WALL STREET AETER
FIRST-HOUR TRADING
“Good Buying” Was Fea
tured During the Day and
Helped to Cause the
Come-Back
By Associated Press
New York, August 5.—The stout re
sist^ee offered by many speculative
stocks in the course of today’s ex
tremely lively session was commonly
accepted as proof that yesterday’s vio
lent decline of the general list had
been carried beyond reasonable limits.
Weakness prevailed at the opening,
leaders of the various groups extend
ing yesterday's losses by 1 to 5 points,
but after the first hour an impressive
rebound ensued which continued, sub
ject to realizing for profits to the
close.
The rally clearly resulted from a
combination of what is technically
called “good buyingJ’ and covering of
short contracts in the more representa
tive issues, notably transportations
and seasoned industrials.
Important factors v.Vich accompanied
the improvement included advices from
leading terminals which pointed to a
subsidence of the railway shopmen’s
strike and the more hopeful views of
railroad officials regarding the rail
road situation. Monetary conditions
which have figured so conspicuously
in last week's hesitqfit market, o
gave impetus to the rally, call loans
leflecting less discrimination against
all industrial collateral. The market
was almost bare of time funds, howr
ever. 7 to 7% per cent being offered
for the short maturities.
Industrials generally recognized as
of the peace division and specialties
which owe their activity to profession
al interests manifested greater resil
iency in today's dealings than former
favorites, where rallies were compar
atively nominal.
Foreign exchange was again un
settled on the further weakness of
French rates, francs falling to 7.4 5.
Italian and Swiss exchange also moved
in favor of this market.
Liberty bonds were steady, but th<
general bond list was irregular and
without special feature. Sales, pa*
value, aggregated $12,450,000. Old U
fc. bonds were unchanged on call.

which was promoted by the decline
reported in Santos futures.
Otherwise there was very little pres
sure, however, and the market soon
turned firmer, although no change of

iGeneral Market Closed Very
• Steady at a Net Decline of
. 65 to 85 Points Under
Previous Day
By Associated Press
New York, August 5.—There was con
tinued excitement and further violent
fluctuations in the cotton market today.
An 'Sarly break of about 147 points to
30.85c for October contracts was followed
by a recovery of 155 points to 32.40c for
that position, but prices weakened again
with October closing at 31.45c, and with
the general market closing very steady
at a net decline of 65 to 85 points.
The early selling was even more ex
cited than it had been yesterday. The
weakness of Liverpool and the failure
of the morning news to indicate any im
provement in labor conditions seemed to
increase the nervousness of remaining
longs, and after opening 5 to 40 points
lower, active month* sold 137 to 147 points
befc-w last night's closing figures. This
carried December off to 31.06c and Jan
uary to the same price, mailing declines
uf approximately 4^c a pound from
the high level of Saturday morning and
of 5c from the high record of late last
month. The more urgent liquidation then
subsided, and the market turned firmer
on covering ot shorts. Some buying be
lieved to be for trade -account also ap
peared to be attracted by the lower prices
and there was a sharp advance during
the middle of the day, with December
selling up to 10 or 15 points net higher.
The hulk of the demand was attributed to
profit-taking by recent sellers, however,
and the marked met a renewal of more
or less general liquidation above last
night’s closing figures, with the result
that later fluctuations were very irregu
lar. with the close showing reactions of
seme 00 to 96 points from the best.
Trade buying was more in evidence late
in the afternoon, but there was also sell
ing here by southwestern interests be
lieved to be against spots.

New Orleans Cotton
New Orleans, August 5.—Further
pressure to sell cotton appeared to
day and the market dropped to levels
about $25 a bale down from the high
est prices reached during the last week
ot .July. General liquidation of long
contracts and a large volume of short
offerings appeared on the opening and
again in the late part of the session
Around the middle of the day there
were strong recoveries, but in the
afternoon fresh weakness carried the '
market down to about the lowest. The ,
close showed net losses for the ses
sion of TO to 78 points.
The initial decline amounted to 138
to 163 points and not a little of the •
tarly selling was due to pessimistic l
stock market reports of overnight and j
the continue^ agitation over the high i
cost of living. The weather map also !
was considered favorable enough to be i
a bearish factor. The recoveries from ■
the decline were due to realizing by j
shorts while the afternoon break was •
based on the weakness of France ex
change.
In the last half hour of business
there was more realizing by shorts j
and this demand closed the day with |
a steady tone.

an hour faster than anything in the
world.”
