1 I York. Dee. 14.-~imiuenced by I
I firm cables and local shorts covering, the ;
1 cotton market j ened ‘-(ei. ty at 7 to 12 :
; points hjshe* .eday than the closing
prices of Friday. Trailing was very ac-
1 five during the first fificcn minutes and i
• prices rallied a few points from th»
opening. After the cull, the ring erov<’
inclined to sell, resulting in prices drup- ‘
mng back, j>r<icL -ally unchar;; d from the •
first figures. The larger sp«,t nc uses’
, j were good Buyers.
Profit-taking by scattered longs and the I
ring crowc selling short resulted in the •
market declining further during tin late j
trading of the >’ ..rt session. Th.se who 1
covered early were among the best sell- ’
ers later. The unusual week-end short |
covering was not hi evidenc. . However,!
the market was supported remarkably
well by the large spot houses, but the big
bulls were absent, and prices after de-
• cifning about 7 points from the opening,
. but with continued •ggressiveness from
brokers representing spot interests a dew
points advance was noted.
The principal factor today was the fact
that John McFadden was very bullish
ami is now in the city. Traders were less
I urgent in making their deals and handled
them with caution, which was evidently
logically due because of rhe inactive mar
ket during the last half hour of trading.
At the close the market was steady, I
wiDi prices a net gain of 5 to 13 points
from the final odotations of Friday.

was a bearish feeling among the traders

cision in the Minnesota rate case, which j
was expecte.l to come front the supreme :

CHICAGO, Dee. 14. While May wheat
was ’ 4 u higher this morning the Decem
ber was a shade lower and July was
strung. As is general on Saturday, today
will be an evening up day for the smaller
traders in wheat who do not care to stand
either long or short wver Sunday, be
cause .f the uncertainty surrounding the
war situation in the Far First. Liverpool
was to lid higher with an improved
s)ot demand for Manitoba and Miller's
good buyers.
Argentine weather unsettled in parts
where ’ urvest is on.
Corn x-iis up fractionally on shorts cov
ering ai d smaller offerings. Llverpo« I
was un< I, ,ged tu lower. There were
possiblHtii' of a better demand for easn
corn, but ti ; s was more than offset by
freer country offerings.
< iats were unchanged.
Hogs at the yards were strong and pro
visions were firmer.
The situation in wheat was weak at this
(‘lose and resting spots lor the day
showed net losses *>f U to %c. Many of.
those who bought early were on the sell
ing side late and they were willing tu ac
cept losses rather than carry the wheat
over to Monday, when a bearish set of
routine statistics art* among the possi
bilities. The cash situation was a littlo
better with Kansas City reporting ten
boat loads for export via the gulf, and
thero were 25.000 bushels sold here, and.
a fair sized business was done at St.
L( >uis.
Corn and oats each closed with losses
