PRICE OF COTTON BOND PRICES RISE TENDS DOWNW ARD OVER BROAD tST

NEW YORK, Jan. I1.-Reports of a strong spot and statistical position were reflected by advances in the cotton market during the earlier part of the week, but prices eased off later when the attention of traders ap- peared to be turning to complaints of a continued poor demand for cotton goods and reports of mill curtail ment.
 March contracts, which had sold off to 34.31c late Tn the previous week, rallied to S5.S2c Tuesday, broke to 33.S4c during the days trading or about 259 points below the high price touched on the advance of late last month. There was no change in the general character of the news from southern spot markets to account for the easier tone, which developed after the early week advance to about the S512c level for May de- liveries. Further tenders or reten ders of cotton have been made on January contracts, but they have been absorbed on comparatively moderate increase in the January dis count, and there have been persistent reports that much of the cotton taken up here is to be exported or shipped to domestic mills. These op- erations in the local market have been accompanied by claims of firm spot situation in the south and as very little or no cotton is now arriv- ing here for consignment, decrease in the local certificated stock is quite generally expected within the next month or so. Such features, however, have failed any perceptible broaden ing of demand on the advances while a disposition to llquidate old long holdings has been promoted by rela- lively easy Liverpool cables, opti- mistic views of coming crop prospects and feeling that earlier season ad- vances were providing a more de- cided check upon consumption than previously supposed. In this connec- tfon a private report was published. estimating domestic consumption for December at only 382,000 bales com pared with 531,000 for November and 528,OO0 for December last year. These figures did not have much !m- mediate effect on the market, but appeared to be coming in for recon sideration toward the end of the week and led to some uncertainty as tn the probable showing of the census report on Monday. The report of the census bureau on ginnings io Jan uary indicating an nut-tCrn Of e,SO713S bales to that date was shade aoore expectations, IT any . thing but was not regarded by iota a. statisticians as justifyirg any i'm portant revision of crop estimates
