New York Cotton,

New York, Oct. o1.-TLere was a renewal of yesterdays buying movement at the opening Of the cot ton market today, the first prices be- ing B to 31 points higher. Decem- Der contracts sold at 2790c and Janu- ary 2712c, making recovery of 128 to 135 points from the low level of Monday. Liverpool and local trade interests were buyers while there was continued covering by Wall street and commission nousds but there seemed to be considerable southern selling on the advance and reactions followed with December re- acting to 27.60c and January to 26.98c before the end of the first hour.
 The early break was checked at 26.79o for January, or about 9 points under last nights closing figures and 40 points under the high level of the morning covering and continued trade buying. A rally of 20 points met in creased offerings, however, with the unsettled ruling of the stock proba- bly was responsible for Wall street selling and later fluctuations were irregular. December was selling around 27.40c and January 26.S0c at midday.
 Every bulge seemed to meet in creased offerings, partly from south. ern sources and the market sagged off again during the early afternoon. December declined to 27.30c and Jan uary to 26.68c, or about 20 to P points net lower and 50 to 60 points under the early high level.

New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, Oct. o1.-The rise of $10 bale in Liverpool spots and the continued cool weather over the belt stimulated buying in the local cotton market today and put prices 34 to 37 points up around tho call. The re- port that ocean rates on cotton from here to English ports would be rais- ed, caused a reaction, the market standing to 8 points under yester- days close at the end of the first half hour.
 In the trading up to noon the prices fell 10 to 15 joints below the level of yesterdays closing. Liquidation of long contracts in creased in the afternoon and at 1 o'clock the active months were 21 to 23 points under yesterdays last quotations.

MEN WANTED

~ result of the war there is an enormous demand in all lines of busi- ness. both public and private. for trained men and women. Leading men of the nation are unanimous in the opinion that 1t is a patriotic duty for men who are not eligible for army service to pursue bus4ness or techni- cal training and 1t themselves for ser. l vice elsewhere.
 Young men who are not in the se. lective draft. arc wanted in business positions provided they have tho right training. Little Rock and Arkansas business men are begging now for trained help: they need men-great numbers of thena-and must have them. It Is . splendid opportunity for these who will train themselves in Bookkeeping. shorthand, and sthsr branches of clerical work.
 MT. George A. Mclean. President of Draughon's Busipess College of Little Rock. Ark. advises that the demand for offlce help has trebled In volume during the last three or four months. and that in August alone, nearly 200 positions were offered the students of his school. A very large majority could not be filled as there was not . sufficient number of trained students available. MT, Mclean strong iy urges business training and says that wonderful opportunities are now. open to the young men and women of Arkansas.
 Those who are looking for an cp- portuntty and believe in the "Do il, nov" spirit. should. by III means. communicate with Mr.. McI,ean and lleaxn his plan for assisting young pso- p1e te ttepare for busineaG tfe.

bulges considerable selling was noted
from houses with Eastern connections.
but the offerings were we'll absorbed and
the market finished at the topmost point

corn yesterday were busy replacing IL
to-day. One reason was a persistent
feeling that recent frost damage was
greater than reports had indicated.
Fears that threshing and shipping
would be delayed by wet weather gave
decided strength to oats. Owing to
scantiness of arrivals wheat could not
be supplied in amounts equal to the
corn's advance. Government buying
was almost continuously in evidence.
