NEW ORLEANS, April . 14. So far no success has been met within the efforts to avert the general strike in the British Isles set for 10 o'clock Friday night. Under the circumstances the market remains in an unsettled and depressed condition. The situation in England is considered grave and while the outlook appears pessimistic there Is the possibility of the threaten ed general strike being averted at the last hour. The immediate future of the market, therefore will likely depend mainly upon whether the walkout is averted or becomes a reality. If the strike takes place values are apt to exrl ence a further decline, perhaps a sharp advance if strike is averted. Returns to the census bureau com pared with last season show that 438, 000 tales of lint cotton were consumed in the United States during March versus 576,000 for 8 months against 3,167,000 against 4,231.000; that Ameri can mill stocks at close of March were 1.338,000 versus 1,864,000! in public storage and mills 6,573,000 versus 5. 094.000, while active spindles were 32, 105.000 compared with 34,698,000. Consumption returns for March'were a little less than estimated neverthe less were 42,000 larger than for Feb ruary of this year, indicating consump tion in America to 'be Increasing. While stocks in public storage are 1,995,000 larger than one year ago, mill stocks are 516,000 smaller than last year. Washington advises the approval of an application for a loan of $2,000,000 to southern banking interests for ex portation of 30,000 bales of cotton by the war finance corporation. London reports Manchester trade im proving and that the Indian boycott is breaking down. New York announces a good demand for cotton goods from the far east claiming 10,000 bales sold this week.
