i IN THE NJ. MARKET
! Offerings of Cotton Increase
at Advance—Exports
, Disappointing
1 ——
? New Orleans. November 3.—The higher
. prices in the Liverpool market attending
the reopening of future trading under re
■ strictions there caused a sympathetic rise
in prices in the local cotton market to
day. Spots w ere marked up %c to 7 6-16c
^ for middling, and January contracts rose
t to 7.65c, a new high level for the liquida
te tion trading. Offerings increased at the
> advance, however, and around the clos
r ing the price stood at 7.66c bid.
Exports for the week were disappoint
t ing, amounting to only 127,581 bales,
: against 162,479 last week, and this, to
gether with an increased movement intc
sight, probably stimulated offerings ol
* contracts.

New York, November 6.—With ttv
Liverpool market reopened today for re
stricted trading: in May-June deliveries
there was a larger attendance of mem
hers on the floor of the local exchangi
and for the first time since hret July
the Liverpool cables were posted on th<
regular board.
The increasing interest of the trade alsi
was reflected in reports of a more activ<
business on the local curb and Decembe
contracts traded rather freely at 7.60
later advancing to 7.62 with sellers uskin?
7.65. May-June in Liverpool fluctuated be
i ween 4.45d and 4.36d. closing at the latte
figure, which represented an advance o
nine English points from the minimun
price fixed by the liquidation committee
and as basis for international liquidation
The local conference committee re
ported rapid progress in the work of se
curing signatures to the agreements nec
essary to a consummation of the corpora
tion-syndicate plan for taking over th
old interest here, and it was rumorei
late in the day that it had also raise
its minimum price for liquidating strati
dies to 7:75c for December.
Reports from the south indicated con
tinned steadiness in the interior spot mar
kets, and local brokers reported that of
l’erings were still light, although it is be
lieved there has been slackening of de
mand as a result of increasing freigh
rates and higher war risks to North se;
ports. Port receipts today, 55,273 bales

i Chicago, November 6.—Notwithstanding
that a sharp advance in ocean rates
checked demands from domestic support
• ers, wheat today showed considerable
i strength. There was a firm close at He
to %@%c net advance. Other leading
i staples, too, all finished higher compared
with last night. Corn, %@%c to %c; oats,
t %@%c and provisions 25@66c.
s How much harm had been done to
• w'heat in Argentina could only be in
ferred, but some experts are of the opin
; ion that it was considerable.
Continued heavy receipts at primary
• points in the United States led to a reac
; tion in prices, but the effect failed to
i .ast.
, Increased export demand for corn put
a lever under that cereal. Sales here for
. transatlantic countries totalled 600,00®
. bushels.
Oats were influenced by advices of
North Dakota supplies going to Canada
• and by estimates of 15 to 20 per cent im
l pairment to the crop in southwest Argen
\ tina.
Covering by shorts in provisions was on
large scale and prices jumped. Multiplv
. ing quarantine restrictions was an influ
. enee. Pork showed the biggest advance,
. 67%c.
