HEffl SELLING LOWERSCOTTDN 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.

Ma.-s<?v. ■— 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.

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 Following are 10 a. in. bids: October 11.37.

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. Stock quotations: I | ILast I Clos.lPrev STOCKS— |H!ghlLow.|Sale.l Bid.jOl’se Amal. Copper. 91 | 89%' 90% 90% 89% Am.

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. RICWf vnni» l»u.v. lUhfi, Quotations in cotton futures: I I | |ll:ooTPrev7 [Open!High Low |A.M.| Close. September .11. .

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. Stock quotations: I I I |ll:ooiPrev STOCKS— IQpen [High |Low. |A. M. |Cl’se Amal. Copper. »T%T9f%|~91%| 91% 90% Am. Sug. Ref 128', 128% 128% 128', 128 Am.

Provisions slower and little change. The range in wheat today was small and important features were lacking Final prices were % to %c higher.

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.
