HITTER MARKET

CHICAGO. Sept. 22.-Almost frantic eff forts on the part of those dealers In the butter market here with a surplus of fine butter and total absence of buying in- terest forced prices on top scores sharply lower today.
 At the decline there was much confu- sion. Trading came to n standstil. Deal CTS were uncertain about following the decline with high cost butter and buyers felt that they had little to lose by hold ing off. The surplus trading stocks were probably caused by some of New York 8 use of storage butter and slackening in demand because of recent advances.

HUBBARD BROS. X CO.'S LETTER

NEW YORK, Sept. 22.-There was con siderable uneasiness on the opening this morning, due to weaker Liverpool cables and the fact that the foreign market closed some 10 to 15 points down. Further long liquidation occurred on the opening and in addition a moderate amount of short selling from commission houses. The market during the first Is minutes was rather uneasy. but soon private re- ports of rain began to reach the floor. showing over inches of rain in Augusta and further scattered rains over the At lantics. The decline has now carried the market some 130 points under the pre- vious high and during the decline heavy liquidation has occurred of long contracts. We believe in the very near future that the trade will take advantage of this de- cline and enter the market on the buying side. We have private condition reports to confront with next week and the mar ket will be affected sharply either way. Active short covering toward the close put the market well over last night s prices. The market finally closed at last
 Liverpool futures are due: October, 16.2oc; January, l6.5sc.-Hubbard Bros.

BIRMINGHAM. Ala. Sept. 22.-Liver- pool came over discouraging this morn ing. Futures were 23 points below expec- tatlons, with light sales of 5000 bales; our markets failed to respond to the de- cline In Liverpool and opened about 20 brought in heavy buying on prediction of unfavorable weather over the week end and. prices quickly rallied to sround yes terday's highs. In the late trading of the short session, however. considerable profit taking took place and depressed values to final of only about 10 points. or 50 cents per bale gain for the day. Spots were fairly active with quotations generally unchanged to 25 points higher. Texas points sold 3o.000 bales yesterday, prices 29 cents. There was no particular news marketwise outside of the weather Bullish sentiment and speculative activity has run high in cotton this week and car ried the market cents higher. Rains west, scare over grades, check in move ment and marketing was the factor that caused prices to advance above 29 cents in New Orleans and 30 cents in New York. With grain and stocks rather idle, specu lation fell mostly on cotton. At the week s high points 1t became suddenly realized how high cotton was early in the sea
 son and in relations to other markets and feeling turned quite reactionary on the ground that many commitments had been filled, that futures were near larger marketing stage for spots and 5 cents higher than month ago, which might : ment. The bears, however, were only to get a Hotpoint break and there Is buy ing of the best character at this level. Cotton has the appearance of being a pur- chase on all setbacks for a long pull and handsome profits.-S R. Stewart & Co.
