MARK EFT Reports of Cotton, Grain and
 Provisions
NEW ORLEANS COTTON.
c

New Orleans, La., Oct. 23.-Weak- ness developed in cotton today, the market slumping badly in the after noon following periods of steadiness in the morning session.
 The close was at the lowest of the day, a net decline of GA to 65 points.
 In the early trading sentiment was bearish because of the feeling that there was less reason for hoping for early peace, and the market lost 16 points.
 This decline was recovered and re- placed by an advance above yester- days close of 9 to II points when the warning was posted for the storm which appears to be headed for the east gulf coast. Considerable buying appeared but support was not well sustained and then the market com- menced to fall off again.
 An easy undertone was carried to the close.
 The weekly crop reports were con slderec favorable, on the whole and much was made of increasing stocks at ports and in the interior and also of the lack of a spot demand
 Locally, spot quotations were re- duced by fifty points.
 The cotton market closed steady at q decline of GA to 65 points.

CHICAGO GRAIN.

Chicago, Oct. 23.-Bullish senti- ment engendered by the war outlook became more pronounced in the corn market today.
 Closing figures were strong, 3 3-4 to Is cents net higher, With Mo- venlber 'S1.27 1-2 to 1.27 5-S and Dec. SPA to 1.24 Is.
 Oats finished 1-2c to 1 5Sc up, and provisions off 17c to 50 cents.
 Reports of scarcity of cars in some sections added to noticeable extent to the upward tendency of val ues.
 Oats were influenced chiefly by the action of corn. Some improvement of the domestic call was reported. Pro- visions underwent decided setback owing largely to weakness in the hoe market, and to lull in cash demand.
 There were big breaks in the value of lard.

NEW YORK COTTON.

New York, Oct. 23.-A less optim- istic view of peace prospects and bearish statistical features were con- sidered responsible for the sharp break in cotton prices here today.
 The general list closed barely steady at a net decline of 3S to 60 points.
 The market opened easy at a de- cline of to 29 points and was weak right after the call with October sell ing at 30.6S and Jany at 28.94 or 25 to 32 points under last nights closing figures.
 Covering checked the decline at this level and rallies during the middle of the day.
 There was no general demand and after recoveries to about last nights closing figures with January selling at 1922 the market turned easier un- der renewed liquidation. Liverpool was persistent seller and it was believed that Wall street buyers of late last week were liqui- dating.
 Southern selling was also more in evidence and served to stimulate the talk of heavy ginning returns with rapidly accumulating supplies in the interior.
 October broke to 3O.47 and Janaury to 28.60 with active months generally selling 51 to 60 points net lower and closing within a few points of that level. Reports from the goods trade indi- cate that manufacturers are offerings goods more freely for the first quar- ter of next year and cotton yarn buy CTS also report that spinners are sell ing more freely.
