Bears Hammer Heavily on
Better Weather and Weak
Cables, Causing Decline.
NEW YORK, Sept. 27. Easier cables
and an absence of expected frost over the
eastern belt caused the cotton market to
open barely steady with a decline of from
4 to 8 points today. After the start there
was some buying which steadied the list.
This was accredited to commission houses
which bad orders to buy when prices got
under 11 cents.
About 50,000 notices were issued on Oc
tober contracts, which were stopped by
spot houses. This checked the downward
trend and prices rallied a few points from
the early range. The weather conditions
overnight were very favorable, with indi
cations for inertwising cloudiness in the
western states.
The principal feature of today’s trad
ing has been liquidation in October, with
the long interest much larger than ex
pected.
Fully 300.000 bales hate been thrown
on the market today and belief is that
scattered longs hate liquidated and the
ring and country is on the short side.
Continuous selling by the ring crowd
witli a certain broker, who represents a
spot interest, was credited with the pur
chase of fully. 10,000 bales. Also New
Orleans was said to be a free seller, and
prices during the afternoon session ag
gregated 5 to 11 points below the open
ing. or 10 to 13 points decline from the
previous close.
It is believed that now, since October is
out of the way, there will be a short
covering movement and prices are antici
pated to have a reaction.
With unfavorable weather or crop re
ports there would undoubtedly be a pre
ciiptant and substantial advance. The
Journal of Commerce’s report on condi
tions was extremely bullish on Georgia.
North Carolina and South Carolina. It
was rumored that the National dinners’
association condition was 69.1, but this
was not confirmed.
At the close the market was barely
steady with prices a net decline of 7 to 16
points from the final quotations of Thurs
day.

HAYWARD <L CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 27.—That the
crop this month has suffered greatly by
adverse weather conditions is being more
and more confirmed by reliable reports.
Continued rainy w’eather in the eastern
states during the past wo weeks, coming
on top of a hot spell, caused the dam
age—the more so as the crop was just
opening. The map again shows unfa
vorable, rainy weather overnight in the
eastern states, and prospects are for con
tinued rainy weather, except perhaps
clear and colder in North Carolina.
Weather conditions over the western half
of the belt are more favorable; practically
no rain; rising temperatures; but the
damage In Oklahoma is done.
A reliable party wires from that state:
"AU top crop prospect killed by the
cold weather; heavy to killing frost over
the greater portion of the state. Crop
seriously damaged; at least 20 per cent.”
The market, however, seems to pay less
attention to change in crop prospects
than to the unfavorable technical situa
tion and the spot situation.
Liverpool came in today about 4 points
lower than due and shows only 5.000 spot
sales, quoting the tone of the market as
“pressed for sale."
Our market opened about 4 points
lower on the weakness in the other mar
kets, made a few spasmodic attempts to
rally, but support was not continued and
prices sagged back to the opening figures.
Spot news is not yet strong. Demand
is slow, but the basis for good grades
Is holding up. The advance in the basis
for good grades shows that fear is en
tertained of the grade outturn.

Large Interests Accumulate
Steel—Liquidation Offset by
Sufficient Absorption.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, Sept. 27.—Colorado Fuel
and Iron. Great Northern Ore Certificates
and F. W. Woolworth established new
high records for the year at the opening
of the stock market today. Colorado Fuel
and Iron opened at 42%, an advance of
% Ore certificates w-ere up %at 52 and
Woolworth sold at 10884, a Kain of (4.
Bethlehem Steel, which made a new high
record for the movement yesterday, sold
off %.
Trading in United States Steel was one
of the most interesting features at the
outset. Within the first few minutes this
issue had gained %. although profit-tak
ing then developed which caused a waver
ing tone.
Canadian Pacific was strong on London
gain opening % up. Missouri Pacific was
another firm issue, gaining 84 at the out
set which it afterward Increased to %.
Reading yielded %, Amalgamated Cop
per gained % and promptly lost It. Ameri
can Smelting was up %. Erie common and
Atchison were unchanged. The curb was
firm. Americans in London were firm.
A quiet tone was shown in the general
list In the late forenoon and price move
ments in the majority of the leading is
sues were confined within a narrow range.
Reading showed a firmer tone and some
moderate gains were made in the minor
Industrials and coppers. New Y’ork Cen
tral. Missouri Pacific and Texas Pacific
were in good demand, advancing about a
point each.
Nearly all the speculative interest in the
last hour was centered tn United States
Steel. The buying of that issue contin
ued on a broad scale, forcing the price up
to 76"4. The demand was so persistent
as to start many conflicting rumors as
to the Incentive and source of the bull
movement.
Stocks closed strong; governments un
changed; other bonds steady.

BIRMINGHAM, ALA., Sept. 27—Pig
iron for delivery during the first half
of 1913 Is now quoted at sl4 per ton No.

runaway market is feared bv brokers,
which means that prices are likely to
advance too rapidly. Because of the ap
prehension of the railroad car shortage,
consumers of pig Iron are urging imme
diate deliverj- on orders placed some time

CHICAGO, Sept. 27. —There were fur
ther price recessions in wheat this morn
ing on lower Liverpool prices and in
creased offerings In the pit. Argentine
shipments were liberal and the market
there is. quite dull.
Corn was off l**c for September and %c
to %c for the more deterred months. The
principal influence was favorable weather
throughout the belt.
Oats were %c to %c lower, in sympathy
with the break in corn.
Hog products were easier.
Wheat closed %c higher all around to
day. final prices being about %c above the
low point for tlie day.
Favorable weather in the Northwest for
crop movement, weak cables and beads.i
foreign news generally were the principal
influences. A slow cash demand at win
ter wheat points and continued liberal re
ceipts were also factors.
Corn was off sharply, prices ranging
from Bic to l%c lower. The heavy feeling
was caused mainly by the failure of dam
aging frosts of consequence to develop
over the corn belt, coupled with weak
ness in the cash market.
Oats were % to %c lower with the other
grains.
Provisions were slightly lower all
around.
