FUTURE TRADING
ABOUT AS USUAL
Prices Lower But New Or
leans Market Has Good
Undert0ne

New Orleans, November 1.-THE re-
sumption of future trading in cotton In
this market today. while marked with un-
usual features in regard to visitors dec
orations on the exchange and attendance.
was not accompanied by anything out OF
the ordinary in the transactions them
selves. Prices worked lower, but the
market at all times had good undcrtone
and offerings were well received
From the highest of the day to the
lowest. in-both cold and new styles OF
contracts, there was a drop of from 10 to
"a points. This was not a wide drop, con-
sidering everything. and. by many brokers
and traders, was looked upon as due more
to the settling OF values to stable basis
than to anything else
Some little confusion was caused by the
two forms of contracts one representing
the liquidation of old business, entered
into before the market closed last July,
and the other the changes made In order
to meet the provisions OF the federal cot
ton futures law The market gradually
will pass wholly into the new style. Old
style January closed at a loss of about Il
points compared with the final prices In
the liquidation trades of last week. Spot
markets were steady and unchanged.

New Orleans Futures

New Orleans. November 16.-With the
future markets again in operation, sta
tistics relating to cotton were more eag-
erly scanned today and more closely an
alyzed. On the whole, the local trade
felt inclined to be optimistic with the way
cotton was moving, although there were
some unfavorable spots in the figures.
Perhaps the figures most commented on
were from Galveston, that point reporting
1900 bales on shipboard as against 5000
a year ago This was generally taken to
mean that exports of Texas cotton were
about to increase materially.
Total foreign exports for the day were
| 81, 1885 bales. which seems to assure that
exports for the season up to the end of
this week will be over 100000 bales.
The heavier export movement continues to
swell stocks held at ports which tonight
are within less than 1900 bales of the
100000 mark. At the same time stocks
at the three most important interior points
are exactly 500 900 bales. The report per-
sists that the piling up of stocks In the
interior is largely due to storing of spin
ners against future wants. Bears, on the
other hand, think large stocks in the cot
ton belt eventually will lead to heavy
hedge selling of futures

SALLY PRESIDENT
IN BIRMINGHAM
N. P. Carish Stops Over
With Baugh En- Route \
From Omaha

N. P. Carish of Savannah, president
OF the South Atlantic league, was in
Birmingham yesterday en- route home
from Omaha. where the meeting of all
leagues in the country was held. Mr.
Carish accompanied r. IT, Baugh, pres
i1ent of the Birmingham club. The head
of the South Atlantic talked interest
ingly of conditions in his circuit and
spoke OF the innovations which are be-
ing tried out there.
"The South Atlantic Is growing ev-
cry year" he said. THE season just
closed was very successful and we be-
licve that 1915 Will be as good or bet
ter.
I'VE are trying out a number OF In
rovations in the league in the effort
to heighten the comfort of the patrons
and smooth out the rough points N
the game. Our effort has been direct
ed toward the saving of time.
For instance. we have circles drawn
near the plate, out of the dancer zone
of course, and when man takes his
place at bat the player to follow him
takes up his position In the circle with
IT'S DAT READY, his saves tlfne DS-
cause it eliminates the minutes con-
sumed by the players swinging their
bats, adjusting their shoes and other
preliminaries.
Another thing we have done Ia to
instruct the umpires that they must
stand at the plate and have the team
captains bring them tho batteries and
lne-ups. This saves the umpire from
going to the benches and perhaps start
Ing something. The umpires announce
any changes in the lineup made dur
Ing the game.
Another step we have taken is t.
allow the clubs to suggest the names
of men for umpires. BY this method we
try to secure the men best known for
their ability and generally we get the
best ones"
Mr.. Carish was shown over the News
paper club and the Tutwller hotel oy
Mr.. Baugh and was enthusiastic In
speaking of both He went to Column

FEDERAL RESERVE
SYSTEM FEATURE
ReOpening of Cotton Ex-
change Also Influences
Financial District

