In the Cotton Markets

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. Nov. 9.—The government issued an estimate of 16,903,000 bales this morning. On its face, it was one of the most bearish reports ever issued Its receipt was followed by one of the most amazing scenes ever witnessed on the floor of the exchange. Hesitating throughout the reopening call, a wave of buying swept in, carrying prices rapidly upward for 30 points. A reaction of about two points followed, but the significant fact stood out that not only the trade, but the general public is willing to take a large amount of cotton at these prices. It should take some time to accustom the trade to this new idea of the crop, but at the same time we must not forget that retail merchants are canwing very much reduced stocks, that general business is improving, and the south is going about acreage reduction seriously at last. • —Nov. 9 CHICAGO High.

WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—Foreign uncertainties had a restraining effect on the stock market today. Volume shrank and prices fluctuated. Around noon gains and losses were about evenly distributed, but a firmer tendency appeared in the making. Traders had been hesitant about placing commitments pending the publication of the United States Steel unfilled tonnage report for the last of October. Os greater interest than the Steel report were the Manchurian and German situations. Japanese issues were affected on the bond market, Taiwan Electric. 5%s dropping points to 64. In London Japanese and Chinese issues ruled steady to firm. German Bonds Brisk German bonds broke here and in London. On the New York Exchange German 7s made anew low on the move at 62, off 5%, while the sj/2S5 j /2S dipped to 39, off 3. In London these issues were down 4 and 3 points, respectively. Selling in both markets was based on fears ever ability of Germany to meet her obligations. Rumors, unconfirmed officially, said Germany was to declare a general moratorium. An interesting sidelight in the stock market was improvement in prices of such issues as Savage Arms, Atlas Powder and Hercules Powder,, said to be in demand on war talk. Brokers thought such explanation of the rise far-fetched. Silver Shares Firm Silver shares were firm on further advances in silver futures and bar silver in London, but the gains were less spectacular. Railroad shares maintained a firm tone and their strength was a sustaining influence on the market in periods of depression. Utilities firmed up from their lows, but with exception of Consolidated Gas and Public Service of New Jersey the group dipped fractions to a point. United States Steel during the morning fluctuated between a low of 72 and a high of 73%, the latter being off % point. As noon approached Steel was around 72%, off Vs from the previous close.

GRAIN FUTURES SENT DOWN BY HEAVYSELLING Wheat Options Lose Ground as Selling Orders Hit Pits. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Nov, 10.—Grain futures opened unevenly on the Board of Trade today, wheat losting ground as the usual flood of overnight selling orders appeared, although July held firm. Liverpool was strong on a better demand. Corn was irregular with rains over the belt offset by the action in wheat. Oats held firm and again advanced contrary to the action in the major grains. At the opening wheat was % cent lower to M cent higher; com was % to 1% cents lower, and oats unchanged to % cent higher. Provisions were easy. Liverpool Grains tip Liverpool started slow but firm and by mid-afternoon had advanced % cent to % cent. Wheat has closed at practically the same levels for three successive days, indicating the strength of the situation but showing that the market has reached a point where opinions on the future trend are more tw rosided. Many operators believe several large longs are selling on all bulges but supporting the market on dips. Caution is more apparent, but the trade expects the market to be fully as erratic as in recent sessions. More Corn Moving There is some indication of an increase in the movement of corn to market, but the advance in hog prices supports the market against selling by locals and increases the tendency to hold the grain for feeding purposes. On the whole, the market takes its direction from wheat. lowa had rain Mpnday night and the weather was cooler although still warm in the eastern part of the belt. Oats partakes moderately of the strength in other feed grains. There is no outstanding feature to the trade but some export business from time to time and occasional buying by cash interests. \ Chicago Grain Range WHEAT— ~ NoVI 10__ Prev- „ High.
