However, this demonstration was arrested before the end of the first hour by an outbreak of selling in C. & 0., Nickel Plate, Atchison and other seasoned rails.' Constructive forces have been waiting patiently for larger participation in the trading activity on the part of the carrier group. It was figured that the industrials could not engage in a substantial advance unless the rails also swung into line and the fact that the leaders of this class turned reactionary in the face of aggressive demonstration in pivotal industrials, exercised a chilling effect on bullish enthusiasm. ‘As a consequence prices sold off quite generally in the last hour and the market was irregular at the close.

By United Press CHICAGO, Nov. 27.—With twenty adjazent buildings occupied with exhibits in adition to a mammoth amphitheater, the International Livestock Exposition opened here today to continue until Dec. 4.*' Members of the animal aristocracy which have been designated as “champions" throughout the world, were groomed today awaiting the judges. Anxious owners, including millionaire breeders, farmers stockmen, and professional exhibitors, await the result of the competition in each class. Most interest centers about selection of the grand champion steer to be chosen by Senor George GordonDavis of Buenos Aires. It is customary to designate an unbiased judge from a foreign country. lowa State College, exhibiting an Aberdeen Angus, won the honor last year and first honors went to the Ken-Caryl ranch of Littleton, Cal., the year before. The animals which went on exhibition today have been shipped to Chicago from all parts of the United States and Canada. There are fifty-four draft horses exhibited by a Saskatchewan breeder: maritime swine breeders of New Brunswick are showing a carload of Yorkshire hogs; the University of Alberta has an outstanding exhibit of steers; entries from California and the far Southwest have been arriving in town for a week. The non-collegiate livestock judging contest was won by the Wyoming team with a total point score of 1,617. Second place was won by Oglahoma with 1,576 points. Illinois

Nov. 27.—Cotton pricer. , throughout the week have b<*eii well sustained, but the market has lacked the kind of support that was so pronounct and when contracts were 20 or 30 points cheaper. rrom a discount under January. December has suddciUy advanced to a premium. and there are those who think that other months will follow as they mature, but w f e do not concur in this opinion, as. sooner or later, a large stock of cotton would be attracted to New York warehouses and this would defeat such a movement There is abundant merit in cotton at those prices, and wp think it quite likely that the investor will ultimately s e a profit iu his cotton, but a small decline appears likely for the present, due to the technical advantage the bears have in the somewhat overbought condition of the market. Cotton may be more freely - offered for a week or two. as producers' supply themselves with Christmas funds. NEW ORLEANS „ High. Low. Close.

VOLUME ADJUSTS VALUE OF HOGS Producers Said to Overshoot Demand. Bn Times Special WASHINGTIN, Nov. 27 Financial returns to hog producers depend to a considerable extent upon how well they adjust the volume of their production to the demand for the product, declares the Department of Agriculture as a result of a study of the factors that affect hog prices. The dominant influences in the hog market, says the department, are the supply of hogs on the market and expected to arrive on the market within the next few months, the quantity of hog products in storage, the general price level, general business conditions, and the prices of alternative products. The so-called “hog-price cycle” was found to be due to the tendency of hog producers to overshoot the mark in increasing production when the relation of hog prices to corn prices was favorable, and to reduce too much when it was unfavorable. Coupling the corn hog ratio, indicating what changes were likely to occur In breeding, with other factors indicating changes in the weight of hogs and the demands of the consumers, the department believes that very good forecasts of hog prices ec|uld have been made for the pre-war period. Since the war, however, conditions have beenso unstable that the purely mathematical formula has not givfen such satisfactory results.

MART MISLEADING ON INCREASES OF FEW INDUSTRIALS Baldwin Continues to Gain — Marine Preferred Buoyant. By E. Walter Muckier NEW YORK. Nov. 27.—Pronounced strength in a few selected industrial stocks Friday gave the entiie market a somewhat misleading appearance of strength. Baldwin, Steel common. Mercantile Marine preferred, Union Bag and Paper and a few other issues were buoyant. Regardless of the reasons back of the sharp advance in Baldwin there can be no denying that the buying had been very good. The movement is shrouded in mystery so far as the bases go, but on the surface the movement seemingly represents accumulation rather than forced short covering. Marine preferred rose more than five points in a sheer movement which did much to bolster belief in the Government report that the company had sold the White Star Line, its biggest single asset, to the Royal Mail Steam Packet. The report lacked confirmation in banking quarters closest to the company, while officials of Marine also refused to discuss the statement. However, the manner in which the report appeared gained for it considerable credence. Marine Bonds Rise Incidentally Marine bonds rose some points during the day, while the common stock has only fractionally higher. This all works in with the idea of the sale as the bondholders and preferred stockholders would reap the immediate benefit. This reported sale of the United Star Line is rather an old story in Wall Street. Actually accomplished during the war, the sale was called off for political reasons. Earlier this year the sale was considered ns having been virtually crmplcted with the Furness Withy interests. At that time Messrs. J. P. Morgan and Chsrlei Steele, a Morgan partner, resigned from the Marine hoard because the other end of the deal was being negotiated by the London associates of J. P. Morgan & Cos., and the bankers did not care to be sitting on both sides of the table. Since that time, long after the deal was officially called off, Morgan and Steele were reelected to the Marine board.. About Ford Rumors Evidence that Ford's shadow still lies over the motor industry was afforded again today when the report of the coming of six and eightcylinder Ford cars was revived. One of the tickers which furnishes Wall Street with its information minute by minute, brought out a story that the six was coming at the beginning of the year with the eight to come in mid year. The News Service declared that Ford dealers had already been approached on the matter. The report was officially denied by the New York representative of the Ford company, however. The circulation of the report gave Wal! Street something else to think about. The minor mbtors are not doing so well, if the stock market appi - aisal of motor securities is any guide. Apparently it is hard enough to meet the General Motors competition in the general field without having the Ford organization enter tlie list. Six and eight-cylinder Ford ears would mean that the Detroit Industrial leader would run the gamut from the cheapest fours to the extra high-class and high-priced field with his Lincoln. *
