COTTON.
NEW YORK, Oct. 25. —The cotton mar
ket opened barely steady today with first
prices irregular, being 1 to 8 points lower
to net unchanged to 1 point point higher
than the close of Thursday. This decline
at the outset came In face of the govern
ment report on ginners’ report, which
came less than expected. The report
placed figures on ginned bales as of Oc
tober 18 ,at 6,838,841, against 7,758,621
bales last year and 5,423,628 bales the
year before. Within five minutes after
the opening a sudden short covering wave
prevailed, resulting in October jumping
from 10.25 to 10.41, with nothing between.
December rallied 15 points without ' a
pause, while other active positions ad
vanced 6 to 10 points over the opening.
Very little cotton was for sale.

GRAIN.
CHICAGO. Oct. 25. There was a weak
feeling in the wheat market this morn
ing and prices were %c to %c lower. The
decline in the Liverpool market and the
expected world’s shipments for Monday
wi.l be large, coupled with an increase
in the amount on ocean passage, wore all
against the price. Minneapolis and Du
luth stocks both showed heavy increases
for the wee):. The weather continues
clear and cold in the Northwest and per
fect for the moving of the crop. There
is little in the news to bring about any
important price changes.
Corn was a shade lower and dull, and
the oats market was almost at a stand
still, although the December was a lit
tle stronger.
Hog products were eosier and the vvl
. ume of business small.

COTTON GAINS ON
REPORT OFFOOST)
Spinners Behind With Orders. l
Causing Spot Interests to
Become Heavy Buyers.
NEW YORK. Oct. 24. Light frosts over
the eastern belt last night caused the cot
ton market to open 2 to 5 points higher
today. Cables were also slightly better
than due. After the call the list ruled 5
points above last night's final. Wall
Street bought little while Liverpool sold.
Futures and, spot in Liverpool were
barely steady.
Throughout the early session trading
was light, but the market ruled very
steady with very little cotton for sale.
The buying seemed to come from larger
spot interests who absorbed the offer
ings and there was some buying by Wall
Street. The selling seemed to come
chiefly from the South and the Waldorf
crowd. Prices were firmly maintained in
close range of the opening. The large
amount of cotton that has been sold
during the past few days has been ab
sorbed by large spot houses. It is be
lieved that the ring operators here are
short, but they believe the heavy’ pressure
of spots will cause a depression in prices.
However, spinners are short and have
sold goods ahead; it is more than likely
prices will be sustained and no serious de
cline will predominate at present.
During the afternoon trading a. precipi
tant short covering wave prevailed which
stimulated the market and prices rallied
6 to 7 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,
the market falls to respond to good buy
ing as the consensus of opinion is that
ginners will show figures around 7,000,000
bales and the amount, will be about 54 per
cent of the crop.
At the close the market was barely
steady’ with prices showing a net gain of
7 to 10 points from the final quotations
of Wednesday.

HAYWARD A CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, oct. Il4.—The weather
map shows fair weather in the Atlantit s;
cloudy in the rest of the belt. No rain,
but light frost general over eastern belt.
Warmer in western half. Indications are
for generally fair and continued cold wav»
in the eastern states. Unsettled and rainy
weather coming on western and central
states. There is a strong cold wave form
ation in the northwest, but it has not yet
started to move.
Liverpool is steady on futures, but
quotes spots 4 points lower; sales 10,000.
bales. During the past month of compar
atively slow spot business and check to
business by political conditions niut'.i oi
the crop has been hedged by the sale of
futures and the contract markets appear
congested with short interest. This is
probably the reason of the present stub
bornness.
New York reports less desire this morn
ing to sell and spot houses again absorb
ing the selling. Our market opened at
about unchanged figures, but soon ad
vanced 10 points and ruled steady. There
is more trade demand and more spot
business now and, as more spot cotton
Is hedged with futures, this demand calls
for more buying back of hedges,
which speculation may at present feel
like satisfying, hence the probability of
a reaction in the contract markets while
this increased spot demand exists.

ing on Near Approach of Bal

tial losses were United States Steel com
mon %, American Smelting %, Atchison

IN GRAIN ON FOREIGN NEWS
CHICAGO. Oct. 24. The Inter-Ocean
says: Technically the wheat market last
night was looked upon as slightly over
bought from a local standpoint. There
has been a materia! reduction in the
short Interest and a disposition on the
part of bears is to play the short side
with caution and with smaller line- be
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
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 for 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.
