FOREIGN SITUATION CAUSES
NARROW TRADING IN GRAIN
CHICAGO. Oct. 16. —The Inter-Ocean
says:
"Security markets have had their liqui
dation and war scare, but the grain trade
is constantly on edge, fearing new de
velopments of an unfavorable character.
The trade in general has assumed a
scalping position and is operating for
small profits. The war scare has pre
vented heavy selling of corn by the
bears, and no one has out a big Sine of
shorts, while the best interests in the
trade are inclined to be bullish, believing
that reserves of old corn will be well
cleaned out and the movement of new
corn will be taken care of in the first two
or three months, which will prevent accu
mulation of supplies."
Miss Woodward
‘Mystery’ Committee
It is not often that women figure promi
nently in Atlanta political campaigns, but
there was one who figured largely—al
though not prominently—in the one which
closed last night with Woodward’s vic
tory.
This was Miss Nannie Woodward,
daughter of the successful candidate.
Miss Woodward was one of three mem
bers of the "mysterious Woodward cam
paign committee,” about which there was
considerable comment by Chambers ad
herents in newspaper advertisements.
Since the primary the identity of the
“mysterious committee" has been made
known.
In addition to Miss AA’oodward the com
mittee consisted of “Uncle Jim” himself
and Frank Hammond, a well-known At
lanta newspaper man. Even before Mr.
AVoodward announced Mr. Hammond be
came interested in his candidacy and be
gan urging him to toss his hat into the
municipal ring. And after he announced
Mr. Hammond wrote newspaper adver
tisements which charged a "ring” differ
ent from the one into which "Uncle
Jim s” hat was tossed.
Although he wrote many columns of
advertisements which boosted Mr. Wood
ward’s candidacy and took an active part
in his campaign, Hammond’s name never
was mentioned publicly. In fact few out
side of those directly connected with the
candidacy of either candidate knew of his
work and he avoided publicity for himself
throughout.
And working with him all the time were
the successful candidate himself and Miss
Woodward.

Os the Fleecy Staple
NEW YORK. Oct. 16.—Carpenter. Bag
got Co.: There was very little cotton
for sale today, and this was a chief fac
tor for the short covering. The demand
continued good throughout the day.
Spot interests have been among the
most aggressive parties of the day, but
no spinners demand was reported.
Dallas wires: “Texas—Generally cloudy
and damp; San Antonio reports raining
since yesterday afternoon: drizzling rain
at Jacksonville, Athens, Mount Pleasant.
Merkel: raining at Eastland all night;
light rain at Nacogdoches. Oklahoma
Generally fair; 40 to 56 above.
The market was bought today on storm
news, but the crowd was inclined to sell
on all rallies and pay little attention to
anything bullish.
McFadden, Mitchell, Springs, Riordan
were sellers on declines. Bashford. Shear
son and Waters best buyers and those
who sold yesterday were buyers. Market
has little snap.
Political news abroad better today, but
bullish influences seem to have little ef
fect on market, as sentiment continues
extremely bearish. Trade buying has
been principal support today.
Following are 11 a m. bids: Octo
ber 10.06, December 10.32, January 10.38,
March 10.57.
NEW ORLEANS. Oet. 16. —Hayward &
Clark: The W'eather map is favorable,
showing partly cloudy to fair in central
and eastern states; only few light sprin
kles. Mississippi rainy: misty weather in
Texas. Geenral precipitation, mostly light
in Texas, except south portion, where it
is heavier. Storm formation touching
south Texas indicated course over Rio
Grande into Mexico. Indications are for
partly cloudy to fair in central and east
ern states: misty, rainy weather In west
ern states. Storm over mouth of Rio
Grande will in all probability move up
that river into Mexico. No danger for
belt indicated.
Official sources report from Browns
ville, Tex., says: “Severe storm here.
About ten houses blown dwon. Wind
blowing about 50 miles per hour Corpus
Christi, very heavy blow. Telegraph poles
blown down and general damage. Claimed
a. 'part of dock at Aransas Pass gone.
Heavy rains well scattered over the state.
Damaging open cotton.”
Liverpool reports covering of large short
lines today.
Extensive cold wave formation in north
west. but will hardly be felt before be
ginning of next week.
Storm warning: Hurricane warning or
dered for Texas coast.
The New Orleans Times-Dembcrat says:
Neither the talent nor the trade is now
devoting much time or attention to the
ultimate questions of supply and require
ment, as both are kept full busy with
price factors and market phases ti at af
fect the present rather than the future.
Nevertheless, since the preponderance of
evidence bearing upon distant develop
ments distinctly faVors the bearish cause,
provided, of course, that the crop is to
prove a fairly large one and the equi
poise of trade is' to receive some sort of
a telling jolt from the complicated state
the political affairs of Europe have fallen
into, the follower of the bearish banner
now feels little or no concern over the
outcome.
For these reasons, the cotton market
appears helpless and largely friendless at
times. However, the declines are far
more gradual than the extreme big crop
low price people believe are fustined by
current environment, a fact which opens a
question of cause and effect. As most
cotton market operators are bearish to
the core, snil as no pronounced opposi
tion to declines Is in evidence, the spec
ulative seller is probably restrained onlv
by a lingering fear of a repetition of bis
disastrous experience in an oversold mar
ket during the spring and early sum
mer of 1912. therefore he is not selling
himself Into a hole now. Whether this
fear will become abated under the in
fluence of slack demand for the actual,
the spread of Europe's war fever and
the accumulation of unsold stocks on this
side, or whether it is so deep rooted as lo
endure, thereby avoiding the conditions
that caused the trouble of the short crowd
last spring, remains to be seen

