PRICE FIXING MAY
 NOT BE NECESSARY
General List Responded and
 Closed Steady At Net
 Advance

New York, September o5.-A growing belief that the fixing of a general price for cotton would prove unnecessary and that the operations of the war indus tries board committees would not ma terially disturb existing channels of dis tribution, seemed largely responsible for the better tone of the cotton market today.
 The general list closed steady at a net advance of 40 to 50 points.
 The market opened firm at an ad-
 vance of 39 to 55 points on trade buy ing and covering. The latter was stimu- lated by the prompt stopping of the few October notices issued, the western belt forecast of rains followed by low CT temperatures, and the bullish weekly report of the weather bureau. October sold up to S2.25 and January to 31.75 with active months generally showing
 net advances of 66 to 76 points early. This attracted realizing and there was some scattered selling. There was no great volume of selling however, and the market was very firm again late in the afternoon with October closing at 32.05 and January at 31.60.
 The statement authorized by Chairman Brand of the committee on distribution said that the committee would exercise it's supervision through existing custom ary channels and believe that the ob- jects could be accomplished without dis turbing to an appreciable extent the ex- isting facilities and organizations for marketing and distributing the crop.
 October notices were estimated at only 4000 bales.

,M0NEY RESTRICTION PARAMOUNT FACTOR
 Steels Show Weakness On Prospects of Smaller Earnings

New York September 25.-Resumption of professional selling on a broader scale in the stock market today checked the up- ward tendency which had been in evi- dence during the past week. Conviction is still strong in some quarters that aside from any special influences which may inject themselves as levers to raise prices, money restriction is still the para mount factor. Disposition has been shown, also. toward retrenchment in pur- chasing with a view to investing in the fourth Liberty Loan
 There were sharp declines when generous ofTerinss in many stocks, notably United states Steel, were not absorbed except at marked concessions.
 The General weakness in steels was at- tributea to prospect of smaller earnings as result of the decision to operate under an eight-hour day.
 Tobaccos. distillery shares, oils, mo- tors and coppers suffered in sympathy, but in the afternoon a strength was i'm { bued to the general list by buying of equipments and large turnover of Ma rine preferred and common stock at an advance, and sharp recoveries were made. Marine preferred's gain amounting to 3sS points for the day, developed after pub- lished reports that an announcement would soon be made that the British ton- nage would be sold under plan assuring Higher valuation for both classes of its stock.
 An interesting feature of the operations was the acute weakness in Anglo French 5s, which declined a of point, in con. tract with the estimate of high prices for the year in the various French munich pals. Liberty Bonds wefe affected shortly after announcement of the new terms, but later steadied. United States bonds (old issues) unchanged on call.

Professional Trading Stops Upward
 Trend of Past Week on Wall Street
By J. c. MOSES

Professionals resumed selling on a broad scale on Wall street yesterday and checked the upward trend which has been in evidence for a week. Steels were weak ened as result of the decision to operate under an eight-hour basis. An active buying movement in Marine preferred on reports that negotiations for the sale or the British tonnage was soon to be con- cluded, carried that stock up points. and started a general covering movement with rallies of point or more in United States Steel and other favorites. Anglo French 5s sold in big blocks and de- clined E of a point. The closing was strong. Final prices on Liberty bonds today were: 31zs. 10020; first convertible 4s. e5.s4; second 4s. 95.56; first convertible 41zs, 96; second convertible 4As, 95.5S; third 4zs, 95.9S.

SHORT SUPPLIES
 RUN UP CORN PRICES
Government Was Buying
 Oats, While Provisions Were In Sympathy

Chicago, September 25.-Falling off in the amount of fresh supplies arriving brought about advances today in the corn market. Prices closed strong, 1Is to 1A net higher with October 14S7s to 14s and November 14sas to 141a. Oats finished half to sc up, and provisions varying from 10c decline to rise of 55c.
 Pronounced sentiment favoring the bulls showed itself in corn as soon as trading began. The reduced movement of the crop was plainly evident, and there seemed to be no immediate pros- pect that the ban would be lifted Be- sides, wet weather over the west and northwest appeared to be retarding somewhat the curing of the crop. A temporary reaction which took place around midday was due to government advices that damage by frost this sea- son had been slight.
 Government purchasing together with inquiry from exporters gave firmness to oats.
 Request that commission houses report to the exchange directors any open trades in lard made that commodity weak. Pork and ribs sympathized with the strength of grain

Over Campbell & Co.'s Wire

New Orleans, September 25.-While the cotton market was firm and active in the early trading today, rising 6l to 80 points over the closing level of yester- day. it weakened in the afternoon and fell to within about points of yester- days close on the most active months Support died away in the afternoon and offerings from longs who were letting go and from hedge sellers were not well absorbed
 The early advance was partly due to a better opinion of the situation in Wash. ipgton as regards price fixing and partly to the unfavorable tone of the weekly accounts from the government. This was fir.t notice day for October, but no no- tices appeared here. In New York ten ders were estimated at about 1000 bales and they circulated for while caus- ing some little liquidation.
 Advices from Washington today re- vealed the fact that the situation is now settling down. According to messages received by the cotton exchange here the outlook is that business will go on. much as usual except that buyers for the government and the allies will be required to take certain percentage of low grade cotton along with their pur- chases. This unquestionably means re- vision of tho unreasonable specifications oil war goods in this country. A tele- gram from Charles J. Brand, chief Of the bureau of markets at Washington, stated that the present machinery of the market would not be interfered with For the time being the market will be guided to great extent by messages from Washington.
 Late in the session the market had a sharp rally of 27 to 70 points, the final figures showing net gain Of O to 6S points over the close of last night Shepard & Gluck.

The belief is growing that fixed price on cotton would not be necessary, and that the war industries board committee would not disturb channels of distribu- tion This gave a better tone to the list which closed steady at a net advance of 40 to 50 points. The market was easier during the early afternoon, with october working off to S1.65c and January to 31. .l2c, or back to within 12 to 15 points of last nights closing figures.
 { Fresh supplies of corn were scarce, which forced an advance in the staple ranging from 11s@1&c. Bulls were in con- trol of the pit from early the session. The government was purchasing oats. and exporters were inquiring about them. both of which stiffened quotations. The provision list improved somewhat over the previous close.

Over Stewards Wire

1 New orleans, September 25.-While I there was nothing conclusive over- night on the political situation, 1eel- ling was most optimistic Gn the ground of official opinion that government l efforts center upon relief from low grade congestion rather than absolute price-fixing.
 Meanwhile. it came to light over night that the severe break yesterday toward the close was mainly on a rumor that goods prices for the Oc- tober term had been fixed on the same basis as for the July term. which was 30c. There is, however, nothing of ficial on this point yet.
 Liverpool was better than due and war news continues very good. While New York reported about 2000 October tenders. there were no notices here. This, in itself. shows strong attitude in spot quarters, and the market opeened from 10 to 50 points higher partly on better feeling over the po- litical situation, the bullish weather outlook, and in the way of a rally. after the severe depression late ycs- terday.
 Bad weather over the belt to check harvesting would go far as support ing factor to the market. The weather map shows generally cloudy and warmer in the belt, with rain at Dallas, but no other precipitation. However, indications are for generally unsettled rainy weather for the belt. as a rainstorm formation now over Texas will pass eastward. followed by cold wave.
 Today closes the period for the government conditione report. While there have been no drastic accidents to the crop during the monteh, condi- tions were not such as to conclude im- provement, and the chances are that the bureau will show a moderate de- cline. but perhaps less than normal
