New OrleanE Cotton D A,.ncsataI pr>ra

New Orleans, September 27.-De- clines of ten dollars bale. the full limit to fluctuations allowed by the rules of the exchange, were made by cotton today as the result of the con tinucd weakness of interior spot mar kets snd the unfavorable construction placed on the statement by Secretary Houston on the commercial credit sit uation The or ening was lower and with much excitement around the ring the decline continued until the most active months were more than cent a hound down. Minor recoveries result ed for a while but in the late trading the tone was weaker than ever and the lclose was at tte lowest of the day, at net losses of 194 to 200 points October fell off to 21.77c and March to 19.A3c, new low levels for the seson
 Contributing to the weakness of the market was the favorable weather over the belt and many rumors concerning banks, enc of which was the report that hanks ir the middle west were re- fusirg to lend money on foodstuffs and another that some savings banks in the east were requiring ninety days mo- tee on withdrawals from savings de- posits
 The steadicst stage followed reports from Texas that farmers were com mencirg to cult l"cking and the storm warning issued by the weather bureau because of disturhd nee in the cast central gulf of S!eXico but at no time was any strong buy ing in evidence,

any time in it's history, at least in it's recent history.
 The movement of this freight has released what in the aggregate is a very large amount of credit. The banks nave been called upon to carry these commodities until they could be trans ported to their various markets. Now, transportation of commodities is pro- ceeding upon an unexpectedly large scale, at least unexpected for the early months of fall. This has served greatly to overcome the credit strain.
 But there are other reasons. One IS to be found in the tendency to re. duce the price of manufactured prod rcts. This resembles the earlier st 20 taken by department store leaders whereby they reduced prices for the commodities on their shelves and their counters by at least 20 per cent The two striking demonstrations of this tendency which has occasioned a great deal of comment not only in the finan- cial but in the business district, are first the action taken by Henry Ford in cutting the prices heretofore charged for his automobiles; and sec- ond. the action taken by the Amoskeag Mills in reducing prices third. These mills which are situated al Man chester, New Hampshire, have been
 A-NAiS thC ldl StSt pTOuuCtTS OI cot ton goods. Their wares have com manded great domestic and con- siderable foreign market. Thousands of skilled artesians are employed in them However. in view of the strained condition in the textile market, these mills are now seeking to command renewed custom by reducing prices This, of itself, as is also the case with Henry Ford, will tend to relieve the strain on credit.
 Nevertheless, all of the conditions at the present time are not as favora- ole as could be wished. Reports have been brought to this city within few days which show that conditions in termany are very bad, and in some cases desperate. There cannot be com plete return to normal international conditions until Germany is restored
 One of the favorable incidents of the past few days is the certainty that France will pay on the day when pay ment is due it's huge share of the five hundred million dollar loan made by American banks to Great Britain and France jointly five years ago, the date being October A. It is not to be as- sumed, however, that this payment represents new money, although a con siderable part of it does. It is impos- sible to learn exactly how England has arranged Tor her payment of one- half of this total debt, although it seems assured that her arrangements are completed, and the payment will be made without any refunding. France has been compelled to borrow in the United States a hundred million dollars in order to meet her full share of the greatest of international loans ever made by American bankers.
 It is reasonable according to the view of those best qualified that the-., will be a very heavy flow of funds to many of the banks of the United States, and especially to the banks in the larg CT financial centerS

FURTHER SETBACK 1 ON EXCHANGE DUE
 :. ID PRICE CUTTING
HeavineSS of Steels, Equip ments and Motors Indicates
 Further Price Concessions
 In Those Lines Expected
By Associated Press

New York, September 27.-Business on the stock exchange today began with every indication of an extension of last Saturdays rally, but the mar ket reversed It's course within the first tone. hour, closing with a heavy to weak Various reasons were assigned to ex- plain the further setback. Chief of these were the unsettled conditions brought about by the new era of com modity price reductions.
 Fresh banking disturbances in Mas sachusetts also were the subject of earnest discussion in conservative fi- nancial circles and exerted an adverse influence over the market.
 Traders seemed to extract some :om- fort from the stronger reserve position of the local federal reserve bank. This was nullified, however, by the clearing house statement, which disclosed an expansion of actual loans and dis counts to the largest total of the year. Heaviness in steels, equipments, mo- tors, coppers and allied shares gave ad- ditjonal impetus to the conviction that material price concessions are con- templated in those lines of industry. Concurrent declines in feathers, chemi-
 
