NEW ORLEANS COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 13.-The cotton market was fairly active for a short session and fluctuations, while not par ticularly wide, were two-sided. The market eased off at the start on lower cables than due and on the census pu- feaus consumption report showing do- mestic mill consumption during Novem- Der 492, ,233 bales, which was smaller than was expected, and mill stocks of 1.O46.612 bales, which showed a consid- erable increase over the month previous. When Memphis reported that the sales of 10000 spots was the sales for the week, yesterdays sales being only 3,7OO bales. the market eased off again, helped by weekend realizing, and the financial result showed a net loss of 12 points on January.
 The market opened easier owing to disappointing cables, but showed resist ance to the decline for a brief period, and eased off more. rapidly after the yAnsumption report was published, drop ping 19 to g points down from the previous close. The latter rally carried prices 24 to 27 points up from the lows, and 5 points net higher from the pre- vious close, but most of the recovery was lost in the last half hour of trad ing. The close showed net losses of IF to 16 points. December showing the greater loss.
 While the market was sensitive to the days developments the undertone re- mained comparatively strong owing to the strength of high grades of cotton as result of the recent big advance in Egyptian cotton. Exports for the day totaled 1884 bales.

CURB EXCHANGE

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-The market on the curb exchange today assumed exceptionally broad trading line for a short session and, along with the prlsk activity throughout the list, prices in several recent leaders were advanced to new high levels There was special at tention given to the urgent buying in Nickel Plate issues both of which rose to high figures at S9 for the common and 89k for the preferred. Common high selling at 126. Radio shares were in increased demand at moderate ad- vances.
 After slow opening the petroleum group followed the vigorous trading in other sections and the volume of bus1- ness was on a much greater scale than had been witnessed in many weeks. Advances of from one to five points were noted in some of the nose promi- nent issues. Prairie Oil sold from 1991s to 2-5 and Standard Oil of Indiana rose more than a point to 60A. Numerous gains of a point or more were dlStrlD- uted throughout the list.
 After a show of strength in the first few days, the curb market was irregu- lar in the mid-Week interval when many stocks were under pressure in harmony with declines on the tsock exchange. This situation changed abruptly Friday when a strong buying power was again in evidence and there were violent ad- vances in numerous issues.
 Most interest was attached to the trading in the Nickel Plate issues which were the strongest features all through h the week. Coal stocks were active Lehigh Valley coal showed strength for a time, but weakened when other groups became heavy, yielding some points from it's high level followed by an upturn yesterday. There was heavy trading in Southern Coal and Iron, ac- companied by announcements of an in crease In the companys ore supply.
 Radio issues yielded sharply after showing strength Tuesday, but showed a better tone in the trading yesterday and today. Commonwealth Power swung over a wide range. Continental Baking A. moved up on the dividend declaration, but reacted from its higt level. Motor stocks were strong.

COTTON DECLINE HELD IN CHECK Small Consumption Pro- notes Profit
 Taking

NEW YORK, Dec. 13-Yesterday's ad- vances in the cotton market were fol- lowed by moderate reactions today. A disposition to take profits on recent purchases was prompted by relatively easy Liverpool cables and the smaller domestic figures than expected. De- clines. however, were held in check by the continued bullish character or southern spot advices. After selling early at 23.14c, March contracts rallied to 23. roc, and closed at 23.55c, the gen eraI market closing steady at net oe- clines of to 12 points.
 The market opened to 21 points lower, under liquidation, local and southern selling. Liverpool was lower than due. The report of the census bu- reau placing domestic mill consumption for November at 492, bales, was pc pc low the forecast, comparing with 63l,olS last month, and 532, TOP last year. Eariy offerings, however, appeared to be read ilv absorbed at the decline to 23.04c for January and 2483c for May, and the market turned upward on reports that the spot basis in the, south was stifrer and that exporters were showing more interest. Some traders also figured that allowing for five Sundays and holidays, the rate of consumption per working day during November, showed furtner improvement compared with previous months since last July. This probability helped the market.
 JanuSry rallied to 23.31c and May to 24.07c, but the demand was not active or general and closing prices were ID to IT noints off from the best under re- newed realizing.
 Private cables reported some early covering by shorts owing to the further advance in Egyptian cotton, which closed at net gains of 55 to 65 points in the Liverpool m 7rket. Later, Liverpool eased off, presumably under realizing:

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-The stock market closed the week with strong undertope. With the advances Of the day, which ran from fractions to nearly Sh points, the market regained most of the ground lost during the sharp le- action in mid-week.
 Thirty-five issues. including eight mo tors and accessories, seven rails and seven public utilities, created new maxi mum quotations for the year. The Ilst included practically all of the van Sweringen stocks, which made TUT ther favorable response to the Erie di- rectors' approval of the Nickel Plate lease. and such widely diversified is- sues as Jordan and Maxwell motors, ln- ternational Telephone, West Pennsylva- mia Power, Telautograph, American Car and Foundry, American Radiator, Con tinental Can, Chicago Pneumatic Tool, Iron Products, United Drug, Great Western Sugar, Simmons Company, Ar mour of Delaware preferred.
