industrial conditions as affected by the bituminous coal strike show even more of a contrast than had been hitherto noted "In the former buying both at whole sale and retail is still eager only cheer ful reports emanate from most large centers as to early holiday buying and complaints as yet come mainly from those who have not been able to secure ade quate supplies of wanted goods "On thft other hand the industrial situa tion has retrograded rapidly the pinch of want of coal has caused many shut downs especially in East and Wsst cen tral states and zero weather has caused much suffering to prairie state commu nities whole fuel supplies have been re duced or disappeared "Especially acute supply conditions are reported at Chicago where hundreds of thousands of workers have been cut down

mar ket wag lower today but showed firmnens at the close owing to more favorable Views of the coal situation and of Mex ican affaire After selling off from 3440 cents to 3385 cents March closed at 3425 cents with the genera list closing firm at a net decline of 14 to 65 points Relatively easy cables and increused crop estimates seemed to be largely ac countable for the earlier selling The market opened easy at a decline4 of 25 to 50 points with January selling off to 3645 cents and May to 3238 cents right after the call when active months were about 40 to 60 points net lower There were rallies of several points from this level on Liverpool and Japanese buy ing while there was also domestic trade buying and covering but the market weakened again during the early after noon on reports of a diminishing spot de mand and easier spot basis January was relatively firm but later months made new lows with May selling at 3195 cnts or about 83 points not lower while July at one time showed a net loss of 98 pointe There was renewed covering and trade buying at this level and last prices were 35 to 50 points up from the lowest with Liverpool a good buyer in the late trading A prominent Southern authority esti mates ginning to Dec 1 at 8993000 bales and the tint crop at 11128000 hales the highest private estimate so far published This was a factor in Liverpool and was considered responsible for part of the early selling here The average of esti mates hv members of the New York Cot ton Exchange points to a crop of 10700 000 halos and members of the Little Rock Exchange

October 2850 2860 2800 2825 December 3860 3880 3850 3875 Bid Thomson McKinnon say of the cotton market: Considering the fact that a sur prisingly large estimate teas published on the crop the market acted remarkably well The fact that a decline was not more extensive is due to the lack of reali zation on the part of owners of cotton that a change is going to come and It Is going to be a change downward and not upward: a change In which cotton is merely an incident Deflation will soon be as common a word as cancellation was a year ago at this time World conditions are of a character to cause ail to hesitate and consider the future It Is no time to be committed in high priced commodi ties It may take a few weeks or a few months We may have further bullish efforts but the change seems to us to he inevitable and we therefore continue to soggest the advisability of being unusually cautious LIVERPOOL Dec 5 Cotton Ppot in moderate demand: prices lower rood mid dling 2737J fully middling
