STEADY TONE o..
 COTTON MARKET Reports of Better Export Demand Tended to
 Strengthen Market

New York, November 6.-The cotton market was comparatively quiet today and fluctuations were irregular enough to indicate further evening up for over the election and the report of the cen- sus bureau on Wednesday. On the whole, however, the tone was steady, with January contracts selling up to 19.12c in the late trading and clos ing 19.10c. The general list closed very steady at net advance of Il to IS points.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of 10 to 12 points and the active months sold 14 to 16 points net high CT shortly after the call In response to relatively firm cables. Private ad- vices from Liverpool attributed the strength there to trade calling and continental buying which had readily absorbed a little hedge selling and scattering liquidation. Reports of a better demand from India and China from Manchester were also a factor and houses with Liverpool connections were good buyers here on the opening advance.
 Considerable realizing was encount- cred, however, particularly from Wall street and western sources and Q ru- nor that small American steamer had been sunk by a submarine seemed to cause some uneasiness during the middle of the morning. January sold off from 19.09c to 1S.9Sc, and May from 19.36c to 19.24c, or back to within 3 or i points of Saturdays final figures. Pressure then subsided, however. while later reports indicated that the steam CT mentioned earlier had recently been transferred from American to Nor wcgian register and the market firmed up again during the afternoon on the large export movement, covering fur- ther buying by spot interests and sup pert from Wall street sources. Demand from the latter direction became quite active in the late trading, with March selling up from 19.10c to 19.25c. while May advanced to 19.40c. The close was within point or two of the best. The strength in the stock market was sup posed to be stimulating the Wall street demand for cotton late in the after noon.

Avery's Letter

Today's market was surprisingly steady throughout the session. First quotations were at an advance of to
 8 points, which was about in line with
 Liverpool, which was slightly better
 than due.
 There was no news of importance
 over Sunday. The only change in con-
 ditions was the prediction for unset tied and cooler weather over the west ern belt.
 Liquidation over the election was not
 as heavy as had been expected and dur ing the last few minutes of traing there
 was considerable short covering, which
 ran prices to the highest of the day, the close being Is to IS points above Saturdays finals.
 1 There is no reason why the result of l the election should affect cotton values one way or the other, but there is all ways more or less nervousness and uncertainty on the part of the trade until the result is known, after which We expect to see bulls take hold with renewed vigor.
 Spot at all southern markets held firm, quotations being unchanged to 20 points higher. favor taking the long side on any easy spots.

WHEAT PRICES TAKE :.
 AN UPWARD TURN
Improved Export Demand at SeabOard Contributed
 to Strength

Chicago, November 6-Unsettled wealth CT in Canada hamperng threshers and shippers led to an up-turn in wheat prices today after an early decline due largely to Argentina rains. The market closed strong, 114c to PEG net higher, with De- cember at s1.S45s and May at s1.S61a to $15O5s. Corn gained 1sc to Fsc, oats ssc and provisions 12c to 32c.
 It was not until the last half of the session that the bulls were enabled to obtain control of the wheat market. Previously, the trade was under the in- fluence of advices telling of welcome SUD- plies of moisture in southern Argentina, the precise section where downpours would be of most benefit in offsettng the effects of drouth. Another advant- age for the bears here was the fact that speculative demand here was mini- mixed on account of hesitancy about mak- ing new commitments just before a gen eral holiday. Knowledge that the United States visible supply still showed a ten- rdency to increase counted likewise against the bulls. All these factors, however, were subsequently put at discount by news that the British government was buying a large scale at Winnipeg as a result of prospective cutting down of receipts.
 Signs of improved export demand at the United States seaboard contributed to the late strength in wheat. In this connection it was pointed out that world shipments were about 100000 bushels un- der last years and that the amount of wheat on ocean passage was also large ly short of the corresponding total in 1915.
 Corn responded alike to the early weakness and the late firnness of wheat. Increasing receipts of corn were counter balanced by fresh export sales Oats swayed with other cereals Bulls. con- tended that the visible supply of oats had about reached the crest for this season.
 Higher quotations on hogs and corn sent provisions up grade. Lard, espe- cially, was in demand.
 Future quotations were as follows:

Fairchild & Co.'S Letter

New York, November 6-(Special.)-Th cotton report today showed a good un- dertone throughout the greater part of the session. Efforts of some of the local shorts to hammer prices met with little success.
 The ginning figures to November l will be published at 10 a. m. Wednesday. If large. they will be accepted as indicat- ing the small crop that is quite gen. orally regarded as inevitable. If sms Her than expected, some interests may con sider them as forecasting early exhaus- ton.
 The result of tomorrow's election may affect stocks fayorably or unfavorably. Cotton, however, will be worth no less than it was today. Change of admlnis- tration, which could not become effective until March 4, will not increase the yield, lessen exports or diminish home con- sumption.
 We believe the recent high prices will be duplicated and crossed by December and think the market should be bought on all moderate declines. However. prof. It's on sharp rallies should not be ignored. Rome was not made in day. nor can cotton prices be expected to work sky ward indefinitely without experiencing recessions as a result of temporarily changing conditions and sentiment.

J. s. STEEL FEATURE OF STOCK EXCHANGE
Strength of Market Indi- cates Divorce From POliti-
 cal Considerations

New York, November 6.-Wall streets confidence in or indifference tc the outcome of the presidential eiection was unmistakably demon- strated, according to the individual point of view, by today's operations. In the judgment of dispassionate ob- servers, the markets remarkaple strength and breadth-its undercur- rent of confidence-were based on fundamental and intrinsic conditions far removed from immediate political considerations.
 United States Steel was the central figure to a greater extent than re- gently, not only because Of it's extra ordinary activity in which IL lar our dstanced all other faVorites, but also by reason of it's rise of S1s points to 123A, exactly a point above it's pre- vious maximum Utah Copper and Cen traI Leather rivaled steel in ascending to new records, Utah gaining : B at 114H and leather 5 points ac 1O3A.
 Urgent demand was indicated at va rious times for other industries and equipments, notably Lackawanna, Cru cibIe and Sloss-Sheffield Steel, Repub- lie Iron, Colorado Fuel, American and Baldwin Locomotives, the sugars, mo- tors, papers, fertilizers and petrol eums and issues dependent in meas ure on tariff conditions. Gains in these diversified groups ranged from l to points, the greater part of which was retained
 There were irregular gains at l to 2% points in National Enameling, American Woo1en, Pittsburg Coal and I.ori1lard Tobacco, while Columbia Gas featured the utilities at the record quotation of 47a.
 Rails were firm to strong, Reading, Union Pacific, New York Central, St. Paul and Atchison representing the dividend payers, while Rock Island, Denver and Rio Grande preferred Southern Railway common and pre- ferred, Wabash and Chesapeake and Ohio were foremost in the minor divi- sion. Total sales amounted to 1,250,- coo shares.
 Bonds were firm, but lacking in spe- cial features. Total sales, par value, aggregated $6,125,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

 In refined no changes occurred in prices, nor was there any great amount of business reported. although there were fair withdrawals on oN con tracts Prices were listed at from 7.50c to 7.60c for fine granulated.

E. F. Hutton & Co.'s Stock Letter

(By private wire to C. F. Avery.)
 New York, November 6.--It is very evident that the public take the same view that the economists do in regard to the market. The biggest part of the buying today has been short covering. noticeably in Steel. The stocks which have no short interest have gained very little today. Railroads are bought on recessions. but there is not the big in- terests yet to follow on.
 In spite of assertions made by many politicians now the war has nothing to do with the prosperity of the coun- try, the thinking people have Q differ ent view.
