49, crop larger than the trade require
ments. Estimates are gradually being re-
duced and many do not regard yield
larger than last year as altogether be.
yCnd question. Were it not Tor the an
certainty in Wall Street circles and the
fear that the reaction in general business
will curtal the consumption of cotton,
there would be a very different cotton
market. Commission houses business
would be such as to drive the price to
ten cents easily, As it is, the Wall Street
situation IS very important, but at the
moment t Is OF secondary and minor III
Portance. The crop news is first and has
leen sufficiently stimulating 10 swing
shorts into line. Some very heavy short
buying has been feature of the week
The short interest is still large and this
may cause higher prices before the emf
OF the month The local stock is down
to $1,000 bales and Is being moved out
rapidly. As far as the cotton market
goes. there is nothing in the situation
to encourage short selling through the
prospect of surplus from this year $
crop. From the best that can be learned
the crop will not furnish much more than
the cotton necessary for mills. While the
unsatisfactory condit on of finances and
the declining prices of copper, iron and
steel tend to make enc conservative On
an advance of half a cent. the underlying
factors in the cotton situation are not in
favor OF lower prices. It is still the sea-
son of plenty, when the crop is being
marketed, and for this reason conscr-
vatism is the policy Of wisdom On a
break from this Toint we would buy
moderately and feel that those who buy
or declines Will be able to get out with
profits. as cotton is likely to sell higher
later on. The majority are not in favor
OF short selling just at this time.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York. Oct. l6-The bears We're
driven to cover their short contracts IN
the course of todays trading in the stock
market and before the close were in
something like panic buying In all dl-
rections in heavy volume. The early
stages of the rise were viewed with APP
parent complacency by the large out
standing short interest in the confidence
that the rally would be unimportant, as
has proved to be the case so often of
late Their confidence was increased by
the fact that Anal gamated Copper made
but feeble response yesterday and TINS
morning to the dividend declaration, al
though the outstanding short interest IN
that stock was believed to have grown
20 very large proportions. An actual lie
cline of a point in Reading, second pre-
ferred, on the declaration of IFS initial
dividend also pointed to the conclusion
that good news was taken advantage Of
10 iquidate stocks. But the fact became
very evident early today that the pres
sure of liquidation was almost entirely
relaxed. Even the much enduring indus
trials were free from the recent indiscrim
mate selling, and were suffered to hold
up their heads and make some scattering
advances The bears began to discover
that in offering prices down they were
rot meeting their recent invariabe success
in dislodging selling orders and inducing
liquidation There were heavy portions
OF the market, Notwithstanding this gen.
eral tendency, notably in the Pennsyl-
yana group and the anthracite carriers.
The reduction in soft coal rates to the
seaboard and reports of the closing down
of additional anthracite colieries were
supposed to be the cause of this heaviness,
but the suspicion grew that these stocks
were depressed to facilitate covering IN
other parts of the list. Beyond the cessa,
ton of the persistent liquidation there
was very little news to account for the
turn in the market. A compilation OF
earnings of over ninety railroads for Au-
gust indicates that their gain in net earn
ngs ever last year averages over 16- per
cent. These facts may have played "a
part in inducing buying, although they
have been consistently ignored for some
time. The reported contract of the
United States Steel Corporation for furn-
ishing steel to great shipbuilding COM
pany in Great Britain was also regarded
as a promising development. The de-
mands of the employees of Manhattan fail
ed to create alarm. The rise of 3ss in
United States Steel, preferred, and of 3h
in Amalgamated made those stocks the
market leaders, although there were some
less active stocks which showed some
larger advances. In the usual prominent
stocks there were general advances of 2
to points and the market closed buoyant
at the top.
Bonds shared moderately in the strength
of stocks. Total sales of bonds (par valuej
were SO, 1863 900.
United States bonds were unchanged on
the last call
Total sales today were 729, 500 shares.
