NEW YORK, Oct 1. Strength in Liv- J 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 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. M a yeas ago. This report when contrasted with previous year was regarded as very bear- 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 b\ 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 tile most conservative operators believe there should be a goud 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. NQE OF NFW YORK FUTU s Ns-: 2 0 | CCI U U Oct.

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. Tiie 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 fur 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.

But Heavy Buying in Last Hour Causes Reaction. By CHARLES W. STORM. NEW Y’ORK, 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 tiie 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 $170,000,000. 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 I I Last | Clos.lPrev STOCKS- |Highll.ow.'Sa 1 e.l B i d.lCl'.M Amal Copper' 91 fO-V 90%* 90%’ 91 Am.

ST. LOUIS CASH QUOTATIONS. Wheat—No. 2 red 105 @106% Corn 69% Oats 33 @ 33% t'HICAGO, Oct. I.—Wheat opened strong in tune and from %c 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 for 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 firm and higher. Sym pathy with strength in wheat was the main factor. The war scare helped. Wheat showed net advances of %c to %c for the daj and closed around the best prices reached. There was only a, small business in cash wheat, total sales amounting to 10.000 bushels. Clearances for the das' 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 tiie free delivery of lard here there would be a price set back. but instead of a decline there was an advance.
