SHARES STILL ACTIVE.
ON STOCK EXCHANGE.
Many Of the Stocks Offered
Recovered Best Prices
Since Middle of 1914

New York, October 5.-The extraor-
binary breadth of today's stock market
which fully maintained the activity of the
past five weeks on its turnover of 1890, 900
shares, was far more interesting to OBJ
servers than it's irregular strength. More
separate issues were dealt in than during
any session of the protracted rise, includ-
ing numerous dormant specialties of no
specific description.
Rails again afforded a stable basis in
the forenoon, cotton carriers being espe-
cially distinguished by the further ex-
IRENE gain of 31a points in Louisville and
Nashville, with 1 to 2 points in Seaboard
preferred, Southern Railway Kansas City
Southern preferred, the several Toledo,
ST. Louis and Western issues, Western
Maryland and Rock Island
Many of these stocks recorded best
prices since the middle of 1914 and Nor
folk and Western at 145A duplicated its
record. Lehigh Valley registered it's high
est price in four years and other stand
ard or dividend paying shares, notably
the Pacifics, grangers and New York Cen
trail, continued under the favorable in
fuence created by the many remarkable
financial statements of the last week,
though falling away on realizing sales
later.
Coppers and other metals offered a re-
minder of their activity and strength in
the preceding month, and leading NUM-
tons, equipments and motors scored gross
gains of / to points. There was an I'M
usual inquiry for shares of the chemical
companies, whose by-products enter large
ly into the manufacture of war supplies,
OF among these being Barrett, General
Chemical and American Agricultural
Chemical.
At odd intervals considerable activity
was displayed by sugars, with new rec
ords for American beet and Cuba cane
{ at a91a and 671A, respectively, while Gen.
trail Leather broke into new high ground
at so, and American Wooden gained SA
on what seemed to be substantial alb
sorption. United States Steel was again
negligible factor though exhibiting
more firmness.
Bonds were strong on wider operations.
Total sales par value, 81, 000 United
States bonds were unchanged on call.

NEW HIGH LEVELS
ARE NOT SUSTAINED
Cotton Market Yields to
Pressure From Realizing
Sales and Prices Drop

New Orleans, October 5.-Although
cotton prices went to new high levels
for the season here today, the market
did not show any sustained strength,
and much of the time was under pres
sure from realizing sales. Selling was
heaviest late in the session when prices
were put to points under yesterdays
close. Last prices were at a net loss
of 4 to points.
In the early trading the one was
very steady, the result of better cables
than due, the larger export movement
and frost predictions in the western
belt. At the highest trading months
were 10, to 10 points over yesterdays
final quotations and March touched II
cents
Heavy selling orders reached the
market at it's highest and offerings
were liberal from the middle of the
morning on. The market had a steady
tone at the decline but made only
faint recoveries. Steadiness was due
to the influence of bullish talk re-
garding exports which thus far this
week amount to 156,502 bales against
114,501 during the same period last
year.

and will not come on the market until
later day of reckoning, when cotton
possibly may be selling at 20 cents or
higher.
We still favor purchases and believe
IS cents for March and May not quite
as remote as many people think.
The oil market was steadier today in
sympathy with higher lard and greases.
We think some further advance likely to-
morrow, on which we would favor taking
profits with the idea of replacing on de-
clines. Refiners are likely to hammer
prices on any declining tendency in lard
or cotton. Hence a trading market is
probably temporary. However we ex-
pect much higher levels within the next
week or two

sufficient strength to carry an increased
load, the added vibrations of the over
weight will ultimately result in prema-
ture fracture of parts, wear of bearings,
and grinding away of tires.
But overlooking is generally expressed
in terms of weight on the four wheels
of the truck; it cannot be expressed in
the measure of quantity or volume There
fore the truck may carry large load
of certain goods and material without
taxing it's capacity as much as load
only fraction of this size of heavier
material. For this reason trucks used
for hauling such merchandise as empty
barrels, paper boxes, furniture and other
goods of large bulk but light weight, are
seldom overloaded, while contractors ve-
hicles carrying stone, gravel, cement,
hardware and the like, will be severely
overloaded. even though the body is not
entirely filled.

realizing for the account of some of
the larger longs, together with some
arbitrage selling from Liverpool at the
narrower differences.
The south also sold freely from time
to time during the day. The buying
appeared to be less substantial than
recently and there seemed to be more
speculative and less trade demand. Ex-
pectations of cold weather in the west

will extend east, was the sustaining
factor but in the afternoon the mar

Ayery's Letter

New high levels were registered again
in the cotton marekt today. Liverpool re-
sponded to our advance of yesterday
spots in that market being quoted %
points higher, with sales of 5000 bales.
There was great deal of realizing on
the early advance, but the market abb
sorbed it we'll and the technical position
is much stronger after this liquidation.
The weather continues favorable, with
the exception of unsettled conditions
along the Atlantic coast Indications are
for decidedly cooler weather over the
western belt, with probably frost in the
northern portion. but it is not thought
temperatures will fall low enough to do
any damage at this time.
Spot advices were very bullsh. A prom
inent dealer at Columbus, Ga, wired that
he had refused 161zc for a large lot of
Liverpool fully good middling, and stated
he had sold a round lot for 1889.
Alabama points report an enormous
spot demand, with no cotton available
Reports of farmers holding for better
prices are becoming more numerous.
Prices worked off little on hedge SELL
ing during the last hour and closed prac-
tically the same as yesterday.
The conditions appear more bullish
every day and buying on reactions Will,
in our opinion, prove very profitable.

In reports and records of the war there
are few words more frequently met with
than salient. Yet as noun it is quite
modern, and is only to be found in the
most modern dictionaries. but as an adj
jective it was in use centuries ago in its
original sense of 'leaping." Now that
which leaps is prominent, and so this
become the secondary meaning. Then
as that which projects is also promi-
nent, projecting angle was called a
salient angle, and the expression passed
into use by military authorit les. Short
as it is, however. they found it too long.
and dropping the angle, gave us the
new term with which We are all familiar.

Fairchild & Co.'s Letter

New York. October 5.-Considering the
tremendous volume of long cotton thrown
overheard today, the market showed Won
derfui absorptive powers. Quick, al
though moderate rallies followed every
decline Big long lines came out on a
larger scale than in any one day Tor a
month past Considering the fact that
the declines ranging from Il to 20 points
from the high figures of the morning
cannot be considered as important. Re-
sistance must, be looked for and declines
expected in market of the present mag
ntude but we are firm in the belief that
prices will work into new high levels very
shortly, possibly this week.
We believe sooner or later 1t Will de-
velop that the people back of this market
represent large trade and mill interests.
Speculative elements have. of course,
played their part to certain extent
from time to time and have helped to
strengthen or weaken the market, but we
believe most of the contracts sold specu-
latively are passing into strong hands
