HEAVY SELLING IN COTTON MARKET
Prices Again Break Into New Low GrOund-1S to
 24 Points Loss

New York, October 15.-There was heavy and prices once more broke into new low ground for the season. with close weak at a net decline from Is to 24 points,
 The opening was steady at an advance of point. decline of points, and dur ing the first few minutes the market inn proved on foreign buying and covering of shorts. Active months sold about points above the closing figures of last night on this bulge. but there was lot of cotton for sale on the advance to 10.5sc for Jan nary and prices soon weakened.
 Various local spot houses appeared to be receiving numerous selling orders from the south and as soon as the Liverpool close shut out arbitrage buying there was less support in the local market. Spinners were said to be buying on a scale down and there was also considerable cov- ering by old shorts, which served to check the decline for while around .42c for December and January. but the market broke through the point of selling later in the day when Wall street became heavy seller and southern offerings appeared to be increasing. January contracts closed at l0.35c, or 24 points under the high level of the morning.
 Reports from Memphis said that export CTS were practically out of the spot mar ket and it was umoed around the local ring that those advices, combined with the recent favorable weather had shaken the confidence of old longs and that much of the days selling had reported lquida- ton of old accounts.

FALLING OFF IN
 EXPORT DEMAND
Wheat Closes Nervous at a Decline of 7-Sc to 1 1-4c
 Net Loss

Chicago October 15.-Falling off in ex- port demand today pulled wheat down. Tho close was nervous at decline of 7s@1hc net loss. Corn varied from 1kc down to shade advance. oats isc of to a sixteenth up and provisions strag- gling between 21sc lower and rise of 171kc.
 Decided weakness in all European wheat markets caused free unloading at the start. Short sellers took hand and there was no rally until reports came that servia and Bulgaria would probably declare war before night. The upturn. however, was small In comparison with the early decline and bearish advicea from Winnipeg told of foreign sell ing of futures there. December delivery ranged from o3iae to 94hc, with latest transactions at 94c, a decrease of 1sc under last night.
 Fine weather and the weakness of wheat tended to ease off the corn mar ket. There was good deal of cover ing by shorts in the final hour. Decem- Der fuctuated between 527sQ53c and 5S1hd 539sc, closing steady a shade net lower at 5SssG53ibc. Cash grades were slow. No. ? yellow was quoted at G464Ac.
 Oats sagged with other grain and be- cause export call was poor.
 Upper and lower levels touch by De- cember were S2s4c and S2lAc. with the close at the first named figures, net loss of a shade.
 Firmness in the hog market exerted greater influence on provisions then the downward course of cereals. The best advance was for December lard, 171ec.
 Future quotations were as follows:

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, October 15.-Cotton fu- lures opened steady unchanged to 3 points down compared with the clos ing level of yesetrday. Cables were nor high enough but were balanced to some extent by a poor weather map and an- other storm warning for the Texas coast. Around the opening prices were 6 points down but little later the market braced on the forecast of un- settled weather for the western belt and reports of damage in the eastern belt through too much moisture At the end of the first half hour of bus mess prices were unchanged to 1 point up compared with the final local prices of yesterday.
 Near the middle q the day the list developed an undertone of easiness This came out through pessimistic cables from Europe regarding the Bal kan situation. There were reports from Liverpool that Turkey was annulling orders for cloths placed with Man chester mills. This stimulated selling for both accounts and the market fell off until at noon the trading months were 12 to 14 points under the last prices of yesterday.

Fish Receipts Heavier Than

Trade on Morris avenue improves as the week goes on. The cool weather has had bracing effect on the some what indifferent trade of the past few weeks. Prices yesterday were un- changed and the receipts were plenti- full
 With the fish dealers shipments are coming in daily and the supply is ample for much larger demand than Is evident at the present time. The grain dealers are enjoying a brisk trade this week at steady prices and the same may be said of the poultry and egg dealers. Creamery products re- tain steadiness of prices and fair trade The meat men reported mo more ad- yances and none are anticipated for some time as the last advances were very sharp. The produce dealers are enjoying a brisk trade with firm prices and fine stock of vegetables and fruits on hand.

GAINS NUMEROUS
 ON STOCK EXCHANGE
Interest Centers Largely in
 Metal Issues and Tobacco Specialties

New York, October 15.-Taking it's cue from abroad, where all bourses are stronger as a result of support rendered by substantial interests, the stock mar ket here opened active and almost buoy ant. Gains of 1 to points were numer- ous in the first hour. these being ex- tended in some instances at midday, when interest centered largely in the metal issues and tobacco specialties.
 In the final hour. however, a selling movement of moderate proportions wiped out the greater part of the early gains and the market closed with an irregular undertone. The setback coincided with advices from Chicago that the wound suf- fered by Colonel Roosevelt was a serious one,
 The better showing of our securities and other foreign centers was followed by some buying for these accounts in the course of the day. but this was more than reutralized by local realizing for profits.
 The strength-of the coppers was direct ly traceable to the sharp rebound in these metals abroad. and to the belief that the directors of the Amalgamated company. at their meeting later this week, will advance the present rate of dividend.
 Respecting the situation in eastern Eu- rope. international banking houses were in receipt of cables to the effect that ne- got.ationS now pending are likely to pro- duce favorable results before the end of the week. Favorable reports regarding the Turllo-Italan situation also had their effect.
 Money was more abundant in this mar ket today, much of tho new supply com ing from out of town sources. Never thcless the tone held firm with a slight advance in 90 day accounts
 Bonds were firm but without special feature. Total sales, par value, S2050,- GOO.
 United States government bonds were unchanged on call.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, october -tspecial) )-Un- der disappointing advices from the for eign markets cotton has declined today to a new low level. closing heavy with the slocal trade again holding most pes- simistlc views
 It is difficult to find any one who does not think that the pressure to sell cot ton in the south will overcome the de- mand from spinners who are now about the only support to the market. They keep buying on scale down, though not progressively. because they too feel that in the present pessmistic tone of the trade they will be able to buy at a lower price.
 To supply the demand from spinners the hedge selling was not sufficient, and the local interests have sold heavily They point to the large receipts in Texas and to the Balkan war as factors which overcome the very large consumption of cotton Orders for cotton goods from China for delivery up to next summer are being received
 Liverpool is due to come about points lower In the morning.
