COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 10.-The trend of values continued downward today under the depressing influence of lower cables than due and reports that the country was offering freely at the de- cline. Weekly report was favorable for eastern belt and unfavorable for west. There are complaints of lack of demand for new crop cotton, but this must apply to domestic spinners, as exports since Friday from United States, compared with last year, total 55,000 against 27,- 900; since August 1, 349,O00 against 1885, O)0. American mills are reported as buy ing from hand-to-mouth only owing to depression in the domestic textile sit uation, but London reports increasing buying of commodities by Germany, in prospects for less favorable weather in the west half of the belt in the near future, probably rain and cooler which would be considered, unfavorable be- cause of there being so much open cot ton in the fields as wet weather would likely lower the grade and stiffen the basis. On the other hand, indications are for bearish domestic consumption figures for August, report on which will be issued by the census bureau next Saturday or Monday as returns will run against 492 900 for August of last year whereas July consumption in the United States this year was only 346,000 bales. This Is likely to make an upfavorable showing in the face of a larger crop this year.-H. & B. Beer to J. F. Willing ham G Co.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1o--Heavy iiqui- dation of St. Paul railway obligations, which broke 1 to 8peints on publica- ton of unconfirmed runiors that the company would scale down Its capital, unsettled today's bond market and caused a general,recession of prices. De- spite official deniais that St. Paul direc tors Contemplate a reorganization of the road or . readjustment of its capital structure in order. to meet 1925 ma- turtles, selling pressure, which was evident at the close of yesterdays mar ket, increased today. It was further accentuated by the decline in the roads stock issues to new low records for the year. The St. Paul As of 1923 and the convertible 5s suffered tho eheayie4t losses, both yielding more than points. Declines of to 2h points were recorded, by the other active issues.
 The break in St. Paul liens depressed other semi-speculative railroad bonds. Frisco 4s and income 6s fell back l to ? points and Chicasogsnd Terre Haute 5s declined 1k. NswsfEorlx Central 6s and Norfolk and Western convertible 6s also receded. about a point.

FOREIGN BONOs
COTTON LETTER

NEW YORK, Sept. 10.-The market suffered a rather severe decline under the influence of hedge selling and a cer- tain amount of fresh selling based on the idea that the market would not be in shape to receive the large hedge sales that must come on the market in the next two weeks. There is no ques- ton that the feeling is intensely bear ish, but 1t seems that everyone forgets that the possibility of an extremely large crop is rather doubtful and that the final outrun may not be enough to meet this years possible consumption, The decline Is just what the trade an- ticipated. It may be they will wait still longer before entering the market but it cannot be very long as each day of delay makes their wants so much greater. It might be well to wait tenn porarily to see how the market takes the first receipts of cotton and one can rest assured that if the market does not yield to the first impact of the crop 1t means 1t Is in a position to respond very readily to the slightest buying power. There is no question but that the market Is becoming very short Liverpool futures are due tomorrow October, 12.S0d; December, 12.S7d.-Hub- bard Bros. & Go.

ACTIVE BUYING
 BOOSTS WHEAT Upturns Are Preceded By Some Weakness In
 Early Trading

CHICAGO, Sept. 10.-Active buying, presumably in connection with a broad export trade, helped wheat prices ups ward today. Closing quotations on wheat were firm, $ to Nc net higher; I'Eecembef, $1.2s% @i2sh, and May. $1.34% @I.34H. with corn showing h to 1Ac decline; oats unchanged to Mc low CT and provisions varying from 12c drop to 1ec gain.
 JptGrns in the wheat market were preceded by some weakness during the early, dealings, the United States gov ernment crop report having temporary depressing effect. Houses with seaboard connections became liberal buyers though, especially of the December de- livery and 1t was surmised that the p,ir- chasing represented liberal sales to Flu rope. It was current gossip. also that considerable wheat and rye had been bought here for transatlantic shipment in addition to amounts taken at the sea- board and in the northwest for Europe.
 Assertions that French requirements had been doubled of late did a. good deal to keep the wheat market point ing higher as the day drew to an end and SO likewise. did chances that the afternoon would be buIlish.s Rains in Argentina where drought has been a handicap to the wheat crop, had but little influence on the market here, tho moisture having apparently failed to reach the districts most in need of relief. .--
 Surprise at the relative smallness of the reduction of the government esti- mate of the corn crop weakened the corn market. Besides, no great dam age by a frost last night was reported. Illinois and Iowa reports of bad con- fiitions brought about price rallies, which, however, failed to hold well. Oats were easy owing to sympathy, with corn.
 Provisions averaged lower in the ab- sence of any important buying.
