COTTON NERVOUS
AND IRREGULAR
Covering by Early Sellers
Helps Afternoon Rally.
Close Firm

New York October S.-The cotton mar
lSet was nervous and irregular today with
local traders evidently disposed TO take
a bearish view of southwestern weather
conditions and the spot situation, but ag-
gressive selling was restricted by appre-
tensions of storm damage in the eastern
belt and the appearance of trade buying
on declines. Covering by early sellers
helped an afternoon rally, and the market
closed steady. net points lower to 1
points higher.
There seemed to be a good many over
night selling orders around the ring at
the start and first prices were 3 to s
points lower. Offerings were encouraged
by easier Liverpool cables and better
weather in the southwest than expected,
but reports of a storm off the south At
lantlc coast caused considerable nervous
ness and prices soon rallied to about the
closing figures of last night on covering.
This bulge ran the market into increased
offerings, however, and it soon weakened
under active foreign, southern and local
selling. Some stop orders were uncov-
cred on the decline, which carried prices
OH 10 Id. use lot JaiiudlSf VI apout on
points below the high records or last
week This break of 81 per bale attracted
a good deal of realizing by recent SELL
ers, as we'll as some renewal of bull sup
port, and the market later ruled steadier
on reports that the Atlantic storm has
reached the coast and might cause dam
aging rains in the interior. Active months
worked from to points above the clos
ing figures of last night during the after
noon but selling continued active enough
to cause further irregularity' in the late
trading, with the close 3 or points Off
from the best. An Arkansas spot man was
quoted as estimating the crop at l2,SoO,ooo
bales, including linters, but these hgures
seemed to attract comparatively little
attention and there was much talk
around the ring indicating somewhat IN
creased views of the yield, as well as ex-
pectations of increased spot offerings

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, October S.--(Special.) Heavy
liquidation continued during the morning
until prices were close to 10 cents, when
the trade found their cotton was passing
into the hands of spinners and their brok-
ers which gave the market strength
that has been wanting since the bureau
report. Liverpool was again the weak
point due, we are informed, to southern
offerings. Just at the close of our mar
ket 1t was sold by European houses, SO
that while it closed steady it was no.
quite at the best figure. 1t was higher
than last night excepting on December
most of the long selling seemed 20 be
in that position. The European houses
are very bearish believing the crop un-
derestimated Our local trade think the
liquidation has enabled the spinners tc
buy large quantity of cotton and that
The large shorts have not covered.

STOCK SENTIMENT
DECIDEDLY bEAR|SH
(.
Market Nervous All Morn
ing-Steel and Other
Leaders Drop

Kew York, October S.-Aggresve SELL
hlg of stocks was resumed today, and no
effective resistance was offered. The
pivotal stock was Union Pacific, the acute
weakness of which turned the whole mar
ket downward after fairly steady open
ing. Sentiment was decidedly bearish
and the break in Union Pacific was all
that was needed - concentrate specula-
tive activity on the short side.
The market was nervous air morning,
and before noon Union Pacific had been
forced down approximately 4 points
Reading, Amaleamated, Steel Canadian
Pacific and Lehign Valley We're 2 points
lower, and among less active shares there
We're losses of l to 4 points Pressure re-
Taxed in the afternoon and speculation be-
came quiet
Steel broke through So. showing a loss
of over 10 points, from its top prlee of a
fortnight ago American Telephone Sc
curities again were heavy. The common
fell to 123A, the lowest since 1909, and a
decline of 29s nthe week.
The particular weakness of Union Pa
cific could be traced to no specific devel-
opment 1t was generally ascribed to the
belief that no announcement would be
made in the immediate future regarding
an extra cash distribution, which had
been predicted by many traders. The
early break was Influenced also by SELL
ing from London, said to be due to the
closing out of holdings by a large trader
who was in difficulties.
The expected decrease in copper stocks,
amounting to over S,500,000 pounds, was
shown In the monthly statement. All
though the report fully verified optimistic
predictions, it was without effect on the
market. Even the copper shares failed
to improve. Bonds were lower, with
more liberal offerings of some industrial
and convertible issues. Total sales, par
value, $l394,OO0. United States bonds were
unchanged on ell.

Bic CANADIAN CROP
CAUSES WHEAT HALT
Market Closes Weak $50
Under Previous Night.
Corn Drags

Chicago, October S.-Surprising contln-
uance of heavy receipts of wheat in the
Canadian northwest more than off
set today a decrease In arrivals this side
of the border. Largely in consequence the
market closed weak. sc under last night
Corn showed a net decline of AQ15c and
oats a drop of 1s9a4c; provisions wound
up with 71sQsoc advance
Canadian reports that the big movement
of wheat to terminal points threatened to
last for some time did not affect the mar
ket here until after there had been
rally due to falling off of receipts at
kotas. 1t was said that the Canadian
shipments had already congested the ia
cilities at lake receiving points in the
east. Good crop prospects in Australia
and Argentina counted in the bears
favor
Dry weather advices from India and
news of an active demand from France
had considerable to do with early firm
ness of wheat In addition, there was a
fairly good milling call here and else
where, but in the end the dominating in
huence proved to be the unlocked for de-
velopments beyond the Canadian line.
Corn evinced a dragging tendency after
an early upturn ascribed to the temporary
strength of wheat. Fine weather and
slackness of shipping demand worked
against the bulls. Besides industrial
users of Argentine corn now arriving at
New York reported that none Of it was
bad enough to reject. Oats eased off
with other grain. 1t was said Canadian
oats were not competing to such an i'm
portant extent as many traders had been
led to believe
tive hand in buying lard which another
conspicuous packer sold The battle be-
tween the packers resulted in favor of the
bull side
