STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Sept 19-The opening of
business on the Stock Exchange today
was the signal for another aggressive
drive against United States Steel common
and the industrial st generally. So fierce
was the attack that the decline in price
embraced practically the entire list and
many stocks found new low records steel
common going off full point. Some of
the socalled gilt edge industrials regis
tered severe losses a case in point being
Westinghouse Electric which sold off
over 20 points, with a loss of almost half
as much in the preferred stock. Other is
sues that bore the brunt of the opening
onslaught included Republic Steel pre-
ferred, Sloss Sheffield, United States Rub
Der preferred and Amalgamated Copper.
The railroad list also declined, st. Paul,
Rock Island. New York Central Canadian
Pacific, Chesapeake and Ohio, Norfolk and
Western and Erie second preferred all
making material recessions. The break
in the railroads, however, probably result
ed from the heavy selling of Atchison
stock for western firm which was recent
ly prominent on the buying side The
demonstration against steel common was
begun by a specialist who offered the
stock at 17& and then down another frac-
ton. Bear traders then took a hand and
successfully hammered it down to IL The
market steadie1 before the end of the first
hour, some support being given to steel
and other industrials. The amount of
short covering was also very extensive.
After brief reaction prices again stead
led and following the publication of the
bank statement gradually improved to the
close, which was steady and moderately
strong. The one favorable feature of the
statement was the contraction of more
than $4,000 900 in loans.
L. S. rs advanced 1 per cent, the old
As registered u per cent. and the new
As Is per cent The old As coupon de-
clined u per cent as compared with the
closing call of last week
Total sales of stocks today were 2S7, 300
shares, including Atchison, 21,550; Erie,
$685. Missouri Pacific, 10000: Pennsyl-
vania, $500; Reading, 1880; Rock Is

Ware e. LeIand's
Cotton Letter.

The break in stocks had a depressing
effect upon the cotton market. In fact
more long came out than before this
week. This selling was not due to any
change in news on cotton. Reports from
the South were not at all good But the
decline in stocks had some effect on the
market. Holders seemed inclined to sell
rather than take any chance over Sun
day, yet in the face of selling that proved
rather liberal early in the day, prices
held very steady. October advanced at
one time, selling at about loo, while
January sold at 81. Some appeared to
be buying October and selling December
and January as hedge. This may turn
out well and it has had the effect of
widening the difference between January
and October Reports from the South
show the crop is not doing well and there
is less disposition to short cotton than
heretofore. Owing to the Wall Street
complication buying is more conservative
and holders take profits on every adj
vance. The supply of cotton is very
small indeed, much smaller than TWO
years or even three years ago The sun
ply is so light that it is still very danger
Gus to go short of the market. A little
manipulation in October would put that
option up cent a pound. 1t begins to
look as though there was something do
ing in that month. AS long as September
is selling so much above October, and spot

Clinton, N c.. Sept. 19.-Safe crackers
this morning made an attempt to blow
open the two safes in the postoffice at this
place The explosion awoke several peo-
pie. but the robbers made good their es
cape.
Dr.. F. H. Holmes was attending a pa
tient at the Murphy House just across
the street from the postoffice and as he
started 10 leave the explosion occurred
He Immediately aroused several men and
FASTENED to the scene. 1t was found that
the larger safe had been badly wrecked.
1t was second hand, a new facing having
been placed over the older one. This only
was blown off and had the crackers had
time the old facing would have been
blown off before they could have opened
the safe Nothing of value was carried
off by the robbers. Several blacksmith
tools which were taken from Mr.. Tom
Wilson'S shop were found in the post
office. An attempt to catch the burglars
with bloodhounds will be made.
