Bag got ft Co.: There was very little cotton for sale today, and this was a chief fac tor fcr 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 v ere buyers. Market has little snap. Political news abroad better todav, but btillish 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 19.06. December 10.32, January 10.38, March 10.57. NEW ORLEANS. Oct. 16.—Hayward & Clark: The weather map Is favorable, showing partly cloudy to fair in central and eastern states; only few light sprin kles. Mississippi rainy; misty weather in Texas. Gcenral 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 60 miles per hour. Corpus Christi, very heavy blow. Telegraph poles blown down and general damage. Claimed 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-Democrat 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 that 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 justified by current environment, a fact which opens a question of cause and effect. As most cotton market operators are bearish to the core, and as no pronounced opposi tion to declines is in evidence, the spec ulative seller is probably restrained only by a lingering fear of a repetition of his disastrous experience in an oversold mar ket during the spring and early sum mer of >912. 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 to endure, thereby avoiding the conditions that caused the trouble of the short crowd last spring, remains to be seen.

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 line 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 wi'l prevent accu mulation of supplies.” COTTON MARKET OPINIONS. Thompson. Towle & Co.: "The only thing bullish In the market Is that It Is a condition to advance on any favorable developments.” Havden. Stone & Co: "Ihe market shows ver' little recuperative power.' Morris H. Rothschild ft t o.; We see nothing to encourage higher prices and would sell on all advances.” IHE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. T HURSDAY, OCTOBER 17. 1912. GDLOER BTHER: STEAOIESGOTTON Bears and Bulls Wrestle, With Practically No Change in Prices at Close. I NEW YORK. Oct. 16.—Irregularity pre vailed over the cotton market here at the .opening, with the tone steady 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 9 points above the opening figures. After the call the market was well supported, with a good demand and very little cot ton for sale. The buying on the opening was chiefly contributed to shorts and a few scattered spot interests and brokers with foreign connections, but this buying did not last throughout the morning session, as there was a wave of liberal selling from many different sources such as some of the largest operators were prominent sellers. Ihe 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, 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 rhe market was dull and featureless and prices continued to sag throughout the late trading around the initial figures. Cables receive] 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 lower than the closing prices of Tuesday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 16.—Press re ports from Paris and Londori 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 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. RANGE IN NEW ORLEANS FUTURES. C I H w ■ ® i L ® c.

Oct. 17.—Fractional price re cessions were made in wheat In sympathy with the bearish markets abroad, coupled with favorable weather for the movement of the northwestern crop. While there was a falling off in the northwestern re ceipts as compared with a week ago they were more than double those of a year ago. Winnipeg receipts were considerably in excess of comparative periods. A spe cial Liverpool cable says that some un easiness was shown in the Liverpool mar ket over the Balkan affair. Corn was unsettled, opening lower, but gaining strength with wheat, and it was soon above the resting spots of last night. Receipts here are light, but the cash de mand is at a standstill.

Above quotations apply to com-ted hogs Mash and peanut fattened hogs 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 promptly 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 many 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, ami other sections where feeders are obtained. Quotations on cotton seed meal ami 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 and lamb receipts Irregular, and quality uneven and mixed: market is stronger on best grades of lambs, slow on common kinds. Ilog market continues strong with lib eral supply; quality of this week's run has be* 11 the best of the season, and extreme high prices tor all fresh pork cuts ha- Improved the demand for light butchei pigs. 15
