STAPLE IS
/. SENT Up FOR OVER
1-CENT ADVANCE
General List Closed Steady
at a Net Advance of so to
100 Points Over Previ-
GUS Days Close

New York, October 2S-Increased in
activity regarding the outturn of the
crop was reflected in a further even
more excited advance in the cotton mar
ket today. December contracts sold UP
to $3.50, or 100 points net higher, es-
tablishing a new high record for that
delivery and close at 36.72c, with the gem
eral list closing steady at a net advance
of 50 to los points,
The market opened firm at an advance
of % to Al points in response to the
unfavorable weather map and the SEN
sational strength of the near months in
Liverpool There was considerable real
izing and scattered southern selling, but
offerings were readily absorbed and the
buying became more active after the
publication of the western belt forecast
for frost with probable freezing tempera-
lures in northern sections Trade in
terests were among the more active buy
ers and as prices worked higher there
was broadening Wall street demand
which seemed to be encouraged by a
more optimistic view Of labor conditions.
January sold up to SEC, or the highest
price touched since the break to 3.oSc
earlyslast month and active months gen.
orally showed net gains of about IS to 100
points during the afternoon. Closing
prices showed reactions of few points
on later months under realizing, but
near position were held within or 4
points of the best. The character of
the weather news increased apprehension
as to grades and it was feared that IL
the predicted frosts occurred there
might be a further scaling down OF the
estimated yield. Reports were circulat-
ing during the afternoon that German
interests were bidding for a full cargo
of 10000 bales in the south and offer
ing to pay cash on its arrival at a
German port.

COLDER WEATHER
SENDS CORN ON A
DOWNWARD COURSE
Oats Followed in Sympathy
While in Provisions List
Outcome Was 10c to 75c
Advance

Chicago, October 27.-Cold and clear
ing weather likely to hasten the move
ment of the new crop led to down
turn today in the value of corn. Clos
ing prices, although unsettled, were at
CSC to FAC net decline with Decem-
Der $1.257s to $1.26. and May $1.22A
to s1.23. Oats finished % NC to sc
down. In provisions the outcome was
Toe to 75c advance.
Absence of any aggressive buying
rather than unusual pressure to sell
was the most evident feature in the
corn market.
Most of what selling there was some
spectators who yesterday had pur-
chased but who today wished otherwise
and some of whom became short on
account of likelihood that the i'm
proved weather would stimulate husk-
ing and Smelling. Bearish sentiment was
noticeably checked, however, by high
err quotations on hogs and by the fact
that receipts of corn showed a de-
cided falling off in volume. Uncer-
tainty as to the actual attitude of pro-
ducers in regard to prevailing prices
interferred to a noticeable extent with
the power of market to rally
Oats sympathized with the weakness
of corn Notwithstanding some decrease
of the oats visible supply total
High quotations on hogs gave a lift
to provisions.

New Orleans Cotton


New Orleans. October 2S.-A firm tone
prevailed in cotton today from the open
ing to the close. Initial prices were higher
and the advance was gradually widened,
with many small recessions, until in the
afternoon it amounted to 81 to SO points
Closing. quotations were at net gains for
the day of 6S to IS points.
The opening was higher as the result CT
a much better Liverpool market than ex-
pected. and fresh rains on the weather
map in the western belt and later adj
vances were stimulated by the forecast Of
frost and freezing for portions of the
western belt and by accounts of a good
spot demand over the south generally.
Locally, spots were raised 50 points on
sales of $3.50 bales all told. Mddling was
quoted at Sc, as against the closing price
on December of 36.e6c. The widening pre-
MUM of spots on contracts was bulisil
argument throughout the session.
Less liquidation came from the long
side, while on the other hand. the fore
cast for frost plainly was the cause far
considerable short covering. A large out
side business was done and there was
evidence that outside orders were mainly
placed on the buying side.

Over Private Wires
Clark & Co.'S Letter

New York. October 2S.--Again and once
again the market ignored all outside in
fluences and simply ran away. 1t is the
spot demand which is turning the trick.
Tho producers during the past five years
have withstood many sensational devel-
opments and the chances are very remote
they will not be stampeded into selling
this crop at a sacrifice. We advise our
friends to take profits at this level. No
man ever went broke accepting profits

'ERRAT|C CHANGES
IN MONEY MARKET

Calls Opened at Z Per Cent,
Rising Steadily to 16, and
Then Dropping
Back to 6
BY Associated Press

New York, October 26.-Trading in
stocks today was governed almost en-
ntirely by the erratie changes in the money
market. Call loans opened at per cent,
just half of yesterdays maximum, but
rote steadily to IL per cent in the last
Is minutes, dropping precipitately to 6
per cent, the days lowest rate at the
close.
Speculative issues were again taken in
hand by bull pools during the early and
intermediate periods. trading reflecting
greater confidence and breadth than were
manifested in the preceding session.
General Motors once more eclipsed ali
other issues, making an extreme advance
of u points to the new high of 800, re-
acting to 81, but rallying in the final
dealings with net gain of "a points.
Affiliated shares such as Chandler,
Stutz, Studebaker, Pierce-Arrow, United
States rubber and Goodrich were 8 to Z
points higher at their maximums. but
some of these gaius were largely If not
entirely cancelled when the market re-
acted.
Rlated equipments and steel were 2 to
points up at their best, but these is
sues eased with oils and food shares to-
wards the end. United States Steel rose
] Y points. but closed at a gain of small
fraction. The statement of earnings,
which disclosed an increase of almost
100000 over the previous quarter was
not issued until after the markets close.
Shippngs had their moments of activ-
ity and strength, but rails were relegated
to obseurity and metals again reflected
the uncertain status of the American
Smelling dividend and adverse trade con-
ditions
Liberty 31hs were strong, but others Of
that division eased with the general list,
including foreign issues. Total sales (par

Shannon & Co.'S Letter

New York october 2S,--The tone Of the
market has been firm throughout
the season and but for nervous APP
prehension over the labor situation we
have little doubt that prices would have
been forced to even higher levels through
speculative demand in competition with
trade buying. AS it is longs show dis
position to accept profits on speculative
commitments for fear of some new and
unfavorable development in connection
with labor and their selling helps to sat
ify the trade demand, which appears as
far as ever from being satisfied.
According to gossip, some of the large
Wall street traders are long to fairly
large extent, but at such low prices that
it is hardly thought they can be driven
out now, especially as they are also cred
tied with having very large profits on
stocks as we'll The weekly weather re-
port tomorrow is expected to be bullish
