SHARP RALLIES
 ON COTTON MARKET
General List Closed Barely Steady at Net Decline
 of 50 Points

New York, September 6.-Sharp mid day rallies were followed by equally prominent reactions in cotton today. December sold up from 20-7sc, the early point to 21.29c, or s2 points net higher, but broke to 20.60c and closed at that level, with the general list closing barely steady at a net de- cline of 36 to 50 points.
 The market opened steady at de- cline of to II points. Houses with Liverpool connections were again sell CTS of the later months and there was selling here for New Orleans account The pressure from both of these sources was attributed to the hedging overnight spot business and there was some local selling early which helped to send prices off to a net loss of 1g to 21 points.
 Covering absorbed the early offer ings at the decline, however, and the market turned firme- late in the morning on more numerous reports of crop deterioration from the belt and reiterated claims that southern hold CTS were selling less freely. The ner- vousness of October shorts also seemed to be increased by a further decrease in the local warehouse stock which is now the smallest for this time of year in several seasons, and prices worked up rapidly during the middle of the day with october touching 21.43c and January 21.2oc, or about 25 to 32 points net higher on the ac tive months At this level the more UT gent demand from shorts appeared to have been supplied the market SC verely in the afternoon and a re newal of liquidation, reselling by recent buyers and pressure from spot house sources, which included selling for southern account. october sold off to 20.6Sc and January to 2O.51c, or 50 to 75 points from the high level of the day and the close was practically at the lowest.

Clark's Letter

New Orleans, September 6.-There IS more evidence of resistance of spots, which, despite the decline throughout the south yesterday, showed steadiness be- tween 21 and p cents. Another sign of resistance Is the small sales. Compared with spot quotations futures are decid- edly too low. So far the adjustment be- tween futures and spots was by spot prices being adjusted to the bearish ten dency in futures The next move in this adjustment is likely to be by futures hay ing to move up closer to spots, Technical conditions In futures are bullish; there IS large f~dge and speculative short in terest.

GRAIN GOSSIP

Bartlett Frazier Co.,: The strength in the cash situation and weather uncer- tainties make the short side of corn rather undesirable. With any easier tone in corn, oats would be very apt to sell off,
 Ware & Leland: Corn acts as though it would work within certin limits and be governed by the turns in the weather. " Chicago-Crowd mostly short in corn. Seaboard houses have bought enough corn to steady the market.-Babcock Chicago-Iowa state report estimated condition corn September l, .S4 against .92 last month and .S3 last year. On ba- sis government acreage suggests 9,000,- GOO bushels, against AT, 0000O0 indicated by state. August report.
 Chicago-Corn was helped by Iowa state report which makes conditoff l2 points lower than month ago.
 Chicago.-Keep In mind we can lose one-sixteenth of our total arcerage and still make bumper crop of corn if the balance comes through with 30 bushels to the acre. Cash corn is help to the bulls for the present, but it will take a lot of muscle and the best kind of buying, in my opin ion, to keep prices advancing from here, barring damage by frost.

 Chicago-Daily Post headlines say: Germany's reply will say Germany will not demand war gains. T. J. B.
 Chicago, September 6.-A1though the fear of low temperatures over the corn belt failed to materialize and decidedly warmer weather prevails over the southwest sentiment favored the selling side. Strength was derived from cash situations. both locally and from the west. Statement also re- ceived from the Iowa state report, which makes condition S4 against 92 last month. Eastern demand was good from time to time, but the bulk of buying has been widely scattered.
 Oats--In addition to scattered Hqui- dation of September holdings, the oats market has encountered considerable pressure from local operators who be- lieve in low prices. The September of fering was absorbed by cash handlers and seaboard conhections with resting orders taking the offerings. The ten- dency is to follow corn, but shows a strong undertone.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, September 6.-To the sur prise of the traders, the market opened lower this morning under hedge aell ing and further liquidation by outside holders, but the idea was strongly held that as soon as this weight was absorbed that the market would as sert itself under this theory of re~ actions, which is always very strong factor in the movement of prices.
 The advance carried prices some 20 points above last evening with the trade acting under the belief that the improvement would go further until it met more hedge selling.
 It is thought the recovery has brought about. the covering by many of those who sold on this decline to which extent the market is weaker. So far the trade does not appear to be looking for any bull movement They do not see factors to justify more than a reaction.
