otton Letter

By Leased Wire to T. G. Hewlett, Agent
 Birmingham, October 15.-Today's market responded to the early rumors of heavy frosts in the extreme southern portion of the country but could not stem the heavy realizinig sales which followed the better prices and values and receded to about last Saturdays figures, the close being even lower than that of a week ago. Retrospect ing, we do not see how prices can ultimate ly remain at these values. The only com parison is with fifty-five years ago, when the country was undergoing the effects of panic while today we not only are in the midst of prosperity, but we predict that the ensuing year will find us on the pima cle of the most prosperous period this country has ever enjoyed. Cheap prices
 together with easy financial conditions, will make heavy consumption of textiles and we cannot look at the prevailing price for cotton as anything but an unusually good opportunitY for investment.

drought in Australia and Great Britain and on the continent is causing the farm CTS much uneasiness We estimate the az gregate crop as the smallest for seven years and believe that when the American farmer realizes this fact that the heavy receipts which are depressing prices will be curtailed and instead of the usual over loading of northwestern marFets we shall see small and conservative shipments. The northwest is doing a splendid flour busi- ness, and the wheat exports for the past two weeks has been enormous. However, for the present. we are inclined to think that the farmers will persist in their rush ing of wheat to market and we rather an ticipate lower prices.

Financial.

New York. October 15.-The Evening Pests financial cablegram says:
 The stock markets here were quiet today with an improvement led from Paris. Americans were exceptionally dull on the New York lead, but the absence of sales by that market caused a favorable dispo- sition here.
 There is much uncertainty as to whether New York is buying gold or not. Half of the press, for example, says this morning that New York bought yesterdays gold arrival from the Cape, while the other half says that Berlin bought it. In the best quarters I gather that New York is not buying for the moment.

Paine. Murp,,v & Co.'S Stock Letter

Birmingham, October 15.-The week shows an uneven close compared with last Saturday. The Changers are about the same, while Sugar is per cent. higher, with Tobacco per cent. lower and other Industrials ranging from 1 to per cent. lower. London was a seller today again, and the tone of our market Is unfavorable to higher prices. The bulish sentiment of Thursday seemed to have almost entirely disappeared. One exception to the general tendency was Southern preferred, which, on expectation of dividend. caused a strong market Northwest broke on rumor of unfavorable earnings and an attack by a financial paper on it's relative value as compared with the other Grangers. Rub Der has been unfavorably affected by the contemplated issue of nearly $S 900 more stock to take up the liabilities of the Bos- ton Rubber company. On the whole the close of the week is disappointing to the believers in ultimately higher prices. The principal dsturber being the election fore cast, which are affected by wagers which time and again have been proven false prophets. We advise purchases of good se- curities. s
