SP |NNERS CAUSE
COTTON DECLINE
Heavy Selling Upsets Early
Gain Caused by Shorts Cow
ering Their Margins.

NEW YORK, Oct. 11.-Cooler weather
steadied the cotton market today and the
opening tone was firm with prices ranging
from | to points below last nights close.
There was heavy buying at the outset by
shorts, who feared to let their short lines
run over the holidays as the weather
map indicated a cold wave coming on the
Western states tonight After the call
prices had made a further upward move
ment, being to points over the previ-
Gus close.
About the only feature in the market
during the early trading was the short
covering and aggTessiVeness of leading
spot interests. Also the ring crowd was
at times a good buyer, but later turned
seller in connection with commission
houses, which have been free sellers
throughout the day, and prices lost all
of the initial gains.
Later during the afternoon trading a
sudden realizing movement prevailed,
based upon the late government weather
map forecasting favorable weather over
the belt, and prices quickly responded,
losing the entire gains and dropping about
IL points below the opening quotations.
Those who were good buyers yesterday,
and also some OF the people who bought
on predictions of colder weather in the
Western states, liquidated their holdings,
which, it was said, caused the down
ward movement
Heavy spinners' takings caused further
selling during the last half hour of trad
ing, causing prices at the close to show a
net decline of IL to 10 points from the
final quotations of Thursday.
