COTTON GOES IIP
DNSPOTDEiND
Frost Warning Upholds Prices,
Despite Selling on Ginners’
Report by Bears.
NEA YORK, Oct. 22—A bullish map
caused a sudden short covering wave
at the opening of the cotton mar
ket resulting in prices showing a net gain
in first prices of 7<lilo points from the
closing prices of Monday. Large spot In
terests led the aggressiveness, especially
those who have foreign connections. After
the call offerings were small and scattered
while the buying continued heavy with
prices advancing 4@7 points over the
opening range.
During the late forenoon trading, the
took a backset on the selling of
\x all Street and commission houses, which
was said to be on the unfavorable cables
regarding the Balkan situation. The most
potent factor that started the liquidation
was Neil's estimate of 14.750.000 bales and
the bearish report from National Ginners
placing figures at 6,900,000 bales ginned
and estimating 5,000,000-bale crop in Tex
as. These reports caused continued sell
ing from good sources and prices lost
most of the initial advance, but shorts
continued to cover, with spot interests
noticeable buyers, which upheld prices
with an aggregate of 9 to 12 points over
last night's close.
-_, Th . e prediction for light frost in north
Mississippi tonight caused some uneasi
ness among the bears, as a heavy frost In
that section of the belt within the next
ten days would undoubtedly cause con
siderable damage.
At the close the market was steady,
with a net gain in prices of 5 to 13 points
from the final quotations of Monday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 22 —The weather
continues unfavorable in the central and
eastern states with continued general
rains. The harvesting season in those
states has been bad so far. The map
shows colder in the northwestern quarter,
with 28 degrees in the northwestern cor
ner of Texas. No frost in the cotton belt
proper.
Liverpool showed some strength today,
advancing as much as 7 English points on
futures, with spot prices 3 points higher.
There was no confirmation of the rumored
failures in Paris, but consols and French
rentes this morning were somewhat lower.
Continued bad weather Is causing un
easiness to the trade, and the demand for
contracts to cover is increasing, and is
reflected in the steadiness of the contract
markets which have recently showed
alertness in recovering from depressions.
The probability that the census report
on Friday will show relatively large gin
nings. A rumor from Memphis of 6,800.-
000 bales is considered a bearish prospect
for this week. Its effect, however, may
be counteracted by the frost conditions
over Sunday, which should be clearly seen
on the map by Friday. Spot advices from
Texas say that the basis for good grades
is advancing under a general demand for
good cotton. Our market advanced about
12 points during the first hour, but eased
off later on a bearish advice from one of
the spot houses In New York, and the
latest ginning rumor from Memphis say
ing that the national ginners find ginnings
October 18, 6,800,000 and make Texas crop
estimate of 5,000,000.

Os the Fleecy Staple I
NEW YORK, Oct. 22.—Carpenter, Bag
-BL>t & Co.; Mr. S. 'l>ite says: "I think
there is a general disposition to overesti
mate the crop in the western part of the
belt, particularly Texas and Arkansas on
account of very heavy movement, but 4he
early maturing of this late crop and the
fact that cotton opened so general all at
once in central, southern and south
western Texas, southern part of the gulf
states, lias made ginning heavy and the
movement large, so 1 think this ginners'
report on October 25. showing amount
ginned up to the 18th, will be from 52 to
54 per cent of the crop. The average
percentage of amount ginned up t_> Octo
ber 12 for four previous years Is 49.9 per
cent.
"This is since the extensive farming
has been more in vogue, and since the
planters have resorted to putting in an
early maturing kind of cotton in order to
tight the boll weevil, which is most de
structive late in the season.
"We may have some lower prices, but
situation is growing more bullish. Good
grades are oversold and the New York fu
ture market is by far too cheap.
"I am a strong advocate of the long side
buying cotton conservatively around 10
©lO'ic xvith idea of buying more in case
it <jown below these values."
The ring crowd covered today with large
spot brokers good buyers during the entire
day. The market was bought on unset
tled colder weather with probable light
frost in north Mississippi.
Helnekeln and Volesgesang cable: "Neill
expected Thursday with 14% minimum;
Manchester reports bleachers short time
soon, owing to the Balkan trouble stop
ping deliveries.”
Thompson, Towle & Co. sold about 25.-
000 bales on the decline, which was bought
by Schill, Mitchell, Royce, Hicks and ring
generally.
McFadden, Geer and others who were
early buyers today sold market off at
noon, which was said to be on bearish
cables and Cordlll's report on Texas, also
National Ginners.
Beer. Cowell & Co.. Liverpool, cable:
"India expects larger crop this year.”
The best buying today seemed to come
from Parrott, Mitchell, Wilson, Schill and
Riordan. The selling came mostly from
Schill, Watkins, Royce and Martin.
"Dallas wires: "Texas, south and south
west, cloudy, cooler; balance generally
clear; 46 degrees at I’alas, 28 at Amarillo,
38 at Hillsboro and Sherman; no frost re
ported. Oklahoma generally clear; no
frost reported; 40 at Oklahoma City; 50 at

