United States Steel Moved in
Narrow Margin Most of

New York, September 1s.-Apart from

ence the news that the labor leaders had
ordered a general strike Of the steel

The late reversal was coincident with
rumors that the president of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor had decided to
lend his unqualified Endorsement to the
steel unions, having failed to change the
attitude of the United States Steel cor
poration.

COTTON BREAKS ON
NEWS0F FEDERATION
BACKING STEEL MEN
Staple Got Away Strong on
Bullish Spot and Crop
News, But Broke in
the Game


New York, September 1S.--After ad-
vancing on bullish spot and crop news
the cotton market turned weak late
today, owing to a break in the stock
market and reports that steel work
ers would have the support of the
American Federation of Labor should
they carry out their strike threat on
Monday.
DecembE broke from $4,000 to soc
and closed at 30.04c, with the general
market closing barely steady at a net
decline of to rs points.
The market was rather irregular
carly, owing TO nervousness over the
labor situation, and after opening s
points higher to 3 points lower sold
about 5 to points below last nights
final quotations. Liverpool was rela-
lively firm, however, while advices
from the south indicated an improved
spot demand and declining crop pros
poets and the market soon turned
firmer on trade buying and covering.
Reports that shippers were finding
it necessary to bid up the basis to Sc
cure cotton for filling out September
engagements were colored by the ap-
pearance of trade buying orders
around the ring, and the market was
very firm during the early afternoon.
with October selling up to 30.33c and
January to 10000, or about 46 to SO
points net higher. There was more
realizing around the 301ac level for
December and January and the mar
ket weakened late in the afternoon.
owing to the unsettled ruling of the
stock market and increased apprehen-
sons of labor troubles. October quick
ly broke to 29.74c and January to
10000 and the close was within or
3 points of the lowest under liquida-
ton and renewal of local pressure
n hiatt -
in the goods market, which helped
the early advance. but the trade de-
mand was believed to be chiefly to fill
old orders.

gains so that the close was point high

responsible for more or less caution on
the long side.

r. E. Campbell & Co.'S Cotton Letter


New@Orleans, September 19.--Liverpool
opened about American points better
than due, but our market did not re-
spond on the opening as it should. owing
to profit taking by those who bought yes

buying goodly amount Of contracts END
this buying continued throughout the ses-
sion until Just few minutes before the
close when they withdrew their supper.
and the room traders took a fling at the
short side, pulling prices off some a.
points from the best of the day This
selling was attributed to a rumor that
there would certainly be a strike among
the steel workers Monday.
Spots were reported to us as being in
fairly good demand. New Orleans re-

seems to be widening the parity between
that market and ours. Evidently the per-
mission for transportation puts business
from the continent in her way and Liver
pool is fixing to draw more cotton from
our side to trade it to other European
countries at a profitable margin.
The weather conditions over night were
better than anticipated; generally cloudy
with little rain.
Our market opened irregular, 4 points
higher on October to 10 lower on late
positions and this was followed by a
decline of 10 to 20 points from which the
market promptly rallied 40 points or more
and with the usual fluctuations within
that limit held quiet until the last 80
minutes of trading, when reports from
Memphis that new cotton was being Of
fered there at % cents, and that Gompera
had approved the steel strike started a
selling movement which wiped out all OF
the gain of about Is points, and the mar .
ket closed steady, unchanged from yes.

Shannon & Co.'s Letter

New York, September 1s.-The tone OF
the market has been generally Arm
with only minor Irregularities, and tho
opinion is expressed in some quarters
that with few more days of bullish
crop and spot advices and absence OF
strikes a genuine bull market would de-
velop. Some of the trade attribute the
better demand for the actual to filling
September engagements, but whatever the
reason the cotton is apparently wanted,
and the basis everywhere is hardening
as a result of competitive bidding for
the early receipts Exports today were
10000 bales, and we understand that
Liverpool is beginning to ship some OF
the stock there to the continent Such
business once started. is likely to in
crease rapidly, as it is obvious that the
only way for Europe to improve the
financial situation is by exporting manu-
featured goods. Trade houses have been
conspicuous among the buyers against to-
day, and the trade seems more disposed
to pay attention to cotton than to argue
about outside matters.-Post e. F1agg.
