COTTON STEADY AS MARKET ADVANCES Relatively Steady Liverpool Gables Show Result New York, Oct. 15 (R—Cotton opened steady -today at an advance of 3 to 17 points in response to relatively steady Liverpool cables and rather larger domestic con- sumption figures than anticipated. Southern selling was less in evidence than yesterday and there was some covering or rebuying by recent sel- lers. This demand was supplied by some Liverpool, New Orleans and local selling and after selling up to 10.55 for new December and 10.§8 for March or about 9 to 10 points net higher, the market sagged 4 to 5 points from thé best. The census buteau report showed domestic consumption of 304,3 bales of lint cotton for September against 352 834 for September, last yedr. The weekly weather report was consid- ered about a standoff and attracted comparatively little comment in the carly trading. Liverpool cables re- ported covering, calling and conti- nental buying in that market with an improved demand for cotton cloth from China. as Democrats Will Hear Al Smith’s Arrangements have been made fox receiving the broadcast of Al Smith's address by radio at democratic head- quarters tonight and an invitation has been extended to the public to hear it.

S. Steel Extra Dividend Persist — Sep- tember Exports Gain. i New York, Oct. 15 (P—The stock | arket i moved quietly for- today, quickly throwing off I hesitancy which developed for a innm in the morning and accomp- | lishing its gains with light trading. There was no rush of short cover- ing, although brokerage circles had been inclined to look for a rather hasty retreat of the bears after the | scarcity of stocks which developed in the loan crowd after the previous close. Wall street was inclined to | place various interpretations on | disclosure that the president and vice president of the stock exchange had visited President Hoover over | the week-end, but its significance was not disclosed in the action of the market, save possibly in the | cautious attitude of the bears. steel Dividend Rumor's U. S. Steel rose about 3 points, and the well-worn rumors of an ex- dividend was again heard in |brokerage circles, gaining some | credence in view of the recent ex ‘m‘ by American Can. Other shares gaining 3 or more included Johns Colum- tra fanville, North American, bian Carbon and Gillette. After | selling off nearly 6 points, Allied | Chemical bounded upward to show {a gain of more than 4. Eastman and Case converted earlr losses of 4 and five into miderate gains. Wil street was again inclined to news favor- arp upturn in freight loadings, as reported for the k ended Oct. 4 was particularly | cheering, as it marked an abrupt |turn in the downward trend of Sep- The gain of 22,111 cars | over the previous week still left the | movement close to the levels of 1922, I but in previous weeks it had been | the lowest since | Ingot Output Declines The steel trade reviews again in- | dicated further slackening of ingol {output in the past week, estimates !of the curtailment varying from 11} |to 3 per cent, reducing operations | o somewhere between 52 and 55 i per cent of capacity. In view of the | untavorable psycnological effects of | last week's unsettlement in the spec- |ulative markets, however, the re- duction was not unexpected, and was | without notable effect upon the stock | market. “Steel” reported that pro- ducers of finished steel were making ‘th» most positive efforts in months to firm prices, in the hope of bring- | |ing consumers into the market who | {have been hesitant to buy because {of the unsettled price structure. | | Several third quarter earnings | statements appeared and failed 1o | bear out many of the gloomy esti- mates heard during past week. It | had been expected that the third |quarter, covering the summer | | months, would be unsatisfactory. General Electric, however, was able to report 45 cents a share, against | 59 cents in the like period of last |year. The Chesapeake Corp. actually reported a substantial gain, with 9§ cents a share, against §0 cents a year ago. Western Union, with net of | 1$2.22 for the quarter,”earned its $2 quarterly dividend by a substantial { margin. | September Exports Gain | Foreign trade statist for scp-} ember showed a gain in exports of |s lzbout $20,000,000 over August, the | | second successive increase. Impor! were $9,000,000 over August, which was unusual, for September had not | shown a gain over the previous | n:onth since 1926. Call money held firm at 2 per cent, Greater firmness in the | money market at this time was at- | {tributed partially to the mid-month settlements, In foreign exchanges, a | better tone in the German mark was regarded favorably, presumably in- the flight of capital | from Berlin had been checked by the higher Reichshank rate, and the threat of a stlil higher rate if ne- cossary.

Rallying flur. 1ies were frequent but failed to at the supposedly large short interest. Opening Closely Watched The opening was watched closely for signs of a bear squeeze that did not appear. Initial prices were | highly mixed, although the utilities made small extensions of the late Tuesday improvement. Realizing and further selling led to scattering loss- but resistance levels were quick- uncovered and the market was more active on the advances than on | Gains of about a point in Electric Bond & Share and United Light “A” were held with comparative case.

Standards of Indiana and Cities Service were firm. Industrials Vary Industrial specialties varied slight- ly from yesterday's final levels. Great Atlantic & Pacific moved up several points on its usual small turnover, Ford stocks were active and firm. In the investment group, preferred rallied ing. Othes were steady. Call money renewed on the curb lat 2% per cent. BONDS IMPROVE; ACTIVITY SLUMPY| Foreign Pressune Less | New York, Oct. 156 (A—The im- proved tone of the bond market whigh first manifested itself last Fri- | day was again in evidence today. The gradual change of trend was reflected in all sections of the list, as price movement narrowed and activ- ity slumped. Municipal issues totaling $21,603,- 000 were publicly offered. The city of Chicago offered $12,200,000 tax anticipation warrants bearing inter- est of 5 3-8 to 6 per cent, and bond issues of Paterson aand Atlantic City, N. J., and St. Louis county, Mo., were marketed. Money Market Firmer A slightly firmer tone of the money market this week, indicated by the absence of call money below the official two per cent rate, and the slight advance of short term time loans was regarded by bank- ers as only temporary. It was as- cribed to the mid-month period when money rates harden somewhat and bankers indicated the market would resume its very easy position within a few days. Indications that the pressure | gainst foreign obligations aurlbm»{ ed to frightened selling had passed, | at least temporarily, was seen in the predominance of plus signs among active issues. Both Latin Americans and Buropean bonds displayed a | fairly steady tone. Such Latin Amer- ican obligations as Sao Paulo State 6s of 1968, Rio De Janeiro 6 1-2s, | Bolivia 7s of 1958 and 1969, and; Rio Grande Do Sul 6s advanced sharply. Movement of European govern- ments was rather narrow and the | tone steady. Rumania 7's and Kar- stadt 6's were strong. Domestic Trading Quiet Trading in the domestic section was generally quiet. Railroad bonds displayed a firm undertone and some of the prominent legal issues registered small advances. Utility issues were miyed but seasoned ob- ligations veered little from the pre- vious closing prices. U. 8. governments were firm and attracted little buying interest. Tree Where Washington Once Rested Is Burned Middletown, Oct. 15 (P A | chestnut tree under which General George Washington sat to eat his dinner while on a march through this section, if tradition 1is correct, was burned today. The tree was more than 200 years old, and stood at the junction of Pine street and | Longhill Road, on a triangle of land owned by the city. It was hol- low in the trunk and its spreading branches did not helle its great | age. The story {s that as General Washington sat under the tree a| number of the village boys gathered around him. One of them, in bold- | ness, said to the general: “Why, | you're only a man!"” | “Yes, my boy,” the general re« | plied “I am only a man after all.” | The tree caught fire from burning | leaves. A family living close by had been burning leaves.