 rumors of further downward revision of divident disbursements.
 Rails repeated their irregular trend of the past fortnight, some of the cheaper or reorganjzed roads showing substantial improvement on active dealings, but the movement as a whole was mainly of speculative origin and made no impression upon investment transportations.
 The only change in the money mar ket was the diminished inquiry for commercial loans, a logical result of the slowing down of mercantile activ- ity. In foreign exchange, a moderate recovery of Scandinavian rates was the sole feature.
 Bonds were reactionary, Liberty is- sues cancelling much of last weeks re- covery. Foreign issues, notably United Kingdoms of 1917. were firm to strong Total sales par value, aggregated $l7,0oo,0o0. On call, old U. s. bonds were unchanged.

WHEAT PRICE SCARS AFTER DOWNTURN AT
 START-CL0SING STRONG
Short Covering on Large Scale Sends Price Skyward Until December Delivery Had Gone 10 Cents
 Above Days Low Figure
By Associated Press

Chicago, September 27.-Houses with export connections absorbed offerings of wheat today. and prices scared after a brief turndown at the start The close was strong, 4Ac to 614c net higher, with December s2231a to $2. 23A and March s2.1% to $2.1S. Corn gained Pc to 5Ac and oats 1Ac to 1s4c. In provisions, the out come varied from 21ac decline to an ad- vance of 21ac.
 At first the wheat market had de- cided downward tendency owing to per- sistent selling in small lots. General de- clines in commodity values, together with some uncertainty as to financial conditions, formed the basis of the sell ing. The celerity with which offerings of wheat were taken, however soon led to radical change of sentiment Shcrt covering on a large scale ensued and the subsequent ascent of prices did not end until the December delivery had gone 1oc above the days bottom fig ures. Bulls made much of report that 91 farmer cooperative societies out of 100 were adopting holding policy as far as ficancially able.
 Wheat in the west had a bullish in fluence on corn, notwithstanding that billit is raised in the districts affected. Oats were firm with corn. Lack of de- mand weakened provisions. h

Daily Financial Gossip
By HOLLAND

New York, September 27.-(Special.) President Alexander of the National Bank of Commerce speaks through a statement on current financial condi- tions issued by the Bank of Commerce some words of encouragement. As. tial progress has been made in over coming the difficulties in the credit situation. The president of one of the largest Chicago banks who has spent several days in New York, told his friends in this city that in his view as soon as the temporary requirements for cre6it and funds for the move ment of crops are met, the credit sit- nation will be greatly relieved. He was asked if he is of the opinion which is held by some that after the adjust ments due to the moving of the crops are completed, the banks of the United states, at least in many of the districts, will have funds in plenty or as was said by one authority, the banks will be overloaded with money. He woul l neither confirm or deny this predie- ton, but it seemed to those who spoke with him as though he was inclined to give his support to the statement.
 He did say, however, that the infor- nation which has been brought to his bank and which covers almost all the agricultural districts of the coun- try west of the Alleghenies and as far west as the Missouri river, justifies the positive statement that the crops of this year are magnificent and aa a whole are record making crops. From the sale of them will come funds in enormous amounts, and these, of course, for the most part, will be placed upon deposit in the banks. But for the very reason that they are large in amount, unusually heavy demand has been made upon the banks for as
 sistance in so financing these crops that they can be moved from the fields to the markets as soon as possible.
 FINANCING CROP MOVEMENTS
 Evidently President Alexander has Tn mind the present day necessity of providing needed funds, no matter how large the amount, so that the crops may be brought from the fields to the markets, For he says that until the great requirements of the grain and cotton crop moving season have been met, there is not likely to be any re- taxation in commercial money rates.
 All agree that the chief factor in bringing about progress in overcoming the difficulties of the credit situation is the wonderful improvement in trans portation which has taken place within the past six weeks. This improvement t is not mere estimate or guesswork. It is shown for instance by the report made a day or two ago by the New York Central Companys management. For that company has moved since Au- gust greater amount of freight and Ia larger number of cars than were ever moved before in the same time in the history of this road. So also from Washington came reports that the Southern Railroad Company is handling more freight using more cars and carrying more passengers than at
