COTTON ADVANCES
IN BRIEF SESSION
increasing Demand for Tex
tiles Here and Abroad
BuIIish Factor.

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK. January 15.-Reiter
ated reports Of increasing demand for
cotton goods at home and abroad and
firmer Liverpool cables were followed
by further advance in the cotton
market today. After selling up to
13.41 at the start. March reacted to
1892, but later advanced to 13.45, or
10 points above yesterdays closing
figures and into new high ground for
the movement. closing at 1886. The
general market closed barely steady
at net advances of to points.
The opening was steady at an ad-
vance of 4 to 10 points on a continual
ton of the recent buying movement.
evidently stimulated by reports that
sales of cotton goods in the local
market for the past week had been
the heaviest for months. and cable
advices reporting an encouraging de
mand for cotton cloth from India in
the British market.
Low temperatures following recent
rains in the South were also factor.
as they suggested a further delay in
picking, but the initial advance met
good deal of realizing for over the
week end. while there was also rather
heavy selling for Southern account.
The bulk of this was attributed to
profit taking on long contracts rather
than hedging, however. and the trade
was evidently impressed by the APP
parent ability of the market to absorb
large offerings on reactions of some
or 10 points from the best.
Prices steadied around 1927 for
January, and 1852 for May, later
selling up sharply on covering by
recent sellers, for reaction, combined
with renewed trade and commission
house demand. January sold at 1894
and May at 1855, but the close was
several points off from the best under
realizing.
Private cables said early hedge
selling in Liverpool had been absorbed
by good trade calling. together with
continental and Bombay buying. and
added there had been a fair turnover
in yarns. 49,.
The amount of cotton on shipboard
awaiting clearance at the end of the
week was estimated at $4,000 bales
against 21S. 900 last year.

STEEL IRREGULAR;

NEW YORK. January Is. - Steel
ruled irregular during the past week
with concessions offered by most pro.
ducers of sheets and strips owing to
keen competition. while in order
products steadiness prevailed The
general outlook remained encoIra cling
with the best demand from railroads.
Trade requirements of car builders for
f1rSt quarter of year are estimated at
100000 to 100000 tons. Structural
steel orders were also better. The de-
mand for pig iron showed improve
ment, with pipe founderies more inter
ested following price reduction.
a decidedly better tone developed in
the copper market. The December
statistics showing the large reserves
OF reflned copper had evidently been
discounted and when their publication
failed to disturb prices consumers en-
tered the market in a larger way with
several thousand tons sold at advanc.
ing prices. The bulk of the business
was reported at about the 1871 cent
level delivered at Connecticut Valley
points, with small sales reported later
Al the 1875 cent level. An improved
export demand was also reported with
an advance in c. |. (. prices, but bust.
ness seemed to slow UP at the higher
prices.
Tin slightly more active, with most
of the business between dealers. Con
sumers were entering the market only
for requirements, with this attitude
due largely to the uncertainty of price
movements.
Lead was in somewhat better de-
mand, with buying mainly to meet
nearby requirements. Prices averaged
q shade easier.
Zinc ruled slightly easier and there
followed a better demand.
Anthony was firmer and more con-
Stunning interest was noted with the
market Influenced by the advance in
Chinese rate of exchange.

Market Influenced by Relative
Firmness of Liverpool
Wheat Quotations

Chicago, Dec. observation-disclosures
by relative firmness of Liverpool
wheat quotations and by unfavor-
able weather in the corn belt, grain
prices tended upward early today.
Buying, however, was chiefly Of a
scattering character. Opening at
Is to 1-2 cent higher; wheat later
scored some additional gains. Corn
started unchanged to IL cent. up,
and subsequently made a moderate
general advance. Oats were firmcr.
Provisions inclined to sag.
Advices current today from a rec
ognizcd trade authority said heavy
European requirements for wheat
during the winter and spring are
confirmed, and will have to be fur
nished from exporters supplies,
which, however, are also large. Ac-
cording to this same source of in
formation there, the requirements
may offset the available supplies
unless Argentine shipments should
prove to be of sufficient volume to
ovcrwhelm the buyers market.
In addition to adverse weather
likely to interfere with the move
mcnt Of corn from rural districts,
comparative smallness Of receipts
today at leading terminals gave con-
siderable strength at times to the
corn market. Corn arrivals at Chi
cago today were Of only fair volume,
1873 cars, and at Kansas City and
Omaha were but 3S cars and II cars,
respectively.

Alaskans Seek Patrol
Like Canadian Police

Anchorage, Alaska, Dec. o.
Multiplication for patrol system
like that Of the Canadian Mounted
Police has grown out Of the recent
disappearance of two old-time pros
pectors.
Kris Kline, one of the missing
men, was traced to . crevasse across
q glacier trail. The other, Nike
Trapke, disappeared while journey
ing from Talkeetna to Susitna, q dis.
lance Of so miles. Both are believed
to have persisted.
It developed that regulations do
not permit a marshal or deputy
marshal to leave the beaten high
ways to investigate alleged crime
or to give aid to men in distress,
unless so ordered by the district
court and by it provided with funds
to defray expenses.
A force patterned after the Ca
madam organization, it is pointed
out, would find much useful service
to perform in this territory, search
ing out lost men and running down
fugitives.

LOnd0ners Lose 696
Umbrellas in Day

London, Dec. 20. (AP) = More
umbrellas, attache-cases, business
and private papers and other possess
sions are being left behind in Lon
don's omnibuses, tramcsrs and pub
lie vehicles than ever before.
The commissioner Of police for the
metropolis reports that last year the
number Of articles deposited at the
lost property department under his
control touched the high figure of
170,257, an increase Of 6,678 on the
previous year, and an approximate
increase of 100 per cent since 1921.
The largest number of articles de-
posted in one day was 1929. Six
hundred and ninety-six umbrellas, or
camps, as they are known here, were
found in one day. The articles de-
posted ranged from baby's shoe
to jewelry worth many hundreds Of
dollars.
About Al per cent of the lost arti-
cles were returned to their owners.
Practically all Of the articles valued
at more than $25 were restored.

Partisan Advertises
French Spoken Here

Paris, Dec. %. - R) - "French
Spoken" is the astonishing sign on
a Paris restaurant.
It is a bit Of sardonic humor by
q proprietor who finds himself en-
quilted by foreigners in the Latin
Quarter, where students and art
lists from all countries Of the world
gather.
High costs Of living have kept
down the proportion of French stu
dents, and the magnetism Of Paris
has drawn increasing numbers OF
other nationalities to this center.
Formerly some knowledge of
French was acquired by the young
Bohemians, but the students find
less and less need Of it. There are
Chinese, Swedish, Czechoslovak,
Rumanian and other restaurants
where little national groups gather
at first, but soon they spread out
to other eating places, and Latin
Quarter dining-room conversations
have become hodge-podges Of
strange languages.

Men Rouge Buyers
Abound in Chicago

Chicago, Dec. %. - (AP) - Paris
may be excited over the use of pow
ders, rouge and cosmetics by men,
but in some sections of Chicago such
use is quite a matter Of course-al-
though by no means general.
Druggists on the near north side,
a section much favored by artists,
models and others Of Bohemian ilk,
say that men who buy rouge and
face powder aresmuch more finicky
about it than women. Many of them
bubble over the proper shade Of lip
stick and the tint Of powder they
desire.
It is not a case of effeminacy,
some of the druggists say, but just
the changing times, like the man
ner in which women now buy Gig
arettes, where a few years ago they
wouldnte think Of asking for them
openly. \
