Market Loses Heavily at Start on Eastern Showers—Cov ering Causes Reaction. NEW YORK. Sept. 5. —With the weath er map showing very favorable condi tions overnight, especially in the eastern belt, w’here rains prevailed and were certainly needed, the cotton market ’ opened with first prices 2 to 9 points be- I low the closing prices of Wednesday. ' After the call a precipitant realizing i movement by the uptown crowd and i some longs who took oportunity to reduce their holdings and through heavy dis of t ' lc staple October dropped from I. :;9 to 11.12, December receded from 11.10 > to 11.27, while January declined 14 points from the opening The buying was i moderate and scattered with very little i points from the opening. Through the aggressiveness of some | spot interest and commission houses the 1 market developed a steady tone and prices during the afternoon session ruled com paratively the same as the low level made I during the early trading. October stood at 11.12. December at 11.27 and January at 11. The princßial and predominant fac tor to the market today was the buying of spinners who bought quite freely at tunes. Sentiment continues on a more bearish character. A sudden covering wave prevailed over the market during the last hour of trad ing by the ring crowd and some brokers who usually represent spot interests and prices quickly developed an upward ten dency. regaining the early decline, and at the close the market was steady with prices a net decline of 2 to 7 points from the final quotations of Wednesday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S DAILFY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS. Sept. weather talk and fear of crop deterioration stim ulated support yesterday and probably caused the advance In Liverpool today, where futures gained as much as 7 points and spots are quoted 13 points higher: sales small, total 5,000 bales. The Eng lish market, however, lost most of the advance when the favorable change, over night in weather condijions became known. The map this morning shows cloudy weather, general rains and cooler temperatures. 2 to 10 degrees lower in the Atlantics. Cloudy in west Texas, cooler in Texas and Oklahoma: generallv fair and warm in the central states. Indi cations are for increasing cloudiness gen erally, probably rain in west Texas. Ok, I lahoma, north Arkansas arid the Allan- 1 tic states; also cooler over the entire 1 northern half of the belt. Further inter- ; esting statistics by Mr. Hester gives the : crop last season as 16,501,000. Nervous : fluctuating markets are generally expect- ; eii during the next few week®, as so much depends on storms and frosts.

Bag got & Co.: There was an effort on the part of bears to depress the market on and after the opening and selling was heavy. The Waldorf crowd and the bears sold for a turn. There was little or no support. Later Mitchell, Hubbard, Hicks and others became good buyers. This was said to be on unfavorable crop news from the eastern belt. Some of the buying was said to be for account of spinners. Sentiment is mixed, but more bears than bulls. In the absence of concentrated selling, market reacts easily. The uptown crowd. Weld and McFadden were heavy sellers on the opening. The rains last night in the eastern belt were certainly beneficial to the crop. The Journal of Commerce: ''Sentiment is more bullish." The Commercial says: "The market has evened up considerably.” Dallas wires: •'Texasr—San Antonio, southwest and the panhandle cloudy; pleasant scattered clouds east and south; balance clear and warm. Oklahoma — Generally fair ami cooler." Heavy selling by Springs, Castles, Weld and ring speculators caused the decline today. Weather was in their favor and market declined easily Buying was scattered, with no special support; Memphis said to be good seller. Following are 11 a m. bids: October 11.17, December 11.30, January 11.18, March 11.31, NEW ORLEANS. Sept. s.—Hayward & Ulark: The weather map shows very fa vorable deevlopments overnight. General rains and temperatures 2 to 10 degrees lower in Atlantic's: cooler also In Texas. Cloudy west, portion; fair central states; cooler In Oklahoma. The New Orleans Times-Democrat says: Yesterday's market advanced because there was too much company on the short side, and not because of any telling change in professional sentiment. There is no getting away from the fact that both the talent and the trade, in the main, are bearish at heart: that the bull talent, in the main, is bullish on the mar ket ultimately, but does not take the cur rent advance seriously. Thus only a very small number of traders are bull ish on the near future market, and these men appear to be doing more talking than trading. Under the circumstances, the current strength of the market means either that subtle influences, which are not apparent on tile surface of things, are getting in their work, or that the cleaning out process is under way. In any case, exporters purchased cotton in Texas at the lowest basis known in twenty-five years (10 points on October for Liverpool, good middling. September delivery, f. o. b. Galveston), and Savan nah sold Liverpool middling spots at 11c. as contrasted with 11.31 the closing price of October at New York. Estimated receipts Friday: 1912. 1911.

STRANGE ROBBERIES IN OFFICE SOLVED; BOY THIEF TRAPPED Mysterious robberies in the office of I the West Side loan Company, in the Peters building, were solved today, by the arrest of a daring burglar—a bur ,glar just thirteen years old and as black as th'? proverbial ace of spades. Cash in the loan company's till had been vanishing day after day, with never a clew to the robber, for doors, windows and drawers were found in tact. Detectives Chewning and Nor ris hid in the office last night and wait ed. They tighten'd their grips on their gun.' at tie- .sound of someone creep ing over the skylight about 11 o’clock. Tlie skylight window was cautiously opened, a ilguic dropped through, the detectives shouted "halt or we shoot, ’ or words to that effect- and as the lights were switched on a young black ragamuffin no higher than your shoul | der stood grinning sheepishly. | He'll be tried before the children's | 1 ■>ui l today. His n ime is Granlin' Thompson.