Bears and Bulls Wrestle. With
Practically No Change in
Prices at Close.
YORK. Oct. 16.—Irregularity pre
vailed over the cotton market here at
, the opening, with the tone nteadv and
• first prices ranging from unchanged to 5
, points lower to 3 points higher than last
• night s close. A sudden aggressive move
ment predominated at the outset on a
hurricane warning ordered sent over Tex
as. and the storm apparently approaching
the south Texas coast with increasing in
tensity, and prices quickly regained the
initial decline, advancing some 5 to 8
points above the opening figures. After
the call the market was well supported,
With a good demand and very little cot
tor. for sale.
The buying on the opening was chiefly
i contributed to shorts and a few scattered
. spot interests and brokers with foreign
I connections, but this buying did not last
| throughout the morning session, as there
I U a wave liberal selling from many
different sources such as some of the
operators w’ere prominent sellers.
The principal feature of today’s trading
was the covering of shorts on the very
unfavorable weather map indicating a
cold wave coming over the western belt,
i but it will hardly be noticeable before the
' beginning of next week, but the market
found ready sellers on all upturns. It was
reported that the South continues to
liquidate here and prices during the aft
ernoon trading was an aggregate of 1 to 5
points above the previous close. At times
the market was dull and featureless and
prices continued to sag throughout the
late trading around the initial figures.
Cables received from abroad of the po
litical situation was optimistic, but the
bullish reports seem to have had very lit
tle influence on the market
At the close the market was steady
with prices displaying irregularity, being
1 to 5 points higher to 1 to 4 points low’er
than the closing prices of Tuesday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 16. —Press re
ports from Paris and London showed a
more hopeful tone today. They state that
great satisfaction is felt in diplomatic
circles over the conclusion of peace be
tween Italy and Turkey and that all ef
forts will be directed to localizing the war
to the Balkans. An ultimatum by Greece,
Servia and Bulgaria is expected today.
Whether this expression of optimism is
well founded, or merely inspired to stem
to the -financial demoralization remains to
be seen.
Liverpool reflected the change in a
steadier market with futures about 4
points’ better than due. Spots 10 points
i lower.
Our market opened a few points better
and was well sustained by a more gen
eral demand as the result of the threaten
ing weather is the west and better politi
cal foreign reviews, but New York seemed
flat and depressed in the first hour by
heavy selling which checked the recovery
here. Corpus Christi and Brownsville,
Texas, reported severe storm and this
news caused an advance of 10 points in'
the second hour. The market in the next
36 hours will depend on weather develop
ments and particularly the course which
the southeast Texas storm will take.

apprehension felt regarding the Balkan
matter. While Northwestern receipts
were considerably smaller than a week
ago they were much larger than a year
ago. W’eather in the Northwest is favor
able for threshing and movement, and
heavy receipts are looked for.
Corn was to %c lower early on the

l@l%c lower
Cattle receipts nominal with a better se
lection of steers than usual. Several loads
of good fleshy butcher cattle with quite a
good many good grade heifers were among
the week's receipts, which sold promptiv
at prevailing quotations to a shade higher
on the best. Cow stuff in good flesh is in
good demand while the lower grades are
a slow sale at lower prices.
Several loads of feeders were received
this week, which met with a good de
mand and quick sale. Quite a good manv
feeders were on through billings to near
by points, although the movements of
feeders are considered light for the sea
son and the present indications point to a
short supply owing to the advance prices
in Tennessee, and other sections where
feeders are obtained.
Quotations on cotton seed meal and
hulls are reasonable, and it is expected
that stock men securing a good grade of
feeding steers will do well with them this
season.
Sheep ami lamb receipts irregular, and
quality uneven and mixed: market is
stronger on best grades of lambs, slow
011 common kinds.
Ilog market continues strong with lib
eral supply . quality of this week’s run has
been thf best of the season, and extreme
high prices for all fresh pork cuts has
improved the demand for light butcher
pigs
