NEW YORK. Oct. I.—Strength in Liv erpool cables caused the cotton market to open barely steady today with irregu larity predominating prices ranging 3 points higher to 4 points lower than last night’s close. The Journal of Commerce tn tneir cotton report on conditions as of September 24. placed condition at 70.3, showing a decline of 5.1 from the previous menth, which was 75.4. against 70.8 a year ago. This report when contrasted with previous year was regarded as very bear islt, 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, 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 above 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 very 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 w'armer 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. RANGE IN NEW ORLEANS FUTURES.

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" lhe 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 anil bonds today, amounting to more than $170,000,000. The initial weakness was immediately followed by a reaction and a number of stocks made material gains. The buying movement gave an appearance of Irregu 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. Stock quotations' I | |Last | Clos. Prev STOCKS— IHighlLow.lSale.l Bid. Cl's« Amal. Copper. l 91 90% 90%' 90% 91 Am.
