bullish feeling developed in the To-
cal pit and outside buying orders made
their appearance. Prices responded to
this support readily and by 1920
O'Clock were back to the closing bids
of Saturday with the tone firm. The
crop movement was phenomenally
hight at nearly all points in the South
another cold wave was seen to have
made its appearance in the Northwest;
trade reports were very satisfactory
Spot markets South were holding their
own; export takings and clearances
were increasing rapidly; the New York
stock again lost 1000 bales; crop re-
ports were decidedly bullish and es-
Inmates for this seasons yield suffer
ed from further pruning. Speculation

Murphy & Co.'S stock Letter.

New York. Sept. 23.-Virtually moth
ing of importance transpired since the
close of business in the stock market
on Saturday afternoon, and the deal
ings being in this mornings governed
by the same general influence which
were effective then. London furnished
small, and irregular price changes for
Americans, and foreign houses traded
on both sides of the market there
when business opened. The initial
prices were generally farctionally
higher than Saturdays closing fig
ures, particularly for the local trac-
ton issues, in which group Manhattan
Railway, with an advance of over /
per cent. was conspicuous. In the
railroad list strong, and active fea-
lures were the leading issues, New
York Central, Atchison, Union Pacific,
and Texas Pacific. The United States
Steel issues were actively dealt IN, and
at somewhat lower prices than Sat-
urday's closing. Among specialties,
Amalgamated Copper was again ex-
ceedingly active. and scored a further
decline at the opening of business. AS
will be noted. trading was very well
diversified. The market developed
greater irregularity after movement
after the opening but trading was
maintained in very fair volume.

Murphy & Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York, Sept. 23.-The market this
morning opened at decline of / to 6
points. Early cables were a shade
easier, but the main obstacle to a bet
ter local market was the moderation
in temperature over the entire South
and fair weather in every station ex-
cepting a trace of rain in New Orlans.
The forecasts, however, was for cooler
weather in the South, with killing
frost in northwest being reported at
many stations, and the chances of this
extending to the cotton belt made sell
ers decidedly cautious. Trading was
dull, and prices recovered towards
noon, shorts showing nervousness, and
some good outside buying taking place
in fear of cold weather over tonight,
together with indications of $4,000 re-
ceipts at the ports, against $4,000 same
day last year. Cables were a shade
easier to-day. The small movement is
causing no little concern to buyers.
They contend that it is due to holding
back for higher prices. This is the
usual explanation of moderate receipts,
and it, would be well to place little con-
fidence in such talk. Experience has
shown that the current receipts for
some weeks is a good index of what
the crop is likely to be, except under

NEW ORLEANS COTTON FUTURES.
H. & ID. Beers Cotton Letter.

New Orleans, Sept. 23.-The contin-
ued unsatisfactory textile conditions in
Europe combined to large American
spot offerings caused the easiness in
Liverpool Our market, however, only
opened / to lower and Immediately
advanced to 8 shortly after on fears
of colder weather in the northwestern
section of the belt. Receipts were
moderate owing to the restricted de-
nand, yet they nevertheless deferred
short selling speculatively. The
official weather prediction was for
cooler weather in the northwestern
portion of the cotton district, while
elsewhere no material change in tenn
perature will take place. When this
was disseminated and the easiness
prevalent in spots became known
realizing and stop-orders quickly oc-
casioned a break of IL from the top,
making the net loss on the day to
points. 1t was thought by number
of operators that a large short spot
interest for September shipment had to
be liquidated. From the information
we gather the September engagements
are small and the probabilities are
that many who have bought on that
theory will find it hard matter to dis
pose of their holdings except at con-
SESSIONS. SpinnerS evidence no diSpo-
sition to buy and show no anxiety,
claiming that present values are pro-
hibitive. Considering the unsatisfac-
tory textile trade conditions prevalent
in Europe Mexican advices state trade
is bad and the stock of cotton goods
is heavy. Referring to trade in our
country Northern spinners take a
gloomy view of the situation, and so
far are pursuing the same hand-to-
mouth policy as European spinners
TheAnoderate movement has prevented
short selling, still the world knows it
Is not due to scarcity of supply in
the interior but is cauSed by a re-
stricted demand and holding back for
higher prices. From the existing flu
lures it looks as if it will require con-
slant buying to maintain the present
level unless a marked improvement
in the demand for spots sets in shortly.

