Cotton

Slight early declines we're followed
by sharp rallies in the cotton market
yesterday owing to the appearance of
an increased trade demand and bullish
spot advices. October sold up from
1915 TO 34.08, or 76 points net higher,
and closed at 1890 with the general
list closing steady at q net gain Of SO
to SO points.
There was scattered realizing at the
start owing to the failure Of the
weather map to show the predicted
frosts IN the Southwest and prospects
tor rising temperatures. First prices
were 3 TO l3 points lower, and the
active months sold 5 to II points
under Mondays closing figures during
the hrst few minutes. Except for the
realizing or scattering liquidation,
there was very little cotton for sale,
however, and the market soon frmed
up on covering and trade buying. As
prices worked higher buying became
little. more active, and the general
list sold from 70 to 76 points net
"as several points off froin the best
under realizing and little Southern
selling, although offerings from that
source were very little in evidence at
any time during the day.
With the frost scare OF Monday and
the weather practically normal. the at
tention Of the trade seemed to turn
to the spot situation during yester-
days trading. The absence of hedge
selling, as well as the character of the
advlces received during the day, indi-
Gated that the talk OF price fixing had
failed to disturb holders Of actual.
There had been a feeling on the break
cf last Saturday that the price-fxing
announcement from Washington might
mean increased offerings early this
week, and the failure Of such offerings
TO develop doubtless promoted covering.
Beyond this there was more talk of
trade buying than for days past
Rumors that buyers for the United
States and foreign governments were
operating Ill Southern markets were
denied, but both foreign and trade in
forests were reported buyers around
the ring. Rumols of important polit-
cal developments in Germany were
circulating during the afternoon, but
were not confirmed or generally
credited, and probably had little effect
or the market. The rejection of Aus
trian peace overtures had evidently
been discounted. but may possibly have
contributed slightly to the early de
clinas.
Exports for the day were 1889
bales making 40S, ,005 so far this sea-
son. Southern spot markets. as official
" reported, were so points lower to 90
points higher. generally unchanged TO
SO points higher.

situation with a view OF forestalling
any serious congestion which might

1t has been shown that there are

present, and with elevators full the
only disposition possible for the grain
is TO leave it in the cars in which

WASHINGTON. Sept. 26.-The Ger

shortage Of artillery and is reduced at

economy in the use of munitions.
These facts were disclosed to-day in
an order signed by General LudendorfF.
received here at an Entente military
establishment. The dispatch says:
The defeats suffered by the Ger
mans during the last two months have
been so serious that they have lost a
considerable number of cannon. not

through use. The work OF the arti-
lery has been too great tax on its

"Ludendortf, in an order of the day.

lcry is tired. He considers that the
infantry ought TO defend itself alone

insists that munitions be economized

The following are the principal pas
sages in this order:
General Liethin reports to me that
