New York Futures
New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans October 3.--Moderately wide declines featured trading in cot ton today, the market feeling hedge sell ing and rather persistent offerings of short contracts, the latter based on the highly favorable weather conditions over the belt, which led to the belief, among the bear element at least, that the crop was still making.
 The lowest prices were reached late in the day, as the greatest selling pres sure was felt almost on the close. At the lowest the trading months were from 42 to 50 points under yest>rday's final prices.
 The close was B to 50 points neSeswer
 Around the opening prices were 17 to So points off, but this decline was met by good support which carried December, The strongest month, back up until it stood points over yesterdays close This steadiness did not continue and the market gradually sagged until towards roon prices were 40 to A points off. The rumor that Turkey had followed Bull garia's course, and the strength of Eng fish consols were the sustaining in- fluences for a while, causing almost q complete recovery, but later in the ses- sion the market was again in the hands of the sellers.

RUMQRS FROM THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE

General List Closed Steady at Decline of 30 to 61 Points-SOuthern Sell
 ing Features

New York, October 3-Early declines in the cotton market were followed by rallies on rumors that Turkey had sur rendered, but the market eased off again in the later trading. The general list closed very steady at net decline of 30 points on August and 50 to sf points on other deliveries.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of points. on August, but gener- ally 25 to 40 points lower under Liver pool, southern and local selling.
 There were rallies of several points right after the call on covering. but the bulge met increased offerings from south ern sources and prices soon turned easier. Reports that the British ocean freight allotment for November was tho same as october, or about 10000 bales, seems disappointment to some of the local bulls, while there was also selling on the favorable weather.
 Business was very quiet and it did not require much selling to influence prices, which sold of to s26oc for October z a's s2 olc for January before the end of .ne morning, with active months generally showing net losses of 56 to 64 points, The market then steadied on covering and there was a furry of buying on the ru- mors that Turkey had capitulated, which sent October up to 32,9Sc and January to g. .35c, or about 35 points from the low level of the morning. The market then seemed to meet increased offerings again,
 with the south seller, and broke back to about the lowest point in the later trading, with December selling at S22Sc. The close was within or points of the lowest.
 There were reports of firmer spot basis during the morning, but the south- ern selling here was one of the main fea- lures in generally quiet and narrow market

 Cotton opened at declines, but went up on rumors that Turkey WAS asking TOT peace. The general list closed steady al a net decline of 30 points on August ana 50 to 61 points on other futures. Selling for southern account was main feature in a narrow market.
 With rumors all in favor of the pears, the Chicago grain pit was in their hands again during yesterdays session, ana as a consequence corn closed nervous lsc to 1Ac net lower. There was moderate buying of oats on the part of cash houses, which strengthened the staple, Hog val. ues suffered a setback, as a result or which the provision list closed at prices varying from S1 decline to 7e advance

BEARS HAVE CHARGE GRAIN PIT MOST OF
 DAY ON GOOD NEWS
Corn Closed Is to l 1-4c Lower, While Cash Buy ing Strengthened
 Up Oats

Chicago, October S.-Peace reports especially an exaggerated rumor growing out of unofficial Turkish proposals for an armistice, gave the bears control of the corn market most of the time to- day.
 Prices closed nervous lsc to lAc net lower, with November s1 .29ls to s1 2ei5 and December st.26s4 to D 2e7.. Oats finished unchanged to PC higher and provisions carried from s1 decline to 7c advance.
 Downturn in corn started as soon as trading began. No sustained strength developed Word that the new German chancellor would be recognized oppo. nent of militarism did a good deal to favor the selling side of the market Shortly before midday, attention focused on runlors about Turkey A break to the lowest level of the season quickly ensued, but lack of confirmation of the Turkish gossip led to partial rallies as the session neared an end
 Moderate buying on the part of cash houses tended to strengthen oats
 Provisions weakened chiefly owing to setback in the value of hogs

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. October 3.--The market continued quiet today, but at lower level of prices than that of yesterday. Weather conditions south continue very favorable and there is no apparent i'm dicationc of frost, which last year oc- cured about this time to the great damage of the crop. Liverpool was a free seller early. and while that mar ket was comparatively weak the sell ing here was believed to be against purchases in the south, where the crop begins to move. This pressure was very pessimistic on the idea that speculative buying will immediately be frowned upon by the government. Meantime, the contracts for sale against cotton are absorbed at concessions by the American spinners who still have cot- ton to buy against their requirements. Hubbard Bros. &~Co.
