COTTON FUTURES.
The Market Closes Very Steady to
10 Points Higher.

The Market Closes Very steady 7 to
10 Points Higher.
New York, Oct 1.-THE market for
cotton futures opened quiet and firm
with prices to II points higher and
continued to improve during the NEXT
fifteen minutes on active general buy
ing led by the bears. Wall street
Europe, the South, the West the spin.
ners and room bulls bought large lines
OF near and winter months, basing this
demand on strong English cables and
frost reports from pretty much all of
the northern section of the central and
western belt. Included in early buy
ing were large purchases for the ac-
count of spot dealers south who had
hedged here against holdings of cot
ton, covering these hedges after having
sold enormous amounts to exporters
and domestic spinners. The frost re-
port of government origin included
Northern Texas, Indian Territory, Ok
lahoma, Missouri, Tennessee, Northern
Mississippi and Northern Louisiana.
This, with a forecast from Washing
ton for frosts over Northern Georgia,
Western North Carolina, South Caro-
lima and Tennessee, greatly alarmed
the bears and caused spinners to make
quick turns for cotton with which to
spin cloth for delivery in December
and January, latter sales having been
made last month. Small port and in
terror receipts, crop damage accounts,
smaller offerings of spot cotton
throughout the South and good ac-
counts from spinning centres kept the
local market firm all the late forenoon
and during the afternoon. At most
fluctuations did not exceed points, with
December leading the rise. Room trad
ers took profit near midday, but once
more went long at the last half hour.
The close was very steady, with prices
net to 10 points higher. Total sales
were estimated at 25O,O0O bales, proba-
bly, the largest single days business
thus far this season.

New York. Oct. IA cold wave
passed over Western Texas and the

perature of 80 degrees and killing
frost. Warmer weather is to follow
this cold wave. In answer to this cold
wave and the strength of the Liverpool

at sharp advance, which was nam
tanned to the close. Our own market
opened Arm and reached the highest
prices touched on this advance on the
publication of the low temperatures.
The feeling in favor Of the market
grows with the strength Of the stats

Receipts are light as compared with

The frmer tendency OF the cotton
.rl,ats to-day following the bulge in
no+ton futures at New York was the
soot,ra in local trade circles. The
.t~eneth impaired by the rise in flu
.,ras was felt throughout the circle OF
tradine Joints by corresponding adj
ronces While exporters executed or
aors during the early hours when it
,.okad like New York might climb to
dizzv nights the demand from them
nosed later, and the closing was firm,
bnt with the prices asked above the
limits.
The futures market opened to IL
,oints I'D. and closed at a net advance
of 70 10 points. The impetus the mar
rat received was largely due to the
government forecasts for frost over
nrAttv much the entire of the cotton
country. This naturally created alarm
among shorts, and also among spin
ners in need of the actual stuff, and
demand followed that carried prices
inward at a rapid rate. Savannah
snots closed firm at an advance of 1sc.
Cation for shipment through this port
was also in fair demand, though most
of the trading was done during the
eariv hours, when exporters seemed
ANXIOUS to fill orders, and interior hold
ers had not run their ideas Of values
too high. Sales of basis good middlng
for f. O. b. shipment were freely made
around s Sic to Sasc.

The spot cotton market closed firm
to-day, with the demand fair from all
sources. Sales of 1870 were reported.
The receipts We're 1924, against 1857
last year, and 1904 year before last.
The rise in futures at New York, and
the generally improved demand during
the early hours, caused an advance in
spots Savannah is up &c on all
grades. Cotton for through shipment
ruled firm with a decidedly advancing
tendency in response to the better feel
ing that prevailed in the country. The
usual restricting of offerings, except at
prices out of the reach of exporters,
was shown by the responses from all
sections. New York rose to IL points
at the opening. While sales were made
on the bulge the demand lessened later,
and towards the close exporters were
bidding less and holders asking more
than during the forenoon. Fully good
middling was currently quoted around
7-16c to SIC, and basis good middling
5-l6c to SIC. Cotton futures at New
York closed very steady to 10 points
higher

THE MISSISSIPPI pALLBY'S
GROWTH.

Globe Democrat: The appearance
Of New Orleans in the second place
among the exporting points Of the
United States is fact of especial in
terest to the Mississippi valley. New
York, OF course, is far in the lead in
both exports and imports, but New
Orleans has now taken the second
place as an exporting point among
this country g ports. From the fig
ures already at hand it looks as if
the exports at New Orleans in the
fiscal year which has just ended
would amount to s145, ,Oo0, 900 or $780,
100000, while Boston will probably
be $40 900, 900 or $50, 900, 900 less.
New Orleans ascendancy among
the ports outside of that of New York
reflects the productive and CONNER
cial growth of the Mississippi valley.
At the outset, of course, most of the
products of the region west of the
Alleghanies which reached the out
side world went by way of the Miss
issippi and the Gulf of Mexico. New
Orleans, which was the twelfth city
oflthe United States in 1870, was the
ninth in 1900, the seventh in 1910, the
fifth in 1920 and 1880 and the third in
1910. The growth in the population
of the region between the Alleghan-
les and the Rocky Mountains was the
cause of this increase in the popula-
ton of New Orleans, its trade grow
ingi also in large proportion in the
same time through the vast expan-
zion in the-narmber of steamboats, on
the Mississippi, the Ohin, the Mis-
souri, and the rest of iLs tributaries,
most of the products of the valley
finding their way to the Eastern
states as well as Europe by the Miss
issippi river.
After 1910 there was steady de-
crease in the relative rank OF New
Orleans. 1t had dropped TO fifth
place among the cities in 1880, to 9Th
in 1860, to 9th in 1870, to 10th in
1880 and to 18th in 1890 and 1900.
The cause of its decline was, primar-
lily, the appearance Of the railroads
west of the Alleghanies. After 1910
the railroads began to abolish the
mountains as barriers to the commu-
nication of the Atlantic slope and
the Mississippi valley, and took a
gradually increasing amount of the
trade which along to that time had
gone through the Mississippi and the
Gulf of Mexico, The turn to the old
conditions has come again, how
ever. The commerce of the Miss
issippi, after long period of decline,
is again on the increase at st. Louis,
Memphis, New Orleans and other
points. The railroads are still as
busy as ever, but from this time ON
ward the rivers OF the West, espec
tally the great arterial waterway OF
the country, will carry to the mar
kets OF the East, as well as to Eu-
rope and Asia, steadily Increasing
share of the products of the West.

While courape e is al ways associated

While courage e is always associated
with big broad shouldered man, it
is likely to be manifested in the meek
est of persons. For instance while
twenty terrified men climbed up the
railing of the Randolph street viaduct
in Chicago and yelled impotently at
a dog with foam flecked jaws, groWl-
ing at them from below, fragile
little woman walked coolly to where
the brute was standing, grabbed it by
the neck, and threw it over the rail-
ing to the railroad tracks below. But
if the dog had been mouse, a good
story might have been spoiled.
