It is more than likely that all future meetings of the stockholders and direc tors of the Alabama Great Southern rail road will be held in Birmingham. Tn a formal statement issued yesterday iron, the local executive department that was indicated.

PRICE PROFESSIONS
 ARE MADE IN COTTON
Declines Are Re ported in the Interior.
 Receipts Light

New Orleans, October s.-Further price recessions were noted in the cotton mar ket today as the result of pressure of the new crop to find an outlet. Impor- tant declines were reported in the in- terior and local spots were marked down ls of a cent a pound. The January op- ton was traded in at 7.50c, which was the price of middling cotton in the spo. market January has lost something over 1ac, or $2.50 a bale, in the last 10 days.
 Receipts of cotton were not heavy any where, but the export movement fell off somewhat and sentiment was more bear ish in consequence. England took 11,90J bales from various ports, put otherwise

NEW YORK MONEY
 MARKET EASIER
Loans Being Made at Seven Per Cent on Good
 Collateral

New York, October S.-Further easing of local monetary conditions was indicated today, loans being made at per cent. Interior banks were lenders of so-day money on high-grade collateral at per cent. Western banks also were buyers of bonds and other investment issues
 Another abrupt advance in foreign ex- change was a natural result of the large purchases of bills made by bankers for remittance to London for payment of 9o-day loans contracted last July. The total of these commitments doubtless Is unusually large, inasmuch as very easy rates prevailed when these loans were negotiated.
 Cables and sight drafts were a cent per pound sterling higher, and the s1oo.ooo, GOO gold pool received numerous applications for exchange. For the most part, only those of mercantile character were &C., cepted. Other exchange brokers dealt extensively in grain and cotton bills for Paris and Berlin, the latter by way of Amsterdam.
 Further large shipments of gold to Ot- tawa, where they will replenish the cred it's of the Bank of England. were made in connection with the recent sale of the New York city per cent notes. Ex- ports for this account now aggregate fully s15.00o,Ooo.
 The weekly statement of the Bank of England shows an increase of s19,2O2, ,0oo in gold over the previous week, to which may be added almost SS,000,000 more of the precious metal, which was received after the publication of the statement. The banks reserve increased almost S2o,- c00,O00 with a substantial gain in its lia- bility reserves.
 Otherwise the news from London was less assuring, trading in securities be- ing restricted because of the news from Antwerp. From Paris, however, came word of an advance in rentes to almost the highest quotation since the outbreak of the war.
 Definite announcements of continued price cutting added to the existing de- pression in the steel and iron trade

WHEAT ADVANCES:
 CLOSE IS STEADY
Revival of Export Business Gives Decided Upward
 Turn

Chicago, October s.-Revival of ex- port business today gave the wheat market decided upward turn. Clos ing prices were steady at ssc to 2c net advance. Corn finished 1kc to X @ $e up. oats with gain of Ao tossc, and provisions the same as last night to 4oc higher.
 Liberal export sales of wheat were announced as having been made here, at Duluth and at Winnipeg. The Chi cago sales, which were to be shipped by way of the gulf, amounted to 800, = 900 bushels. It was only. by degrees, however, the extent of the transatlantic purchasing became known, and al- though the market opened somewhat higher in sympathy with Liverpool, prices for while were rather un- steady
 Lightness of country offerings helped the bulls in the last half Of the session. Some attention was also given by the fact that the Chicago stocks are 5.00o,o00 bushels less than a year ago
 Corn advanced with wheat after a moderate early decline. due to bearish government report
 strength in oats came chiefly from big sales to shippers. It was said that So0,oo0 bushels were taken for export, although provisions at outset were weak but later scored the best ad- vance in sometime Shorts were in- fluenced by the strength of grain and by the backwardness of speculation. fol
