DAILY COTTON LETTER.
New Orleana, Oct. 9.—On day* of dnll
trading one can usually get the best In
sight Into prevailing professional sentiment.
People have time to exchange opinions, an.l
such was freely done yesterday. We can
snfHy state that sctitlinent was pronounced-

und expressions from New York arc rather
positive aliour much further decline

these intentions ns the other market* run

k'r.ini, we may be guided accordingly in our
doing*, with bull support na limited ns at

might prevent the Execution of those plans.
one i* continued bad weather to delay
movement and marketing; the second Is

l»e sold to facilitate the management of
'he imtnnce. on the other band, consumer*
«re eontfnually fielng primed about the un
favorable conditions for bull speculation,
■lid they are, therefore, buying ns slowly
■■ possible. Rad Wenther to lower grades
and create concentrated demand for good
qualities would, therefore, l>e, after all,
the heat assistance to friends of the staple.
Liverpool waa rather weak the greater part

of the market.
Yarn price* ate today below the cost of
raw cotton, na the decline In the raw mate
rial has been more than discounted In the
yarn market. I .urge Southern spinners are
reported to be getting together for the pur-
|N>se of holding their supplies out of the
market for the present and until prices be

nfford to .do this, bat the t/ncttlon Is. what
the smaller splnnera who are running out of
orders will do In the meantime.
If these go Into the market for new bus!
ness and offer to take on orders for future
delivery nt present prices, or even slightly
higher prices, the market can hardly lie ex
pected to show any upward tendency. *
nddltlon to this, there Is a fear that dec. .
lined pressed for ready money will continue
to dump their holdings on the market.-
Looked nt from n reasonable standpoint,
there Is no cause for the yarn spinner to
accept the extremely low prices that are l**-
Ing demanded, as spinners throughout the
country have very large orders on their
books, the deliveries running from now ou
Into nest year. Yuma will be required fo
turn out those goods and will have to 1>o
purchased sooner or Inter. The situation lu
the yarn ninrket Is doing much harm lu
many directions.
Print Cloth Sales Light.
Very little business was put through yes
terday on print cloths In this market.. Hell
ers are making no further concessions on
narrow odd* and buyers are content to got
along with the good* they have in hand.
Regulars arc still held at 5%e: 28-Inch 64x60s

were to *ee a decline In corn and oats re

The argument will l*e made that I* the. last
