: The cotton market was a slow and irregular affair Tuesday,
with trading considerably less than for several days. On the whole
the market was steady, although realizing sales early in the day
were fairly large, but a good demand was in evidence the entire
session. Traders were inclined to await further war news from
abroad. At least this is the way the New Orleans market viewed it.
Opening 5 off to 5 higher the market in New York eased off
to 28 points from Monday’s close on profit-taking, selling by a
prominent man who often represents spot firms, and offerings from
the South. This selling was based on advices, easier basis and
more offerings of the actual. Around midday reports from the
belt spoke of firm spots with practically no offerings. This braced
the market and values quickly rebounded on renewed active buy
ing, with active options rising about 2 points over Tuesday’s fin
ish, January rallying from an early low of 29.28 to 29.70, while
March rose from 28.82 to 29.27. December advanced from 30.05
to 30.40.
The irregularity of futures had sympathetie effect on the local
market, the Atlanta Commercial Exchange quoting the staple 5
points lower to 30.20 cents, while the Atlanta Warehouse Company
marked spots 1-8 of a eent down to 30 1-4. No sales were reported.
Tuesday’s arrival of cotton totaled 4,o4l—largest in several
days-—while shipments totaled 1,912. The day’s receipts swelled
local stocks in warehouses up to 43,679 bales.

The Union Pacific Railroad Tuesday reported an increase in
October operating revenue of $1,439,004 and a decrease in net in
come of $388.755. From January 1, operating revenues show an
inerease of $12,325 236, while net exhibits a decrease of $1,644.390.

The Central Leather Company Tuesday declared the usnal
quarterly dividend of 1 3-4 per cent on the preferred stock.

J. F. CLARK’'S COTTON LETTER.
NEV/ ORLEANS, Nov. 27.—The stim- |
lating war news from New York yes
terday afternoon on which the last spurt
in the markel was based, was not con
firmed overnight, which gave rise to the
view that the exercise of bullish con
trol wasg being strained ta some extent;
feeling, therefora. this morning was
rather in favor of some reaction, more so
as the high tcnsion over first notice day
<cevelopments has relaxed and Russian
news was very unfavorable. With the
price of near positions so close to spot
prices bulls have lost the advantage of
the discounts,”and with the general price
level so near the set aspiration of 30
cents, there is more inducement to real
ize or to secure the price by hedging.
Of course the pivotal condition for bull
ish control, which is the relative isola
tion of New York from supply in the
South by traffic conditions, "is not
changed and that market will remain
subject to easy control by the bull
forces, With the two markets bound
up tightly by straddle operations, our
market is affected by the tech
nical situation in Northern market, but
the difference in conditions has reached
4 telling maximum at this price level.
Loocal spot situation is unchanged,
quotations fully maintalned; no press
ure to sell; gsteady demand.
The contract market, after declining
nearly 30 points, steaéied on reaction
buying, but the buying is rather slow
and unless there is political news of a
stimulating character, the chances are
in favor of a further reaction.
NEW YORK CURB MARKET.
The curb market opened firm and
closed heavy.

New Orleans and Mitchell were the
principa] seliers at the opening.
8.
The New Orleans market wired that it
was walting for developments in New
York and that the feeling there is that
the market s entitled to a reaction, but
if New York is forceq up, the market
will follow on straddle operations.
s « o
_The weather map shows fair in Geor-
Bia and Alabama; part cloudy over rest
of the belt; slight precipitation in north
west Texas and west Arkansas. Indica
‘tions are for generally unsettled, rainy
weather and colder in the northern por
tion of the belt.
‘ . L .
E. F. Hutton & Co. say: “The goods
trade market continues sieady, and this,
combined with the strength of the near
months and the flrmneéss of the actual
are the dominating factors in the mar
ket. The advance has been very rapid
and while some reaction is due, prices
give all indications of working to a
much higher level,”
N A »
The Times-Picayune says: “The ad
vance to new high records in Monday
market was due mainly to the urgent
trade demand not only for the actual,
but alse contracts as cover against the
extensive needg of spinners to meet for
ward commitments, The crop estimates
issued yesterday have tended to some
what shake confidence in extreme low
crop views, but the trade still seems
convinced that the Government esti
mate due December 11 will be bullish.
Following is the latest dry goods market
and mill review showing a very strong
situation.
“A very broad and active demand for
cotton 3oods reached unusual propor
tions even for war times in the last few
days. Contracting Into the middle of
next year, buyers included some of the
largest jobbers, nearly all the large bag
manufacturers, most of the converters
and grlntors and the Government and
Red Cross operators.
“Mills are sold out for months.”
HUTTON & CO'S. STOCK LETTER.
NEW YORK, Nov. 27.—1 t looks as
though the selling of railroads is due
to the uncertainty_as to what Govern
ment control for the present means.
Atchison comes in with another very
bad statement. The Western lines
don't seem to get the same Brasp on
their operating expenses as the East
ern. Probably the heavy liquidation in
St. Paul preferred foreshadows a big net
decrease. News is generally favorable,
We must not look for any blg advance
in general list, but specialties, which
are cheap, will worke higher.

