New Orleans Cotton By Associated Prsss

New Orleans. September 17.-Wide declines were forced in the price of cot- ton today by heavy and general sell ing based on an unfavorable opinion of the labor situation in tHe steel in- dustry. Offerings for short account were very liberal and there was also large volume of selling for long ac- count mainly from the buyers of yes terday Lowest prices came toward the close when the trading months were 7e to S7 points under the final prices of yesterday. Last quotations were at a net loss of 63 to S3 points. Momentarily, on the first call, there were declines of to 2 points but the buying movement of yesterday was quickly resumed and carried on until the active months were 27 to 31 points higher than yesterdays finals. Here increased offerings were met and from then on the market was under ag- gressive selling pressure.
 The weekly crop reports from the government were considered unfavora- ble, on the whole, but they had no ef- feet on the market.
 Neither did bullish spot accounts. In this market spots closed 25 points high CT at 30 cents for middling, in the face of the decline of the contracts.

OFFERINGS WERE
 INCREASED AND l. COTTON WENT DOWN
General Market Closed Barely Steady at a Net Loss of AS to GA Points
 on the Day
By Assoeiased Rress

New York, September IA further advance met increased offerings in the cotton market shortly after the open ing today and prices broke sharply during the afternoon on reports that some of the steel workers were op posed to the postponement of 'the threatened strike. The general market closed barely steady at a net loss of 4s to s4 points.
 The opening was somewhat irregular with October points lower but other months showed advances of 3 to Il points and the market sold about 30 to ss points net higher right after the call on overnight buying orders and relatively firm cables This made recovery of approximately 2a cents per pound from the low levels of last week, which evidently attracted a good deal of realizing while the reduction in the speculative short interest was fol- lowed by falling off in demand.
 Prices weakened ip consequence not withstanding bullish overnight spot ad- vices and favorable crop reports with sellers becoming more aggressive as the market worked lower. Apprehen- sions of strike in the steel trade seemed to be a prominent factor on the afternoon decline and the lowest prices of the day were reported in the late trading when October sold at 29.SS and January 29.40 or 70 to 75 points net lower. The close was several points up from the lowest on covering. The weekly report of the weather bureau indicated that weather conditions had been generally favorable except south western storm which had blown out open cotton read very bullishly on crop pros- poets in Georgta where it said picking was likely to be completed by the end of September.
 Exports today were 1,33S bales mak- ing 606,959 so far this season. Port receipts 5,339 bales. United States port stocks S39,004 bales.

STAND TAKEN BY THE LABOR LEADERS, HAS A BEAR|SH EFFECT
All Grain Reversed Trend of Yesterdays Market and Shied at Labor
 Situation ?
ey AssselateA Press


 Chicago, September 17.-Militant ut- terances of labor leaders regarding a steel strike did a good deal in the corn market today to counter balance the bullish effect of farmers movement to hold back grain and live stock for higher prices. The market closed unsettled at 2c net lower to 4Ac advance with Septem- Der s1.44k, and December, $1.21 to s1.21A
 Oats finished 1hc to 1Mc down, and provisions varying from unchanged figures to 32c decline. Corn ran up rapidly in value at first owing to the stimulus which buyers found in an nouncements that farmers organiza- tions were taking definite concerted measures to keep rural commodities off the market at present.
 New crop months, however, in which most of the trade centers did not rise to any such specular degree.
 The prices crumbled in good earnest toward the last.
 Oats paralleled the action of corn. Provisions advanced with hogs and corn, but like grain finally receded.

 ALL EYES ON WALL STREET TRAINED TOWARD BIC STRIKE Heavy Selling Indulged in by Shorts, Who Were En- couraged by Exchange
 Weakness
By Associated Press

New York, September H-Impending labor disturbances in the steel and iron industry assumed a more critical phase today, creating general unsettlement in the stock market.
 Heaviness ruled at the opening, suc- ceeded almost immediately by a vigorous rally, but extensive liquidation set in be- fore noon on reports that the labor lead CTS were determined to force the union issue with the United States Steel cor Sporation.
 The decline gathered greater mo- mentum from heavy selling by the shorts, who found additional reasons for their aggressionS; in the greater weak ness of foreign exchange and officia denial of any early plan to pay arrears on mercantile marine preferred by means of a short-term note issue
 Extreme reverSalS in steels and steel equipments range from ? to points United States Steel losing 25s at it's low est. but Crucible was comaratively steady on the increase of it's dividend to F per cent annual rate.
 Among shipping losses extended from a to points, oils IF to T. motors and their specialties to metal shares 1 to 3.
 Liberty bonds heic steady and foreign issues were firm, but speculative rails and industrials reacted slightly
