COTTON MARKET MAKES WIDE GAIN New Orleans Market Shows a Net Gain of s
 a Bale

New Orleans. October 4.-The widest advance of the season was made in the cotton market today, the strongest months at their highest showing a net gain of little more than s5 a a bale At the best of the session prices were 99 to 101 points over Wednesdays final figures The close was 97 to 99 over New high records for the season were made by most months
 From the opening gong to the close the market had a firm undertone and there was a demand which the ring found difficulty in satisfying. It was one of the quietest sessions in weeks. Few orders apepared to have accumu- lated in brokers hands during the three days in which business here was suspended through the cutting off of wire communications by the hurricane.
 The bureau reports on ginning and condition were more bullish than ex- pected, and they helped the rise. Much of the improvement. however. was in the nature of a reaction from the slump of last Wednesday, Many traders spoke of this decline as un- called for. At no time today did the market have a trace of selling power It was one of the stiffest advances in years. but it absolutely lacked sensa- tional features.

 Prominent men in any line of busi- ness besides banking believe that the war has offered us great opportunity to secure a fair share of the worlds commerce. Great Britain, Germany. France and Austria have all had their share--the first named more than any other because of its skill in making London the money center of the world. so that when purchases were made on foreign account in almost any market. payment was required in English pounds sterling. Great Britain was enabled to do this because it was the great money lender of the world. It had poured millions into new enterprises in the United States, in Mexico and the Central and South American states. Now these are turning to the United States just as Great Britain Is, and are dealing not in English pounds sterling. | put in good American dollars

SMALL COTTON CROP
 ADVANCES PRICES
Following Government Re- port a Sensational Ad-
 vance Is Made

New York October 1.-The governments s report pointing to the smallest cotton crop since 1909 was followed by a sensa- tional advance in the cotton market here today, with prices making new high rec ords for the season on excited general buying. January contracts sold up to l2s7e or n points above Saturdays clos ing figures, and more than s5 per bale above the low level of last Friday and nearly s19 per bale above the low level of last summer. Closing prices were some or 9 points off from the best under realizing, but the final tone was steady at net gain of from 5s to 66 points for the day
 The market ruled very steady before the official condition report was published. The census figures showing 100000 bales ginned to September 20 this year, com pared with s,S93,75S bales last season, were published at the opening and were con sicered in line with small estimates of the yield. Thiss as we'll as steady Liverpool cables, a firm stock market, and an un- favorable view of the weather map helped the opening advance of from 19 to 2l points here. and after reactions of or points. prices again worked up on bull ish southern crop and spot advices.
 Buying became a little more active as the time for the condition report drew near. and as soon as it made It's appear ance indicating a condition of CO.'S, or about per cent under average expecta- tic ns and a crop of only 10,900,000 bales, exclusive of linters, the market became even more excited ana active than at any time prviously since the bull move ment began. Liverpool sold considera ble cotton here on straddle account, and there was a good deal of realizing by re- cent buyers, but many old longs who had taken profits last week appeared to be rebuying. while the circulation of thu small crop figures and reports that there had been further deterioration since the report brought in a steadily broadening wire and commission house demand De- cember contracts sold up to 12 60c, March to Is. .l5c and May to 32o. or about 70 to "A points above last nights closing figures.

DECIDED ADVANCE
 IN WHEAT PRICES
Foreign Export Demand Af- fects Wheat Prices and
 Market Is Active

Chicago, October 4.-Word of large ex-
 port sales at the seaboard had much to do today with causing decided advance in wheat values here. The market closed unsettled, 1isc to 15sd2c net higher with December at 9Sssc and May at aeIsc. Final prices in corn varied from ie off to ssdf 1sc up; oats gained 1s@Nc and provisions showed an upturn ranging from 5c to
 421sc
 Active buying of the December option dwarfed everything else in the wheat pit. one flrm alone was credited with having purchased 100000 bushels of that monssass delivery. Most of this amount was said to be for seaboard account and was as- sociated with reports of heavy eastern trar sections in Manitoba wheat for ,Eu- rope, ana with noticeably improved transa tlantic demand TOT flour Other big purchases of December wheat here seemed to be connected with the high freight rates on the lakes from Duluth to chicago-rates which made the bringing Of spring wheat to Chicago an unusually expensive operation.
 Wet weather that threatened to delay
 tnreshing in the northwest gave to the
 wheat bulls an advantage right at the out
 set Liverpool advices telling of un- apated demand and of supplies being un- der requirements counted also against the
 pears and did a good deal to prevent any important downturn in the market
 Corn rose chiefly as result of the strength in wheat. Frost predictions in- duoec some buying early, but they seemed to be regarded as of greatly diminished significance compared with similar fore casts when the crop was less matured.
 Oats merely reflected the action of corn
 Rural offerings were rather small Snd eastern demand fair
 higier prices In the hog market lifted provisions. An excellent southern and ex- port inquiry for fresh meats had ayfur- ther strengthening effect.

EUFAULA
Delegation of Business Men Return From Panama City-Resdjustmcnt of Freight Rates Expected Soon.

Eufaula. October 3.-(Speciai)-A dele gation of representative Eufaula business men have just returned from Dothan and Panama City, Fla. delighted with that country and over the prospects of the railroad between these two points being projected north to Eufaula and probably to Atlanta. They made the trip by auto mobile to Dothan. and from there were taken on a special train to Panama City over the s5 miles of the railroad already constructed, and recently taken over by Asa G. candler. the Atlanta capitalist Inasmuch as the Mallory line is now run ming steamship service between Panama City and New Orleans, it Is believed that Panama City will rapidly become d big transportation center and that the rail- road will he It's natural feeder. The busl- ness interests of the city are not relaxing in their efforts to have the extension of the railroad to come by way of Enfaula, the logical shipping point in this section,
 Shippers and business men in general are looking forward with much interest to the readjustment of freight rates to Eti- faula soon to be made by the interstate commerce commission. Both railroad and river rates will be affected and 1t is be- lieved that when the new tariffs are an- nounced, the city will have some of the best freight rates in the state. this being competitive point.
