Spinners Behind With Orders/
Causing Spot interests to
Become Heavy Buyers.
XLu \ORK. Oct. 24. Light frosts ov.-r
I tile eastern belt last night caused the cot
ton market to open 2 tu 5 points higher
Cables were also slightly better
j Gian uue. After the call the list ruled 5
points above last night’s final. Wall
,• ■ JTet bought little while Liverpool sold ;
futures and spot in Liverpool wen
bare I y steady.
I hroughout the early* session trading
j light, but rhe market ruled verv
;<W'dy with very little cotton b-r sale, i
I ne» buying seemed to come from larger
• spot interests who absorbed the offer-
j Uigs and there u.is some buying by Wall;
■ rhe selling seemed to come !
, ehleltj from the South ami the Waldorf’
'•roA’.d. Prices were firmly maintained Ini
| close range of the opening. The large
, anjount oi cotton that has been sold
’ during rhe past few days has been ab- I
I large spot houses. It is be-
lieved that the ring operators here are’
i short, but thex believe the heavy pressure
i"t spois will cause a depression in prices.
However, spinners are short and have
isold goods ahead; It is more than likely
■ prices will be sustained and no serious de
cline will predominate at present.
I airing the afternoon trading a precipi
tant short covering wave prevailed which
stimulated the market and prices rallied
’» to i points in most active positions from
the initial figures. This aggressiveness
was said to been caused by the frost warn
ing predicted over the larger portion of
the eastern belt for tonight. However,
ibe market fails to respond to good buy
s mg as the consensus of opinion is that
; pinners will show figures around 7,000,000
bales and the amount will be about 54 per ;
cent of the crop.
At the (dose the market was barely j
steady with prices showing a net gain of I
> to 10 points from the dual quotations!
of Wednesday.

X- Co.; .A good demand was reported
i today for export and Eastern and South
ern mills. McFadden reported a good
buyer of spots in South at full prices.
Shorts were good buyers today, but their
• aggressiveness did not have any stinmlat
| mg effect upon the market, as the larger
majority of trailers anticipate a very bear
ish bureau report tomorrow, with the ex
pectation in view that figures will be
around 7,000.000 hales.
There need be no fear of a break in this
market as long as rrade continues to take
t n ® oftorlngs as it has for some time past.
I rading was very light during the morn
ing session todaj, but the market was
very steady throughout the day, with lit
tle coton for sale. The ring s*ruwd does
not seem inclined to hammer, as has been
the case for the last for weeks.
Jie.ntE. Schill, Dick Bros, and Mitchell
■ were the principal buyers of cotton to
day.
Schley. Hartcorn. Royce. Ranlett, Rice
and Gifford were buyers after the
call; Rothschild. Hubbard. Parrott, Rior

were best sellers. The market was very
{steady, with offerings small throughout
the day.

on barometer lines sret.5 r et. Indications
are for increasing cloudiness and unset

western half of Louisiana. Generally fair
and continued cold in eastern half of the

Light frost Is predicted for tonight in

of the Carolinas and Georgia.
The New Orleans Times-Democrat says:
1 util recently the cotton market, unaided
■by good demand, has held its own in
the face of war in Europe, accumulating
| stocks and general bearish, sentiment
i among talent and trade. Now that frosts
have actually invaded the belt and the
; period of genuine cold weather is near at
i hand and spot demand is more in evi-
• derce, with offerings less free, the neutral
I faction among the talent finds the bear
ish arguments less and less convincing.
'I i is does not necessarily mean that those
■ tiaders who are opposed to the bearish
view believe the market is on the eve of
I a substantial advance, but it does mean
| that the talent is beginning to find some
merit In the bullish claims than seemed
apparent a short while ago. In tills con
nection, it should be remembered that
large yields are promised, not only in
America, but in India and Egypt as well,
and no real scarcity of supply in general
•is expected by anybody. But good grade
[ cotton will likely bo in relatively small
i supply because of the damage done by
I rains in the South during the harvesting
; season, and the trade has not forgotten
1 that the very hgih premium demanded for
th<‘ more desirable sorts went a very
long way in support of the market twu
j years ago.

iN GRAIN ON FOREIGN NEWS
i
CHICAGO, Oct. 24.—The Inter-Ocean
says: Technically the wheat market last
i nigh $ was looked upon as slightly over
bought from a local standpoint. There
has been a material reduction in the
I short interest and a disposition on the
part of 'nears is to play the short side
’with caution and with smaller line he
| cause of the uneasiness regarding the
foreign situation and fears of fresh com-
■ plications developing at any time. The
. bulls are expecting a reaction unless for-
I eign news comes decidedly bullish. A ma
jority of corn traders look upon the mar
ket as weather proposition with light re
ceipts for a time. The market appears to
be long. One of the peculiar features of
the oats trade was that despite the sales
of 715,000 bushels fur shipment, cash
houses were the best sellers of December
yesterday and those who were in the pit
all day said they were unable to dis
cover any big export buying business.
