COTTON SWEPT
 INTO NEW HIGHS
Active Realizing In Late Trading Brings
 Declines

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-Continuation of the recent buying movement in the high ground for the season during to- days early trading. Realizing became more active after the advance to 25.14c for January, however, and that position closing at 24.75c. The general market closed steady, net unchanged to IS points higher.
 The opening was firm at an advance of IS to 34 points on relatively firm late cotton market carried prices into new cables from Liverpool and reports from Fall River that print cloth sales for the week had aggregated 100000 pieces, the largest total for months. A good deal of releasing and some southern hedge selling was absorbed on very slight recessions. Buying for time was even more active and broader than since the advance started, and sufficient to send the active months 45 to 53 points net higher, with December selling at 24.95c and March at 25.45c, of g to g points above the low prices of last Saturday morning. The demand seemed to taper off around these figures. although there was no special change in the general news to attract comment, and the mar ket later turned easier under weekend realizing and a little more selling for southern account.
 December reacted to 24.52c and March to 25.O2c, or within few points of yes terday's closing quotations. Last prices were only a few points up from the low est on covering and trade buying.
 The report of the census bureau show ing 532, ,629 bales consumed by domestic mills for October, was a factor on the early advance. There also was a good deal of bullish comment on the com paratively small stocks held in consum- ing establishments at the end of last month Most advices reported steady situation, but more selling orders were said to be reaching here from the south on the advance of this morning and again in the later trading.
 Exports today, 35,093, making 2,42S,- 356 so far this season. Port receipts, 5s,s66; United States port stocks, 1,34o,- 333.

WHEAT VALUES
 SUFFER SETBACK
Setback Caused By Drop . In Foreign Buying And
 Realizing

CHICAGO. Nov. 14.-With foreign buying apparently holding off as much as possible and with many speculative holders disposed to sell out and realize profits, wheat underwent a material setback in price today, especially dur ing the last half hour. Very favorapie crop reports from Argentina led to only a temporary upturn. Closing quotations on wheat were weak, 1% to 3hc net lower, December, $1.51% @1.52 and May, S1 .5S6s 61 .58N Corn finished Is to 1Mc off, oats 1B to 1A 91%c down and pro visions varying from 37c decline to 12c gain.
 Hardly 100000 bushels of wheat ap- peared to have been purchased today for shipment to Europe and there seemed to be general disposition 10 be looked for in view of the recent Dig advance. Early downturns in quota tions. however were soon more than overcome by receipt of private cables from Argentina pointing to virtual crop failure in some sections or that country as a result of drought and oth- CT causes. Meanwhile steadiness of the Liverpool wheat market together with strength of sterling exchange helped also to rally prices here.
 Profit taking sales which were urgent ly pressed after the wheat market had risen about one cent over yesterdays finish, carried values down rather rap idly as the day approached an end. The late decline dislodged quite number of orders to sell in order to stop losses at certain definite limits.
 Corn and oats followed in the wake of wheat, rallying after an early decline but then breaking again. Primary re- ceipts of corn totalled only about half as much as was the case year ago. Husking reports, too, continued to be disappointing.
 Provisions averaged lower, chieriy 1n- fluenced by the hog market.

 Both high and low priced rail liens were centered out for attention. Spirited bidding for New York Central 6s car ried this issue up 1h to<a q new top at 11%. A brisk rise in New Haven Is and convertible 6s followed reports that the roads refunding program would be carried out successfully in advance of maturities next year. n,6.
 Other bonds which participated in the upward movement ineiuded Interna- tionai Great Norther5k 5dstment ss, Shore As, Kansas City Southern 5s and Seaboard 5s and 6s.1 Profit taking con- tinued in other departments with the general price average showing little change.

WOOL REVIEW

BOSTON, Nov. 14.-The Commercial Bulletin tomorrow will say:
 Wool values continue to rise the world over. The consumers are now be- ginning to feel the pinch of short stocks, which is resulting in speculative buying with increasing fervor, even at the high prices now ruling.
 Manufacturers who have not antici- pated the election results have been the chief buyers in the last week. They evil dently are getting more encouragement on the goods end of the market, re- ports from New York indicating a scramble on overcoatings.
 America is buying steadily in Aus tralia and Is commencing to operate in Argentina. Bradford is strong, with de- mand centering on sos and below.
 "Western contracting continues but prices do not show much further rise.
 "Mohair is very firm at recent quota tions."

NEW ORLEANS COTTON


 NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 14.-The cot ton market was active today and dur ing the morning advanced fully A points on the most active trading month over the previous close, but lost all of the gain during the afternoon on sell ing for a reaction and on weekend liq- uidation. The early advance was due largely to firm Liverpool cables and to a bullish October consumption report by the census bureau coupled with reports of rain and colder weather in Texas and Oklahoma. The main reason as- signed for the reaction of the afternoon was the belief that a reaction was due.
 At the start the market advanced on the good Liverpool cables, first trades showing gains of 20 to 25 points. This gain was added to later in the morning after the publication of the consumption report. At the highest of the day De- cember traded at 2499c, January at "A .aSc and March at 25.21c, or 3S to A points above yesterdays close. The reaction of the afternoon carried prices down practically to the closing levels of yesterday but slight rally near the end permitted the market to close show ing net gain for the day or 10 points.
 One of the bullish developments of the day was the report of Secretary Hester on mill takings for the week of 4OS,OO0 bales against 364,000 last year. This was offset, however, by the large increase in the visible supply in American of 256, ,979 bales against an increase for the corresponding week last year of 86,1S9 bales.
 Spot sales today at New Orleans were large, totaling 6,576 bales and spot sales at all reporting markets for the day reached 51 ,591 bales. Fall River report ed sales of cloths for the week totaling 300 ,O0O pieces, the largest total in long while.
