Holdings Are Thrown on Mar
ket Throughout Day in Face
of Bad Weather.
NEW YORK. Sept. 24. -Heavy realiz
ing predominated upon the cotton mar
. ’ £°day in the face of unfavorable
, "eather conditions, which resulted In
ppees opening 3 to 7 points below last
nigot s close. Liverpool cables showed a
declued weakness in the initial trading.
L T aa reported that the market
there feels the influence of increased
hedge selling. The weakness in the ca
ble news was believed to have encour
aged the realizing' movement to a great
extent. The selling was led by large
S , P A >I h o us e s and the ring speculators.
After the call the market developed Ir
regularity from the early range.
During tne inital trading the manipula
tion of all positions were allowed to run
its course and scattered long and the ring
crowd hammered heavily on being tired of
waiting and the bears took the advantage
of the situation and liquidated heavily
and as there,was no special bull support
prices receded to a lower level aggregat
’UK 10 to 16 points below the previous
close. The bulls appear at present to be
awaiting for further news from the belt
and show hesitancy in making .their ap
pearance in the market. Weather pre
dictions were for a bad spell coming over
the western belt. This, however, had no
effect and the prevailing belief Is that the
ring crowd is short.
Some scattered buying prevailed during
the afternoon session which seemed to
come from the ring crowd, but this did
not stimulate the market to any extent
and prices only regained about 3 to 6
points of the early decline.
A sudden buying wave prevailed dur
ing the last half hour of trading on pre
dictions of cold weather over night and
prices regained a large majority of the
decline At the close the market was
very steady with prices ranging from un
changed to 6 points below the final fig
ures of Monday.

DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. Sept 24.--The map
shows generally fair weather west of the
Atlantlcs, practically no rain, but cloudy
with general rains, heavy at many points
in the Atlantlcs. That these continued
rains are delaying maturity and harvest
ing in the eastern states is shown by’ the
very small receipts there compared with
last year. Weather prospects are dis
tinctly unfavorable.
Our market opened about 4 points
lower, and remained flat and easy in spite
of the very unfavorable weather pros
pects. Chances for unfavorable reports
by The Journal of Commerce and a bull
ish October bureau Intimidate selling as
do also prospects for further delay to crop
and advance in the good grade basis on
account of bad weather
The market appears to be waiting for
some decisive action by leading operators
or a change in the spot situation. Just at
the moment spot demand is not a; all
eager. It mav be that spinners are inten
tionally jiolding out of the market, or
that they have sufficient supplies to defer
btiving on a large scale. Should the
weather In the near future become really
bad so as to change crop views, it may
break the reserve now existing among
spot consumers.

Os the Fleecy Staple
Some good buying prevailed about noon
on predictions ot bad weather in the west.
Tne ring crowd, who were such liberal
sellers during the early trading, are be
lieved to have gone short, and later, dur
ing the forenoon trading, bought rather
freely, which was said to be snorts cov
ering
rhe government weekly report on
weather was considered ven favorable,
and much better than expected.
I'tiring the early trading the ring
crowd hammered all positions.
t he market was sold off todav on ma
nipulation.
Hibbert, Finlay and Hood, of Liverpool,
cable: "The market feels the influence
of Increased hedge selling."
Dallas wires: 'Texas—Generally clear
and cool; 50 at Amarillo; 45 at Abilene;
67 at Dallas Oklahoma—Partly cloudy
to cloudy and cool; raining Tulsa and
Medill."

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 24 Hayward &
Clark. The weather map shows general*
ly fair west of the Atlantlcs. Practically
no rain, but cloudy: general rains; many
heavy rains in Atlantic states. Indica
tions are sot 1 another bad spell of weath
er coming on the belt, increasing cloud
inpss; rainy weather, followed by colder
Friday m northwestern part of belt.
There are more bears than bulls in the
cotton market, the reason being the
availability of some obviously bearish
facts in eontiection with the movement of
the new crop. Bylls, on the other'hand,
musi rely to a very large extent on the
more subtle phases of the situation, and
in working up their ease, say that the
reason business in the actual is no more
brisk and the reason port stocks are ac
cumulating is that the trade can not fig
ure out the crop, the guesses ranging all
the way from 12,750,000 to 15,000.000
bales.
The big-crop, low-price people make
much of the fact that, while port re
ceipts thus far have fallen behind last
year by 122,983 bales, port stocks have so
Increased as to now stand 78,190 bales in
excess of last year. Meanwhile, exports
continue dropping behind those of last
year. The weather Saturday and Sun
day was distinctly unfavorable, heavy
rains falling throughout the Atlantic and
central states, and more rain being prom
ised for the eastern belt. A small storm
in the Gulf attracted very little attention,
as there was nothing to give it the ap
pearance of a feared West Indian blow.
Heavy rains at this time, when most of
the crop is open, will undoubtedly damage
the grade, but the trade Is by no means
prepared to admit that the yield is in any
danger of being curtailed thereby. In the
west, the grade of the Texas and Okla
homa crops seems to be turning out all
right.

Steel and Copper Shares Most
Active- Heavy Gains in the
Last Hour.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK. Sept. 24. Narrowness
dominated the stock market at the open
ing today and initial movements were
generally toward lower levels. The best
gain was made by Southern Pacific which
advanced % on its second transaction but
later it receded.
Among the recessions were United
States Steel common %. Amalgamated
Copper %. Reading %, Union Pacific ■%
Pennsylvania and American Smelting
gained %. Baltimore and Ohio and Le
high Valley were unchanged on their first
sales. The list was somewhat depressed
by the failure of the firm of S. R. Dow
& Co., and it failed to rally from the ad
vance in London caused by speculators
buying for the new account which begins
tomorrow
The curb was easy. Americans in Lon
don were firm. Canadian Pacific there
was sympathetically higher.
The tone In the late forenoon was irreg
ular. Important interests were liberal
sellers-of the important railroads, while
commission houses dealt on both sides of
the market. Substantial gains were made
I in Bethlehem Steel, Great Northern Ore.
: Colorado Fuel and Republic Iron and
Steel common while Reading, Union Pa
cific and Lehigh Valley showed slight
losses.
Late trading was without any special
feature and price changes were small,
with most of the leading stocks shading
off fractionally from the midday range.
Most of the traders were professionals.
Anaconda after its fractional upturn on
the increased dividend announcement,
lost nearly all its gain, but there was a
show of strength Tn some of the other
copper stocks.
The market closed strong
Government bonds unchanged. Other
bonds steady.

CHICAGO. Sept. 24. —Wheat opened
quiet this morning and was fractionally
lower, but firmed up on some covering.
Unfavorable weather was reported In sec
tions of the spring wheat country and the
receipts in the Northwest were restricted
somewhat thereby, yet they exceeded
those of a year ago. Cables were frac
tionally lower.
Corn was firmer In sympathy with
wheat and following the weakness shown
early. Trade was small.
Oats stronger and a shade higher on
small offerings.
Provisions slower and little change
The range In wheat today was small
and important features were lacking.
Final prices were % to %c higher. Buy
ing by strong houses was the late
strengthening factor and changed a weak,
dull market to a strong, active one.
Corn closed with prices ranging from
% to %c lower. Despite the fact that the
tone was firm most of the day, good sell
ing late in the day forced prices down
Oats closed % to %c better. The early
sfrength in corn helped oats, but the mar
ket was almost featureless
Provisions closed generally higher. The
market was supported by the packers.
Trade was fair and the tone was firm,
partially due to small hog receipts here
and in the West.
