NEW ORLEANS coTro>

NEW ORLEANS, August 23.-The price Of cotton fluctuated between small de- clines and small advances today the market finally closing l 10 10 points net higher on the session. october ranging in closing sales from 23.3S02S41c a pound. Some little liquidation of the long interest and scattered hedge selling caused small recessions in the late trad ing.
 openinE declines were caused by further rains in the western belt, western sec tors of Texas reporting heavy precipita ton in numerous localities. This early de- cline carried prices to their lowest levels, October trading down to 23.22c Com plains of too much rain in the eastern belt gave the market a steadier tone and heavy buying resulted from private crop report, which estimated condition at 5s per cent of normal and placed the indi. cated yield at 10,49O,00 bales. Prices rose until they were 14 to 20 points over the last quotations of yesterday. These were the highest levels of the day Oc- tober traded up to 23.51c.
 Complaints of extensive weevil dama ge in southern Georgia were a ibustaining in- fluence for awhile but in the late trad ing private reports told of more rain in Texas during the day and the disposition seemed quite general to look for rather unfavorable weekend statistics tomorrow it being freely predicted that because of the increasing Texas movement the visible supply of American cotton would for the first time in months, show an increase instead of a decrease.

COTTONlNARKET ISl STRENGTH OF ERIE
 LESS ACTIVE AND FEATURE OF DAYS TONE IRREGULAR BOND MARKET

NEW YORK, August 23,-Strength of the Erie Railroad issues and the weakness of the French municipals were the outstanding features of to- days bond market.
 The rise in Erie liens synchronized with higher stock prices. buying of both classes of securities being based to accrue to the road by reason of a new selling arrangement for it's coal in the northeastern territory. Erie As, series A. led the advance with gain of 2A points while the prior lien 4s and A. and the As. series B. and D., advanced 1 to Z points. St. Paul convertible 4 g dropped one but other changes in the railroad group were largely fractional.
 Weakness of the French liens was somewhat of a surprise in view of the higher exchange rates. Loses of one to IF points were registered by Boreaux 6s; Lyons 6s, Marseilles 6s; Paris Lyons Mediterranean 6s, and Framericans ' hs. Serbian ss also were heavy.
 United States government bonds slightly reactionary.
 A drop of two points in Cerro de Pasco Ss was the outstanding change in the industrial list. Oil Company liens continued sluggish. Public of fering of the $50,0o0.000 Argentine loan probably will be made early next week as several minor details must be smoothed out before the contract is signed.

The demand was equal to the offerings and these contracts were soon taken out of the market. Liv- erpool houses bought and considerable short covering took place on indications of warmer weather returning to the southwest and trade interests were fair buyers. The market ruled narrow but with a firm undertone most of the day and proved more or less small sealper affair The finals were unchanged to 10 points higher than the previous close, the distant months holding the strongest and making the biggest gain. Spots were quiet and quotations generally unchanged to 25 down. Texas sales were reported as heavy; these points sold 16,0o0 bales yesterday. It was reported Fall River sales so far this week 300, 900 pieces, which is encouraging. Jay Co.,. places the condition at 56 and indicated yield of 10, 400, 900; this attracted some fresh buying. The weather map showed gem erally cloudy weather with light scattered showers throughout the belt. Sentiment

UNAVOIDABLE MIN . NEWS RESULTS XVI OVERNIGHT ORDER

NEW YORK, August 23.-Irregular and inclusive price movements characterized today's stock market with the general list of displaying a heavy tone during most of the sea son. Except in a few issues, which were bid up or hammered down for individual reasons, professional in terests showed a disDosisson to await further developments bearing on the economic situation before extending their commitments. Pool operations were virtually suspended in num- ber of Issues and so-called public buying was again at low ebb.
 UnfaVorable coal strike and repara- tions news resulted in a rather large volume of overnight selling orders which gave the market a heavy ap- pearance at the start. These offer ings were fairly well absorbed. how ever, although individual points of weakness continued to crop out dur ing the day.
 Gulf states Steel was again pushed up on southern buying 1-4 higher a S21R. Bethlehem closed fractional ly higher, but the other independents showed little or no change on the day. United States Steel moved with in 8 radius of one point, closing 14 lower. Earnings of the steel com panies in the first half of the third quarter are reported to compare fa- vorably with the cO.respo ndlng period of the second quarter. A slight fall dng off in the last half of the quarter is expected however, as a result of the increased expense involved in the gradual elimination of the 10-hour day. E. IT. Gary, chairman of the the United States Steel corporation, declared, however, that it will be three months before the effect of the change in working day on costs and prices can be determined. Rail busi- ness for shipment next year is being booked at present prices.
 One of the features of today's ses- sion was the heavy buying of General Motors in the last hour, several blocks of 5000 shares each changing hands at 151z, up 1-4. Mullins Body also was fairly active, closing 21a Doints higher. Mack Truck showed a net gain of 2 point, but the other automotive shares showed little change.
 strength of the Erie issues was based on reports that the railroads coal company had perfected a new selling arrangement for it's coal which would bring 1t increased in- nome. Erie common touched 15, clos kdng slightly below that for gain of 1 3-S the first preferred advanced l2 273 and the second preferred 1 7-S. Recent earnings reports of the rail iroad also have been unusually good.
 Famous Players, International Har- vester, Allied Chemical, and National Lead were the conspicuous weak spots, losing l to points.
 Call money held at per cent all day. The time money market was dull with occasional loans made at 1-4 per cent the highest rate that brokers were willing to pay. Out of-town banks are the principal talk CTS of commercial paper, ruling rate being 5 1-4 per cent. Foreign eN, sterling held fairly steady around s4.55 IA and French francs hovered around 5.59 cents
