NEW YORK, Sept s.-The stock market to-
day practically ignored the showing Of a
deficit Of Sc, ,57T. .920 by the banks below the le-
gal reserve requirements. Prices dropped mo-
mentarily when the statement first appeared,
and then rose vigorously on powerful support
to a strong closing. Speculative confidence was
professed that the heavy engagements OF gold
for import which will become available Mon
day through the operation Of the order of the
Secretary of the Treasury to facilitate the i'm

for easing the money market Estimates Of the
amount Of gold already secured for this pur-

New YORK Cotton Market.

NEW YORK, Sept. s.-The cotton market
was duh and narrow, with tendency on the
market was heavy. The census report the
amount of cotton ginned TO September Will
probably be bulIisb, as the crop is too late to
have permitted ginning as early last year.
The market will undoubtedly continue narrow
report on the condition Of the crop will be given
out at ! o'clock 1t is said to be about II.
The Southern Cotton Growers Association is
reported on inside authority to bave the crop
estimated at an excess of II. 500, 900 bales, but
that estimate was not made public officially for
fear that IL would cause a wide-open break.
Shorts seem the best buyers. There is a great
fight around present prices. The Chronicles
weekly summary claimed there was some dam
age done by rains 10 open cotton in Texas but
the weather has cleared up there operators
believe the damage will be light compared with
what WAS indicated.

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.
Future Grain and provisions.


CHICAGO Sept Sentiment in the wheat
pit was almost exclusively dominated by the
weather map of the Northwest, which is still
favorable for the harvesting and threshing of
the crop of winter wheat. Cash houses
and pit traders here offered wheat literally, but
the demand not equal to the supply, and
consequently the price of all deliveries made
further declines. The market was heavy all
day. December opened 4@Ac to A@%c lower
at 72@72sc, sold of to 71ssc and closed at
71%@71Nc, almost the lowest point of the
session.
Because of the continuance of ideal weather
for the crop the market for that cereal
was weak all day. The market closed weak.
December opened h@Ac lower at 41%@42.
sold of to 41Mc and closed at 41&c.
Trading In the oats pit was quiet and the
market was easier because of the weakness of
wheat and corn. December opened 1sc lower
at 30%c. sold between 3o15c and 30%c and
closed at 30% @30%c.
The decline In the price of corn caused con-
siderable profit taking in provisions and re-
suited in moderate declines in all products. At
the close January pork off 15c. Lard was
off &c. Ribs were 121h @15c lower.
The leading futures ranged as follows;

governing the market at present are the fine
