NEW YORK, September 15.—The ! r ruling of Liverpool and a favor- {able early weather map led to realiz- ng. while, there was also considerable southern selling in the cotton mar at the opening today. First prices were barely steady at a decline of 37 1to 47 points in consequence. but there was a good trade demand with fresh buying which absorbed offering: Paround 19.55 fo for January, with prices later show ing rallies of 15 or 20 points from the lowest.

NEW ORLEANS, September 15.— Under the effects of a poor Liverpool, | the cotton market made wide declines in the early trading today, falling off 54 to 74 points in the first hour of the session, which “sent October down t& 19.04 and March to 18.73. Much liqui- dation came from the long side, and more or less short selling was felt as the result of favorable weather con- ditions over the belt. Cotton opened steady.

CHICAGO, September 15.—Fresh de- clines in the price of wheat resulted; today from rain in Argentina, further relieving the drought in that coun- try. On the other hand, complaints that unseasonably wet weather in the | Dakotas was spoiling wheat in the shock failed to attract much notice. Freezing temperatures im Canada failed also to stimulate buying. Initial quotations, which varied from unchanged figures to 1% cents lower with December 1.30 to 1.30% and May 1.34 to 1.341%, were followed i by slight rallies, and then by a mod- | erate downturn’ all around. Corn went lower with wheat.

Lig cl Armour Libby BUSY DAY WITH LOGAL BANKERS Many Investors Replace Ma-' tured Certificates With New «Issues and Utility Bonds. BY L A. FLEMING. This was the bankers' busy day— they were busier than they have been for many days. The large amdunt of maturing certificates and the rush of customers to reinvest the funds in addition to usual activities at the banks, kept the forces busy from the opening, with promise of continuing to the close. ‘Wherever, possfble, maturing invest- ments were turned into the three-year notes with considerable money going into the 5% per cent certificates. On the Stock Exchange. Evidently a considerable portion of the proceeds of certificates matured today, were invested in the bonds of local ‘corporations, for there was an active demand for all of the favorite issues, with the largest aggregate business of several days, while prices were invariably strong and in some instances quotably higher. Washington Gas 58 opened at 80 and clpsed at 80%, with sales of $7,500 par value. Rajlway general 6s were strong at 941 and Metropolitan 58 were wanted at 93. Potomac Electric first Gs sold at 89% and Capital Traction 58 at 863%. All of these issucs are selling well up 1o the prevailing values of bonds bearing the same interest rates on the New York bond market—indeed, very few 5 per cent bonds on the latter list are in the relatively high 80s. Stocks were almost entirc .- nominal, the single exception bein:. ‘a sale of twenty-five shares of Washington Gas at 44%. Correction in Figures. Deposits of the Washington Loan and Trust Company were given in the table published yesterday as $9,994,- 364.24. The printed statement of the company shows deposits of $10,086,- 384.74. These were the deposits at the close of business September 6. Vietor Talking Machine Company. The Victor Talking Machine Com- pany has declared a regular guarterly dividend of $10 a share on the com- mon stock of the corporation and $1.75 a share on the preferred stock. Columbia Graphophone. Eugene E. Thompson, a director of the Columbia Graphophone Company, is authority for the statement that for the first eight montMs of 1920 the corporation referred to did an erormous business, with earnings about the largest in its history, and that it was a little later than’ this, in 1920, that the bottom dropped out. This year the company lost money in the first few months’ operations, has done a little better in the last few weeks and looks forward to an increased business during the fall and winter months. Its bank obligations have been extended. It is true that the company has not made its own cases, but it was the intent of the corporation to use the Baitimore factory for this purpose. The big inventory at the close of the last calendar year has keen reduced materially and the outlook, is more encouraging. Peraonal Mention. E. J. Stellwagen and Frank J. Henry motored to Benedict, Md., to- day, and back again. “Qur New Responaibilities.” This is the subject assigned by the American Bankers' Association pro- gram committee, for D. R. Crissinger, controller of the currency, to discuss at the convention in Los Angeles, be- fore the National Bank Division on October 5. In Temporary Locatiom. It is stated that the Banking Trust and Mortgage Company will do bus- ess for two years in temporary quarters, at 1409 H street northwest. This_is the trust company of wdich Col. M. A.

The company was expected to take the Jease of the banking building ad- joining the New Willard,on the west, F street side, pending the completion of a permanent home. It _is understood_that the matter of the selection of a president has not beer definitely settled. CURB STOCKS. Quotations furnished by W. B. Hibbs & Co. Actna Explosives . Alied Oil .

NEW YORK, September 15.—Price movements today again reflected a £00d deal of difference of opinion in speculative circles. Profit-taking was the governing in- fluence in cotton. and wheat, which has been taking its cue from the des velopments in the cotton industry and has been sensing a possible parallci in the grain trade, lost its buoyancy. On the stock exchange the profess sionals were inclined to sell at the outset on the theory that efforts ta put prices up the previous day had not been successful, and that, no pui. lic following having been attracted, the pools and syndicates might find that it was better policy to let prices off a bit. The market merely proved dull when the speculative leaders dropped off a point or 5o, and the early decline way followed later on by renewed buying in various selected issues. Bald Locomotive, American Wool and Studebaker rallied easily, Industri Alcohol and American Sugar turn: upward against a belated short inters est and one or two narrow specialtics of the type of Burns Brothers and P« cific Telephone were bid up sharply. Money Remains Eany. A few predictions that there might be something of a money flurry pre ceding the mid-September tax pay ments and government bond distribu- tion went entirely astray. just as they had done at-the same Season a year ago. Not only was there no harden- ing of money rates, but the market was more emphatically established on its lower level than any day so far. Time funds were offered freely for periods of one and two mnths at 5': periods of one and two months at 5y Call money for the first time in a fortnight loaned on the stock ex- change at 4% per cent, although thi has been the ruling rate all week in the outside market. Baldwin Locomotive. The big buying in Baldwin Locomo- tive again today came from brokers supposed to represent a well known operator, who recently became & con- vert to the bull side. The street did not, however, give this operator credit for acting for himself. It ‘thought that he was merely heading a pool. The Position of Pools. There was considerable discussion this morning regarding the position of the pools which have been showing their hands in the market of the last weel One comment was that these poois. had’ pushed prices up, but had attracted no public following, and were, _therefore, looking around in vain for the means of distributing their stocks. The opposite view was that, techni- cally, it was a good thing that the public were not in, that when an out- side following gets into a market the inside position” becomes weal For “the first time in years Wall street syndicates can get an ample supply of long-term money at very favorable rates. They can borrow f six_months on all industrial collate: at 5% per cent. - —_— OIL STOCK: Quotations furnished by W. B. Hibbs & Co. Bid. Asked. Anglo-American 101 Co. (new).. Borne-Scrymser Co.
