MARKET GAINS
CONFIDENCE,

NEW YORK, Sept. % GN.Sl.
The market climbed another rung
on the ladder of confidence, with
stocks forging ahead in slow
but reaSSuring way. RumorS of a
shift to the right in Washington
we're flying around again, which
brought the optimists into the
market as buyers.
Furthermore, the hope that the
President would be reassuring in
his "fireside" talk on Sunday was
another stimulating influence.
The next few days will tell
whether the wish has been father
to the thought, or whether some
thing basic is taking place.
We hear Europe has been a big
buyer of tobacco at the Southern
auctions.
The leading British firm is
understood to be in the market
for $30,000,00O worth of this
commodity. Some are explaining
the strenth in dollars to this de-
mand.
The decline in brokers loans
was a surprise in view of the
markets advance. Which indi-
Gates that any speculation going
on this time is for cash. Failure
of National Biscuit to participate
in the rise is causing comment.
Apparently liquidation is still
going on.

COTTON GOODS

NEW YORK, Sept. % G.N.S).-A
somewhat steadier tone was in evidence
in the coarse yarn cloths market today,
but the volume of business continued
comparatively light. Buyers were TAX
ing few goods, although more of them
were said to be checking over offerings
carefully, and some in the market took
the view that the recessions due to the
end of the strike had about spent them
selves. 1t appeared likely that trading
will be restarted at about the present
basis and on a few constructions there
were indications that a reversal of the
trend might be under way. styles that
had sold in odd lots at fairly sharp
concessions were not available at those
levels today. in either first or second
hands.

COTTON PRICES
SLIDE STILL
LOWER

NEW YORK, Sept. % d.N.S0.
Cotton futures today again
broke to new lows for the cur
rent downward move in the
wake Of yesterdays late setback
Of so cents.
Trading, however, continued at
Q comparatively quiet pace, small
selling orders finding little sup
port in the market. A fairly
steady tone was in evidence at
the opening, rejecting Liverpool
cables that were half-dozen
points above due prices, but as
the session progressed trade buy
ing slackened perceptibly and
the list drifted lower.
New orleans and the South
were the principal sellers in to-
days market. Hedge sales con-
tinued light. Domestic trade
interests were in the ring for
small amounts of cotton, but
failure to follow their usual Gus

scale down. Liverpool bought
Sparingly.
Dallas Report
Sentiment was unsettled by the
Friday cotton condition report OF
the Dallas News, indicating the
Texas crop may be increased
should the weather remain favor
able and frost be late. The re-
port pointed out that a strong
possibility exists that many new
bolls will reach maturity in por-
tions of the northern two-thirds
Of the State.
In the south and southwestern
part Of Texas the crop is made
and about all picked. Many Sec
tions are still too dry. Rains,
while beneficial in places, dam
aged some open lint, increased in
sectS and delayed picking a few
days.
Dispatches from New Orleans
today indicated that, while scat
tered showers have fallen, much
Of the cotton belt is dry and in
most areas temperatures are above
normal.
Futures were two to five points
lower around the noon hour, with
october off S at 1890, December
off 3 at 1916, January off 3 at
1910, March off 2 at 1850, May

1859.

Baltimore and Ohio
Switches Route

Plans and switching arrange
ments have been completed where
by the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road will route % of its through
trains between Eastern and West
ern points over tracks of the Pitts
burgh and Lake Erie Railroad as
a short cut through the Pittsburgh
area.
Operations are scheduled to
start under the new plan on Sun
day morning, subject to approval
of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission.
Large financial savings in the
operation of heavy freight trains
are seen due to the fact that the
P. & L. E. tracks do not have the
heavy grades found on some Sec
tons of the B. & o. route.
