LARGER INDICATED CROP
IS RACK OF SELLING

.tEw YORK October 6.-The ten
dsncy in cotton last week was down
ward. the high prices being made on
the opening session and the low prices
on the closing. From the highest to
the lowest there was a fall of 2l4&to
e2l points. and the net change for tie
week was 4 loss of l56 to 166 points.
Favorable weather and the larger
indicated crop. based on the last con-
cent OF the normal, were the main fea-
lures back OF the selling. OFFERINGS
were increased by hedge selling. and at
all times there was p lack OF any spec
Llative demand or consequence. War
news was considered highly favorable.
but ii was not factor in the trading.
On the Weekend the request from
Washington that fluctuations in any
one session be limited to 200 points in
vas construed bearishly, and served to
week the trade will watch weather
conditions more closely than ever be-
cause OF the belief among bearish
traders that later cotton is still MAX
ing under high temperatures. 4 con-
t;nuution of the war, SunShiny weather
would have the effect OF creasinE Of
ferinEs bccause of the opinion that tie
yield is iEcEeased under such condi-
tons. regardless of the advanced date
- the season. On the long side the
Cpiui ion prevails that the technical po-
si,ion Of the market has been greatly
strengthened by recent selling SO that
any further favorable war develop
ucnts will be bound eventually to bring
about Z higher range of values. ~
the exchange will be closed on Sat-
friday, October Il, Columbus Day.
