The weeks market has been sub- Jected to a mixture of influences in the early part Foreigners were sellers of American securities account of war-like preparations at home, while on this side uncertainty of political outcomes and dis solution of traffic associations had a de- pressing effect. Notwithstanding these conditions the entire list closes from 1sc to per cent over last Saturdays prices, with Louisville and Nashville most promi- nent, regardless of the fact that London sold this stock early in the week. The half days business today necessarily shows anti-election caution and dullness, but prices closed at the best figures In trusts an extreme speculative element, fluctuations as usual were such as to please both elements. Tobacco started by declining points and then advancing points from lowest. Sugar was moderate and 1uctuated less than 1 per cent. Pre- dictions before elections are dangerous, but the least that can be said is prices are well sustained.

Jackson 6 Co.'s Grain Letter

Birmingham, November 5.--Bear senti- ment was again encouraged in the wheat pit at the opening today. There was some what of decline at Liverpool in the price, which, however, traders were inclined to attribute to the very bearish Russian crop report sent out late yesterday rather than to any betterment in the political situa tion. The export demand has nearly entirely dis appeared, and New York wired that for eigncrs were disposed to sell the December options freely. Traders were bearish and forced the market below puts price. There was some buying against puts, but as out side markets were all lower the buying seemingly had no effect.
 Corn-Lower cables; receipts above the estimates forced corn to lower level. Longs were moderate sellers, but the wet weather prevalent throughout the corn belt offset this and subsequently, prices held fairly steady. Trading in oats was indiffer- ent and prices ruled easy. moving sympa- thetically with other gains

Cotton Letter

Birmingham, November 5.-Liverpool was about 52c lower for futures, with spot sales 5000 at unchanged prices. Opening prices here were at yesterdays closing and next sales were at one point lower for almost every option. Reported port receipts were 61 00O vs. 66 900 last year, which caused little covering, and prices recovered about 2 points from the lowest. The total visible supply is 2,57S,529 vs. 2719,49 There is dis position to pick up cotton at these prices, and conservative houses are advising pur- chases on scales, arguing that cotton must have at least speculative advance short ly.
