COTTON.
NEW YORK. Aug. 16.—1 n keeping with
weak cables the cotton market opened
easier today, first prices being 7 to 14
points lower. However, the market was
so well suported that rallies of 6 to 9
points quickly followed. Part of this was
due to the Giles' report of 76.7 against
79.9 for the present crop which was con
strued as bullish.
Futures in Liverpool were easy. Spot
there was quiet.

STOCKS.
By CHARLES W. STRONG.
NEW YORK. Aug. 16. —After having
touched 283. the highest mark in its his
tory. Canadian Pacific was off 1 % at the
opening of the stock market today. The
general tone was irregular with some is
sues showing good gains and others under
pressure. Profit-taking in London was
held responsible for the increase in Ca
nadian Pacific here. This stock opened
in New York at 280% after closing last
night at 281%. Later it rallied to 280%.
The following other gains were scored
at the outset: Amalgamated Copper %,
Smelting %, Atchison %, Lehigh Valley
%. Missouri Pacific %, Southern Railway
%. Among the losses were United States
Steel %, Reading 1, Union Pacific % afid
Southern Pacific Erie common was
unchanged. Much of the pressure here
was held to be due to profit-taking. The
curb was quiet.
Americans in London after rallying
turned heavy.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 15.—Weather de
velopments over night were more favor
able. The conditions for rains diminished
and prospects are for generally fair
weather conditions with exception of
western Texas, northwest Alabama and
northern Arkansas. where unsettled
weather is likely. The map shows no rain
of consequence over night and only light
showers in the central states.
Liverpool futures conformed to the ad
vance in New York, but spot prices are
only 8 points higher; sales low, small. Ca
bles say market is governed by New York
operations.
Early New York wires here this morn
ing predicUkl further professional support.
There was In consequence a scarcity of
sellers and the market advanced in the
early trading on 'little buying to 11.81
for October.
However, when the government forecast
promised fair weather east of the Missis
sippi rlvfer the market lost 9 points. There
was. also a rumor that returns to the Na
tional Gihners'for the half month indi
cated a condition of 77.5 against 77.6 on
July 25.
New' York wired during the day that
spot interests were against the market
and that the mill demand had stopped on
the advance
Our market continued to fluctuate
sharply and showed nervous unrest. It
seems for the moment that there is still
a little too much short interest for the
size of the new crop movement and the
chance for a temporary professional dash
on this short Interest Is being satisfied.
The strong support in New York by cer
tain operators is explained on the ground
of such an intention. If the weather
continues good the new crop movement
outside of Texas will son put a stop to
all manipulation and bring the markets
down to spot facts.

the adjustment of parities in which un
dertaking the relative strength of early
receipts is playing a leading part. With
the ending of August and with the be
ginning of a full movement a little later,
talent and trade will have to consider the
prospective yield in its relation to re
spective requirement as a concrete price
factor, and to that end will dig deep under
the surface of things cropwise and trade
wise. Meanwhile, technical condition*
growing oul of the speculative line-up
sn,l speculation resulting from the late
ness of the movement, and the magnitude
of the August requirement will figure to
a greater extent in price making
There are some students of the market
who believe thej’ see unmistakable signs
of a period of less active trade, particu
larly in Europe. In this connection, how
ever. some of the largest cotton houses
report they can discover nothing that
leads them to expect less than a fourteen
mlllion-bale requirement In 1912-13.

Passage of Steel and Wool
Bills Has No Bear Effect on
Stock Market.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YollK. Aug. 15. Canadian Pacific
took the leadership of the stock marks *
at the opening today, having a bull move
ment in this stock in London on reports
of expected new rights for the system.
Tills issue opened here at 281 after hav
ing closed last night at 280%.
The tone at the outset was firm, the
market showing no bear effect from the
passage of the steel and wool bills by
the house over President Taft’s veto. An
other cause that Wall Street held partly
responsible for the good tone was the pub
lication of bumper crop reports with the
resulting conclusion that railroads wouhl
need further equipment to handle the
grain traffic. Steel common opened un
changed, but quickly moved up ’q- Steel
common opened unchanged, hut quickly
moved up %. Steel preferred also rose
%. Among the other gains were Amalga
mated Copper %, Erie common %. Balti
more and <). %. Atchison Vi, Lehigh Val
ley %, Missouri Pacific % and Southern
Railway %.
The curb was strong Americans In
London showed strength with the Dries in
best demand. Canadian Pacific rose on
reports of the acquisition of highly bene
ficial privileges.
Two reasons wore advanced for strenfth
of Dries in London. One was that the
first preferred is to be put upon a 4 per
cent dividend basis, and the other that in
terests allied with the Canadian Pacific
are buying the stock
Strength displayed in the market dur
ing the forenoon due to outside buying.
'The copper stocks, with Steel common
and Reading, were in brisk demand, while
Canadian Pacific advanced %c.
After midday selling pressure appeared
in the market and the tone became heavy.
In the mid-afternoon there was a num
ber of recessions. Then the late trading
actual pressure especially in Reading ap
peared. Reading declined to 171%, a loss
of 1 from last night’s closing, while
losses of around a point were scored in
Louisville and Nashville. Great Northern
Ore f Northern Pacific and St. Paul.
Tne stock market closed heavy; govern
ments unchanged; other bonds irregular.
