Weekly Financial Review

New York October a6-Money condi- tions far outweighed all considerations in this weeks very active stock market, war situation being subordinated to that situation
 Measures adopted by the local money committee to restrict speculation and oth- erwise conserve credits for the present and future requirements of the govern ment, were regarded as step in the right direction the enormous expansion of loans stressing the need for such action.
 The final comment was almost unani- nous, however, in asserting that much of the recent demand for securities ema- mated from substantial sources, foreign anT Tdomestic.
 Persistent peace talk, heightened by events of the week, has undoubtedly stimulated a distinct revival of invest ment purchases, applying with especial force to rails and industrials of the class not identified with the war group.
 The inquiry for rails had it's basis large ly in the further satisfactory statements of earnings and their more assured divi- dend status It is in low priced trans portations that foreign interest has been most evident.
 Conditions in the more important lines of industry have received temporary setback as a result of the influenza cpl demic, but next weeks quarterly re- port of the U. S. Steel corporation IS expected to show earnings in Keeping with the first half of the year. Operations in foreign exchange have be- come so nominal as to lose much of their former value as peace indicates, but the rates of neutral European countries again favored this market.

 United States Steel made a belated advance of E points in anticipation of next weeks publication of the third quarterly report, and independent steels, including the munitions group, made similar gains. Utilities were neglected except for the strength of Peoples Gas and Ohio Gas, but tobaccos and fertili- gers shared materially in the movement.

 WEEKLY REVIEW

Union Stock Yards, Montgomery
 With continued light receipts of cat tie during the past week, there being only 1ll2 head registered on the market. the buyers seem to have realized that the decline has gone far enough, and pro- ceeded to get busy and take over all de- sirable offerings at steady to higher prices, while the grade and quality Of the bulk of the receipts during the past week has been inferior, there have been numerous loads of good grade feeders and stoclers on sale, which have met with an improved demand. There is no question but what the Montgomery mar ket stood up under the recent decline caused by heavy receipts of grass cat tile. and is now showing the effects of the stronger demand at all primary mar kets The packers continue to take over all cattle with any desirable killing auat- tiles. We quote cattle market today as foliows
 Steers, 800 to 1000 pounds, 9lka12c; GUJ to 800 pounds, 7091sc; 400 to 600 pounds. 6A@7c; COWS, canners, 51aM5Ac; cutters. 5AGsc; medium fat cows, 6lau71sc; choice fat cows, 7l4dS1ac; bulls. 600 to su0 pounds, 7@Sc; common stock cattle. 61amSc; choice stock cattle, S4l0c.
 Hog receipts have been extremely light, only 7s1 head offered, this how ever had no bearing on the continued weakness of the hog market All markets showed daily decline, and today was the first in which Chicago has shown the least semblance of stiffening up, however, the hog salesmen have been driven backward by the buyers for so many days that there is not a salesman in the pens who will venture a predic- tion on the market. The packers have had a great curtailing of orders for green pork, and they seem unwilling to kill large quantities of hogs to be put away in the cellars for curing purposes. We cannot help but believe, notwithstanding the slump in the corn market, that hogs are around the bottom price for the pres ent. We quote:
 Hogs, 165 pounds and up, 14a4c; l3O to 165 pounds, 13s4c; 13o pounds down. 13Q 13a.c; roughs, 12s4c.

FOREIGN RUMORS | PROVE BEARISH IN THE GRAIN PIT.
Corn Went Off 1l-2c to 2 1-Sc, While Oats Were in Sympathy-Provisions
 Went Up With Hogs

Chicago, October 26s-Reports that Turkey had made an offer which vir- tually amounted to surrender brought about a decided setback today in the value of corn. The market closed heavy, l 1sc to 21sc net lower, with November sI25ss to $1.25 E and December s1.2o& to $l.2o7s Oats finished 1sc to 1hc down The outcome in provisions was an advance ranging from sec to $1 50.
 Corn closed at nearly the lowest fig- ures of the day regardless of the an nouncement that minimum hog prices for November would be advanced, and of the likelihood therefore that demand for corn to feed hogs would be much enlarged. The posting of the new hog prices came after the corn market had suocumbed to the bearsh influence of the news regarding Turkey. Moreover, signs appeared to indicate that Austria might soon follow Turkey and there were bearish advices at hand relative to the disposal of ace-Lorraine Un4 der such circumstances, all attempts to rally the market met with but little success.
 Oats weakened with corn. Provisions went soaring on account of big lift given to minimum hog prices for No Nember. The greatest advance in pro- visions was $3 on the January delivery of pork.

UNF ADORABLE NEWS IF COLD WEATHER
 SENDS UP COTTON
General List Closed Steady at a Net Advance of 63 to v Points Over
 Friday

New York, October 26.-Prospects for
 and reports of small spot offerings
 seemed chiefly responsible for the sharp
 advance in the cotton market today. The
 general list closed steady at a net ad-
 vance of 63 to 77 points.
 There were few overnight selling or ders around the ring and the opening
 was irregular at decline of s points to an advance of 3 points with the near
 months relatively easy. The moderate offerings were soon absorbed by cover ing for over the weeks end, and trading became somewhat excited after the publi- cation of the western belt forecast for freezing weather and snow In some sec tons. Stop orders were uncovered, with January selling up to 30.05c and March to 2960c, and with active months gener- ally showing net advances of 50 to VI points There was some broadening of demand, but after the more urgent cover ing had subsided, the volume of business tapered off and there were reactions Of several points with January closing at 29. .S6c and March at 294ac.
 During the earlier trading the tone or prices was attributed largely to cov- ering for over the week end, and firmer technical position. The late buying may have been encouraged by more op- timistic view of peace prospects, but the chief factor was the unfavorable , weather outlook and the fear that re- duced crop prospects would further strengthen the views of the southern holders. Some of the local spot people say that spot offerings are now very | small for this season of the year, with a moderate demand from domestic spin l ners.
 ] Reviews of the goods situation indicated l that the discussion of peace prospects had checked demand, and it is said that print cloths have been offered quite freely be- 1 low the maximum price.

Over Campbell & Co.'s Wire

Naw Orleans October 26.-tSpeclait Fear of cold and wet weather Tn the belt and the growing indications or sl real peace movement put the price or cotton higher by nearly cent pouhc today. the market feeling buying pres sure from the opening. The demand came from all quarters and there Was much covering by shorts Before .ac session was very old the tfaains months were 9e to 93 points over yes terday,s last quotations and the gam was fairly we'll maintained until late in the day.
 Mlich rain was scatteredN over the cotton region. while snow and temper atures below freezing were reported III the northwestern section. Rainy anu colder weather was predictd for the belt generally over Sunday with snow and freezing in portions of Oklahoma and Arkansas and frezing tempera- lures in the northwest portion of east Texas. The general conclusion was that this spell of weather means tnat the chances of a top crop over a re- stricted area, it has been remarked re- peated that cold must hold off until an unusually late date for the top crop to mature,
 The rumor that Turkey had surrend- : cred increased the tendency to buy an increased the feeling that the psace trend in Europe must assume a mora definite shape in the near future. The gathering of diplomats at Versaii- les. at which the United States is not ably represented, may possibly result in the most important events in over four years, and in view of the possi- bilities of the present situation, we believe that the market should De bought on any recessions.
 The close was steady at a net gain of 67 to 70 points.-Shepard X Gluck.
