FINANCIAL. NEW YORK CURB COTTON ADVANGES ON SHORT COVERING Bad Weather, Steady Cables and Bankers’ Move in Texas Are Factors. By the Aesociated Press o NEW YORK. September 25.—Cot- ton futures opened firm: October, 14.72; December, 11.92; January, 15.05; March, 15.36; Mar, 15.50. The mar- ket opened firm today &4t an ad- vance of 15 to °7 points on renewed covering, promoted by unfavorable weather in the Southwest, relatively steady Liverpool cables and reports that Texas bankers were planning to raise a fund of $100,000,000 to be loaned on cotton at $50 a bale in order to retire a million bales from market. There was further Southern hedge selling, and after selling up to 14.96 at the start, December eased off to 14.87, but the covering movement con- tinued and the market was steady at net advances of about 15 to 18 points at the end of the first hour. Liverpool cables attributed the ad- vance there to covering, trade calling with London, continental and Bombay buying, but said Manchester was bearish and that cloth buyers were acting cautiously. The official frost predictions for northwest Oklahoma, Arkansas and Texas led to further covering, but after selling up to 14.99 for December, ér 21 points net higher, the market reacted under renewed liquidation and realizing by recent buyers for a reaction. vas no general apprehension of killing tem- peratures in the Southwest and December sold off to 14.84, closing at that figure. The general market closed easy at net advances of 2 to 9 points. Liverpool Quotations. LIVERPOOL, September 25 (#).— Cotton spot quiet, prices unchanged.

CHICAGO, September of heavy frost and freezing tempera- tures failed to stimulate much buying in the corn market today. and prices both of corn and wheat underwent an early setback. Crop experts here said the corn crop in South Dakota, Ne- braska and Kansas is matured, and that a considerable part of the lowa crop is also beyond danger. Starting at 1, decline to the corn market quickly receded all around to well below vesterday's fin- ish. Wheat opened 14 to 2 off, and continued _ downgrade. Oats held about steady. Provisions were weak. According to a generally accepted opinion, the territory where corn would be most susceptible to frost is in the northern half of Ilinois, Indi- ina and Ohio. Under such circum- stance, today's frost reports had but little effect, and the corn market drop- ped with which was influenced 1 ther in Canada and irge world shipments.

The idea is that higher money has entered into investment calculations, not causing any appreciable decline in bonds, but putting a check upon an advance. The exception has been the European government issues, which have been bought partly on account of Cotton Market Sags. Cotton prices have sunk to the low- est of the season following the latest Government report. This foreshadow- ed, at the end of the first fortnight in September when deterioration is to be expected, a crop not far below the big total of nearly 16,000,000 bales a year ago. There has been a lot of talk about the lateness of the harvest, the liability to frost damage and about the injury from insect pests. The bureau figures did not bear. out any of these observations.

GENERAL BUSINESS CONTINUES G0OD Prosperity of Nation Shown in Florida Relief and the Big Fight Receipts. BY J. C. ROYLE. spweial Dispatch to The Star. MTW YORK, September 25.—The proswerity of the American Nation was wnphasized by two things this week, Qe immediate respense to re- lef appwals from Florida. and the instant _gtart to -sebulld wrecked structures’,, and the attendance at the Dempsey-.finney fight. ) What anwunted to almost con- scription of 14 1e laborers in the Miami district furthm'ed the work of clear- ing the city. oy debris. Advertise- ments app today in_Southern cities for hundre§!s of building-trade artisans to work ,0n reconstruction, Water routes will\ be used for the heavier freight so a8 te avoid rail- road congestion of bun'lding materials. It is estimated $10,08).000 in insur- ance payments today .8 available for immediate use. R The spectators at the Yieavyweight championship battle pall a larger sum than was ever collecaed before for a sporting event, and .‘Qe indus- trial workers formed as bigh or big- ger part of the crowd as the tankers and white-collar men, reflectng 2 widely distributed and active Lw¥ing power. Steel Production High. Major producers in the Pittsburgl Youngstown, Cleveland, Chicago ai Birmingham districts maintaine their high rate of steel productio: without interruption, with sheet, tin plate and steel pipe especially active. Industrial prospects in the Chenago Valley are brighter since the an- nouncerhent that the Sharon plant of the Stewart Furnace Co., lidle for a ear, would resume operations. Y There has come a slight break in the output of the larger automobile producers. This is evidenced by the drop in industrial employment in De- troit to 233,673, which still is 22.000 workers more than were employed at this date last vear. Distinct improvement is reported in the leather business in New Eng- land, reflecting demand from the shoe and belting makers. This tends to_emphasize the differ- ent attitude of labor in the shoe and textile trades. Last November the W. H. McElwain Co.. one of the largest New Englamd shoe manufacturers, was able to induce workers at its Cohas factory to accept a wage reduc- tion provided the plant was operated at capacity. The management agreed to run the plant at a loss until capac- ity operations were justified. So far as can be learned the plan worked successfully. This week the Amoskeag Mills told workers large orders could be booked it list prices were cut moderately, and asked them to accept a portion of the reduction_involved from their wage scale. The workers congress of Amoskeag voted, to continue the pres- ent scale. Cotton Values Slump. Texas farmers have lost prospec- tive millions in the last fortnight by the drop in cotton prices, and grow- ers in many parts of the South are facing a serious situation owing to| the lack of pickers. If workers are not secured in Texas before the next rain, much cotton will be abandoned in the flelds. Texas is 15,000 workers short. Nonferrous megal consumption con- tinues on a'big scale, with much ac- tivity in copper. but prices have tapered off slightly. Leading manu- facturers of electrical goods are pil ing up what promise to be the largest peace-time profits of any year in the history of the industr ew build- ing contracts are being awarded in fine volume. Lumber and other build- ing materials are steady in anticipa- tion of heavy Florida demand. The coal situtation is showing sea- | sonal activity, but many good judges doubt that soft coal prices will show any continued advance from present levels, in view of the fact that the amount of water in the streams is inducing all those who can do so to utilize late inland waterway tr tatoes in many . sections at extremely.good prices.

Continued hot weather this week was not conducive to improved trade In the local wholesale market. The market continued rather lifeless, deal- ers reported, delaying the usual Fall improvement in trade. Probably the most surprising and interesting change during the week was the receipt of immense supplies of tomatoes, the crop having been re- ported as short and with but slight hope of improvement. When the increase came, according | to dealers, prices dropped low enough to enable retailers to sell the vegetable at less than 5 cents a pound, the price only a few days previous having gone as high as 10 cents. Half-bushel |hampers dropped to 25, 50 and 75 | cents. Potato Market Steady. Moderate supplies of potatoes, many |from Maine and New Jersey, met a |moderate demand during the week, making the market steady . Prices for 150-pound sacks ranged from $4.25 to $4.50. Sweet potatoes, mostly from North Carolina, Virginia and the Eastern Shore of Maryland, were quoted at from $2 to $3. More liberal supplies of corn are being received from nearby growers, prices being somewhat lower for early receipts of the late stock. Home- 5 and 25 cents a dozen this morning.
