Holdings Are Thrown on Mar
ket Throughout Day in Face
of Bad Weather.
NEW YORK, Sept. 24. —Heavv realiz
ing predominated upon the cotton mar
ket today’ in the face of unfavorable
weather conditions, which resulted in
prices opening 3 to 7 points below last
nignt s close Liverpool cables showed a
decided weakness in the initial trading.
J™ v J’ as re P°Jted 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
®P‘J l houses and the ring speculators.
After rhe 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
waitmg 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
ing 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 makinc 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.

HAYWARD & CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. Sept 24.—The map
shows generally fair weather west of the
Atlantics. practically no rain, but cloudy
with general rains, heavy at many points
in the Atlantics. That these continued
tains are delaying maturity and harvest
ing in the eastern states is shown by the
verv 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
bv 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 at all
eager It mav be that spinners are inten
tionally holding out of the market, or
that they have sufficient supplies to defer
buying 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.

NEWS AND GOSSIP
Os the Fleecy Staple
Some good buying prevailed about noon j
on predictions of bad weather in the west, j
The 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 shorts cov- I
ering.
The government weekly report on
weather was considered very favorable,
and much better than expected.
During the early iradtng the ring
crowd hammered all positions.
The market was sold off today 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
Medil!”
Schill. Dicks and Schley best sellers
on decline today. McFadden and Hart
corn best buyers.
The demand for cotton seems to come
from good people
Following are 11 a m. bids: October
11.21. December 11.48, January 11.45,

NEW ORLEANS. Sept. 24 - Hayward &
Clark: The weather map shows general
ly fair west of the Atlantics. Practically
no rain, but cloudy; general rains; many
heavy rains in Atlantic states. Indica
tions are for another bad spell of weath
er coming on the belt, increasing cloud
iness: rainy weather, followed by colder
Friday in 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 connection with the movement of
the new crop. Bulls, on the other hand#
must rely to a very large extent on the
more subtle phases of the situation, and
In working up their case, 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 tig
tire out the crop, the guesses ranging all
the way from 12,750,000 to 15,000,000
bales.
The blg-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 hales 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 ot 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
1 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
1 commission houses dealt on both sides of
the market. Substantial gains were made
in Bethlehem Steel, Great Northern Ore.
Colorado Fuel and Republic Iron am!
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 in some of the other
I copper stocks.
The market closed strong
Government bonds unchanged. Other
bonds steady.

TODAY'S
MARKETS
COTTON.
NEW YORK, Sept. 25—Weakness in
Liverpool cables and absence of frost last
night caused the cotton market to open
barely steady today, with prices ranging 1
to 3 points lower to 1 point lower than
last night's* close. During the first fif
teen minutes of trading a good buying
wave prevailed, which appeared to come
from shorts who are believed to be r ov
ering on predictions of much colder
weather in the western belt tonight, and
prices advanced 7 to 9 points over the
opening figures. After the call the mar
ket became unsettled and sagged a few
points. The ring crowd was free sellers,
i while the buying was moderate and scat
tered.
Futures in Liverpool steady; spots
steady, with the demand limited.

STOCKS.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
-NEW YORK. Sept 25. Amalgamated
1 oper was one of the most prominent
stocks at the opening of the market to
day. advancing to 91%. Buying of this
issue was based on a belief that Ana
conda's lilvidend rate implies that the rate
of Amalgamated will be increased in Oc
tober. Most of the speculative interest
was centered in the industrials and many
of them made gains. Among them were
Steel comtnoq %, American Smelting %
and some of the equipment shares.
t’anadian Pacific was a strong issue
here as a result of buying in London on
tlie earnings report. After opening %e
liigiier here Canadian Pacific made still
further gains Southern Pacific was up
%. while Baltimore and Ohio and Mis
souri Pacific gained % each.
The curb was steady. Americans in
London were cheerful.

CHICAGO, Sept. 24—Wheat openet
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 th<
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 witl
wheat and following the weakness showr
early. Trade was small.
Oats stronger and a shade higher ot
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 low r er. 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
strength tn 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.
