ST. LOUIS CASH QUOTATIONS. .

CHICAGO, March 2O.-Whear displayed
considerable strength at the opening this
morning when prices were Is a &c higher.
There was disposition, however, on the
part Of these with profits to secure them
and this caused partial price setback.
The May ranged between S93s 4S95sc and
the July between SO to 1914 &c. North
western receipts were larger than a year
ago, but smaller than week ago Ship
ments from that country were nearly
o,0OOO0O bushels for a short week, and
the Australian shipments we're also lib
eral at 100000 bushels for short week.
There is a cold wave in the northwest
and il is coming this way The buying
was led by shorts early.
Corn, was up Is a &c and firm.
oats were + lfc higher in sympathy
Hogs were lower at the yards and pro-
vision prices were weak, with May pork
sharply lower
Shorts in wheat were on the buying
side during the last half hour Of to-day's
session in order to even up their position
over the holiday. and as the wheat was
leid tightly the market was bid upward
in a lively manner-May advancing to
90l4 July 10 81 q a ~, and September at
S9l4, with best prices fairly well sus-
tanned at the close and showing net
gains of u TO &c for the day
The May future displayed the greater
strength Of the list, as shorts seemed to
want that month in larger quantities
than the others. There was no export
demand to speak Of, only 1000 bushels
changing hands at Omaha, which will be
sent abroad via the gulf
Corn closed 4 TO &c higher and showed
great strength. One of the, features of
the corn market was the selling of the
May futures by Clement Curtis, who are
supposed-gto be acting for the cotton
crowd, who are long a big line of May
in the Chicago market.
oats were up Il to &c.
Provisions veered around and closed
strong and higher under short covering
over the holidays
Cash sales of wheat were 10 900 bush
els; corn $4,000 bushels; oats small.

GRAIN MARKET OPINIONS.

CHICAGO. March 2O.-Bartlett- Frazier
Co: Wheat: We are rather inclined to
look for a somewhat easier market to-day
as shorts covered freely on yesterdays
advance and there is nothing of a par
ticular buHish character in the news OF
the morning.
Corn: We. are inclined to believe that
on the late advance there was fair sell
ing BY leading, longs, The market has
had a good rally and any further advance
must come from speculative buying as
shorts are well in.
Oats: We can see no reason for any
further advance.
Provisions. The market is showing
more scattered liquidation and less act

conditions overnight were 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;
no storms.
Indications are for unsettled weather
coming on the western and north CEN
trail belt, with probably some scattered
rains, but generally fair in the eastern
States. except the Carolinas coast Sec
tiCns. which are likely to have more
rain to-day. clearing Friday. Liverpool
about met our advance, but lost il near
ly all on learning that there was no
storm In the eastern States.
Our market opened about 3 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

The big drop in spot prices in the

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

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-With the excep-
ton Of October, which opened points
higher, the cotton market opening was
disappointing in view Of the frmer 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-
0lcted on the eastern coast to mate
rlalize. Later brokers representing the
uptown interests were among the best
sellers
The market showed considerable
weakness in the absence Of support.
Inc 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
De raised as the season advances. This
Ieehng Will undoubtedly increase the
| snort interest, which is believed to be
already large.
During the forenoon October fell to
1884 for loss of 20 points from the
initial range. December dropped Il and
January fell below the 1Sc level to 1895,
| and there was plenty of cotton for sale
at below 13c for January.
Despite the continuous decline in
values, bull leaders are still confident
| OF hBher prices. In some conserva-
| tive quarters the belief is that the mar
| ket Is pretty well liquidated, and that
there is a 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 flooded
with selling orders and january dropped
TO 1890; October 1925, and December
1909. This showed 80 points decline
since the bear movement begun. just
before this outburst of liquidation the
market found some support around 13
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 a 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 20, 900 bales by
Gwathmey & CO.; about 20, 900 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 buver. Gumoans bought ID.
900 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 gen
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 12,S00.000 bales.
1t is thought by some that the mar
ket is again beginning to advance to-
ward lac, but others regard IL 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. Cone and
Weld were also fair buyers of other
positions.
