STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Sept. 24.--After a stormy
day in the stock market, the closing.
was quiet. but with the undertone still
slightly unsettled. 1t was a day of
violent fluctuations and of many
changes in the course of prices. Twice
there was a dangerous break, which
threatened Decentralization, and twice
there was an effective recovery. Just
at the last there was some very large
selling by holders who seemed DESTROYS
OF taking advantage OF the vigorous
rally in force and who seemed yet TO
harbor doubts whether the storms Of
forced liquidation had spent their force.
But there Was undoubtedly a very gem

in prices, which ran from l to points
for the active leaders, was aggravated
by the unexpected news of President
Roosevelt's disability. The reports
given out from the Presidents train
served to reassure fears on that score.
There was a suspicion also that yes
terday's late heavy liquidation had
been due to some advance information
of the operation on the President. The
consequence was that prices recovered
pretty generally during the first hour.
The opening rate for call loans was
announced at Is per cent, and after a
momentary reaction to 10 per cent,

NEW ORLEANS COTTON MARKET.

New Orleans, Sept. 24.-Spot cotton
quotations unchanged.
The contract market to-day was al
together favorable to the short ele-
ment. On the first call under pressure
of heavy selling, prices fell off SOLO
points. The decline, while somewhat
rapid was broken; resulting from mild
upward fluctuations; the options of
room traders, and in no manner af-
fected the general temper of the mar
ket, which was notably pessimistic as
to prices. The continued heavy move
ment into sight is bearing heavily upon
the spirits of the bulls. The board
at the close showed a gain of points
on September, net losses of points on
October, on November and points
on the other positions.

COTTON FUTURES.

New York, Sept. 25.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady with prices I'M
changed to points lower this being
an Indifferent response to surprisingly
weak Liverpool cables and bearish for
eign private cables. But as Liverpool
continued to decline and as the stock
market gave signs of underlying weak
ness, selling orders came in freely and
soon had prices declining rapidly. A
bad jump in the price of money and
extreme weakness in the stock market
later, aggravated the weakness in cot
ton, and not until January had drop
ped to $3.50 and March to SAFE was
there change for the better. Trade
was active in feverish way with
commission houses and room longs ac-
tive sellers. Europe offered cotton here
and some pressure came from Chicago.
New Orleans, however, was a consist
ent buyer and the better judges of the
market here took on moderate lines
below S.75c for January. Wall street
sold comparatively little cotton to-
day, but was reported to have unload
ed a large line around top yesterday
In the afternoon there was a decided
change for the better in the market
on general buying and a lull in the
liquidation. This improvement was
due in part to rally in the stock
market and a tumble in the price of
money. Late crop reports were I'M
favorable and the impression was
quite general that weak long interests
had been shaken out. Wall street fur
nished goodly number of supporting
orders and business generally broaden
ed out again. The close was steady
with prices net 8 points higher to 4
points lower. Total sales futures were
estimated at 350,0C0 bales.

New York, Sept. 24.-The early cot
ton market was a tame affair, easing
off 2@4 points. Liverpool responded
to our lower tendency of yesterday
because of the construction put on the
weekly government report. The
weather map disclosed good rains at
Vicksburg, New Orleans and Corpus
Christi and less at Galveston and Lit
tie Rock. There was an idea that these
rains were helping the crop, and re-
tarding the movement, but after all
was little or next to nothing doing to
show that the yield will prove an aver
age one. In fact, it is only natural
that the crop should now be showing
an improving tendency after such re-
markably poor conditions and the rea-
sonable conclusion still is that the bet
torment does not signify a yield in eX-
cess of requirements. The port receipts
are only natural and that the under
lying feeling is favorable for a higher
market is evidenced by the very heavy
receipts which it will be noticed are
almost totally ignored. AS the morn
ing advanced the market developed
further weakness, owing to the tight
money in Wall street and fresh break
at Liverpool, which closed Z points
lower. Weak longs sold and the sup
port from bull leaders was feeble,
while the Southern buying was too
small to cut much figure. Port re-
ceipts, $4,000 bales, against $4,000 last
year.

New Orleans. Sept. 24.-Liverpool adj
vices were very discourag1ng, the
weakness there being due to cables
from this side reporting expected fall
ures of stock firms in New York and
heavy Continental selling. Our mar
ket however, Notwithstanding, opened
102 points higher, but subsequently
declined 10 points from the top on gem
eral realizing, superinduced by the
tightness of money in New York. After
the absorption of this cotton a better
feeling was established and values en-
HANGED 6@7 points from the bottom.
Near the close fresh selling again
caused a slight decline, making the net
loss points on all months, except Oc-
tober. which declined only points.

The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1902-09-25

The weakness in Liverpool was due to
the dear money market in New York
and sensational cables, stating that
many stock firms there were expected
to fail shortly. From what we can as
certain, while the New York money
market is strained temporarily, owing
to the movement of crops, there is
nothing in the situation to cause any
alarm, because it is a well-known fact
that these periods of tight money
transpire from time to time every
year. In the meanwhile much is be-
ing made of the financial problem to
depress values. The heavy damaging
rains in the valley states and Texas
are being lost sight of by those who
are being frightened by exaggerated
accounts of the New York situation.
Crop accounts on the whole are pessi-
mistic and 1t is claimed these beating
rains are daily reducing the outturn.
While breaks are to be anticipated, we
think purchases on any marked decline
will ultimately prove profitable.

IocaI and TeIeEraphic Markets.
The Morning News Office,
Wednesday, Sept "a.
For the first time in weeks interest
l., commercial circles shifted from the
cotton to the stock market, which has
haon on the verge of a slump for the
oast two days on account of tight
money at New York that induced a
wholesale unloading of securities.
Money on call rose to 25 per cent. to-
day. the highest point since the rise
started, but eased off later to Is per
cent. at which accommodations were
TO be had quite freely.
The temporary condition of the
money market seems entirely respon-
sible for the present state of affairs,
and not conditions that will exert any
permanent depression upon stocks. The
New York banks had their reserves cut
down considerably by the heavy de-
mand upon them for funds with which
10 move the crops, and this caused a
slight advance in call loan rates. De-
nositors then withdrew their funds
from the banks quite generally to re!
place them to better advantage. This
necessitated the calling of loans by
the banks, and created the pinch
among borrowers that put call rates to
their high point. Under the pressure
to realize stocks were dumped over
board in large lots, and at times great
ly exceeded the demand Notwith-
standing this it is noteworthy that the
declines are by no means commensu-
rate with such a condition of affairs
as the call rates would indicate. and
this was pointed out by market OBJ
servers as an evidence of the underly-
ing strength of securities. 1t is claim
ed that as a result of good crops and
a coming extraordinary large freight
traffic earnings will show an increase.
After to-day's closing the feeling was
decidedly better and the current belief
that the furry is about over.
Secretary Shaw stands ready to give
relief if necessary. According to ad-
vices from Washington tonight he has
under consideration a plan to deposit
with national banks amounts equal to
the market value of their government
bonds, and not the par value, as at
present. This would have the effect
of placing large funds throughout the
country which could be used in the
movement of the crops, hence relieve
New York of much of this demand
Another quieting bit of news was the
report of the arrival of the steamship
Majestic from Europe with 81, 500,0 600
in gold.
The cotton markets closed without
material change, with prices f1uctuat-
ing within narrow limits. New York
closed 8 UP to off. The New Orleans
market closed 2 up on September, 2 off
on October, off on November, and
on other positions. Naval stores closed
firm, with the demand good for both
spirits and resins. Resume of the
markets as follows:
