New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, September 3.The highest contract prices on record were brought about in cotton today by the govern ment report, showing a condition on the growing crop on August 25 of 55.7 per cent of the normal, figure considerably under the average trade expectations. Prior to the report at 10 O clock. the mar
 ket advanced about 1 cent a pound, in a few minutes after the condition fig ures were out, another 1 cent advance was scored. At the highest levels the market stood 2o5 to 214 points above the closing prices of last week. Realizing by longs became heavy and a moderate reaction ensued. The close showed net gains for the session of 146 to 156 points.
 The opening was at the advance and the market firmed up rapidly on expecta tions of a bullish report, although most guesses on it were around 60, and even the most bullish opinions were hardly lower than 57. The advantage of the long side was increased by the ex- tremely favorable war news of over the holidays. After the report was out the
 dea- was frequently expressed on the floor of the exchange that the market would have reacted in a much wider way but for the effect of the dispatches from Europe Spots were called steady and prices were marked up 125 points to 34.50c for middling. which was equal to the highest price recorded last season.

NORTH DAKOTA HAS
 A KILLING FROST
This Fact, Coupled With Bullish Crop Estimates,
 Send Up Price of Corn

Chicago. September S.-Killing frosts in North Dakota, together with bullish crop estimates, did a good deal today to litt the value of corn. Prices closed strong, 11s@17sc net higher. with September s155@ 1.55ts and October s1.57sq1.57ss Oats gained K@%o. and provisions 2@10c.
 Advances in the corn market began as soon as trading opened, but favorabls war news and big receipts soon led to q setback. Bu.lish sentiment, however, which had been engendered by the frost news, was later reinforced by reports that the present condition of the crop ln- dicated q yield of 359.00O,0OO bushels less than the government August returns had pointed lo. The fact that a minimum price of S2.2e for wheat next year had been detlnlte!y settled was construed also as bn.lish factor In addition, de- crease i,l the visible supply of corn was announced and last prices were near the top point Of the day.
 Strengea in oats came almost entirely from corn. There was good buying of October for houses with western connec. tions.
 Provisions were at virtual standst.ll during a large part of the session. Fin ally, though, some call for ribs developed and gave little firmness to pork and lard

KING COTTON JUMPS. UP Sf1 ON THE BALE.
Government Crop Deterior- ation Greatest in History
 of the Fleecy Staple

New York, September 3.-The sensa- tionally bullish government crop re- port was followed by an equally sem during today's trading. The general list closed barely steady at net gains of 160 to 167 points.
 The market was strong from the start, owing to the higher Liverpool cables, favorable weather news and continued expectations of low official crop figures. There was trade buy ing on the opening advance of 50 to 95 points, and the demand was active enough to absorb scattered southern selling or realizing on comparatively moderate reactions during the first hour. Traders had been prepared for very bullish government crop figures by the private reports issued last week, but the actual report, making the con- dition 55.7, the indicated yield per acre only 145.2, and the indicated crop Ill.,, 137,00G bales. was much lower than ex- pected. with the indicated yield per acre tho lowest on record. Buying im- meuldtely became Benerdi ana prlces jumped rapidly with December selling up from s455c to 36 soc and Jan uary from 34 44c to 36 S5c, and with the more active months showing net advances of 235 to 275 points, or s11 per bale rise. The volume of busi' ness then tapered off and there were reactions during the afternoon under realizing and scattered southern sell ing. The latter selling was more in evidence than on previous advances and led to talk that progress with ginning and the higher level of prices had attracted increased hedg- ing. December closed at S5 J5c and January at 35 .45c. making reactions of about 90 to 100 points on the active positions. Port receipts, 21, 497. United States port stocks. S10,09S.

Over Stewards Wire

New Orleans. September 3.-Rain fell during the holidays over the northern por- tion of the belt Warm weather prevailed except in the northwest portion, and ;n North Carolina, where temperatures are rather low. Indications are for generally cloudy and showery weather over the belt and considerably cooler over the north. western portion.
 War news continues highly favorable. Liverpool gained 30 points on our mar kets over the holidays.
 News from the interior indicates a rushed and concentrated harvesting and ginning, and the amount of cotton mac, keted at this time is probably much greater than in other years This cotto,. is held in place by the expectation of a bullslr bureau report on crop condition, but increased marketing will probably follow.
 Cotton goods review shows a disposi- tion by the mills to contract on civilian business.
 Our market opened 40 to 50 higher on bullish Liverpool and buying for the bureau carried 1t up 10 to 20 points more. October trading to 33,71c. Then the oppc- site view that the figures might not be as low as predicted caused some selling ana 30 point reaction 4

 War news over the weekend furnished ' he chief incentive, this being augmented turing the day by bulletins which em- phasized the extent of the German re- ' treat. Washington's recognition of the |Czecho-Slovak faction was accepted as a further clarification of military and po- | Iitical conditions in eastern Europe. | The rise in stocks was almost contin- nous, realizing for profits and tentative srort selling making virtually no impress |sion.

Another sp'r- ited advance in United States Steel ana a point gain in Hide and Leather pre- ferred were the striking features of the active final hour. The closing was strong.
