conclusively. A piece of bronze
metal similar to that used in German
torpedoes was found in the Sussex
wreck. German submarines are on:
Grating in the vicinity Of the sMrlsk.

COTTON MARKET
SHOWS STEADY TONE
Sustaining Influences Were
Storm Reports and Dis
counting of Advices

New Orleans, September 25.-A quiet
but steady tone prevailed in the cot
ton market today, prices being sus-
tanned by moderate buying. Offerings
were somewhat lighter than they have
beer recently. The principal sustaining
influences were storm reports from
Texas and private bureau condition
report of $50 per cent of the normal,
loss of Sc points for the month and
pointing to even lower figures from
the government than extreme bullish
opirion has yet suggested. Around
the opening prices were 10 to 20 points
up and later the rise was widened In
the afternoon the market had to con-
tend with realizing from the long side
and prices were scaled down several
points, the close being at a net gain
for the day of 3 to points.
Liverpool was better than due and
appeared affected by the storm re-
ports and condition figures. Private
messages to this market from Texas
stated cotton had been damaged by
hail, rain and high winds.
Spots generally appeared to be stead

COTTON PRICES TAKE

Prices Responded to
Good Cables

New York September Embarrassing
confidence in bullish condition figures
and the failure Of southern hedge selling
to develop on anything like depressing
scale. appeared to be the factors on g
sharp early advance in the cotton mar
ket today. January contracts sold up to

50 points above the low level Of Saturday
but offerings increased at this level and
the price reacted to ls15c, closing at 16. 1sc
The general list closed steady at net

The market opened firm at an advance

firm cables Some of the sellers here
this morning owing to the continued &C
tivity of picking and ginning, and there
also has been some selling on recent re-
actions owing to rumors of more OPP
timistic private condition returns. The
strength of Liverpool, however. suggested
that there had been very little selling
there, while there seemed TO be COM
paratively few hedging orders around the
local ring, and after few moments OF
irregularity the market sold up on heavy
covering by Wall street and uptown
shorts. Reports that prominent Mem

also some southern selling here, with De

more active today, as tomorrow will be

Arguments based on the possibility of