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 22.—Hayward &
Clark; The weather map shows fair in
northwestern quarter, 28 at Amarillo,
Texas, and cloudy with general rains in
central and eastern states which are un
favorable and will delay picking of cot
ton and damage the grade: Indications
are for clearing and colder in the north
central belt with rising temperatures in
the northwestern quarters; continued
rainy weather in Alabama and the At
lantic states.
The map showed the severest cold wave
formation of the season in the northwest
and looks like the cold wave will start to
move on the belt about FYlday.
Liverpool cables: "Manchester reports
poor business today.”
The National Ginners’ estimates the to
tal ginned bales at 6,900,000 and gives
Texas an estimate of 5,000,000 bales.
Texas, heavy frost reported over entire
Panhandle.
The New Orleans Tiines-Democrat says:
Various men explain the steadiness of the
the future contract market in various
ways, but unbiased analysis seem to in
dicate that a further good cleaning out Is
due before the hope and the expectation
of the bears can be realized. As a mat
ter of fact most everybody is bearish,
shorts are far more in evidence than
longs and a majority of both talent and
trade is looking for a dip to 10c.
Under the circumstances bearishly dis
posed operators are delaying, if -not de
feating. their own end by the magnitude
of their numbers. Meanwhile, reported
frost scares, record-breaking spinners'
takings, favorable reports from Manches
ter and evidence tending to show that the
continental mills are better engaged than
some of the trade has been led to believe,
have contributed support in the face of
an enormous movement, a very large sup
ply and a disposition among spot markets
to sink lower and lower.

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, and other sections where
feeders are obtained.
Quotations on cotton seed meal and
hulls are reasonable, and it is expected
that stock mon 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 iambs, slow
on common kinds.
H 'g market continues strong with lib
eral supply; quality of this week's run has
been the best of the season, and extreme
high prices for all fresh pork cuts has
improved tile demand for light butcher
pigs.

Irregular and Inactive Market
Results From Liquidation and
Conservatives’ Tactics.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK. Oct. 22. Irregularity
prevailed in the stock market at the open
ing today. A better tone, however, was
reflected from the foreign markets. The
best gain was made by Lehigh Valley,
which rose 1 point to 176%, but later this
stock sold off %. Southern Pacific was
also purchased in a professional move
ment. advancing %. (tnited States Steel
common, after opening % up, advanced %
additional. Canadian Pacific started off at
263, a loss of % over yesterday's final.
Later it went to 264%.
Amalgamated Copper was unchanged,
but American Smelting lost %. I'nion
Pacific and Erie each rose %. Missouri
Pacific rose %.
The curb market was easy.
There was less pressure on Americans
in London.
A firm tone was shown in the leading
railroads and industrials in the late fore
noon. Trading in the copper stocks was
dull. Price movements generally were
confined within a narrow range.
Business dwindled to an extremely
small volume in tlie last hour and price
changes were confined to a small frac
tional range. About the only Interest
shown in any issue was that attracted to
Chino Copper, which advanced about 2
points. The usually active railroads and
industriasl, were neglected
Stocks closed irregular; government
bonds steady; others steady.

CHICAGO, Oct. 22. Wheat was up 1®
- I%e this morning on the report that the
Greek fleet has blockaded the Dardanelles,
| allowing 24 hours for the departure ot
[ neutrals. The marines have captured the
j Island of Lennos, the key to the Black sea.
I Breadstuff's from the Russian ports are
. obliged to come through the Dardanelles,
anil in case tiny are closed for any length
I of time it will necessitate importing na
( tions looking elsewhere than Russia and
i the Danube for part of their suplies.
1 Northwestern cars, as well as those at
innipeg were largely in excess of a year
ago ami Minneapolis stocks increased
6J5.000 bushels so far this week.
Corn was up %<■ and strong on the cov
ering by shorts and in sympathy with
wheat Oats were %@%c better, along
with corn.
Hog products were fractional)- lower
j with a 10® 15c decline in hogs at the

Wheat closed with gains of % to %c,
I and while the best prices were not fully
I held, the undercurrent was one of great

I peclally the shorts, and there was consld

j at 45 boat loads at the seaboard and out
ports, and 55,000 bushels were sold here to
interior millers. The Armour Grain Com
pany led in the buying in wheat toward
th*' close, while the selling was largely by
tlie big commission concerns in the trade.
Tite fori ign news was still of a character
to unsettle tlie entile breadstuffs situa

Corn closed with gains of % to %c and
oats were fractionally higher to un
