NEW YORK. Oct. 26.-Stocks were
quietly strong In Wallst., early to-
day. The opening figure followed

were the master stocks, as all OF them
moved 10 about the high records es-
taGl!shed last week. TIE general list
was very dull.
one favorable influence was the
ginning report which showed that up
TO oct. Is. there lad been 6,2SS.00h
bales o: cotton gi,ined against APO
0oo Bales 6. the same time last yca-.
This is = b-ar:sh influence on the cot

On the curb market there was con-
siderable activity in the first class
mining stocks. including Cobalt Cen.

and Ely, Nevada Consolidated and
Goldfeld Consolidated.
Disturbed Over Election Effects.
Wall-st traders are much disturbed
just now as to the probable course oil
The market up TO election and for y
few days after. II Is evident that
strength will characterize the list. The
men who are in charge Of the market
are the richest In the world and the
most daring. They have been busy
for three months putting the list up TO
where il is and the difficulties they
have overcome have been tremendous.
The wisdom of the sharp advance may
be seriously questioned. but the fact
OF it is perfectly clear.
Orders for many million dollars or
business are in the hands OF the big
corporations subject TO the election OF
Mr.. Taft but even the election of Bry-
an would not necessarily cause a col
lapse of the market because IL is so
high that they don't dare let go of II.
Looked at from standpoint OF either
q Republican or Democratic success,
a steady market is logical thing for
the near future. The only question Is,
as between a steady market around
present figures and boom.
