STEAD|NESS LAID
To DULL TRADING
Lack of Offerings Rather
Than Buying Cited as
Market Factor.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 6.-The rel
alive steadiness of the stock market
all during the unsettlement in sterling
exchange has been due more to the lack
of offerings than to any buying sup
port.
There are three kinds of selling that
affects prices. First there is short SELL
ing, but that never alarms the expert
enced trader, who knows that every
short contract must eventually be re-
tired and that every short seller must
eventually be a buyer. Short selling
can depress prices. but not permanently
in itself.
The second kind is the liquidation Of
the stocks held in margin accounts or
as collateral for bank loans. That may
break the market wide open, as it did
in the Fall of 1929 and as it did re-
peatedly during the bear market when
stocks were coming out of bank loans.
No such situation obtains today. The
market is as thoroughly liquidated as
it has ever been, considering the num-
Der of issues listed.
The third is the offering for account
of investors of stocks owned outright.
No market can stand up indefinitely
under that kind of pressure and it is
this sort of selling which the bears try
to anticipate. There is practically no
investment liquidation in the market at
the present time, but it might easily
come if and when the real owners of
stocks are convinced that the financial
and business situation is becoming
worse instead of better.

BIG STEEL RAIL ORDER
PLACED BY SANTA FE

NEW YORK. December (4).-Santa
Fe Railroad directors have authorized
the purchase of 26,484 tons of steel
rails. President w. B. Storey announced
today.
This is one of the largest rail orders
placed this year. In former years much
larger orders for rails were common at
this season, but the 1882 volume of
buying will be the smallest in many
years, according to steel executives.
1t has been reported that a number
of the railroads have considered placing
fair sized tonnages for rails, but have
been holding off in the belief that a
further cut in the price may yet be
made.

low PRICE COTTON
0LDST0RY IN SOUTH
Bulletin on Output Issued 88
+ Years Ago Still Ap-
j plies to Crop.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ATLANTA, October s. - There's
nothing new about the worry over low
prices and overproduction of cotton in
the South. Farmers and Government
officials were alarmed over the Situa-
ton back in 1874, when there was a
carry-over of 904 900 bales and fear was
expressed that the growing crop would
exceed 1900 900 bales.
Agricultural journals have been print
ing editorials suggesting remedies Tor
the problem of the cotton planter, and
readers have been writing letters to edl-
tors expodnding their theories, for at
least hundred years
Excerpts From Report.
With the exception of the number
of bales, the following eXceptS from
Government cotton report issued 90
wears ago by the patents commissioner
might have been written TODAY:
''The subject of preparing cotton for
market is one which at the present time
deserves the serious attention OF the
planter. While the overproductlon IS
so great, and the price is so low, his sue
cess must depend much upon the supe-
rioritv of his cotton and, OF course,
that which, other things being equal. is
best prepared will find the readlest sale
and command the best price.
The increasing amount OF the cotton
crop from year to year which finds no
market to keep pace with the .produc-
ton begins justly to excite serious ap-
prehension as to the result. In the
public journals and agricultural publ
cations of the cotton growing States we
find frequent communications pointing
to the necessity of curtaillng the cot
ton crop. cultivating a sufticlency OF
provisions on their own lands ana
manufacturing at home the articles
which are purchased from other States
Reaches Fearful Amount.
''The stock on hand will be much
larger than usual. Add to this the
larger stock of 1874. and the remaining
stock (even allowing considerable for
increased conSumption) will be ad-
vanced SO that eventually the amount
left of one year may almost supply the
demand for the year abroad.
We may, therefore, hope that some
check will be given to the production of
cotton. it having already reached
fearful amount. We enter the Euro
pean market, this year, with capital
of, say 100000 bales; a stock on hand
October l, of 100000 bales. The con-
sequent prices are below the cost OF
production; we cannot grow it for 4
cents net at the present high prices of
slaves. etc.
But suppose this crop exceeds $780,
600 bales, as some suppose, and con-
sumption proceeds as for 1912 and
1843 We must then enter the market
in October, 1845, with a stock on hand
of over 100000 bales, with the pros
pect that before 1847 we will have
enough for two years consumption then
In the market. Will it then sell?"
