THE COTTON MARKET.
NEW’ YORK, Oct. 19.—The cotton mar
ket opened barely steady at a decline of
2 to 9 points, and during the early ses
sion sold at a net loss of 8 to 10 point*
under liquidation and bear pressure. The
selling was encouraged by weakness In
Liverpool, tvhlch was attributed to in
creased Softthern offerings, renewed weak
ness in the stock market, small spinners’
takings for the week and an estimate by
| a prominent Southern authority that the
I recent frost had not curtailed crop poe
i slbililes by over 50,000 bales. During the
1 middle of the 1 lornlaj trading was rather
1
quiet with the market about steady at
the decline.

LOCAL SECURITIES
MONEY TIGHTERTHAN SINCE
PANIC.
Big Differences Between Previous and
Present Prices—Depreciation
in Gas.
General trading In local securities
was light this week because of the
great scarcity of money and the heavy
depreciation in the price of copper
stocks in the New York market. The
crash in those stocks affected all other
securities there and our local securities j
also. Not since the last financial panic j
has money been so tight. Many per
sons in Newark and Essex County |
would like to buy bonds of local cor- i
poratlons because prices are so low,
but they cannot borrow the money even
on good collateral. >
Orders for several large blocks of
bonds were booked this week by brok
ers for men who have money, for bonds .
that pay 4 to 5 per cent, interest ate j
from 10 to 15 points lower in price than j
they were a year ago. Good local se- i
curitles fell off from 2 to 5 points this]
week because large blocks were thrown !
on the market by men who speculated j
in copper stocks. They bought on mar
gin and when the crash in the copper
stocks came the local securities which
they had put up as security were sent
to Newark by New York brokers and
banks to be sold at a sacrifice.
“Our banks ate in a far better condi
tion than the New York banks are,”
said a financier “for our banks are not
calling in loans. Our merchants and
manufacturers are heavy borrowers
from the banks, for they need cash in
their business. The trouble Is that rail
roads and other corporations and busi
ness men have been borrowing great
sums of money all through the United
States, and speculation in real estate
has taken a vast amount of money out
of the' banks.
"Conditions are worse than if we naa a
financial panic; after recovery from a
panic money has always been plenty, but
the stringency In money has been on
for some time, and there is no prospect of
a betterment for a long time.”
Consolidated Traction stock sold this
week in the market at 61 to 64, a loss of
three to four points since last week, while
the bonds sold a point off at 99 and par.
White Line bonds sell at 60, a loss of 2%
points, but North Jersey bonds remained
at 64. Public Service certificates sold at .
57 and 5S. a loss of two points, but the
notes held their own at 93. United Electric
bonds lost two points, selling at 60 and 61.
Newark passenger bonds remained firm
at 103.
The heaviest depreciation in value wa.»
,'n gas /securities. Essex and Hudson Gas
stock sold off five points at 105 and 10b,
and Hudscn Countyy Gas stock lost live
points also, sales being made at 92 and 9a,
while the bonds sold at 99 and par. New
ark Consolidated Gas bonds sold at 101 and
102, a point off. All gas securities de
preciated in market value.
There was no trading in bank and in
surance stock. It was said that If money
conditions do not improve savings banks
will not make loans on new mortgages at
5 per cent, interest.

Boston, advised the railroad men to be
friendly with the press at all times, as it *
was a power which could affect the earn
ing capacities of surface lines.
The engineering section elected these
officers: President, F. Q. Simmonds, Mil
waukee: first vice-president, Paul Win
sor. Boston; second vice-president, F. H.
Lincoln. Philadelphia: secretary and treas
urer. J. W. Corning, Boston. The Railway
