COTTON IS STILL ADVANCING
prices Increase on Covering aid Mod
erate Buying of Trade Interests.
Market Was Quiet--Gain -of
23 Points.
New York, Sept. 21. The cotton
market was quiet again today but'
there was a further advance on contin
ued covering and moderate buying by"
trade interests, with the close steady
at a aet gain of 6 to 23 points.
The market opened steady at an ad
vance of 29 points on September and
3 to 5 points on later months, the
bulge in September being due to a lit
tle flurry of buying by snorts, while
later months showed the influence of
steady cables and private advices
from Liverpool claiming that spinners
Wpre selling yarns at profitable pric
es;thus suggesting little likelihood or
actual lockout oh October 1st. JEtight
after the opening September lost IS
points under realizing and later posi
tions sagged off to practically the clos
ing figures of yesterday, but in spite
of favorable weather advicesvofferings
were not aggressive and the market
soon firmed up on buying by trade in
tcrests, covering and supporting .bull
leaders. Numerous private advices
from the South reporting a rapid de
terioration in crop prospects during
the past ten days were circulating
uirough the street and possibly made
some impression on sentiment as sug
gesting a bullish government condf
tion report early next month, but buy
ers seemed more particularly influenc
ed, by the failure of the Eastern bell
movement to increase as . rapidly - aa
expected, and after early reports Indi
cating steady spot markets,, prices
here worked into new high ground for
the day qn October and ater months.
The close was only 3 to 4 points off
from the best under realizing. South
ern spot markets, - as othclally report
ed, were unchanged to l-8c higher, and
if, as stated by local brokers, the
South is offering cotton freeiy, there
must be a fairly active demand to sui
tain prices.
Receipts at the ports today 85,188
hales against 19,619 last week and 42,
257 last year; for the week 275,000
hales against 168,703 last week and
276 604 last year. Today's receipts
at New Orleans 2,487 bales against
3,587 last year, and at Houston 10,099

Brokers Bought Heavily on Market
Yesterday Conditions.
(Special Star Telegram.)
New York, Sept 21. At. the opening
the. feature was the covering of Sep
tember and the hedge selling in the
distant deliveries, which brought quo
tations below last evening. Then fol
lowed a period-of dullness ?until the
brokers, usually executing orders for
the bulls of last season,, began buying
heavily, in which movement the local
trade joined, carrying the market up
ward some 15 points. This mvement
in September has been expected, but
the buying on bo large a' scale of the
distant "deliveries was a surprise and
brought orders from a number of Wall
Street houses; on the theory-that poor
crop reports must be the basis for this
demand.
Whether it will be followed by an
increased demand from spinners, who
bought freely below 13 cents, will de
termine the extent of the movement,
if they do not follow a reaction will
occur after the interest in September
Us eliminated.

Market Conditions. -'
"New York, Sept. 21. The s'tock
market today had as incentive to high'
er prices the statement issued yesterf-
day by Chairman E. H. Gary, of th
United States Steel Corporation, de
nying reports of ah intended "wide
open cut" in prices of steel products
to be announced before the end of
the present week. The reference in
Judge Gary's statement to "an' effort
for stock Jobbing or other improper
purposes to greatly exaggerate ifNnot
misrepresent the facts," was supposed
to point to the source of part of the
demand to cover shorts today.
i Yesterday's official statement made
it. clear that whatever price readjust
taent may be in progress in the steel
trade it is to be conducted without the
demonstrative method employed in the
announcement of open cuts in prices
n February of 1909.
An effective supplement to'the Gary
statement as a market influence was
the decision submitted by, a special
master to the United States circuit
declaring void the railroad rates made
by the. Minnesota State Legislature.
The professional traders in stocks on
the floor of the stook exchange jump
ed to .some very wide conclusions
from the decision and frbm the
grounds on which it was based that
the rates were con&eeatory and also
j jr ,
aa. lnierierence wun interstate com
merce. The effect of the Minnesota
rate decision was psojiounced on . the
roads immediately affected and whose
lines traverse the State
The action of th Westinghouse Elec
tric directors in declaring accumula
ted dividends due on the first prefer
red stock Was a hejpful factor for
nigner prices.
The pronounced weakness developed
in the corn market was accepted as
conclusive evidence of the favorable
promise for that important crop, and
its approach to safety from further
danger of damage from frost. A favor
able' impression was made by the es
timates of $09845,000 to be disbursed
in October, representing an Increase
of $5,842,000 in, dividend payments
and of $3,800,000 in interest payments
over the October period of last year.
The Improvement which is occurring
in the demand for bonds is not unre
lated to this development in connec
tion with the small offerings of a new
securities for several months nast.
The heavy accumulations of surplus
funds which were made in fear of
money stringency are also having an
