In the Cotton Markets
CBv Thomson & McKinnon)

NEW YORK, Dec. 28.-The cotton
market was 7 or points lower this
morning, probably in sympathy
with other markets, as there was a
fair amount of trade buying. The
Far East appears to be buying cot
ton, both in the south and in New
York.
China is also in the market. Spot
sales last week in the ten principal
markets were three times as great
as for the same week last year. The
public interest in the market is
probably very small.
Technically, we think the mar
ket is gradually improving as cotton
is rapidly passing out of first hands.
The low price leads us to the be-
lief that investment buying on a
scale down will prove profitable.

York leads with a rate of 1899.
In Line With Others
Indiana is the only industrial
state without some form of corpora
ton tax. We may expect to raise
about $6,00O,OO0 by this form of tax
alton and be in line with other
states.
I'VE are working steadily toward
complete submersion of property
values. Farm lands still are selling
much lower than those of our sur
rounding states, because we do not
relieve the property tax load in any
large way Indiana land sells at 81
per cent of the 1914 price, while
Kentucky land sells at 81, Illinois
and Ohio at 96 and Michigan at liz

Bonds Show Firmness

No little help was given the stock
market by a firmer tendency in
bonds where railroad issues again
turned upward. Grains also were
steadier and cotton gained a few
points.
Call money held at 3 per cent
with a firm undertone. Demand for
funds at this time of year were re-
Elected in the treasury offering of
500, 100000 of 91-day bills sold at
a bank discount interest rate of 81
per cent, compared with 259 per
cent for an issue sold on Nov. 80.
This firmer situation, however, was
not expected to continue because of
lack Of demand for commercial pur-
poses.
