COTTON IS SOLD FREELY ALL Grain Notes TREND OF STOCKS IS TO CO L By CHARLES W. STORM. NEW YORK, Aug. 14.—Many of the railroad shares were under pressure at the opening of the stock market to-day. The tone was heavy, although some Is sues made good rains. Texas Company continued to climb, beginning % up. Wabash lost 1 point, selling at 4%. Chesapeake and Ohio declined %. Ca nadian Pacific began % lower, but at the end of half an hour had recovered and was % above Wednesday’s Anal. Among the other losses were; Western Union. %; Reading, %; Steel common, %; Union Pacific, %; Amalgamated Copper, %; Mexican Petroleum %, and Atchi son %. Southern Pacific began % up, but lost it. At the end of 45 minutes, however, a better tone prevailed all the way round. American Telephone and Tele graph climbed %, while fractional gains were also scored by United States Rub ber common and Erie The curb was steady. Americans in London were firm Westinghouse was one of the strong est features of the late trading, crossing 69 for a net goin of more than a point on the day. Union Pacific was % above the noon price. Canadian Pacific was under pressure and deolined a point from the midday rang**. Texas Compa ny sold ofT on profit-taking. Southern Pacific also was lower. The tore was steady. The market closed heavy. Govern ments unchanged; other bonds strong. NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. At the Start Traders Were Timid, but Expert Promise of Rains in West Causes Drop, NEW YORK, Aug. 14.—Good cables and absence of rains over the Texas belt, except at one or two places, re sulted in the cotton market opening steady to-day and first prices ranged from 1 point off to 5 points higher than Wednesday’s final There was a little outside support, however, and the list being bolstered by buying from room shorts. This, coupled with the Government re port on supply and distribution, which placed the number of cotton hales con sumed during July at 486,246 running baits, as compared with 467,000 bales in June. The report was considered bullish, but failed to stimulate any buying of consequence and the market developed a sagging tendency after the call, based on active selling, which was encouraged by a New Orleans weather expert prediction of rains In the west ern belt within the next forty-eight nouse. Later the selling became gen eral and by noon the decline aggre gated 5 to 11 points from the Initial range. After the English market had re ported better cables than expected, price movement at the close showed a decline of 2 to 3% points from the previous close. Ring traders are persistent bears on the new crop positions, but they are not heavy sellers, especially of August Most of them seem to be waiting rains In the western belt before committing themselves to any great extent to the short side. But a world of cotton will fall upon the market If rains should come in the west One thing that pre vents any material decline In prices 1: that the feeling among the average trailer is to the effect that the Clarke anti-option bill will be killed and that nothing along that line will be done at the present session of Congress. During the afternoon session the mar ket ruled ra.her dull and prices fluctu ated within a very moderate range The trade wt.s less aggressive and at. the close the market was steady with price* at a net decline of 2 to 7 points from the closing quotations of Wednes day.

Precipita tion Is shown In Central and South Texas and the Gulf districts and show ers In Tennessee and the Atlantlcs. Cooler weather in North Texas and Ok lahoma. Indications are for unsettled weather in the western half of the belt with good indication* ror more general rains in the next forty-eight hours. Partly cloudy and scattered showers in the eastern half of the belt. First trades here were at a decline 2 points, and the market soon weaken to 10.96 for October on numerous pri- vate reports of rain this morning, prln cipally from South Central and South Texas points. Continued unfavorable views from Manchester contributed to the weakness. An official forecast of fair weather for Texas checked selling pressure during the afternoon session, but j>rices were held at the low point.
