Sacrifice of Securities Continues;
Cotton Strong On Spot Demand
BY C. f. AVERY

The dumping process continued in
stocks again yesterday. 1t is hardly
possible that such cleaning out and
sacrifice of seasoned securities could
be brought about by the forthcoming
loan. 1t surely point to something of
far more Importance. and, in my opin-
ion, the market is adjusting itself to
the coming economic changes sure to
be brought about by peace and the ne
cessity of the United States having to
finance the rehabilitating of the world.
This in its way is quite as large d
problem, if not larger. than financing
war.

GOOD SPOT DEMAND
IN TEXAS MARKETS
Causes a Sharp Rally in
the Price of Cotton
Yesterday

New York, September 1S.-Continued re-
ports of a relatively firm spot situation
seemed to inspire more active covering
by both local and foreign shorts in the
cotton market today. December con-
tracts sold up to 20.60c, making an ad-
vance Of AZ points above last nights close
and 10 points from yesterdays low level
That delivery closed at Posse bid, with
the general list closing very steady al
net advance of 81 to 50 points
he market opened steady at ad-
vance OF to 10 points on bullish over
night spot advices and sold about IA to
10 points net higher right after the call.
There was realizing enough to cause
some rregularlity at this level, but slight
reactions were followed by renewed
strength on active buying by houses With
Liverpool connections, local and scat
tered covering. There were rumors OF
buying for New England account on the
advance which extended to 2O.72c for Oc-
tober and 2048c for January during the
middle of the day. Reactions of 10 to 10
points followed under realizing promoted
BY the favorable view OF weather condi-
tons and expectations of increasing east
ern belt receipts, but covering continued
with the market reaching the highest
levels of the day in the late trading, When
October sold at 20.74c and January at
2O.50c. The close was within point or
two of the best. There were reports
that grain room in southern ports was
being released for shipments of cotton
this month and the outlook for increased
exports between now and the first OF
October was doubtless a factor on the
late advance. A continued good spot
demand was reported in the southwest,
with buyers said to be paying a very
stiff basis to secure September ship
ments 1t was also reported that there
had been small sale of spots out of
the local stocks at a good premium to
southern shippers in order to fill out
export commitments.

THE DAY IN STOCKS
VERY MUCH MIXED
The Trading Is Highly
Professional in
Character

New York, September 1S.-After a Pc
riod of renewed heaviness the stock mar
ket stiffened today and losses were
largely Cancelled. The selling movement
appeared to have been checked for the
time, but toward the close pressure was
again exerted. In some cases further
declines were recorded, although the
list in general held up fairly well.
In the course of the decline a number
Of stocks reached new low points for
the movements, and in the cases of a
few industrials the set back was severe
some of the standard investment issues
developed heaviness, but for the most
part these stocks were fairly steady, and
bear traders found that their best eff

there was no indication in the market s
position, the increased resistance to pres

OF uneasiness to the shorts, whose cover
Ing was largely responsible for the
recovery effected from the early break
The whole market apparently repre-
scented nothing more than alternating
phases of highly professional market,
signifying no change in the bearish sem
timent of the street. There was one fa-
vorable development, however, which
was an influential factor in the recovery
Of stocks. Among the low records were
S0K for Bethlehem Steel, 1885 for Cam

95 for Delaware and Hudson, and 471A

FROST RULES TRADE
IN CORN MARKET
Dread of Injury to Crop

inquiry by frost led to sharp advance
today in the corn market. Prices fin

provisions ranged from 10al5c decline

The frost DOGGY ruled the corn market
almost from the outset. Prices began
to jump as soon as the government fore
cast was out showing that frost was
probable tonight in North Dakota. Re
sumption Of work at two big Illinois
industrial plants grinding total of 49,
600 bushels of corn a day tended further
to light prices. but was only minor
factor compared with the prospect that
killing frost might spread throughout
the chief producing states
oats as well as corn felt the bullish
effects of probable unsettled weather.
Shipping and elevator concerns were con-
spieuous buyers, influenced to some ex-
tent apparently by a falling off in re-
ceipts at Chicago.

There seems to be more liquidation in

position now where any real 1iquida-

Cotton advanced on resumption of
the buying which has been apparent
for a few days past. The reasons as
signed for the buying was said to be
an Unsuitable demand for the actual IN
Texas and continued bad crop reports
from the east. Many of the eastern
houses continue to harp on the inabil-
ity of the south to finance 20-cent cot
ton. The sooner they get this fallacy
out of their head. the less money they
will lose. The world is bare Of stocks
of cotton and the outlook is for only a
moderate crop. To the farmers l wish
to say fix these two facts in your
mind and don't lose sight of them.
Cotton will go back to Csc as sure as
the sun will shine tomorrow.
