NEW YORK COTTON
NEW ORLEANS COTTON


 NEW ORLEANS, Jan- 25.-The main movement in the price of cotton today was downward, and the main influence was the disappointing showing of mill takings. They stimulated a great deal of liquidation of long contracts and also encouraged new selling for short account on a large scale, so that in the late trading, when shorts tried to realize profits, they found a consid- erably strengthened technical position to deal with, and their purchases in the last half hour caused reactions from the lowest levels.
 Around the opening, the favorable showing of Liverpool and the wet and cold weather over the belt aroused enough buying to put prices 13 to 1s points higher than the close of yes terday, but when March touched S3.S1c a pound and October touched 27.62c, new selling appeared. Buyers were held in check by small sales in Ameri- can cloth markets. The market com menced to ease off, but did. not exhibit real weakness until after the posting of the weekly statistics. Then a sharp break occurred and the decline persist ed until March was down to 33.05c and October was off to 27.22c. Here the list was 26 to 61 points under the last prices of yesterday. The close was at net losses on the day of 12 to fl points, the last sale of March contracts being at 33.25c and of October at 27.36c.
 Much of the selling of the day was done on takings of American cotton of 199,000 bales by the mills of the world, against 224,000 this week last year and 272,000 this week two years ago, but selling increased greatly when the falling off in takings by Ameri- can mills was noted. Southern mills took 35,000 bales, against 64,OOO and 2.000, and northern mills took 31 900, against 55,000 and 61 900.

COTTON BREAKS
 AFTER ADVANCE
Covering At Lower Levels And Market Firms Up Near
 Close

NEW YORK, Jan. f25-A moderate early advance on relatively firm Liver pool cables met increased offerings in the cotton market today. and. after selling at 33.90c, May broke to ss.25c during the early afternoon. There was enough covering to check the decline at this figure and cause rallies of 20 or so from the lowest, with May clos ing at 33.42c. The general market 30 to Al points on old crop months, while late deliveries were 2 to 20 points net lower. The market opened steady at a decline of 10 points to an advance of II points. There were some over night selling orders around the ring, but they were soon absorbed and the market worked up several points dur ing the early trading on the favorable Liverpool cables and bullish overnights from the southern spot markets. March advanced to 33,68c and July to 32.74c. or IA to 15 points net higher, but at these figures there was re- newed liquidation, and tho market turned weak during the eakly after noon. Reports that southern mills were selling hedges here against accumulat- Ing StoCkS OL BOOuo, Ad0 dH uHsctlAiuS effect on sentiment, and the market was also influenced by weakness in New Orleans, and New Orleans selling orders were received here. A few stop orders were uncovered as prices eased off, sending March down to 32.96c and July to 32.0Sc, or 50 to 58 points below yesterdays closing figures in active old crop positions. New crop months held relatively steady. but October de- clined to 2775c, compared with 2S05c at the close yesterday. More covering developed at the lower levels, and the market firmed up in the last half hour, when sentiment was influenced by re- ports of a strong stock market and there was considerable Wall street buying on the late rally. Closing prices showed recoverey of about Is to .22 points from the lowest. There was some bearish comment on the weekend fig ures, but they were not considered an important factor in the market.

ALL GRAINS SAG
 IN CHICAGO PIT
Most Authorities Believe Re action Transient And To Have
 Been Expected

CHICAGO, Jan. 25.-Heavy profit taking sales on future delivery con tracts here and reports of increased rural offerings in various sections of the country gave the corn market to- day something of a setback. The result was that corn, wheat and oats all closed unsettled, corn $ to %@Mc net lower; May, S0@S0hc, with wheat A@hc net down; May, $1.09 and July, $1.07%, and oats varying from %c decline to %c ad- vance.
 Provisions finished unchanged to 17c down.
 The stubbornness with which the corn market absorbed profit-taking sales led to conclusion in some quar- ters that a broader buying demand was posed. On the other hand, for the first time in quite . while the primary re- ceipts of corn were larger than was the case year ago, and there was much interest shown in the fact that a leading trader here, who has been talk ing bullish for weeks. went over today to the bear side. He predicted more than a temporary recession of values. Other authorities, however, expressed the opinion that the reaction was tran sient,- and was to have, been expected in view of the numerous upturns of late.
 Bulls in the corn market pointed out that, although there had been some in- crease of country offerings and of con- signment notices, the grain was largely going to southwestern markets, which were outbidding Chicago. It was con- tended also that from present pros poets the winter accumulation of corn at Chicago and at other visible supply centers would be the smallest in years.
 Wheat was weakened by reports that France had cancelled some small pur- chases. Seaboard clearances, though, were large-more than 1000, ,000 bushels, chiefly Canadian-grown.
 Selling by packers and commission houses eased provisions.

DUN's REVIEW

N ~ . VIEW
 NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-Dun's tomor- Tow will say:
 "More evidence of a gain in business is seen in some branches, though in others an increase is slow to appear. Irregularity still marks the situation in many lines, but the net change has been moderately for the better. Low temperatures in many places, with a belated cold wave in parts of the east early this week, reduced stocks of heavy weight clothing, and reports from the retail field have improved. Yet the moro important news has not come from that quarter, but from the steel industry, which Is now on an 80 per cent basis of operation. Buying so far this year has been large enough ! in some cases at slightly higher prices, to give practical assurance that mills will be kept busy for several months, and inquiry for pig iron has broadened noticeably in some districts. The re- newed activity in steel is of large sig nificance, but the same favorable con ditions do not generally prevail.
