To their covering and free support by the hulls can be attributed the strong opening which was nt advances of from 19 to Zi points, n« enmpnred with the previous close.

The majority of opera tors seemed to think the thing was over done, but the bureau reports tomorrow nnd the thrent of another tropical storm In the gulf lessened the disposition of bears to put out fresh shorts lines. Brokers could not buy cotton fast enough on the open ing. An accumulation of buying orders from the country over Surnlny wns added to the buying of professionals, who were of the idea that nil bearish features were overbalanced b.v the wurnlng from weather bureau that another tropical storm wns threatening the gulf nnd the south eastern coast of tho 1’nlted States. The wenther map wns also unfavorable nnd re ports from the country were on the whole very discouraging. Around 9.90 for De cember much cotton wns sold short, but the market absorbed It well nnd at 16 points decline was nil that could be brought about, The highest prices of the morning were reached on the official statement that light frost oceiirred at Abilene. Tex., last night. Temperatures were too low over the belt, nnd this added to the uneasiness of shorts when they were able to get full return! from the wedther bureau. Some few tele grams were received today saying that the crop damage had been overestimated. It Is always natural for farmers to over-estimate crop calamities, nnd they have probably over-estlinnted this one. Miss Giles' report on condition added to this Impression, although It is not certain to whnt date her figure* relate.

New York, Oct. 1-Marshall, hpnde A Co.: The stock market may show some Irregu larity for a day or two, but we expect to see It do better the latter part of this week. While we may have a flurry the money sit uation is improved, but we recommend only recessions good rails. New York Financial Bureau: Special ty Improvement seems to us to be on the program this week, although the fore part should be Komewlmt irregular on ac count of the disbursements, and the trad ing position should not he nhandoued, but we ngnlu strongly commend to youv atten tion the wisdom of buying good stocks when weak, for the situation Is clearing, and we do not see any monetary disturb ances after the intensity of the crop de mand shall have worn off, so that a grad ually bettering market will be experienced. Judging from the present plans ns ascer tained by us. Money rates are likely to be n little stiff for a day or two, owing to the time it takes for the treasury relief to get to New York. The bank state ment, however, was good, nnd the next one should be good, so that the money troubles seem to us to bo gradually disap pearing. especially when we consider the gold Importations that come steadily. The ore deal Is expected to lie made public some time this week. This should stlm- 97 «| ulnto Interest lit the market, which Is In good tec hnical shape on account of the re moval of weak accounts bv the shaking out, nnd on nccount of the building up of n short Interest, which will, with professional sentiment, slightly be bearish ns it is, afford good support on the recessions. • AFTERJPENIIfG Many Shares Scored Ad vances During the First Hour’s Trading.

New York, Oct. 1.—Charles Hughe* went to Washington today with President Roosevelt when the president returned to the capital after hla summer nt Oyster Bay. More or less mystery was made of the meeting between the president and Mr. Hughes, which had not been an nounced beforehand. The first inti mation that any one had that the Re publican candidate for governor of New York Was going to confer with the president was when Mr. Hughes showed up in the Pennsylvania depot at Jersey City. The greeting between the two was extremely cordial. Mr. Roosevelt \In troduced Mr. Hughes to various mem bers of his party, (pciuding Mrs. Roosevelt. Then the pair sat down in the rear of the Mayflower, the presi dent’s private car, and l/3gan an ear nest talk.

For more than thirty years Mr. Brown was jury commissioner for Fulton county, which place he held at the time of his death. ' Mr. Brown Is survived by six chll dren, Walter R. Brown, C. M. Brown, W. S. Brown, Leonard W. Brown, Miss Cora Brown, Mrs. W. H. Chase and Lieutenant H. S. Brown, of the artillery service, of Baltimore. The funeral will be held at the resi dence Tuesday morning at 10 o’clock, conducted by Rev. John E. White, of the Second Baptist church, of which he was a member, and Rev. Dr. W. W. Landrum, of the First Baptist church. Clinton I. Brown, 78 years of age, father of Colonel Walter R. Brown, died at his home, 325 South Pryor street, Sunday night. Mr. Brown was born at Gainesville, Ga., ln 1828, and came to Atlanta in 1861. He was one ot the pioneers and was an Influential citizen In the up building of Atlanta. Mr. Brown, In partnership with G. W. Parrott, opened up Atlanta's first wholesale house, which was located on the spot now occupied by Atkins, Mc- Keldln & Brown.

As hss i»oeu ruily expected on the first day or the month, call money rates ruled uret* ty stiff, and Wall street borrowers were compelled to pay as high as 9 per cent for their loans. This more largely, per haps, than any other circumstance wns ac countable for the restraint upon the day’s speculative operations. But Inasmuch ns it is genera Qy believed that these high rates will last only a day or two, giving way when fuuds nre released from tne monthly settlements, the incident did not cause any selling of stocks.

STOCKS REVIEWED BY NEW YORK SUN New York, Oct. 1.—Tho Now York Sun says: "Tho stock market course last week, while nprvous nnd Irregular, was down ward. Out and out manipulation for the decline wns much in evidence, but undoubt edly a great deal of genuine liquidation occurred. It was snld that some of the largo western speculative houses threw < over a great portion of their holdings, nnd two or three of the prominent traders, men whose dealings nre, an a rule, much larger than Is commonly estimated, sold stocks with great freedom. Speaking broadly, the market showed the effect of those general Influences making for a decline that al ways present themselves after n long con tinued rise In values when, for various reasons, financial powers of the first rank cease buying nnd leave the market to it self. Of course, speculation for the rls# hnd to contend, In addition to the ptSirsU- iug feeling of uncertainty over the money situation, with two hew adverse develop ments. the capture of the Democrat party by a Socialist candidate for governor, and the growing probability that our govern ment would l>« compelled to make an arm ed Intervention In Cuba. The belief Is Im mensely strong In the financial community that Mr. Ilearst will be beaten at the polls, yet It Is rightly liebl to be a serious mat ter from tho financial polut of view that a man of his views nnd alms nnd meth ods should huve 1>eeu enabled to attain such prominence and wield such power In the politics of the state and the country."