Four Millions Cash Surplus Shown

in Last Yearly Statement.
Morgans Hopeful.
By BOERSIANER.
CHICAGO, Nov. 27.—Stocks advanced
Monday, substantially in the industry
group, uneveniy in the rails.
Deceived by lack of Monday morning
orders, tradars attacked the market
shortly after the opening. They found
an unylelding condition. Stocks were
not for sale. From then on to midday
business was normal, save in General
Electrie, American Telegraph and Pull
man, where an outbreak of light ligui
dation provoked marked quotation con
cessions. When habitual speculators bid
for outstanding stocks prices responded
sensitively. Very little buying—small
causes—produced rapid rises or impor.
tant results.
The fallure of railway shares to fol
low the Industrials was due to prime
causes so familiar as to forefend reitep
ation. These were reconfirmed by the
October revenue report of the Santa
Fe, which showed a decrease of $855,-
538 In operating income, though the
Bross increased fi,m.m. This road up
to September had continued exceptional
in_making favorahle statements.
Pullman descended to 12381 before it
recovered 11 of the 314 points lost uince
the close of last week.
It is a reasonable assumption that the
short selling here has been limited and
that, correspondingly, liquidation ex
plains the (;’ecllne of the last four
months—the explanation of the depre
ciation In all hlqh-grnde certificates. In
the case of Pullman, the current talk
of curtailed travel is responsible for the
latest grelaure.
ullman Income Enhanced.
So far it has been talk and it Is quite
possible that the future will be as de
void of fact as the past. The facts
are that, des‘)lte taxes and the higher
cost of operation, the company’s net in
come since the end of the fiscal year
has been enhanced considerably; in
other terms, the addition to the $4,000,-
000 cash surplus shown in the last yvear
ly statement ig fortifying the organiza
tion increasingly,
Pullman s another of many instances
of liquidation incited by general bear
ish sentiment wholly unwarranted by
intrinsic condition. Recelpts are run
ning $500,000 to SBOO,OOO monthly in ex
cess of the corresponding perfod in 1916,
and of these earnings a very fair pro
portion iy clear gain after allowing for
the Government's bit.
There Is no diminution In travel. Cal-
East, especially to Washington, was
never so heavy. No surplus cars are
In transit. Puliman coaches are filled
to capacity. Upper berths are coveted
—Wwhere formerly they were shunned.
The manufacturing part of the com
pany Is eminently satisractori& ‘While
the building of freight cars is 50 per
ceat of full capacity, this Is due to want
of basic material and not to lack of or
ders. The books at present record
enough commands for passenger cars to
keep the plant busy to the turn of the
first half of next year. The long pend-
Ing negotiations with the Russian Gov
ernment for cars ended negatively.

0.
_ The Morgan firm is far from being in
‘despair of commercial and financlal con
ditions. It believes business will be
‘moderately good and that a falr re
turn will be had from the moderately
good business; falr profits will he the
result of the iairl{ large turn-over. That
standard companies can find what mon.

'which could have been subscribed four

Much gossip is in the air—it is lteral-
Iy airy gossip--about putting up to Cofi
gress the matter of corporation maturi
ties. If this be done, Congress will
doubtless udvise corporation managers
to go into the money market and pay
the price of money.
Money can now be had in abundanoce
—at a price. Probably it wlll be avall
able throughout the war—at a price.
The General Kleetric Company pald a
trifle more than 6 per cent for its last
accommodation. Other companjes will
be similarly accommodated if they care
to pay the rate.

37 1-2 cents for the dressed and 30
to 83 cents for the live,” said J. T.
Willlams, president of the company.
Camp Gordon already has received

'than the camp first was reported: to
'have asked bids on.”
