BETTER WEATHER
SENDS COTTON OFF
Bulls Look On, Giving Liquidation
Its Full Course-Crop Esti-
mates Being Increased. .

NEW YORK, Oct. with the excep-
ton of October, which opened points
higher, the cotton market opening was
disappointing in view of the firmer ca
bles. First prices showed losses of 3
TO points and at the end OF the first
twenty minutes the entire list was I'M
der general liquidation. Commission
houses were apparently the leading
sellers. The crowd was inclined to sell
the market on the failure of storms pre-
olcted on the eastern coast to mate
Tlallze. Later brokers representing the
uptown interests were among the best
sellers
The market showed considerable
weakness in the absence of support
me weather conditions overnight were
again favorable, with indications point
ing to perfect growing weather over the
entire belt. This increased the belief
by the bearish element that the crop
estimates are too low and they will
be raised Is the season advances This
feeling will undoubtedly increase the
already large
During the forenoon October fell to
1898 Tor a loss of 20 points from the
lhltlal range. December dropped u and
January fell below the 1Sc level to 1895,
ana there was plenty of cotton for sale
at below 13c for January.
DeSplte the continuous decline in
OF higher prices In some conserva-
tive quarters the belief is that the mar
ket is pretty well liqudated, and that
there Is big short interest existing
which in all probability will run to cover
should anything unfavorable occur in
the eastern belt in the next few days.
Around noon the market was hooded
with selling orders and January dropped
TO 1880; October 1926, and December
l3Og. This showed 80 points decline
since the bear movement begun. Just
before this outburst of LIQUIDATION the
market found some support around 10
cents for january, which came from
scattered spot interests Bull leaders
looked on in disgust.
Bears were encouraged in their bold
attack by rumor that crop estimates
are being increased on account of the
propitious weather conditions Later in
the day some buying principally from
shorts who were satisfied with their
prohts carried prices few higher and
the market closed steady with prices at
a net DECLINE of 10 to % points from
the closing quotations of Wednesday.

COTTON GOSSIP

Selling of about 10000 bales by
Gwathmey e. CO.; about 10000 bales by
Riordan and scattered selling by New
Orleans, Hentz. Liverpool, sent the
market into a new low before noon yes
terday but the sales evidently went into
good hands as the market took on
a much better tone in the afternoon
and recovered the early decline. Rior-
dan turned buyer. Gumoans bought TO-
600 January and March around 1910,
probably for the uptown interests
Shearson bought about 10000 March.
Waters and Hicks bought and there was
a lot of scattered covering and buying
for a turn by commission houses gem
orally. The only news of Importance
was that giving the progress of the
storm off the Carolinas and bulls made
most of it.
John Boyle in letter to w. p. Brown
printed in the Pearsalls bulletin esti-
mated the crop at Il, 100000 bales.
1t is thought by some that the mar
ket is again beginning to advance to-
ward lac, but others regard II as due
mostly to Wall street covering and think
that when this demand is satisfied ii will
require some very NnfavOrable weather
to sustain the advance. At the same
time conservative traders are not in
clined to go short, except for quick
turns because we are approaching the
frost scare period.
Hicks and Mitchell wer the leading
buyers to-doy.
The ring commission houses and the
uptown crowd were the best sellers.
Mitchell bought October. Gone and
Weld were also fair buyers of other
positions.
Carrollton, Ga. wires: Cotton re-
ceipts breaking old records; 703 bales
received last Saturday. between 500 and
600 bales sold around 14c."
Dalton, Ga. wires: THE unusually
early cotton season in this section is
shown by the report prepared for the
Government relative to the ginning tig-
ures prior to September %. This year
there were 1872 bales ginned prior to that
date. as compared to II ginned prior to
September 60. 1912 With the PRESENT
weather conditions prevailing. all cotton
will be open before the close Of the

NEW ORLEANS. oct 9-Weather
conditions overnight We're very favor
able, partly cloudy to fair over the en-
tire belt; warm weather; no rain in the
interior, except a little in Oklahoma,
but heavier rains in the Caro- ina coast
towns, caused by the small rain forma-
ton bordering on the Atlantic coast ;
TO storms.
Indications are for unsettled weather
coming on the western and north cen
I trail belt, with probably some scattered
rains, but generally fair in the eastern
States, except the Carolinas coast sec
lions, which are likely to. have more
rain to-day, clearing Friday. Liverpool
about met our advance, but lost 1t near
ly all on learning that there was no
storm in the eastern States.
Our market opened about 5 points
lower and was sustained for a while by
buying on the Governments forecast Of
unsettled weather for the western and
central States. but as soon as this de-
mand was satisfied, liquidation Of long
interests told on prices and the eXecu-
ton of stop loss orders at 13c for Jan
uary in New York brought July here
down to 1919.
The big drop in spot prices in the
Atlantics show spot pressure which
with good weather is likely to extend
to other points of the belt also.
