NEW HIGH RECORDS
MADE FOR SEASON

New York, October 31.-After making
new high records for the season, the
cotton market became nervous and I'M
| settled during the past week owing to
more or less general liquidation COM
bined with local or southern pressure
and selling here against purchases In
Liverpool, which some have attributed
TO an idea that low grade crop might
weigh more heavily against New York
than the foreign market. Weather and
crop news has been of a general bull
lsh average, but failed to inspire much
fresh buying above ID cents for Decem-
Der, and expectations of increased spot
offerings with clearing weather in the
belt probably encouraged much of the
subsequent selling. On break of near
| ly "a cent from the recent high fig
ures, however, trade interests were re-
| ported to be buying more freely, which,
with claims that interior spot holders
were not offering their cotton at the
| decline, caused rallies during Fridays
trading. Notwithstanding the early APP
pearance of killing frost. individual
crop views still show wide difference
| of opinion.
| According to a prominent local sta
cotton ginned to October Is, might be
taken as confirming crop views of
| around 100000 bales, while the def
mite estimates published during the
! " elk have>ranged from 13,500,O00 to a.
| 200, 900 bales These figures include the
estimates of leading English statis-
| tician placing the American crop at
13,S70,000 bales and probable require
ments at 14.726,000 bales.
Such comparisons have naturally Gre
ated a good deal of bullish sentiment
as to the ultimate course of prices, but
there are not few who claim that the
crop is being under-estimated and that
The actual consumption of American
cotton may fall short of bullish views
particularly as the supply of foreign
growth is still expected to exceed last
seasons. These occasional bearish views
of the crop, combined with unsettled
conditions in Mexico and financial trou-
bles in Bombay nave helped to unsettle
the market after its recent big adj
vance, but according to bullish traders
Fridays rally suggested that the SELL
{ ing had been more In the expectation
of temporary spot weakness than Of
permanently lower prices.

COTTON MARKET
RECEIVERS DECLINE
Sellers Try to Recover Cot

the Losses

New Orleans, October 31.-The cotton
market today recovered the loss 1t made
yesterday. Sellers of yesterday tried to
take profits this morning, but found that
their purchases put prices up on them; in
the afternoon they had lost the idea of
profits and were trying to get back their
cotton without paying losses This buy

market very steady undertake., and kept
it at the advance throughout the session.
At the highest the trading months were

The market opened steady at a rise of 2
to points on buying orders from shorts.
Cables were no better than due, and the
weather map was called favorable as,
while weather over the cotton region was
cold, no rain at all fell, and 1t was not
considered that low temperatures would
retard picking There was comparatively
little cotton for sale at any time, ana
prices made quick response to the demand.
In the morning session prices at their
highest were II to IS points up. The close
was practically at the highest levels. the

the close was steady.
In the afternoon the large mill takings
Tor the week were help to the market.
Even bulls We're surprised at the size OF
the out of sight movement. Hester put

The exchange will be closed tomorrow

STRENGTH SHOWN IN
. THE WHEAT MARKET.
Radical Falling off in World
Shipments-The Closing
Prices Advance

Chicago, October S1.-Wheat today
showed strength largely because of a
radical falling off in world shipments.
Closing prices were steady at a shade to
9sc net advance Corn lost 1s6D14d2sc and
oats A@9sc. In provisions, the market in
general finished with a range of 71Ac off
to 12l2c up. October pork was an excep-
ton, being hammered down Zoe.
Total worlds shipments of wheat We're
only 100000 bushels against l2,69o,OOO
bushels last week and 11,5S4000 bushels a
year ago. Other bullish causes that start
ed prices sharply upward at the outset
inclrded the tightness of December con-
tracts in the English trade. smaller re-
ceiots northwest and renewal of I'M
easiness over weather and crop condi-
tions in India and Argentina.
Messages from Buenos Ayres reiterat-
ing that the outlook was for at least an
average yield of wheat, led to tempo
rary setback in prices The effect was
increased through bearish announcements
in regard to winter crop progress in the
United States. Such reasons, however,
did not appear to have lasting effect, so
that bull sentiment again was upper
most at the close with the December OPP
ton especially strong.
Corn was sold heavily on account of
weather more favorable than had been
looked for. At times though the market
bulged in sympathy with wheat and in
consequence of improved industrial and
shipping demand. Sales by the country
were notably small and current arrivals
INSIGNIFICANT.
Canadians oats were being bought here
for storage and meanwhile more being
hedged in the pit by sales for May de-
livery. This process more than offset
the fact that rural shipments were ex-
tremely light and that the south was out
bidding Chicago in a good share of the
territory which usually markets here.
Except for liquidatng sales of nearby
deliveries, the provision trade averaged
stronger. Grain interests took more of
the offerings than usual.

CALL MONEY SCARS
HIGHEST OF YEAR
Rate Advances to 10 Per
Cent; Spectators Not In
clined to Deal Heavily

New York, October 3t.-With call money
fuctuating between and 10 per cent
today, spectators were not inclined to
deal heavily in stocks. Renewals were
made at 6 per cent COMPARED with 8 per
cent yesterday, and the rate then rose
to 10 per cent, the highest of the year.
Offerings were enlarged at this figure, and
the market relaxed. The high point to-
day marked the stiffest rate for call
money since last December, when II per
. cent was quoted.
Bankers spoke of the furry in call
money as of only passing Importance, due
to conditions not unusual at this period
of the year. With the November pay
lnents of dividends and interest out Of
the way, It is expected that the market
will relax to a normal basis. The effect
of collections for the November settle
ment was increased by the calling of loans
to arrange for payment of S30,00o,0O0 In
terborough Rapid Transit 5s, called for
retirement tomorrow. Coincident with the
rise in call money there was a tightening
of rates for time funds.
In the face of these conditions in the
money nafkSl tne Stoch ihitihet S'oq"I-

cidedly pessimistic. Affairs in Mexico
