Relatively Steady.

For two hours after the first hour OF
the morning the market remained slow
and relatively steady with Il little ad-
vance here and there. and loss of the
improvement, while General Motors
steadily sought lower levels, stopping
just before the opening of the second
hour of the afternoon at new low,
9012.
The steels were reasonably we'll main
tanned. Reading, Sugar. Union Pacific
and likewise the coppers having many
friends, but the sagging trend else
where seemed like a brake upon the
rest of the market and prevented a
good show Of strength, the impression
gained from watching the tape being
strongly indicative of an easier closing
unless unlooked-for support or uneX-
pectedly good news developed.
There was more backing and filling
throughout the afternoon. with loss of
earlier gains. and then partial recovery.
but without radical changes in the
stocks that showed the best strength in
the morning. with fractional receveries
on covering in the weaker securities
The final hour witnessed general ces
sation Of trading and a waiting for some
thing potent enough to swing the trend
in one direction or the other.

December, 20.3s: January, 2p.oo, March,
20.42; May, 20.50.
There was an active covering move
ment in the market early today.
Rumors that returns to southern au-
thority indicated a decline of 40 points
in the condition of the crop since Au-
gust 25 or nearly as much for the full
month last year. was the prominent
factor on the advance. There was also
nervousness over the disturbance in
the Caribbean sea and low temperatures
north of the belt First prices We're 10
to % points higher. with the market
selling 35 to 40 points above last nights
closing before the end of the first hour
October touched 20.60 and January ~. 40
There We're reports of splnners buylns
late yesterday, but the bulk of the
early demand today was attributed to
covering by shorts.
The early advance extended to 2oso
for October and 20.55 for January. or
47 to so points above last nights clos
ing figures. Demand tapered off some
what on the advance of over 50 per
bale from the recent low level. but
prices continued steady, holding within
or s points of the best around mid
NEW ORLEANS. September 11.-Cot-
ton opened steady. Opening bid: Oc-
tober, 1872: December. 1857 asked;
January, 1864 asked; March, 1892; May,
20.10 asked.
Cool weather over the belt and fear
of tropical storms caused buying of
cotton in the early trading here today
which put prices 81 to A points higher.
Reports from important sections OF the
belt told of deterioration and a private
bureau claimed the crops condition had
fallen AS points in the last fortnight;
Continued storm warnings from the
weather bureau relating to disturb
ances in the Caribbean kept the ad-
no. dino
noon the rise was widened to SO to 55

NERVOUS,
SOME NEW LOWS MADE

NEW YORK. September 11.-Bears
looked over the STATION this morning
and considered their position fairly
comfortable finding much encourage
ment in the Russian news. but when
they tested the market it developed that
there were many buying orders under
the leaders. SO that the immediate OPEN
ing was attended with a fair show of
strength.
Despite this fact the market was
more or less nerves. Many investors
We're feeling around. showing a dis
position to accumulate a few cheap
stocks. and yet timid and slow even
when some promising bargains were Of
fered.
There was little qestion that the Rus
sian situation. while not hopeless. was
considered very serious, and no one
seemed certain as to the probable
course Of prices.
That the untitled orders of the Steel
Corporation would show a heavy de-
crease was generally expected. through
the refusal of many orders for other
than government work. and this was by
no means bear factor.
