THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS FRIDAY. AUGUST 16. 1912. TODAY'S MARKETS 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. NEW YORK.

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. NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. 11:00 Prev. I Open; High I Low 'A.M. I Close. Arnal. Copper 84% 84% 84% 84% 84% A. S.

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.

Fair elsewhere; no rain of any consequence except in mountains of East Tennessee Prospects greatly improved, the threatening disturbance moved west ward and chances are for continued good weather except unsettled in west Texas The New Orleans Times-Democrat's summary: With the elimination of sell ing pressure by liquidating longs, the cot ton market has turned its attention to 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.

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.
