New York, Oct. 22.-There was
further frost news in the cotton mar
ket 4 lay and a continued big de-
mand from some Of the large trade in
terests but Notwithstanding the per-
sistent liquidation Of the past week,
offerings continued sensationally heavy
and after an early advance the mar
ket weakened, closing easy at a net
advance of two points on October, but
generally our to eight points net
lower.
The market opened steady at I'M
changed prices to a decline of seven
points and right after the call showed
a net loss of from 4 to Z points on &C
tive months under overnight selling
orders and in response to poor cables.
The early Weather map showed no
Temperatures as low as freezing In the
belt but private reports were received
indicating heavy to killing frost In
both central and western sections and
q big demand from spo interests
quickly rallied the market from the
early low points. Shorts covering Tor
over the probably helped the
advance which carried prices ABOUT
three to seven points net higher. u
while official detailed reports received
later in the morning confirmed the pri-
yate adviceS concerning tie cold
weather and showed temperatures
down to 50 degrees in North Texas,
the low point Of the day was reached
near the close under continued liqui-
dation and heavy selling by reaction
lists. 1t is estimated In the local mar
ket that speculative liquidation dur
ing the past week will approximate
half a million bales and the continued
selling by earlier season bulls is lead
ing to rumors that at least some or
these interests are now taking the
short side on a theory that the census
figures rext Tuesday will be followed
BY increase of the crop.
Receipts at the ports today 55,925
bales, against 77,343 last week and
61.517 last year. For the week 49,

 Pretender Wants to Rule.
 Vienna, Oct. Dom Miguel of Bra ganza, spretender to the Portuguese throne, interviewed at Kleinschen- bach, where he is visiting his brother in-law, Prince Lowenstein Wertheim, declared he was dismayed at the news from Lisbon. Then he said:
 Nothing can alter my right to the throne of Portugal and I refuse to be- lieve that the country demands a re- publican form of government, how ever discontented it may be with the present regime.
 q hope that the majority of my countrymen will summon me. their rightful king, to reign over them and promote the industrial and moral wei fare of my kingdom.
