moderate profits by large ScSlping operations. The
great speculative movements which began in the
fall Of 1908 came to definite end on August 81
last The operations Of this clique handled cotton
from four crops, and finally wound up its career
IN fragments Of the original formation as TO per-
sonEel and with losses growing out Of extreme
dullness In the cotton trade and a promise Of 4
fun yield for the season which has Just begun.
II the price Of cotton is to be advanced from
present levels Il must result from actual spinners
demand greater than the supply either coming for
ward from the new crop or in prospect Of delivery.
There is no leadership in any important movement
looking to advance AZ present, and there Is no
accumulation o. large lines Of contracts with spec-
lative intent. On the other hand. the only real
sellers who sell cotton and stick to their position
are SOutherners or brokers representing crop
deliveries, and the market therefore reflects a normal
trade supply and demand situation. The govern
ment report which issued last Friday no

Of avail. The news from the South strongly
indicates deterioration. There Is very little talk

Dissolution of Standard Oil and American To-
bacco Companies to Be accomplished With
out Injury to the Security Holders.

New York, Sept Elm a day Of light
trading stocks advanced further. Most
Of the upward movement was accom-
plished in the early hours. In the after
noon profit-taking shaded all quotations,
but the close was strong. Declaration Of
an increased dividend by the Inter
borough Rapid Transit Company caused
free profit-taking in the securities Of its
allied companies, Conspicuous strength
was shown by American Beet Sugar be-
cause Of the dividend to be declared be-
fore the end of this calendar year.
While the market is expected to ad-
vance several points further on this
movement, it is purely a, trading af-
fair, the buying being chiefly for short
and speculative account Although there
has been considerable short covering, the
technical position is still strong. Much
more stock will be nquidated, however,
should the advance be carried much fur
ther and renewed liquidation will also
follow the decline when It begins again.
Trading in the stocks of the American
Tobacco and Standard Oil companies was
OF such a nature as to encourage the
whole market 1t is we'll known that
Standard Oil has material assets worth
somewhere between $60O,00O,O0O and 70O,
100000 at forced sale. The old Standard
OIL stock has a value of not less than
$1,000 share, and the insiders have been
the heaviest purchasers at the recent
low levels. Insiders of the American To-

and American To-

bacco Company have also bought the
common stock and the bonds OF their
own company freely.
The result is going to be that dissolu-

were not for the disaster in connection
with the crops and the war tilat is brood
ing between organized labor and capital
in connection with the proposed enforce
ment of the Sherman antitrust law, one
could expect the stock market to have a
good rally.
Increase of the Interborough Rapid
Transit dividend caused a curious Wall
street person to get on a subway train
at Wall street at / o'clock and ride to
Uper Broadway and back, Just to see
the condition of business. He found the
trains crowded even at midday.
Railroad reports for the last week OF
August surprised the street with some
drastic reductions made in operating eX-
penses. Although Great Northern earned
SAC, ,543 less in gross earning, the operating
expenses were reduced so as to give a
net increase of $453, ,32S.
The steel corporation and the Copper
Producers Association will both make
theiR usual monthly statements this
week The steel trust is expected to
show that although operating at IS per
cent of its capacity. il has gained more
than 100000 tons in untitled orders. The
Copper Producers Association expects to
make a much less favorable report from
the stock exchange point of view than
was the one of the previous month.
