STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Oct. 22.-The movement OF
prices of stocks today was again lncon-
elusive the net changes being for the
most part trivial. Losses predominated
IT the end of the day, but the market
had quite generally advanced in face OF
the early unfavorable developments. The
suspension of an Allegheny bank, growing
cut of the failure yesterday of the Fed
eral National Bank of Pittsburg, caused
scarcely ripple in the market, although
reports showed the continued necessity of
precautionary measures at Plttsburg, such
IS recraining from trading in bank stocks
md the provision of a two million dollar
safety fund amongst the banks. London
also affected this market unfavorably,
owing to fresh outbreak of fears of war
eetween Russia and Japan. The labor
disputes on the Manhattan and Pennsyl-
,ania Railroad system were under dis
,ussion in Wall Street, but did not seem
to be much regarded in the trading. Dis
abstraction was expressed with the con-
litions in the coal trade growing out Of a
arge accumulation of steam sizes OF an
thracite and the active competition there
by effected by the large production of
bituminous coal for shipping to the sea-
ooard The latter traffic is reported to
Se in a semi-demoralized condition and
1t the same time the assertion gained
currency that the attorney general of Vir-
ginia contemplated proceeding to con-
Test the control by the Pennsylvania AMI
the Baltimore and Ohio, Norfolk and
Western and Chesapeake and Ohio. The
effect of these developments was not more
than nominal and did not prevent an adj
vance which included representative
stocks in most of the prominent groups,
the coalers not excepted. With funds aC-
cumulating in reserves and growing case
in the money market. there is no longer
IN expectation thse high interest rates
will be permanent and on the assumption
high grade bonds are attractive at the
present level of prices. The special de-
mands upon LEGAL money supplies by rca
son of the troubles at Baltimore and
Pittsburg have not affected the case o!
the local money market.
One reason for the prevailing ease seems
to be that the heavy railroad borrowings
expected to develop this fall have moi
come into evidence. Deposits at the sub
Treasury today for transfer to New Or
leans were $35O00O following the deposit
for similar purpose yesterday of 1925,
600. This is convincing evidence of q
much freer movement OF the cotton crop

Cotton letter,

Raleigh, N. c., October o. 1903.
The market gained more grounG today
and before noon prices we're about &c.
| higher than during the early part of the
month. Trading was fairly active and the
tone proved firm. The cotton for 2ale
early in the day was limited and as buy
ing increased prices advanced rapidly
There was short covering in volume ard
more or less buying for foreign account.
The buying for Europe has been the feat,
ure Of the market for some time. No
signs of any falling off are in evidence
and until the demand lets up prices are
not likely to recede. The market has nov
advanced to point where profit taking
on the cotton bought lower is the part
Of wisdom. A large lot of cotton was
taken Monday on the break and all this
cotton shows big profit. The profit tax
ing yesterday and today has diminished
the long interest, but it Will require an
active spinning demand to carry the mar
ket on upward. Still there is nothing III
the outlook to induce short selling. We
would hardly buy cotton at this level.
though a scare on the part of spinners
would carry prices higher. 1t is too dan
gerous to buy On an advance Of half a
for a good break, or not at all. Receipts
are not as large as the trade expected.
In comparison with the export movement,
receipts are rather lighter than other
wise. This may bring spinners IN at any
moment and for this reason short selling
is dangerous. There was every reason
to buy cotton two or three weeks ago
when the bottom dropped out OF the mar
ket. and the best people were buying.
Now it is a very different proposition.
Outside factors are conflicting as ever
and there is the danger OF war IN the
Far East. We would be surprised to see
much OF an advance over ten cents at this
season. and in case the South starts to
sell. prices may react sharply.
New York spot prices unchanged; mid
ding ten cents.
Port receipts for today were estimated
at $4,000 bales, against 4S,612 bales last
week. and 4f,47t bales last year.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: AZ
Galveston. $4,000 to $4,000 bales, against
1928 bales last week, and 1879 bales
last year; at New Orleans. 1900 TO 20
600 bales. against II, 264 last week, and
1926 bales last year; at Houston, 1880
to 1880 bales. against II 1853 bales last
week, and 1920 bales last year.
