STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Nov. 3.-Movements in the
stock market today were characterized
by the various influences incidental to
election week, together with other and
perhaps more potent reasons. Sterling
exchange reached the highest point in
the present movement, some demand bills
being sold at 49, which is within a
quarter of cent of the figure at which
sold can admittedly be exported profit
ably. The accumulation of commercial
bills over Sunday was hardly equal to
the demand. Paris exchange Oh London
declined half cent, while bar gold ad-
vanced 1-Sd., in London. 1t was not de-
nied that some banks and firms were
earnestly considering shipments of gold
in the very near future. The rise in
exchange was doubtless, in great meas
ure, responsible for the check on stock
market operations, though the volume of
business for the day was not lower than
for some days past. Opening prices were
lower, the greatest decline being in Louis
Vile and Nashville, which sold off over
a point. Less extensive declines were
shown by Atchison, Baltimore and Ohio,
Missouri Pacific, st. Paul, Union Pacific,
and Reading. The demand for this latter
stock was large, but offerings were free.
Manhattan, feature of last weeks pool
operations, made a slight fractional de-
cline, and the other fractions were heavy.
Later in the morning, fresh selling pres
sure developed and some of the stocks
named went lower. London bought about
1000 on the decline. The only indus
trial issue that displayed any activity
was United States Steel, the heaviness
CT which was presumably due to reports
of disturbing conditions in the steel and
iron industry. A reminder of this was
furnished by the American Tin Plate
Company, which announced a material cut
in the price of it's products. Trading in
the early afternoon was even more cir
cumscrihed and professional, with Ear
tial resumption of pool operations in
few issues, chiefly Toledo, st. Louis and
Western. Traders professed to see indi-
cations of good" selling in Manhattan
and other Gould stocks Commission
houses as we'll as brokers with wire con-
nections were out of the market, though
the liquidation in Baltimore and Ohio
and Louisville and Nashville seemed tc
come from the West. In the final hour
q general attack upon the soft coal stocks
end st. Paul brought prices to the Lowest
level of the day The rally toward the
close suggested considerable short coy
ering. as we'll as a better view of the
present situation with the result thai

end.

Market Letter.

Especial to the News and Observer
New Orleans, La, Nov 3-Early
Liverpool advices were disappointing,
therefore our market opened to points
lower but Immediately after advanced
to from the bottom on the later i'm
provements there, due to fears of cold
wave in northern Texas. Shortly after,
however, the official prediction was for
generally fair weather in that State, and
when this became known all the ad-
vance was lost, making the net decline
of to points on the day. While show
ers occurred over Sunday in eastern
Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas, fair
weather prevailed generally in other
portions of the South. The temperature
ranged between 40 and so degrees. Fair
weather generally was predicted tonight
and Tuesday in Oklahoma. Indian Ter

looks as if it will be deferred for some
time. This is the third of November

appearance, except in few sections.
doing little or no damage The average
date of killing frost is about October
25th, consequently at this late date ii is
claimed that the top crop is assured and
opening in all States, and even If a
general killing frost were to take place
tomorrow it would now only do mini
mum amount of damage. Spots are weak
and, although concessions are readily
made to effect transactions, buyers re-
main scarce. Sentiment, however, con-
tinues very bullish, and any encouraging
feature will be eagerly taken advantage
OF to enhance values.

(Speial to the News and Observer
New York, Nov. 3.-Being before a
holiday there was more or less short
covering in cotton throughout the ses-
sion This usually takes place before a
holiday and today more than usual
owing to frost preditions in some poT-
lions of the cotton belt. Traders We're
afraid of killing frosts in sections where
they have not occurred as yet and an ad-
vance IL prices Wednesday morning.
The few who were short bought and this
turned the market from S.24 for March,
the low point Of the last month to S.92
The buying in December carried thar
option from 8.39 to SAT. Then in q few
sales the whole structure seemed to
crash and December sold back to S.42
and January 8.4S. For a firm market this
is not a bad sign. The simple fact is
that this market is not bull market. 1t
may develop all sorts of strength later
ket. and we believe the reason is a sim
pie one. The manipulation in January
has carried that option so far above
other markets that large blocks of cotton
are being sold here by houses with
Southern connections. The reason for
this selling is an economic one, namely,
that a man having goods to sell, sells in
the highest market. About seven weeks
ago Southern spot markets were Rc.
higher than they are now and yet jan
uary cotton here is now ten points lower.
This means that New York is taking cot
ton from the South and we can't ad-
vance until the South goes up on legiti-
mate spot demand. We are not willing to
advise buying just yet.

New York, Nov. 3,-The market today

influences being at work to curtail the
demand. The general tone continues firm
and prices are unchanged. The market
will be closed tomorrow.
NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, Nov. 3.-The cotton market
opened steady at an advance of point to
a decline of points under poor early
cables which later became better and
with small estimates as to port receipts
for the day and talk of cold weather in
the Western part OF the cotton belt. the
market rallied to 8 points on the more
active positions, but again turned easier
CT an unexpected contribution to re-
ccipts by Sabine Pass clearances TO the
amount of 1902 bales, making the port
receipts for the day 61.42S bales, against
estimates of $4,000. The market was
finally easy in tone with net changes
showing a rise of one point to a decline
of two points. During the afternoon GER
tain parties arrested the decline by abb
sorbing the offerings on the good show
ing made by exports which for two days
show 1880 bales. against port receipts
of 106. 1886 bales. This demand was ac-
tolerated by further falling off in con-
soldated stocks which are now S6,2l1
bales under last years. The selling was
N good part for Southern accounts, but
the larger local bear operators also sold
freely The sales of futures were esti-
mated at 200, 600 bales.

The opening loss was followed by bit
