Cotton

New York, October 19,-The cotton
market opened easy, with prices 3 to G
points lower under active selling to
liquidate for short account and in
hedge against spot purchases in the
south. Following the call the market
was very feverish and irregular, with
the tendency downward in the absence
of aggressive buying for new accounts.
Heavy port receipts and surprisingly
weak Liverpool cables were responsible
for the early selling movement. Other
news averaging up bullishly, frost
again appeared over the eastern belt
and lower temperatures were shown on
the chart for the middle west. The
weekly crop weather review OF The
Chronicle again f~orshadowd a short
crop. Nevertheless, there were evil
dences hat the market was not broad
enough to absorb the offerings adopted
by spot cotton interests for hedging

I regreat to note the death of the
infant son of Mr.. and. Mrs. B. +.
Num-. The little fellow had been sick
only a short while and his sudden
death comes as a severe blow to his
parents.
This has been a busy week for the
cotton people of Wilson. Farmers have
taken advantage OF the high prices and
nave rushed their crop on the market.
Prices have not been lowered by the
amount put on the market. There has
been quite a little cotton sold here from
the adjoining counties Farmers have
seen that prices were higher here than
on the surrounding markets. and for
this reason Wilson has gained consid-
cradle trade from new territory.

new York Stock Market

New York, October 19.-There seemed
to be a pause in the large operations
in Northern Pacific preferred that have
given character to the stock market
for two days past, and the professional
traders made uncertain work with the
stock in the absence of assured leader
ship. The stock opened unchanged and
advanced a point, dipped W points
and f1~uctuated d~oubtfully- This unset
tied the whole market and semi-stag-
nation settled over the dealings. Anal
gamated Copper was an exception and
was strong and active throughout,
with only occasional slight reac-
tons. The buying was concen-
trated in character, and was attribut-
ed ~ Boston account, supposed to be
covering by shorts. There was no news
to accoun for the movement, beyond
the insistence by Copper interests that
the company's stocks on hand were not
unduly large. Sugar and Peoples Gas
showed some sympathy in the late
dealings.
~Amalgamated Copper rose 3 points
and closed within a shade of the best.
This stock held the market, against
the disappointment of the increase in
bank loans revealed By the weekly
statement. 1t is confidently assumed
that this is due to r~e-borrowing Incl
dent to pay off sterling loans, which
has kept the exchange market firm all
the week, in spite Of largely increased
supplies of cotton and wheat bills.
A further withdrawal of gold for
Berlin from the Bank OF England to-
day indicates a continuance of the con-
dition of hardness in foreign money
markets, which has been responsible
for enforcing this paying of of ster-
ling loans. The market closed irregu-
lar and dull. Railroad bonds and in
vestment securities generally have been
in improved demand and have risen in
price. United States 3s advanced u
per cent. over the closing caI OF last
week.
