BUREAU REPORTS REDOCECOTTON Gin and Crop Estimates En courage Heavy Liquidation. Causing Big Decline. NEW 5 ORK. Oct. 2.—At the opening <or the cotton market today, the census bureau issued its report oh ginnings as ? A.e t > A? n,l>er “ i ’- Placing ginned bales at J'XlvXS 0 ’ asatnst 3.67H.554 last year and 2.M2,0 ( 4 for 1910, causing the cotton mar ket to open barely steady, with prices ranging 2 to 7 points below last night s close. This report was about 15.000 bales in excess of expectations, and during the first fifteen minutes of trading the mar v, was under a general selling wave, which resulted m prices declining 5 to 6 po ,', n !? froni ,he early range. After the cad the market steadied and prices gained a few points of the initial decline Ihe liquidation was in limited range and a disposition existed among traders to hold their lines in check to meet the condition report, to be issued at 11 o clock, central time I ,he <fnal agricultural bureau report of the season on the cotton crop condition was placed at 69.6. against 74.8 last month anc L'l M last year, showing a decline in tondition from the previous month of 5.2 points and a decrease of 1.5 points front rhe same time last tear. This report came slightly better than expected, which caused a very bearish feeling, and the bears used the argument that the condi ditton report indicates a very large crop. This caused heavy liquidation front many sources, causing a precipitant downward movement, witli January leading the de cline This option was hammered heav ily by ring speculators and local bears, and within thirty minutes after the re port was'in circulation this option showed 2, points decline from last night's close, while other positions aggregated 20 to 25 points loss front the previous figures The bulls seemed to be hacked, and it looks as if it will require the services of the bears to bring about a reaction. However, the short interest is still large, and it is believed any unfavorable con dition in weather or crop there would undoubtedly be a substantial upturn in prices, but at present the bear element appears to have all sentiment in their favor. At the close the market was easy, with prices showing a net decline of 29 to 32 points from the final quotations of Tues day. Weekly interior movement: j 191,2. i 1911. | 1910.

Liverpool shows many significant sea l tures today. Futures were lower than 1 due Spots 1 point lower; sales 14,000 bales. There was a cable saying: "War officially declared,” and the large spot sales show that there is apprehension of decreasing Imports of cotton, as with war ! in progress available tonnage may be used in preference tor grain, etc., and for war purposes, and credit facilities for the import of cotton lessened.

'SMftLLCHANGES IN STOCK PRICES Market Readily Absorbs For eign Offerings in Face of Eu ropean Complications. By CHARLES W. STORM. XEV YORK. Oct. 2. —After opening | weak and sustaining losses ranging from I ,ra l'.t l £ , i s to 2 points, the stock market rallied today, although the early up turns gave an appearance of irregularity rather than steadiness. Canadian Pacific sustained the great- I est initial loss, opening at 276%. or 2 points under last night's close. The cop per stocks were depressed. Amalgamated losing and American Smelting %. The I opening weakness here reflected the gen eral feeling of tension and depression pre vailing in London and the continental bourses over the Balkan war situation. United States Steel opened % lower, al though it later made up part of this loss. Southern Pacific. Baltimore and Ohio and Reading each lost % on the opening sales. 11 ithin fifteen minutes, however, rallies were in order In that time, Reading gained ail but % of its decline and Cana dian Pacific had climbed from 276% to 21.%. The curb market was weak. Americans in London declined. Cana dian Pacific in London was sold heavily for Berlin and Paris accounts. A firm tone was shown in the late fore noon. A number of the leading issues made slight gains, but price movements generally were confined within a narrow margin. Baltimore and Ohio was strong and a gain of 14 was made in Amalga mated Copper. Outside of some of the easily moved specialties the tone in the late afternoon was steady and movements generally took the form of fractional recessions. Steel, after selling at 79. reacted to 78%. and similar losses were noted in the leading Industrials and railroads. There was an upturn of over 2 points in Woolworth common, carrying the price to 117. Ameri can Snuff gained 2 points to 191.

Northwestern re ceipts were smaller than a week ago. as well as a year ago, while those at Winni peg were larger. Corn was up %c to %c and the Octo ber option was well held, while the more deferred futures were inclined to be east Conditions over the corn belt are more favorable and the market at the moment seems to lack speculative buyers. Oats were up %c to %c, easier and firm with the other grains. Hog products showed advances during the first half hour in sympathy with the advance in hog prices at the yards. Wheat closed % to %c higher. The tone was firm throughout the session. Firm cables and the Balkan war news were the principal influences. Lighter receipts in the Northwest also added strength Shorts and local bulls were the principal buyers. The close showed losses from the best levels of the day of % to %c. Corn closed with prices ranging from % to I%c better. The market was dull and featureless with the strength tn wheat the only factor. Oats closed % to %c better. The market trailed the other grains.

The company is not worried about getting rid of the grain, but is buying heavier than ever, local grain men say. The September corner was success ful only in raising the price moderately, the action of the Board of Trade in al lowing deliveries in cars on track in stead of elevators, preventing sky rocket points. It is believed the Ar mours have not been disappointed, but that the attempted corner was con ducted in the interest of Northwestern millers. The high price paid by Ar mours is said to have been for the pur pose of shutting out the competition of Southwestern millers. BUTTER, POULTRY AND EGGS. NEW YORK.
