was shown in the stock market at the

HEAVY REALIZING
LOWERS COTTON
Weak Cables and Better
Weather Cause Selling and
Prices Lose Heavily.
NEW YORK, Sept. 16.—Weakness in
Liverpool cables resulted in a heavy real
izing movement by commission houses
who bought heavily Saturday in anticipa
tion that the gulf storm would sweep in
land with consequent damage to the crop.
T his caused the cotton market this morn
ing to open, with the firs*t prices
ranging from 6 to 13 points lower than
the closing prices of Saturday The
weather map shows very favorable condi
tions over Sunday. During the first fif
teen minutes of trading the market was
rather quiet and prices inclined to sag
ar< M Un ‘2 opening Shortly after the
call the market developed a steady tone,
and some irregularity was shown in
prices. The buying was very moderate
and scattered, while the selling was of g
general character.
The buying is said to have come mostly
from Liverpool and some commission
houses. Also, the W’aldorf crowd was
aggressive at times. The trading, how
ever. has not been large and the market
was very narrow. The Commercial-Appeal
was out with a very bullish condition re
port. while the New Orleans Times-Dem
ocrat was not so bullish and prices sagged
around the opening The market re
sponded easily to the little buying, but
onerings were in excess of the demand,
checking all rallies, and during the after
noon session prices aggregated 6 to 16
points decline from the opening
Renewed selling during the last half
trading by spot interests and
the ring crowd caused a further down
ward movement in prices, and at the
close the market was steady, with prices
a net decline of 23 to 26 points from the
final quotations of Saturday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 16.—The gulf
storm which caused so much excitement
last week, but which we announced all
along would be harmless for the belt, has
vanished without any damage to the crop,
and Washington now says in its weekly
forecast that there are at present no
signs of any disturbance in the West
Indies.
Weather over Sunday was favorable
with lower temperatures; some good
rains in central states; scattered showers
elsewhere. Indications are for rainy and
cooler weather in western and north cen
tral states; partly cloudy and scattered
showers elsewhere.
Liverpool was poorer than due. by about
4 points; spot prices 8 points lower; sales
9,000 bales, of which only 6.000 were
American. Official government records
show good and pretty general rainfall
over Sunday in Arkansas, northern half
of Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee.
The market lost about 10 points in early
trading, owing to poor Liverpool, good
weather and Tlmes-Democrat report, but
held very steady at decline. Fear of fur
ther professional support in New York
caused usual scarcity of sellers.
Tomorrow’s weekly report should be fa
vorable owing to the general rains over
the belt and lower temperatures.

rainy and cooler wrather in Texas, Okla

The New Orleans Times-Democrat’s

the consensus of opinion:
"First—The accounts are exceedingly
conflicting; but there seems to have been
a moderate deterioration, taking the bell
as a whole.
"Second—There is much complaint o|
insects from certain sections, but it in
too soon to estimate the damage
"Third—Farmers seem disposed to sell
at current prices at least enough to pay
their debts.
"Fourth—The supply of labor for pick
ing is adequate as a rule, but special
causes have created a scarcity in particu
lar districts
