Memphis .. 15.044 3.368 1,038 Sew Orleans, Oct. 1.—Trading today was principally under the Influence of conjecture about the effect of tomor row’s government publications. Inter, •its had to be arranged and this caused some fluctuation. The Journal of Commerce reports on Texas and Ar kansas were bullish, and this leads to the expectation of a bullish bureau condition figure being In predominance. Liverpool was about as dile and kept steady. Cables say: “Market feels Influence of India buying. India crop accounts unfavorable. Hhort Interest large." There was nothing particular today In weather map or weather rec ords. Indications point to cloudy and showery weather for the northwest and north central half of the belt. A New York statistician. Miss Burch, makes the crop condition 67.8, a decline of 7 points. With regard to the effect of to morrow's reports, opinion Is pretty well unanimous that, even If they should be bullish, people will be afraid to act on account of the supremacy gained by New York and Liverpool, and there will probably be considerable hesita tion until something Is heard about the doings of the big operators In the north. The local strike situation Is unchang ed. Interfering with spot busines sand diverting cotton as lohg as the strike lasts. Spot markets in other parts of the belt are benefltted by It through the export business going there. Sew York, Oct. 1.—Bartlett, Fraxler ft Carrington: The cotton market ruled active but somewhat lower around the opening, due to the refusal of Liverpool to follow our advance re garding the figures of the bureau re port tomorrow. Many speculators were reluctant to carry JJnes on either side of the market over the bureau. At tho Mime time It Is said that some big long lines outstanding which would be car ried over. Miss Burch's report. Issued at 11 a. m., gave the condition as 67.8, showing a decline of 7 1-2 points for the month. This report did not have much effect on the market either way. A tinner tone prevailed, but some sell ing occurred on the hard spots. The cotton market Is in a waiting position. The traders and operators will know the facts of the crop tomorrow, and It would be safer not to do anything until after the report on condition Is pub lished. Weather conditions continue fairly favorable with some lower tem peratures reported In parts of the belt. —J. 8. Bache & Co. Special to The Georgian (From Hayward, Vick & Clark.) New York, Oct. 1.—Bartlett, Fraxler & Carrington: Liverpool cables were due 11-2#1 points lower. Opened quiet but steady 3{j>4 points decline. At 12:16 p. m. was quiet but steady, net 2021-2 points decline. Spot cotton easier at 6 points decline; middling up land 6.67d; sales 7,000, American 5,900; speculation and export, 500; Imports 5,000; American none. SeveraL private reports on crop con ditfon will be Issued this morning. The market hinges on the probable date of killing frosts. It seems to be the opin ion that 1.000,000 bales will be added or deducted frmn the crop of 1907-08 ac cording to the early or late date of thii frost. Condition reports today will probably give some Idea as to the gov ernment figures tomorrow. We favor a waiting policy and would only sell on the extreme bulges. Liverpool cables: “Market feels the Influence of India buying. Crop ac counts In India unfavorable. Short In. terest large." Very small and narrow market; may liven up a bit when Giles* report comes out, but looks like o waiting on gov ernment, with most of the shorts pretty well covered up. Following are 11a. m. bids: October, 10.99; January, 11.21; March, 11.32. Ninety members average guess of government report 68; high, 71; low, 64. Mrs. Burch's estimate Is 67.8, a de cline of 7 1-2 points. New Orleans, Oct. 1.—Hayward, Vick & Clark: Weather map not complete. What there Is shows rains approaching the northwestern belt. Memphis, Tenn., records 46 degrees minimum. After today’s Journal of Commerce reports ori Texas and Arkansas and the territories, can not see how there will be much selling. Rather think bears will buy In some more and give us steady or higher markets. The Journal of Commerce reports on Texas and Arkansas are unfavorable. For Texas It says: Considerable de terioration during August; conditions altogether unsatisfactory. For Arkansas: Drought caused damage; condition lower than last year. For Oklahoma: Dry weather caused premature opening: condition not much lower than last year. For Indian territory: Premature opening; condition about same as last year. MISS GILES ISSUES REPORT. “Edited by Joseph B. Lively. MARKETS Mr. Lively's twenty-live years’ experience of ed iting markets In Atlanta and tbe South bat made him a recognised au thority In bis specialty. New York, Oct. 1.—Miss Giles, the cotton expert, today Issued her usual semi-monthly report on the cotton crop. It makes the condition of the plant 65.5, against 71 In the middle of September; 72.8 on Aygust 25, and 72.1 at this time last year. This deterioration of 7.3 during the month Is due, she says, to nil the Ills that beset cotton nt this season of the year. THE COFFEE MARKET. market tor today. Opening Jaaaaty . ^ February ..

The wenkness In St. Paul Is uted to short selling, and a sharp rally may take place In the stock at any time.

Town Topics: While the short cover ing movement will likely send the mar ket up a little higher this morning, w. believe .locks generally are a sale for turns on bulges. Canadian Pacific's rise, of course, only relleeted the ex tremity of bearish anxiety, and It Is not likely that a similar demonstration against the shorts Would he possible elsewhere in the list, though there Is In Reading, Copper, Steel and some other stocks a pretty large shortage out standing. The stronger bears, however, continue to sell the market on the mi ne., as the- support offered by the banking Interests Is only such as to prevent panicky conditions.

Consequently as lonns with Copper ns collateral mature we look for lower prices In that market, which will be reflected In stocks.

N«w Orleans, oci. 1.—Tlme»-Demo- crat: “There Is nu denying the fact that the cotton trade Is deeply con cerned over the New Orleans labor elt- uatlon, nor that a light to a finish Is necessary. If the port of New Orleans le to be put on a parity with other gulf ports In the matter of export charges on cotton, will cost the cotton mar- chant, exporter and ship owner some money before the unfettered channels of trade ehall have been re-opened on a legitimate bails. Thus the local talent le now devoting more attention to the preparations being made for a finish light against excessive labor demands than to the under-lying causas of cot ton market strength In the absence of support. But the trade can no longer Ignore the serious shortness of the Texas yield, and the dally developments tending to confirm the fear that th# re mainder of the belt will not do so well as the optimist would have the con sumer and the speculator believe. From some sections now come the report that the crop la all made, though not yet all picked. From others, that an early or even a normal frost date will play havoc with expectation!. Excessive rainfall over the eastern belt |e worry ing the shorts more than a little. In Texas financial conditions are said to New York.

Oct. t.—The principal In fluence In the market this morning was the president's speech ul Keokuk and the uncertainty regarding conflicting views In the financial world as to Its significance. While the conclusion was drawn at yesterday * olase - that the market was oversold, It waa also recog nized that there had been enough short corerinv to render the speculative posi tion less atrong than It waa. Canadian Pacific, which had furnished the sensn. tlort yesterday, onened 4 points down this morning, and, while it sold back moipentarily to yesterday's closing, It did not hold. Speculators on the short side counted on the president’s remirks brine sufficiently radical to unsettle the trading, and today the support which otherwise would be expected at declln- 1 Ing figures. St. Paul and the Bteol le-' sues were the object nf special pressure and the ease with which bpth stocks yielded hnd a most depressing effect upon the rest of the market Xrw York, Hit. 1.—The stock market miened nt almost general advances.
