WALL STREET MARKET
= ERRAT|C, BUT STRONG

NEW YORK, October 15.-The imme-
date opening was attended with con-
siderable irregularity and many mar
row range fluctuations, with show of
strength here and there, and weak
spots just about as numerous. There
was nothing like the wild activity of
the last few months; nothing like the
strong trend toward higher values, and
yet. as stated before, there were strong
spots and active securities also.
The result of the first hours trading,
better than 100000 shares. while indi-
cative of more than 100000 shares
business for the session if continued,
was the smallest first hour record for
three weeks.
Declines outnumbered the advances
in this hour, indicating a continuation
OF Thursdays reactionary trend, but
where there were declines there were
sun1cient gains to cause operators to
hope for better market and to keep
interest in speculation stimulated
There was nothing in the news of the
day to cause uneasiness; nothing de-
cisive enough to bring radical action.
Rails Show Weakness.
1t was in the rails that the weakness
was shown. though with the irregu-
larity that characterized the trading
there were industrials also that were
very soft.
There was better show of strength
in the second hour of trading. and some
sharp recoverfes were noted.
New Haven came strong. with a full
recovery; Southern Pacific gained "
and other rails showed some trend
toward better action.
Further Gains Made.
AS the session advanced after the
close of the second hour there was
more activity, more regularity and
general trend toward higher values
all round.
In the first hour of the afternoon
trading had reached large proportions.
and even the rails shared in the up
ward turn, while specialties deveIoped
sharp gains here and there in the list.
throughout the forenoon, with a 2-point
advance to 93k, extended it's gain to
95k.
Baldwin Locomotive touched 1875: Cru
chile Steel made 2 u point improve
ment to 94k: Bethlehem Steel was at
the high, ATS. Mexican Petroleum sold
at 91A
In the rails Reading rose to 7sk, the
better part of a point advance; Union
Paclnc also gained point to 1861.
~S-~~ - az eiiC icCoNcTy
Steel Common Quite Active.
Steel common was quite active. and
while not displaying as much strength
as some Of the specialties, showed a
firm tone, the range being between s2b
and S3H, with S3k as the price near
the end Of the second hour of the aft
ernoon.
The copper stocks were higher
Consolidated Gas was firm under the
impression that an extra distribution is
near at hand.
Market Less Active.
Midway in the second hour of the aft
ernoon the market became less active,
slowing down, with some recessions on
profit taking.
In this showdown Consolidated Gas,
General Electric and Continental Can
suffered 2 to points seaback.
Anglo French notes sold at 97H.
Closing More Quiet.
In the last hour the volume Of trad
ing fell of considerably. and there
were some reactions from the high of
the session, but most of the list held
a goodly portion of their advances.

SHARP ADVANCE IN WHEAT
ON LIVERPOOL REPORTS
Local Statements Of Heavy Charter

CHICAGO. October 15.-Assertions that
the British might quit the Dardanelles

vance today in the price Of wheat. In
this connection, dispatchers from Liver

NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, October 15.-Prospects
for less favorable weather in the south
and the estimate of a local crop report

cent of the crop had been ginned to
October this year seemed to give the
cotton market firmer tone this morn
ing. The opening was steady at de-
cline of / point on December, but gen
orally to points higher. and during
the early trading active months sold
about IL to 10 points over last nights
closing figures, with December advanc-
ing to 1858 and January to 1880.
Private reports of an improved ex-
port demand in Texas also helped the
upward movement, but the market met
some local selling on the bulges. and
demand was not as active or as agrees
sive as it was on the early week adj
vances.
Futures opened steady; October. 1924:
December, 1880; January. 1857; March,

The official western belt forecast for
rains and lower temperatures stfmu-
lated the buying toward the middle OF
the morning. with December selling
up to 1910 and January to 1887. and
the general list about 10 to 33 points
net higher. Demand then became less
active and there were reactions of 2
