COTTON SEED OIL MARKET.
nllnwinr .r. rt. on-nin. and 'cloaln*
ott°n sceil oil futres In Now
New lork, Oct. 9.—The Sun says: "Clear
and warmer weather In most sections hod a
depressing effect on the market, particularly
ns Liverpool prices were disappointing, the
Shot markets were notlconbly weaker, ami
the receipts were considerably larger.
The selling came from nil quarter* In this
country, and nlso from Europe, though Liv
erpool and the Mouth also bought at times.
In the main there was n desire to liquidate.
iyie buying was largely to cover shorts,
yet it 1* quite ns true thnt not n few
nrofesstonsls seemed to be disposed to take
aojd for a rise on any good ureak. They
renson that while the damage to the cron
its probably as usual been exaggerated,
t Is great enough to make recent big
crop estimates seem far fetched. The con
sensus of opinion, however, rather favors
the Idea thnt the damage nnd the advance
had been overdone, thnt the floating short
Interest has been eliminated, and thnt a
further decline Is not Improbable unless
something striking happens to again seuu
prices upward."—Olbert 6c Clay.
New Orleans, Oct. 9.—The Times Demo
crat says: "With tho farmer holding the
key to the situation, the frost date an es
sential equation, nnd the Galveston-New
Orleans October requirement aggregating
some 650,000 hales, ns against 470,000 bales
Inst year, the conservative element among
the talent preferred to let the other fel
low have hts way. Consequently, the rain
less weather map made many men forget
the quite recent nnd very »erere lesson*
In caution. The weather man has had
some freakish elements to deal with ever
since the seed of the current crop was
planted In the ground, nnd frost has already
approached the heart of the belt. That the
frost date Is now of Immense Importance
to the cotton trade, no thlnklug inau will
deny for a moment. Meanwhile, long
hedges are not Iwdnff worked out ns rapidly
ns n free movement would have permitted,
actual cotton men are l»eoomlng more con
cerned over probable grade difficulties, and
the speculator generally shonld hesitate to
again shoot In the dark. Thus restricted,
a narrower market may, with some logic,
be nntldpafed. •though the arbitrage can
hardly be expected to develop along peace
ful lines."—Ware & Lelaml.

STOCKS REVIEWED
BY NEW YOR KSUN
New York, Oct. 9.—The Bun says: ’’Save
In one or two instances, there were no
pronounced features of luterest In yester
day’s market, nnd It was throughout a
dull and professional nffalr. The dullness
was, however, of the sort In which the
element of strength rather than weakness
was an accompanying factor. Generally
speaking, speculative stocks mlvaiued the
mnrket early In the day. and speculative
sales pushed prices downward Inter, the
decline, however, only wiping out a por
tion of the gains previously made. There
was not a very great deal of news l»ear-
lug upon the market. Aside from the eon
tinned upward march In the price or copper
a distinctly easier tendency lu monev rates
was. perhaps, the chief Influence affecting
values. The highest price touched for call
money yesterday was 4% per cent, nnd the
majority of the loans made were nt 4 per
cent, while very abundant offerings of time
money nt 6 per cent for nil periods Indicated
rather pointedly thnt a lower rather than
n higher rate might be seen lu tho near
future. The current relaxation lu monev
had developed logical strength in foreign
exchange.”—Glbert A Clny.

New York, Oct. 9.—The movement of
price, on the etoclc exchange this
morning preaented the name curious ir
regularity that had diatlngulahed the
prevloue days. Again there was an
entire abaence of any hurry to sell, but
again at the name time the great ma
jority of the active stocka were freely
aupplled whenever bids for them were
railed. Only In oAe or two direction,
did operators for the advance make
any headway. American Smelters con
tinued to be pushed ahead on the large
transactions with a story of a coming
stock dividend providing the Incentive.
The National Lead shares were sympa
thetically strong, and there was some
fairly active buying for.a while In Lo
comotive, Car Foundry and other so-
called equipment stocks. Among the
railroad shares the moat effective buy
ing converged upon Pennsylvania and
New York Central, the former being
Influenced by the report that the divi
dend would be raised from 8 to 7 per
cent. Elsewhere the fluctuations were
more uneven, and by midday slight
gains and losses were about evenly In
termingled throughout the list.
The etoek market was generally
strong all through the first hour. Penn
sylvania was a prominent feature, ad
vancing 1 7-8 on statements of an ad
vance In the dividend rate. There was
aggressive buying by Inside Interests
again In American Hmeltlng, and the
stock advanced 1 0-8. Pressed Steel.
American Car Foundry, Colorado Fuel
and Sloss-Sheffleld were among the
strong points. Canadian Pacific ad
vanced 1 3-8, American Locomotive.
7-8, and Union Pacific, 3-4.