New York, November DEMONSTRATION
of the federal reserve system and the
formal reopening of the cotton exchange
and the curb market We're outstanding
factors of influence in the financial dis-
trict today. From all accounts the new
banking laws were put into effect at all
of the Il regional centers with mini
mum of confusion. The Importance OF
this undertaking may be judged from the
fact that the new system embraces more
than 5000 institutions, having aggregate
capital and surplus of Sl,7S3,0oO,0oo, ana de-
posts of 1926, 000. 000
These new conditions found direct re-
Election, not only in improved sentiment,
but in an increased demand for invest
ment securities at prices generally higher
than those recorded since July 80 last. In
the unofficial market some active stocks
were quoted at figures close to the final
prices of that day.
Bond and note dealers reported larger
pover-counter' business and orders from
out Of town were declared of greater vol
anne. Some important financial interests
were negotiated for municipal and state
Scans on a 8 per cent basis and new
sinancing by prominent railways was saio
10 be under consideration. There were tne
usual rumors of forthcoming foreign
loans, none of which materialized.
Exchange on London was decidedly
easier as a result of freer offerings ana
absence of bids. No further change IN
rates for long time domestic loans ano
commercial paper was noted.
In several lines of industry notably
eteel and iron. there were signs of better
ment.

DOWNWARD SWING
NOTED IN WHEAT
Caused by Immense Gain
Shown in the Visible
Supply

Chicago, November 16.-Surprise over an
immense gain shown in the United States
visible supply gave a downward swing
today to wheat Closing quotations were
steady. but 1z9ssc to s4aTsc under Satur-
day night. Corn suffered a net loss of Il
@1isc and oats of sc to ss@izc. In pro-
visions the outcome varied from &c de-
cline to an advance of 2iac.
Wheat traders were unprepared for a
fvisible supply enlargement of 5,5s5,0oo
bushels. The aggregate of the domestic
supply now in store Is the largest In
years. Receipts continued heavy today at
the primary terminals reaching 3,00s,ooc
bushels, as against 1,S25.o00 bushels last
year.
Important buying of December and May
wheat on direct foreign orders upheld the
market until the final hour.
Colder weather north, which favored
the handling of the new crop, had a bear
ish influence on corn.
Oats sagged with corn. There seemed to
be something of a let in the call for
cash oats.
Provisions averaged lower. Packers APP
peared chiefly responsible for holding the
market steady.

TRADING IS QUIET
ON OPENING DAY
Big Attendance When New
York Cotton Exchange
ReOpens

New York November 1.-THE first day $
business ON the New York Cotton ex-
change since the outbreak of war last
July was considered generally satisfac-
tory. There was not the rush of invest
ment buying some traders had antici-
pated, but neither was there any great
volume of selling here as a hedge against
southern spots. and trading was compar-
stively quiet.
In addition to the uncertainty as TO
values under war conditions, general bush
ness doubtless was restricted by lack OF
familiarity with the new contract.
There was big attendance at the open
ing and every indication of enthusiasm.
There was no excitement, and 1t was soon
evident that the financial arrangements
of the special committee for taking care
of the old contract interest had relieved
the trade Of all apprehension regarding
the new fluctuations
December contracts sold below 750c on
the call, thus passing automatically from
the control OF the corporation to the syn
dictate under the agreements recently con-
summated and 1t was reported that men,
bers of the syndicate were moderate sell
ers on the decline 7.ssc to Z. 2Sc for that
position. Trading In the later months was
almost entirely confined to new style con-
tracts, but prices also eased off in SYM
pathy with New Orleans, with January
selling down a6 points and later deliveries
some 10 to IS points from the high level
OF the morning. Some early buyers turned
sellers on the decline, owing to the alb
sence of a more active investment de-
mand, and theer was some southern sell
ing which may have possibly been against
spots, although with the exception of Au-
gusta, the interior markets so far as re-
ported up to the close were generally
steady. The close was steady at the de-
cline

The markets reopened this morning as
had been announced. just prior to the
opening call 1t was made known by the
corporation which took over the dis
tressed cotton at &c, hve underwriting syn
dicates of members of the exchange
would receive at 7.50c only "a per cent of
the subscriptions, the balance having
been disposed of before the opening. In
itial prices were rather higher than the
trade had expected and despite the nat
ural liquidation In December the market
had steady undertone In the early after
noon, some Is points below the opening.
Some hedge selling Is expected from the
south at this level. but there was EVIL
dence OF an active investment demand
and rather to the surprise Of the trade
there was some buying by houses with
continental connections. 1t will naturally
take several days for the trade at large to
secure its bearings and particularly to as
certain the attitude of the south.
