FRIGHTENING IS
 ABSORBING TOPIC General List Closed Easy at a Net Decline of 90 to
 108 Points

New York, September 1S.-Renewed ner vousness over price fixing probabilities seemed responsible for heavy general liquidation and break of approximately 1c a pound in cotton prices here today. October contracts sold off from S42Oc to 32S5c, closing at the lowest with the gen. eral list closing easy at a net decline of 90 to 10S points,
 The market was steady during the early trading. After opening l to points higher, prices sagged off slightly under realizing, but soon firmed up on trade buying with December selling at 3360c and January at S3.4Oc, or about 25 to 30 points net higher. This bulge met in- creased offerings, however and the mar ket became very nervous and unsettled later in the day. According to private wire, rumors were circulating in New Orleans that prices were fixed considera- ply below present quotations. None Of these rumors were confirmed, but they evidently disturbed sentiment, and there was heavy liquidation. December broke to 32.25c and January to 32.05c. with ac- tive months generally showing net losses of 95 to 105 points in the late trading.
 Closing prices were the lowest of the day. The weekly report of the weather bureau indicated that conditions had been favorable for picking, but continued un- favorable and attracted very little atten- tion.
 There was very little southern selling in evidence during the early trading, but offerings from that source became heavier late in the afternoon, when the attention of the trade seemed to be almost entirely monopolized by the talk of price fixing prospects. Early advices from Washing ton concerning the conference between the President and southern congressman threw no fresh light the price fixing proposition, but it was reported during the afternoon that committee was to be appointed and a statement issued this week regarding the attitude of the ad- ministration.

Prominent Issues Reacted During
 Yesterdays Session and Make Gains
By JOHN c. MOSES

There were reactions yesterday from the recent heavy liquidation among many prominent issues, and as a re- suit they went steadily upward. Some stocks reached new high ground. A pause in the buying led to some profit taking during the midsession in which Reading lost one, point but the list soon advanced again with Texas con- pany extending it's rise more than two points. News of further progress of the allied forces apparently intimidat- ed the shorts into covering in the early afternon.
 The scope of the buying movement broadened considerably in the final hour, attributed to more general real izing than the recent short selling had been observed to commit and which was believed to be overdone. Invest ment purchases were plainly evident once more. The closing was strong.

J. A. Lewis Goes to
 Irving National

St. Louis. September 19.
 1t was learned yesterday that J. A. Lewis, vice president and cashier of the National Bank of Commerce, will leave that bank on November to take posi- tion as vice president of the Irving Ma Ntional Bank of New York.
 MT. Lewis has served the National Bank of Commerce as assistant cashier, cashier and vice president and cashier since l902 coming to that bank through the absorption of the Continental Ma |tional Bank, of which institution he was cashier at the time of the absorption
 The offer from the Irving National Bank came to MT. Lewis sometime ago, but he hesitated about accepting it be- cause Of his disinclination to leave St. Louis and all his friends here. It, how ever. seemed to be such an opportunity for him to extend his sphere of advance and usefulness that he finally decided to accept the offer While 1t means his removal from this city he Is happy in the thought that in making the change he may still retain his association with many of his banking and commercial friends, not only in this city, but through out this section.
 The Irving National Bank. with which Mir. Lewis associates himself, is one York City, with deposits of over $110,OOO, 600. It has grown very substantially during the past few years, developing strictly commercial business and also an extensive foreign department, so that to- day 1t Is one of the most important in that city for foreign exchange transac- tions.
 It Is an entirely independent institution, It's only affiliati0n being In the nature of joint stockholding arrangement with the Irving Trust Company of New York. The trust company has deposits aggre- gating over t5. .00O. GOO. MT. Lewis. because of his many years Of commercial bank ing. is admirably fitted to take up-his position in this institution.

Final prices on Liberty Bonds today were: s, 1OO.2o; first convertible As, 96.64; second As, 95.S4; first convertible 4As, 966S; second convertible 4As, 95.S4; third 4As, 95.9s.
 There was renewed nervousness on the cotton exchange, due mostly to price-fixing probabilities. There was heavy liquidation and break of 1c on the pound. Weather reports were favorable for picking in all the belts. Southern offerings were heavy late in the afternoon. The general list closed easy at a net decline of go to 10S points.
 Delay in shipments from the inter- for counterbalanced bearish influence in the Chicago grain pit, and the fin- ish was unsettled, hc net decline to Pc advance. Liberal sales of oats to GeoI gian bay ports strengthened oats. Cash demand gave an upward start to the provision. list.

Over Stewards Wire

New Orleans, September 18.-Overnight news had a disconcerting effect by the in> definiteness. The press contains the fol- lowing:
 ''Washington.- Underwood of Alabama, speaking for delegation, said if any statement was made it would come from the President"
 'In the meantime a separate commit tee of three will be named to buy cotton for the United States and allied govern ments at price to be approved by the President Inasmuch as great part of the crop is used for war purposes, sena- tors and representatives from cotton growing states complain that the effect will be to fix the price,"
 This, of course. does not suggest any absolute price fixing and leaves com- petition open to private consumers, but prices laid down by the government for it's war purchases will. of course, largely control values generally. No intimation is available so far as to the price which the government will pay for the cotton it will buy for itself and the allies. It may be higher, or 1t may be lower than cur- rent levels.
 The sentimental first effect was bear ish. but as the market was prepared for all sorts of news there was no demorali- zation as on Saturday. Support developed on the idea that the price which the gov- ernment will pay for cotton may be higher than present levels and there Is a feeling generally that the present lever is safe on the disastrous crop outurn. Yet there is an uncertainty underlying the market.
 The food administrator of Mississippi has ordered ginning stopped for 10 days from midnight, September 19. This will affect census ginners' returns for the sec- ond half of September.
 Generally fair weather prevailed on the Atlantic coast: cloudy elsewhere A gen- eral change to rainy. cool weather is inc dicated for the near ruture.-John F.. Clark & Co

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, September 18.-The decline in prices today was due to a rumor that came from Alabama and Chicago that the price would be fixed on the basis of 25 cents This statement is reported to have been published in newspaper in Birmingham. So far as the prosperity of the south is concerned todays fluc- tuations is an illustration of the uncer- tainty created by the long continued dis cussion of this subject It is driving buy CTS away and may bring about a lower level for cotton goods, when the price Is fixed. About October l altogether 1t represents the difficulties of business under present conditions of very small crop. and rumored government interven- tion.-Hubbard Bros.

Amsterdam, July 25.--Belgtah men and boys have lately shown 8 unique interest in athlehcs-par- ticularly the pole vault and high jump.
 At the same time the German invaders in Belgium have raised the electrically chargds wire fence around Belgium from a height of about four feet to a new height of nine feet.
 These two items ot news are closely related. When the Belgian youths had perfected their train Ing In the high jump, they had talk en to making their way to the frontier and jumping over the cleo tric wires at some poorly guarded point.
 The new nine-foot fence prevents this method of escape to Holland, and refugees are again forced to resort to the difficult expedient of wriggling through the wires at spots where the sentries are few.
