 Good people call this a moderate crop and it will all be wanted above cents No ono knows what consumption can reach if we have the cotton and moderate prices The world stands waiting to buy an almost unlimited quantity of cottoZ at Size
 The margin seems too small to make short selling an operation of sound oesl- ness There is more room at the top than at the bottom. Shorts might maka A httie and lose a fortune. There is no evidence yet as to the value of cotton this year.

STOCK REACTION WELL CONTROLLED. Was Due to Selling to Take
 Profits MARKET KEPT IRREGULAR Influence of the Advances on senti- ment Was Not So Effective
 As On the Former
 Day.
MARKET KEPT IRREGULAR

New York, October 1S.-A well con- trolled reaction was the result of today's stock market, due to the selling to take profits on the rise. The rise was main tained by the lifting of various special stocks as a cover to the realizing sales. The market was kept irregular rather than weak in this way, but the influence of the advances on sentiment was not so effective as yesterday, and there was more disposition manifested to look for reac- tion.
 The action of yesterdays late trading was a predisposing cause to this view. The result was a general conviction this morn- ing that a very extensive distribution Of holdings had been effected yesterday from the strong speculative hands which have fostered the growth of the present bull market to the weaker hands of the new class or buyers. who have been attracted by the later stages of the advance
 The consequence was a more spotted market, and a decline in speculative en- thusiasm. The dealings fell into a condi- tion of decided dullness at various times during the day, and the rush to buy which carries prices comprehensively up was not iii evidence at any time during the day. The proft-taking was not pre- cipitate, and was not carried far at the expense of values. The conviction was that no great inroads in prices were caused by the proft-taking. The policy was reverted to of shifting operations from one prominent stock to another to sustain prices.
 In the 4.rst hour the stocks chosen were United States stel preferred, Missouri Pacific, Reading and hrie. Later support ing operations eentered on St. Paul, while the early favorites were more or less reactionary, especially United States steel preferred The movement in St. Paul was not wholly convincing, especially as old rumors were revived of settlement of the Northern securities trouble.
 This time by an absortion of St. Paul bv Union Pacific by a bond issue ex- changable in the proportion of 200 per cent. in bonds for 100 per cent in stocks. The absorption of Missouri Pacific was very large and the r:otiye generally of- fered for the buying was that the stock bad not moved commensurately with the rise in the general market. The rise in sugar was in the face of price reductions and the excited demand for copper failed to benefit amalgamated copper The news of the day awakened little interest in market circles, and attention was de- voted to the record of the tape, as af- fording evidence of the public interest 1f abstentation from the dealings. London was a seller here and discounts hardened there. The discounl rate was soft in Berlin and the weekly statement of the imperial bank of Germany showed the effect of the higher bank discount rate in A cash gain of 2,555,00O, repayment of loans to the amount of $15,13OOOO and note contraction of $21, ,610,0O0. Sterling at continental points in consequence stead- led.

 Profits.
SOUTH WAS BUSY BUYER

New York October 1s-The cotton mar ket opened rather better than due on the cables at unchanged prices to an advance of points and after some irregularty ruled active and generally firm, closing at q fair net gain for the day.
 The advance was due chiefly to support from some large speculative interests on the prospect for rain in the western belt, while buying was also encouraged 10 some extent by reports of better spot situation in the south owing to light offerings and somewhat increased de mand at the recent decline.
 Business here scene. to be of a profess sional character, but there was fair sprinkling of orders through wire and south, making it appear that the out look for frost in Texas was bringing in a little public demand.
 A leading southern operator was a good buyer here early in the day but seemed to be selling at the advance, Just before the close there was more general selling with smaller longs taking prof its.
 At the best point the market was about r to 20 points net higher The close was steady at net gain of 10 to 15 points Sales estimated at 35O00O bales.

Leishman & Co.,. Market Letter.

Eelshman & Co. Market Ietter.
 The cotton market opened quiet and practically uncharsged, although the price of both spot and futures were lower In Liverpool. The heavy rain reported in Cuba served to check any hearish opera tions as it was feared that troplcal storm might extend northward into the cotton belt and do serious damage to the crop
 Prices eased off slightly after the opeh- ing. but strengthened on covering laler. The sbort interest in the market has again become very large, and gives signs of becoming top heavy. We thlnk that the short interest is being encouraged to sell the market and that the large operators are getting the bears Tn a posi- ton to give them twist In the near future. ssGi91
 We consider the short side dangerous one to be on under present conditions and advise the covering of outstanding short contracts and a long position on the market taken at once.

New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, October 1S.-Spot cotton was active and firm. Most of the factors are holding for outside figures. Sales 9SOO bales, including 4600 to arrive. The improvements in futures gave strength to spots. Quotations 1-16c higher.
 Futures opened steady with prices from points down to 2 points up, compared with last evenings close. The market was more active than it has been for some days. The scalpers operated freely as prices fiuctuated rapidly with fairly wide limits. The outside public also took part in the trading, while the operations of the big bulls and bears kept the ring guessing as to what would be the outcome of the session. The chief feature of the day was the prediction in the weather forecast that the temperature would fall to 32 degrees tomorrow in north Texas and in the western portions of Oklahoma and Indian territories. This scared the shorts and gave the bulls new courage with the result that prices were sent up about 20 points from the lowest levels of the early hours When the demand of shorts had been supplied prices eased off 5 to 8 points. In the trading December opened up 2 points at 9.73 declined to 969 sold up to 990 and finally receded to 9.S3 The market closed steady with net gains of Il to 15 points.

Loveman & Co.'s Market Letter.

Liverpool was lifted from level or 5 to 10 points lowen than closing of last night to within 2 to points of yesterday final figures and the American markets were influenced to about level or 2o points higher when compared with yester- days closing. This was brought about by the appearance of a cold wave in the far northwest, indicating much colder weather for the cotton belt possibly rain and a drop in the mercury of about 20 points to almost freezing in Oklahoma and in the Pan Handle of Texas. Trad ing on the openings was put through at prices shade tlrmer than yesterdays 3 closing but professionals indulged In sell ing the market. The official forecast for probable freezing weather in the territo- ries caused rush to cover short con- tracts. The indifference on the part of the exporters wore away and buyers were eager to purchase, securing a great deal of the days business at unchanged prices, but finally paying an advance of 1-16.
