There was strong upward move

points to 1865, end later positions sold
Up 81 to 6S points, reaching the highest
levels in the last hour on a contnua-

Instrumental in advancing October
earlier in the day. Wall Street was
the largest buyer, sending in stop-loss
orders on October, which ran that de-
livery up in somewhat sensational
manner shortly after the opening. 1t
seemed to be an effort on the part of
large shorts to cover at least part of
their lines before the government re
port is issued on Thursday.
Texas weather has been so bad for
the last few weeks that an impression
is current that not only may Wednes-
days weekly crop and weather report
be bullish, but that the bureau report
Will also show lower condition than
has been expected. A private report
issued yesterday made condition 75.e
against S3.6 the previous month, with
Texas down to 66. which compares with
& tcnvear average decline in July
Texas condition of 3 points. While a
few showers were reported in Central
Texas, there was no general rain over
the state such as is urgently needed at
this time, and the forecast indicated a
continuation of dry, hot weather. On
the contrary, there were further show
ers predicted for the eastern belt,
which gave advocates of boil weevil
damage an opportunity to express thei1
views and predict that unless showery
weather ceases the spread OF boil
weevil will be such as to attract very
general attention from the trade
New bales in the eastern belt were
reported at a number of points in Geor-

crop cotton IS still pressing on the mar
ket in the Southwest, although with

on the October leading strength was
the small local inspected stock of cot
ton, amounting to only 10000 bales
which is likely to be further reduced.
as one firm has orders to prepare 4,SOp
bales for shipment and other reduc-
tlons are to be made within the next
ten days. Replacement is so difficult in
view OF the restrictions on Southern
railroads and steamships that shorts
IN October have shown greater uneasi-
ness than those in later months.
Southern spot markets were 25 points
lower to 45 higher. but generally un-
changed, with sales of 1921 bales at
Houston and 1850 at Dallas There
was little reaction at any time during
the day, and final prices were close to
the highest OF the session, being Sd to
