CLOSE WAS AT THE LOWEST

New York, September 15.-The cotton
market was nervous and unsettled, losing
the gains of yesterday and closing steady
but at practically the lowest point of the
session, a net decline of 6Q14 points. Sales
were estimated at 275,00O bales. The OPP
ening was firm at an advance of 4QS
points in response to higher English
cables and further rumors concerning the
bull position in October. But there seemed
to be no indication Of support from the
Wall street clique, commission and wire
house longs were liquidating, local bears
were aggressive, and with one or two
spot houses selling near months the
market soon weakened. With oni5 two or
three brief reactions. prices Continued to
decline during the entire session, being
steadied little toward the close by
smalls' shorts taking profits. Private re-
ports from the south regarding the spot
situation continued of bullish average,
but according to official reports the larger
markets were unchanged to &c lower.
Receipts for the day were full, but great
ly exceeded by exports. Weather reports
indicated generally favorable conditions
for picking, and while private crop re-
ports are conflicting, sentiment appears to
look for a smaller September deterioration
than the average.
Receipts of cotton at the ports today
were 80, 632 bales against AS67 last week.
and 32,S7S last year. For the week, esti-
mated, 100000, against 157,s0S last week
and 1876, 705 last year. Today's receipts at
New Orleans, 1894, against 275S last year,
and at Houston 1927 against 1l,729 last
year.

CHECKS THE LIFT IN PRICES

New York, September 15.-The money
market situation reasserted its influence
on stocks today and checked the efforts
by professional operators to lift prices.
The influence of the money situation was
due more to the prospect of poor bank
statement than to any actual operations
In the loan market, although the per cent
rate touched for money on call registered
the maximum for the season thus far and
served as an Ammunition of the actual
scarcity of funds. Some of the news de-
velopments was of character that would
have been regarded as important at any
time. but were oyershadowed almost en-
tirely by the money question. The demon
stration for wrestling control of the Wa
bash system from its present hands
caused sharp advance in the securities
of that company.
But hostile demonstrations amongst rail-
road owners and capitalists are not rel
ished by the stock market operators, and
the effect of the news on the general list
became rather depressing than other
WISE There was dread the contest might
veil a struggle between vast interests
behind the nominal contestants, which
might cause disastrous consequences. Con-
trary differences were drawn from the
announcement of the passing of control
of the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton
system to ]. P. Morgan g. Co., as 1t was
believed the effect would be characterization
of various claims. There was disposition
to draw an analogy with the Louisville
and Nashville purchase regarding which
Morgan made a statement on the witness
stand that he was influenced by the pur-
pose to keep it out of hands which he re-
garded as unsafe. There Is suspicion
that similar purpose applied to the pres

Dry Goods.

| New York September 15.-The dry
goods situation was somewhat improved
today in that the possibilities OF sellers
acceding to demands of buyers for lower
prices seemed groundless while .on the
other hand the buyers appeared more
willing to pay asking prices even for la
| ter deliveries.

smoIIen a Co.'S Market Letter.

The stock market opened Irregular with
the majority of the list unchanged. For
eigned houses were good buyers of Union
Pacific around the opening causing a
further advance, Union Pacific selling
above 133 But after this demand was
satisfied the price broke off below 1872
We believe Union Pacific a sale on all
such advances. Locomotive was the
strong feature Of the low priced issues,
gaining Aabout Iva per cent. We advised
the purchase of this stock right along
when it was selling around Al. We ex-
pect to see Locomotive sell at IS before
the end of ten days. Chesapeake and Ohio
gained I've per cent. reaching a new high
point. We think well of Chesapeake and
Ohio, and Kansas and Texas for safe
Investment purchase.
