A BIG CORNER LOT
The secret of a successful real estate venture is to obtain a
'urge amount of frontage. Then, when your land increases in
value so much per front foot it amounts to something.
We are offering the corner of Washington and Fair streets.
192-1-2x227, for $30,000. Phis figures up about $155 a front
foot. An increase in value of SSO a foot would amount to nearly
SIO,OOO profit—a substantial sum of money.
Is such an increase to be expected? Trinity church paid
*3lO a foot for the corner of W ashington and Trinity.
The property we offer is unencumbered, and we can make
easy terms. It is one of those rare opportunities that occasional
ly confront a buyer.

SELLING CAUSES
COTTON DECLINE
Speculators Unload Holdings
and Market Lacks Support
to Maintain Prices.
23.—There was a
marked activity in the. cotton market
at the opening today, first prices being
unchanged to 8 points lower. Wall Street
J ras *. ono of the sellers, although
southern houses disposed of considerable
cotton on the strength of the weather
map. After the call there was a further
decline of 3 to 4 points.
The larger spot interests were the prin
cipal buyers during the forenoon trading
and continued their aggressiveness
throughout the day. The selling was of a
general character, coming from the specu
lators and Wall Street houses, also the
south was said to have been a good
seller. The market was given poor sup
port by the bulls, who are looking for a
bearish bureau report Friday on ginned
bales as of October IS. This report is
?n/l®U!! or v Cas t to show figures close to
6.. 00 000 bales. As sentiment continues
bearish and business very light all day
and what buying was done was believed to
have come from the trade.
During the late trading the market was
stagnant and prices ranged .about 5 to 8
points tinder the initial quotations. The
market seems to be in a waiting attitude
and those who are inclined to the bull
side say it is too early to form a sub
stantial opinion, as the crop is still being
estimated to yield 13,000.000 to 15.500,000
bales and if any favorable war news or
unfavorable weather conditions prevails
sentiment could he changed.
At the close the market was steady,
with prices net unchanged to 5 points
below the closing quotations of Tuesday.

HAYWARD 4. CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 23.—Weather de
velopments over night were as expected.
The -old wave was not strong enough to
have much effect. The man shows gener
ally fair weather, except cloudy in the
southern half of Texas and the Atlantics.
General but lighter precipitation in the
eastern half of the belt, except heavier
rains in Tennessee an'd south Alabama.
No frost of consequence. Indications are
for generally fair and cooler weather in
the northeastern quarter of belt, increas
ing cloudiness and warmer elsewhere.
Our marKet eased in early trading on
absence of frost damage, but there was a
remarkably steady demand on all de
pressions and New York reported buy
ing by McFadden, which had the usual
bullish effect.
Otherwise there was no news and the
trading remained rather light. Better
spot demand takes care of the daily hedge
selling and speculative interest Is already
largely placed.
As the census report on Friday is ex
pected large—around 6,900,000. Bulls are
holding off and themarket is without
speculative support. Reliable Texas re
ports are to the effect that this census
report will represent at least 75 per cent
of lhe Texas crop.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24. —Following the
sharp break Just before the close yester
day, the stock market opened irregular
today, with further appearances of liqui
dation. In a few Instances, however, no
tably in Chino Copper and Southern Pa
cific, there were good rains. Chino sold
up to 47% within fifteen minutes after
the opening, a rise of %. Southern Pa
cific advanced %. Among hte other ini
tial losses were United States Steel com
mon %, American Smelting %, Atchison
%, Heading %, Canadian Pacific %. Erie
common opened unchanged, but later de
clined %.
Traders attributed the selling to the
Balkan situation and to the natural un
easiness which always precedes a national
election in this country. Predictions were
made In Wall Street that the present un
certainty will prevail for several weeks.
Amalgamated Coppeh opened % up, but
subsequently lost half of its rise.
