state commerce committee of the Sem
ate, high lead and eastern crude oil
prices and lower money rates. Sales
approximated 100000 shares.
The closing was irregular. 1nde-
pendent steels, Remington Typewriter

demand in the late dealings, but fresh
selling broke out in some of the oils,
motors and tobaccos.
