in their cotton report on conditions as of
September 24. placed condition at 70.3,
showing a decline of 5.1 from the previous
month, which was 75.4, against 70.8 a year
ago. This report when contrasted with
previous year was regarded as very bear
ish* causing free selling from many
sources which resulted in most active
positions dropping 5 to 8 points from the
early range. The buying was general,
which seemed to come chiefly from shorts.
Throughout the morning session the
market was marked with heavy selling, j
which seemed to come mostly from com
mission houses and the ring crowd. This
selling was thought to be to further long
liquidation. The buying was chiefly con
tributed to spot interests and some short
covering before the government report, to
be issued tomorrow’ at noon, which is
anticipated by many to be around 69.
There was fair buying by certain bro
kers, which was said to be for New Or
leans account.
During the afternoon trading shorts
continued to cover and prices regained
the initial decline, ranging from un
changed to 6 points abdve the opening
prices.
A disposition rest among the bears to
hold their cotton, as some of the most
conservative operators believe there
should be a good rally in the very near fu
ture.
At the close the market was steady
with prices ranging from unchanged to 5
points above the final quotations of Mon
day,

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. I.—The Journal
of Commerce surprised the trade with a
high condition average of 70.3 against
70.8 last year.
Foreign political news show a verv
critical situation. London says very lit
tle is needed to start a war in the Balk
ans. This may lead to a general upset
in Europe. The weather map shows bet
ter conditions; fair in northern half;
cloudy southern half; no frost or rain, ex
cept little rain on the immediate coast.
Indications for partly cuoudy to fair and
warmer in the northwest; cooler in the
southeast; possibly some rain In the east
ern gulf and southeastern Atlantic dis
tricts. There is a storm formation in the
gulf, but so far there is enough high
pressure over the continent to keep it
at sea.
Our market opened a little lower and
remained flat. Trading small; no disposi
tion to increase short committments be
fore bureau day and a little short cov
ering rallied prices.

BAD CABLE NEWS
Market Stagnates Early, But
Heavy Buying in Last Hour
Causes Reaction.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, Oct. I.—Weakness was
the dominant factor in the stock market
at the opening today, with Canadian Pa
cific sustaining a loss of 1%. the biggest
decline among the standard Issues. Tra
ders assigned several causes for the
weakness, among them the Balkan sit
uation and the raised call money rate,
which followed the calling of loans by
banks for the payment of dividends and
.Interest on stocks and bonds today,
amounting to more than $170,000,006.
The initial weakness was immediately
followed by a reaction and a number of
| stocks made material gains. The buying
i movement gave an appearance of irregu-
I larity. United States Steel common
opened % off, but made up % of the
| loss. Amalgamated Copper showed the
same decline. Among the other declines
on first sales were Erie common %. Read
ing %, American .Smelting %. Missouri
Pacific %. Union Pacific %, Southern Pa
cific %.
The curb market was irregular.
The London market was depressed by
the Balkan outlook, reflecting the sen
timent of all the continental bourses.
Americans there were heavy and Cana
dian Pacific was weak on general selling.
In the late afternoon trading a number
of the important issues made substantial
gains, although selling on a large scale
continued to come from London. The tone
held firm.
The market closed firm, government
bonds unchanged: other bonds steady.

CHICAGO, Oct. 1. —Wheat opened
strong in tone and from '4c to %c higher
In price today, mainly on strong cables,
which caused a good buying demand. The
strength In Liverpool was attributed to
the Balkan war scare and to an im
proved demand fot' American and Cana
dian wheat. Russian offerings were also
firmer.
Corn was firm and a shade higher at
the opening, but prices eased off under
free offerings.
Oats were steady to a shade higher.
Demand was fair at the start.
Provisions were firin and higher. Sym
pathy with strength in wheat was the
main factor. The war scare helped.
Wheat showed net advances of %c tn
%c for the day and closed abound the
best prices reached There was only a
small business in cash wheat, total sales
amounting to 19,000 bushels. Clearances
for the day were again liberal at 647.-
000 bushels, but this was mainly old
sales.
Corn closed %c to %c lower. Corn
was under considerable pressure and was
almost completely without recuperative
power. There were sales of 80.000 bush
els of cash corn and 110,000 bushels of
cash oats.
Oats were unchanged to %c lower
The provision market was a surprise
to everybody, as it was generally believed
this morning that with the free delivery
of lard here there would be a price set
back. but instead of a decline there was
an advance.
