EARLY GAIN LOST
IN COTTON CLOSE
Spot Interests Join Bears in
Hammering Prices After a
Substantial Advance.
NEW YORK. Oct. s.—Covering for the
week-end caused the cotton market to
open firm today with first prices ranging
1 to 4 points over last night’s close. After
the call spot houses began io sell freely,
but the ring crowd readily absorb all of
ferings and prices made a further upward
move in most active positions of 5 to 10
points. The weather map indicated very
unfavorable conditions over Sunday.
l.ater during the short session a dis
position rested among the ring crowd to
sell on the advance, as there was a dif
ference of opinion among traders as to
the weather. Large spot interests were
heavy buyers throughout the day, but the
realizing pressure was in excess of the
aggressive movement and prices at the
close of the market was steady with
prices a net decline of 6 to 11 points from
the final quotations of Friday.

I’HICAOO. Oct. -While the wheat
market was fractionally higher at the
start, the advance brought out heavy of
ferings and a price setback of %c was
the result. Liverpool closed %d to %d
higher, chiefly in sympathy with the ad
vance at Chicago yesterday. There was
nothing new regarding the political sit
uation abroad, and until it is settled the
market i« likely 1o rule nervous. North
western receipts were larger and this cut
some figure in the matter of price mak
ing.
Wheat prices showed losses of % to 1c
today and the feeling was weak at the
recessions. New buying power must be
seen in order to keep this market above
present price levels, as the offerings con
tinue big every time a bulge Is seen. The
cash situ 'ion was dull with sales of only
3.i.000 bushels and Duluth reported cash
as slow jl- e and Minneapolis advicej,
were of onl a fair demand on milling ac
count.
Corn closed % to %c lower and resting
spots were around the bottom levels.
Oats were % to %>• lower on selling by
longs. Cash sales of corn were 80,000
bushels and of oats 205.000 bushels.
Hog products were influenced by the
break in corn and they closed lower also.
