 MONEY MARKET HARDENS
ash Holdings In New York Banks Are Decreasing Owing to Heavy Drain of Crop Movement
 But Causes No Fear.

New York, September 14.-The stock pday. Efforts were made to keep spec lative interest alive by concentrating perations in one or two of the usual peculative favorites and few novel; les, but the response of the general list as languid. The tendency of prices to trace their course was another sign of le predominance of professional traders ansactions. The hardening of the money arket is natural check on free spec alton. While banking opinion does not ok for any stringency this fall, the po- ton of the banking reserves show that restriction of credits is imperative to Pnform to the heavy drain now making h the cash holdings of the banks. The .244,000 withdrawn from the banks by ib-treasury operations since the last 'eekly bank statement was made up, Pmpares with an actual surplus re- rye at that time of less than $4,000, 900. he interior has continued to draw on iew York, in the meantime in addition
 the sub-treasury requirements. A rise
 
 day compared with 50 cents per 5000 lscount last week has resulted for firmer Soney rates here. The shifting of loans nployed in the speculative holdings of ocks to other lenders than the banks ems to be indicated by the course of Tents.
 The usual recourse is to foreign money larkets at this time of the year, but the loney market in New York Is extended ready to enormous extent on that side. stimate of American banking indebted fss abroad have pointed to a figure as gh as $500,000. The low level of the erchandise exports for many months Lst and which still persists has con- ned with very large imports to leave the ternational exchange market without it's lual material for covering foreign re- fttances. The newly developed Russian lmand for gold in the London market iso projects a new element into the prob In, unusually heavy grain exports from ilssia being advanced in the eXplan- lion.
 In the home of the financial markets Ie investment appetite for securities has len the occasion of complaint by bank E and syndicates and various projected Wv issues have been delayed. In some these a large foreign participation
 
 bet part of the maturing indebtedness l New York to foreign money markets. hnk loans throughout the country are iown to be very heavily extended, how uch so the compilation of reports of ltiona banks now making to the comp bller is awaited to show.
 With the season at hand when the nor hl requirements of the interior make lquisition upon New York for tens Of illions of dollars, the outlook does not vite to undue extension of liabilities, kr holding securities on margin. The nks were inclined to advance the rate fr call loan rates in concert and e making of a three per cent rate one or two of the largest institutions Iide an example that was generally fol- wed. This is as high rate as has len touched at any time since the early lrt of 190S when money plethora was

COTTON ADVANCES
 $ ID ID POINTS Cotton Goods Advices Are 0ptl- mistic and Aid Prices BULL SUPPORT IS GOOD Southern Offerings Are Reported Smaller and Continuation of Hot
 Weather Helps To Make
 Prices Recover.
BULL SUPPORT IS GOOD

New York, September 14.-Following slight early decline today's cotton market steadied and showed a generally advaf1c- ing tendency with the close very steady at a net gain of 6d10 points.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of points to decline of points. and in sympathy with rather better ca bles than expected,' sold about to net lower early under liquidation and bear pressure. There seemed to be noth ing in the news to stimulate selling for short account as Fall River advices were generally optimistic as to the probable effect and duration of the labor troubles, and the market soon rallied on bullish crop reports from the southwest, GOV ering and a renewal of bull support. Fluctuations during the middle of the day showed nervousness and irregularity, but the general ruling of the market was above the closing of last night and after noon the tone became firmer on talk Of smaller southern offerings at declines, and the weekly weather report confirming the talk of exceedingly low temperatures dur ing the past week.
 The highest prices of the week were reached late in the session when Decem-
 
 low level of yesterday. The close was in a point or two of the top. Southern spot markets as officially reported early were somewhat irregular, being Bc low CT to 1sc higher. A prominent south western authority published a report in- dcating falling off of 40 per cent in the Texas crop outlook and of 30 per cent in Oklahoma as compared with the previous year. The weather map showed scattered rains and it Is apprehended that should there be driving storms much damage might result. as the crop Is sup posed to be practically all opening at once.
 Receipts at the ports today 52,o00 bales, against 35,74 last week and 52,154 last year. For the week 1S0000 bales, against 151,S22 last week and 213,SS2 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans 3119 bales against 375S last year and at Hous- ton s166 bales, against 24,S76 last year.

Reports from the interior spot markets were that sellers were re- fusing to meet the lower price of futures brought about recently, and that, in not a few instances, farmers were having their cotton ginned but were hauling the ginned bales back home. This put the market up in the afternoon session for a net advance of to 10 points. The closing was steady, with the active deliveries g up.

Hubbard Bros. 6 Co.'S Letter.

New York; September 14.-(Special) Europe was a large buyer here this morning as it was yesterday, reliev- Ing the market from the pressure of the liquidation of the past two days. In the absence of fresh liquidation the market with slight flutua- tions finally closed steady some g points higher, or about the same as on Saturday. No new feature has appeared and crop advices lead one to expect a reduction in the government report, which will be compiled in ten days. Meanwhile our spinners are only slow buyers. They have bought a large amount of basis cotton but as they have not fixed the price they are practically short against the cotton. The best buyer is the continent which takes the cotton as it places confidence in the indication of 8 short crop, as foreshadowed by the government re- port.
 Liverpool should be 3 points higher tomorrow, though the trade expects the receipts to break the market.

Little Rock, June I2.-Special. The state guard encampment was this afternoon awarded to Dardanelle, by Adjt.
