Industrial
Cotton

The cotton market showed continued
nervousness and irregularity yesterday
and there were wide fluctuations, al
though business was comparatively
quiet. The failure of Tuesdays confer
ence in Washington to bring forth any
definite statement as to the exact in
tentions of the War Industries Board
in connection with the proposed inves-
tigation of cotton marketing conditions
was doubtless disappointment to
some traders. This combined with re-
ports that one of the leading Southern
authorities placed the condition at 56.5,
end-August figures, probably accounted
for a good part of the early selling.
The market opened at a decline of 20
to At points and soon sold so to 70
points net lower on the active posi-
tions. This decline was checked by
covering, which became more active
after the publication Of the weekly
report Of the Weather Bureau, which
read more bullishly than expected, and
the market just about recovered its
losses during the middle of the day.
There seemed to be little more South
ern selling later, as we'll as realizing
prices eased off from 35.11 to 34.65
for October, and from 3415 to 32.70
for January. The close was steady, at
a net decline Of 10 to 10 points; gen.
orally 80 to so points net lower.
The more optimistic view of crop
possibilities noted during the earlier
trading was disturbed by the weekly
review of the Weather Bureau. This
Indicated that cotton had made little
progress on the whole and that the
outlook was still unsatisfactory in
most sections, particularly Oklahoma,
Texas and Arkansas. The reported
torpedoing of a transport helped to
unsettle the market during the after
noon, although there appeared to have
been no loss of life, and there was
some scattered Wall Street selling
which may have reflected an easier
turn in the stock market. Southern
spot markets as officially reported we're
unchanged to so points lower. Exports
for the day were 1856 bales, making
358,293 so far this season.

Wheat.-The outlook for next years
wheat crop is particularly encouraging
at the moment, as everything points to
a very large acreage. Recent rains have
placed the soil in an exceptionally
favorable condition for plowing, and as
farmers are assured of a good price
for their wheat next year there seems
to be every reason to believe that every
acre available will be planted. The dis
tribution of wheat continues active at
Western points. but the seaboard is
congested as result of large arrivals
and liberal stocks awaiting shipment
to Europe. Numerous embargoes are
in force and it is difficult to make new
sales at the present time.
The milling demand is less active ow-
ing to slow trade in -four The re-
quirements of domestic consumers ap-
pear to have been we'll satisfied by very
heavy purchases of hard winter wheat
flour early in the season, and at pres
ent mills are having difficulty IN dis
posing of their output. This has
and prices have declined to point
which leaves a very narrow margin of
profit to the miller.
Corn.-The corn market was very
quiet Wednesday owing to the fact that
Chicago and three other Western mar
kets were closed on account of primary
elections. The undertone was very easy,
however, and prices in the Southwest
declined from l to 5sc. The cash de-
mand at the moment is very slow and
receipts continue quite liberal.
Farmers are apparently willing to
sell at present prices, and some author
tiles attach considerable Importance to
the relatively low price of mill feed.
