Great Activity on Cotton Market
Much Excitement on Opening and
Prices Go Soaring-Enormous
Gains were Made.

New York, Oct. 26. There
was great excitement and activity
at Aa opening of the cotton market
today. More or less general
frosts had been reported in the
cotton belt over Saturday and
Sunday and with Liverpool this
morning exhibiting great tirmness
there was a scarcity of shorts here
that started prices some 20 to 43
points higher. October closing
Saturday at 9.96, sold up to 10. 40
on the call, while December
touched 10. .2S; January, 1925;
March, 1920 and May, 1920.
This enormous gain naturally at
tracted heavy realizing and af-
ter the call prices were depressed
aeyeral'polnts on the more active
positions. The activity continued
all the morning and fluctuations
were irregular and violent. Gems
orally speaking, the tone was firm.
From the highest point early there
was reaction before midday of
from 25 points ON October
ii at II points on the other poci-
tious. Notwithstanding the heavy
estimates for tomorrow's recei pts,
short covering continued in
volume and the market regained
most of its losses with prices in
the early afternoon 25to 35 points
higher than Saturday.
There was little diminution IN
activity or excitement during the
afternoon and the transactions for
the day broke all previous records,
nearly a million and half bales
according to estimate. The mark
6 was finally steady, 26 to "a
points net higher, this represent
ing October, and of to Z points
on later positions. All the months
later than January sold at new
high prices for the season.

Street Fair and Carnival.


The Pierce Jones Exposition
90. IS conducting a street carnival
here this week. They give per
cent of the gross receipts for ful =
nishing the new graded school
building. They exhibited in Rock
Hill all of last week and proved a
great attraction there. The Her.
aid of Saturday says of the carni-
val: "it is nice show and the
proprietors and attaches are an
unusually clever set of people. =
Great crowds gather there every
night, every woman and every
child feeling free to go, since they
are assured that everything on
the grounds and under the tents is
free from any kind of objection.
The young people and the older
people as well have had q good
time every night. The Carnival
20. will close here tonight and
will go to Lancaster on Monday"
The Rock Hill Journal is Just
as complimentary of the show and
speaks as commendatory of the
proprietors and attaches as does
The Herald.
The endorsement of these repu,
table journals of our sister town
Is the best advertisement the
carnival can open with here.
