NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

New York, Oct THE stock mar
ket again to-day reflected effective
manipulation by powerful interests
that originated the recent upward
movement in prices. Having sold out
their lines these operators have in the
last day or two favored and contributed
toward a reaction with view pre-
sumably to establishing a level for a
further movement. The tactics en-
ployed included the circulation of a
variety Of distressing reports in the
last hour of trading and further mani
pulation of the call money market.
The dealings, aside from a few nota-
bile changes in the specialties were not
particularly interesting. Sugar was
hammered on continued unfavorable
trade forecasts, and finally, upon the
plausible report of impend-
ing competition with the American
Sugar refining company by powerful
commercial interests. The stock
yielded an extreme 21s per cent to
1917. Tobacco was exceptionally
strong and jumped 1A per cent to 68.
In the late dealing tobacco was consp1c-
uous by a drop to 66. The report OF
the check to the recent savage rate
cutting in the South foreshadowed by

liza Cent Decline.

New York, Oct. THE cotton mar
ket opened with prices 3 points lower
to 2 points higher; cables were better
than expected early and an advance of
4671O points followed the first call.
Later the market weakened under ru-
7nors of a 100000 bale crop es-
innate by Neill, and indications of
larger receipts at the ports. Liquida-
ton was active and the market broke
10013 points. The weakness was in
creased by reports of unsettled south
ern spot markets. The close was steady
at net decline of l to pc hts.
HUBBARD BROS. e. co.'s LETTER.
New York, Oct. 7.-(Spe .iaD-Lan-
cashire spinners are eviden ly ready to
replenish their stocks at about pre-
sent prices and their purch Uses to-day
have been the largest for many
months. but the influence of this buy
ing was counterbalanced by rumor
that Neill would issue a crop estimate
of 1900. 900 bales. This rumor caused
an easier feeling in Liverpool and our
market was expected to open lower
but buying orders from the South and
the continent absorbed the offerings,
advancing prices above last evening S
quotations. Liverpool, however, failed
to respond and selling orders from
that market quickly caused a decline.
The temper of the trade remains very
mixed, the near approach of the cleo
tions preventing many large pur-
chases, while crop advices and the
probable continuance of this sharp de-
mand from spinners prevents any de-
cline. Towards the close of business
the market rallied on a denial of the
rumor regarding Mr.. Neilfs estimate
and on buying for New Orleans ac-
count.
