ing of the stock market today, declin
ing from % to 1% on the first few trans
actions. After a few minutes' trading,
however, the demand ceased and prices
receded.
Among the initial gains were United
States Steel common %. Amalgamated
Copper %, American Smelting %, Erie
common %, Erie preferred %. Baltimore
and Ohio %, Reading %, Lehigh Valley %,
Union Pacific %, Southern Pacific % and

Labor troubles in the copper field
around Bingham, Utah, caused some
weakness in that group. Utah Copper’de

Westinghcuse was a strong specialty,

The curb market was steady.
Americans in London were slow on

GRAIN.
CHICAGO, Sept. 19.—The entire grain
list was lower this morning, wheat los
ing %c to %c, corn %c to %c and oats
about %c. There was a lack of specula
tion in wheal, corn and oats, and those
who bbuglit yesterday were inclined to
do some selling this morning. The bulls
in corn were disappointed at he ab
sence of frost. The advices from Liver
pool showed the wheat and corn markets
higher there because of smaller Argentine
shipments and the fact that the wheat
in France is of rather poor quality.
Provisions were higher with hogs.

♦ YORK. Sept. 18.—On buying due

today 8 to 12 points above the closing

states north of Texas was also some
thing of a bull argument. During the
first few minutes of trading selling be

declining 2 to 8 points from the early
range. After the call the market de
veloped a better tone, regaining most of
! the decline, with prices about 9 points
over the previous close. Later during
tne morning session, spot interests be
came aggressive, with prices advancing
further, aggregating 16 to 20 points bet
ter than last night’s close.
Sonte Wail street houses who are very

during the early trading, but their offer

from Texas and Oklahoma have been in

ness among the bears. However, a ma

interests still express a bearish feeling

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Sept 18.—Liverpool
came in surprisingly steady this morning,
with futures about 5 points better than
due: spots, 4 points higher; sales 8,000
bales.
This resistance to the decline is ex
plained by the frequent manifestation
of a hull pool in New York and the fact
that arrivals of new cotton In Liverpool
so far are very light. This is due to
two causes: The later crop outside of
Texas and to the disturbed moving facili
ties in Texas, high freights, scarcity of
tonnage, congestion at the presses and
car shortage. San Antonio prints the
following: ‘‘Congestion at the press and
ear shortage are s-> great that the ex
, port movement to Galveston is considera-
I bly hampered."
A cable said: "Advance due to trade
buying."
The contract market eased after the
higher opening and ruled dull. Further
strength in Liverpool toward the close
i and reports from New York of buying by
Mitchell for the fall interests caused an
advance of 15 points in the second hour.
There is no opposition. Selling is timid
and the market advances on little buy
ing.
Some advices ate received from Texas
of a better demand and spot holders are
i firmer. Spot business very quiet here.
Further reports from New York show
that the market was stimulated by fear
of frost. The government says nothing
' about frost, nor is there any ground for
' it. All we get is the first cool wave
-which last year came as early as Au-
I gust 30. and caused temperatures as low
:as 52 in north Texas and Oklahoma.
) This year the coo! wave comes nearly
( three weeks later than last year and is
I not even as pronounced as it was then.

STOCKS SUSTAIN
THE HIGH LEVELS
Market Has Active Trading,,
With Irregularity in Prices
at the Close.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK. Sept. 18—Activity in Read
ing focused the interest of traders at the
opening of the stock market today. After I
opening % higher at 170%, the issue re- ■
ceded % and later went to 169%. United
States Steel common was bought for Paris
account and gained only' %, later losing
that.’ Union Pacific gained % on buying
supposed to come from the same source.
Amalgamated Copper, after opening un
changed. advanced %. Other gains were
Erie common > 4 . Pennsylvania %, Atchi
son %, Lehigh Valley %, Missouri Pacific
Canadian Pacific %. Southern Rail
way %. Southern Pacific was unchanged.
The curb was firm.
Americans in London were bullish on
the New York advance late yesterday.
A selling movement which started
shortly after the opening forced declines
ranging from % to 1 point in a number
of important Issues. Reading receded a
point. Union Pacific yielded % and similar
losses were recorded in Lehigh Valley,
Steel and Rock Island. Trading in other
issues was not influenced by' these re
cessions and some shares made slight
gains
Demand for stocks showed a pro
nounced falling off in the last hour and
price movements were toward lower
prices. Losses, however, in most cases
were confined to small fractions and re
cessions in the usually active issues were
to a great extent offset by advances in
the specialties.
The market closed firm; governments
unchanged; other bonds steady.

CHICAGO. Sept. 18.—Wheat was %c
lower this morning on the enormous re
ceipts in tlie northwest. Minneapolis and
Duluth getting 1.236 cars, against 593 car;
a year ago. Cables were lower for both
wheat and corn and conditions were
mop-; bearish.
t.orn was %®%c lower on large run ot
receipts anti the fact that frost was con
fined to central and western Nebraska,
where the crop is pretty well advanced.
Oats were %c lower with the other
grains and hog products were easier with
a decline of 5c in the price of hogs at the
yards.
While September wheat was under some
selling pressure and closed with a frac
tional loss, the December and May op
tions were %c to %c higher. The buying
late was largely by those who make a
specialty of "privileges,” and there was
also some Investment buying. Cash sales
wer 300,000 bushels.
Corn was %.c to l%c higher, and this
was somewhat below the highest leve’s
reached, especially for the September fu
ture.
Oats closed w»sh gains of %c to %c on
shorts covering and sympathy with
wheat.
With the exception of January pork,
which was 15c higher, the provision list
was mainly easier.
