TALK OF POLITICS AND rVAR NEWS
CAUSES UNSETTLED MARKET
I
Discussion of Possible Readjustment of U. S. Steel
Dividend Policy Arouses Interest Declines
Follow Good Advances, in Early Trading
' New York, Oct. .28.
Talk iilmut politic oiicl references to confused situation In Kurope
caused mi unsettled stock market In the forenoon today, and many Issue
were under pressure that had shown strength and nctlvlty In the opening
transaction. There was also n good deal of talk In the Street about a
probable readjustment of the t tilted States Steel dividend policy, by which
thai stock may bo plnced on a 10 per cent basis at tomorrow's meeting,
with a 2',4 per cent straight quarterly dividend Instead of the 17 per cent
tegular and extra rate that have prevailed for some time.
, There was a disposition to regard the war developments favorably
nnd the. market opened with this feeling prevailing among commission
house clients, who were heavy buer In the first few minutes.
Pool' manipulators were also aggressive, and for a time the maiket
seemed to be buo.vnnt, but It was not long before the demand was all
filled and opening gains In many,tocks were quickly turned Into losses,
United H'ates Steel sold at the opening at 111, fimn which ll reacted
to 109V4, und lltildwln Locomotive, nfter advancing to 87 li, dropped to
834.
Mexlcdn Petroleum had. Its usual wide- fluctuations, ndviinrlug 10
points to 186, and then dropped to 177. Copper stocks were the strong
est gfoup on the floor, nearly all' these Issues making gains of around I
point.
Itatlvoad Issues made ndvances of siround 1 point In the first few mill- ,
iites, which weie lost before the end of the first hour.

Frost news over Sunday and the Im
pn.ved political situation were teflected
In n tlrm opening In the cotton minuet,
with prices 11 to 22 point" net higher.
The South and Liverpool bought while
Avail street sold moderately.
The early advance on the whether
news and mole optimistic view of peace
and export prospects, met Inci eased of
ferings at 30.70c for December nnd
.10.311c for January, at which price the
nuu km was about 32 to 41 points net
higher and 165 to ITi points nbove the
low level of lat Thursday.
The feeling appeared to be that, 1111
unusually laige peieentage of the ciop
having been already picked, only mini
mum damage could result from the 1111
f.ivoiable weather, while the forecast
was for clear and warmer In the south
west where frosts d nnot appear to
have been geneial.
The failure or the pnlifluil, war and
shipping nvs to Ini-plre a more gen
eral demand was al-n a disappointment
to recent buyers and the market was
weaker duilng the middle of tho morn
ing under realizing, with active niontlH
selling about I to 13 point) net lower.
Ttecelpts nt the ports for the day were
22,000 bales, compared with 26,028 baleH