New York, Sept. 2S.-Offerings from
the South brought lower Liverpool ad-
vices again this morning, but our mar
Ket quickly received the decline at the
opening. The covering of some cotton
SOLD on the last bureau report absorb
ed the lots for sale at the opening. The
movement is so light as compared with
the movement of last season that there
is no disposition to look for any de-
cine, notwithstanding the weakness
ABROAD or the lack of demand. Trans
actions are upon a limited scale and
speculation is not a factor. The entire
trade are following a most conserva-
tive policy with the tendency to believe
the foreign spinner will have to buy
before long. From his takings so far
his consumption must be over estimat-
ed or he would have to stop for lack
of cotton.

COTTON.

Spot cotton was not in large demand
day, though there were scattering
sales throughout the day. Transac-
tons were SAL. The movement shows
little improvement as compared with
last season and also the season before
last, when the receipts on this day run
ahead of 10000. To-day the receipts
were 4,705. A moderate demand was
reported in the f. o. b. branch. For
basis good mddling the opening was
from to SIC, and toward the closing
to Lice was about the prevailing
prices. Fully good middling was
around S1s to 3-16c. The offerings
were fairly free. Cotton futures at
New York closed steady 10 to Is points
lower.

quotations at the close of the market

Amalgamated Copper CoIIapses and
Market Closes Weak.


Market Closes Weak.
New York. Sept. 23-Amalgamated
Copper fell 81 below the final price of
Saturday late in the day to-day, and
after 2-point rally on covering by
room shorts, was running off rapidly
again before the close, the last price
showing a net loss of tx following the
So loss of Saturday. Anaconda, the
only one of the controlled companies
dealt in on the exchange, fell an ex-
treme 81 and lost So net. This COM
prised most of the market for the day.
There was some early resistance in a
few railroad stocks. but it was aban-
doned in face of the persistent and
heavy liquidation in Amalgamated
Copper and the whole market turned
weak. The net losses run between
and over 2 points in quite an extended
list of important stocks.
Such a violent decline as that of
Amalgamated Copper is bound to affect
the stock market by sympathy, what
ever the conditions elsewhere. The
Amalgamated Copper movement gain
ed in influence by reason of collateral
interferences drawn from it by specu-
lators. Although a highly manipula-
tive speciality, the stock has been more
favorably regarded than some other
industrials by reason of the influential
character of the control of the COM
pany. The reduction in the dividend
and the collapse in the price have led
to flying rumors of shortcomings in
management and finances of the same
character recently disclosed by several
of the minor industrial companies.
The effect was to engender distrust
of all the industrials and their blind
pool methods. Also, the reduction of
the Amalgamated dividend following
upon the conservative refusal by part
ly identical interests to advance the
st. Paul dividend was taken as a broad
indication of the indispostion of Stan

York and from the South. This seems
to have been the factor in depressing
values, for crop accounts were, on the
whole, bullish. 1t is claimed there is
no Improvement in conditions in Texas,
while in the Carolinas reports point to
deterioration. The movement con-
tinues light, but it is claimed this is
due to the holding-bac policy which
spinners presume is for an effect upon
the market, and not an indication of
a short yield. Later on buyers look
for a flood of receipts at the ports as
a result of the holding back, which, it
is presumed, will affect the market I'M
favorably. At Savannah the spot de-
mand was moderate, with fairly good
transactions reported. A fair demand
also prevailed in the f. o. b. market,

were limited.
