Sew York, 8ept' 22.—There was an active trade at the opening of the local cotton market today. First prices were 2 to 0 points lower, Influenced by weak ness In the market at Liverpool, where continental selling produced a weaker undertone. A feature here after the call was selling of October and buying of December at 33 points difference. • ... For the short session today there was slightly more activity In the cotton market, but the Increase in business was at the expense of values. Liverpool was due unchanged, where, as the close was 4 points lower for fu tures and 2 points down at 5.55 on sales of 4,000 bales. The opening In New York to meet the decline In Liverpool was due to open about 8 points lower, but Instead 4 to 6 points as the extent of the de fine. However, opening prices were the highest, while the closing was with in a point of the lowest net 6 to 8 points lower with the tone steady. Hearlsh advices from the crop were more numerous than for the past two or three days, IncIDdlng Improvement In the weather generally nnd Indica tions that the crop Is In a more prom ising condition.

The tendency was easy, but In the ab sence of pressure, long were not wor ried nnd most of them were content to keep the accounts open over the Sun day interval. The weather conditions a? a whole were seasonable, and the emp data coming tp hand failed to bring about any changes In the esti mates of the statisticians. The receipts continued moderate, but since pickings ire accumulating rather rapidly on the plantations, it is likely that there will be an early Increase In ginning and a consequent Increase In the movement toward the ports. There Is a fair ex port demand and the European con sumers are expected to shortly develop Into good buyers of spot stuff. It Is apparent, however, that the specula tive market will contlne of a trad er’s c haracter for some days to come, and scalping profits should be taken as they appear.

Rent. 2.—For some unex- tdnlned reason, tnere was n sharp break n the Liverpool market thla morning that brought about liberal selling on this side of the water. Rhorts had been covering for some time on the theory that tho crop deterioration has been such and the demand for s|>ot cotton so good that, temporarily, nt least, an advance In the future mar ket might bo expected. Going on this option, a grent deal of the abort cot- haa been covered dnrlng the rest two or three weeks, and ai the market approaches the October notice day, the weight of the actual cotton has been lo- orankiinflr full frnin dsv to <lsr. Under , ... sell short was very natural, but It now lie* gins to look ns though the amount of cot ton lielng picked In, the Routh was too much for the market, even at present f rices. Though the market opened almiit points lower, there was an aggressive demand from shorts, lasting for some time, but as the morning wore on, these order* were nil filled and price* moved lower. The market ran off rather easily, nnd while shorts bought, extensively, the tone did not show the resistance noticeable heretofore. We are likely to have nn jrw THE COFFEE MARKET.

Optlonn closed 4 point* lower, while spot sales were 4,000 hales 2 points lower. Increased activity and a wider range In price changes from the ruling narrowness quirked the day's developments. Besrlsb activity was more prominent on excellent weather conditions, good^rop news nnd the Bank Statement Was About A.8 Expected and Was Without Effect. v New York, Sept. 22.—This morning'* market presented to the speculative community the disconcerting spectacle of prices going down under "good news." The weekly bank statement, even with the allowance for tho un recorded cash gain of last Saturday, was better a good deal than had been expected. Cash holdings Increased over $12,000,000, and^with loans expanding $7,200,000 this still sufficed to leave a surplus reserve gain of $7,800,000. The surplus Item la thus raised to the comfortable total of $11,000,000 and stands now almost $6,000,000 above what It was at thq corresponding pe riod Inst year.' Nevertheless, the mar ket'! response to this favorable show ing was a feeble rr*lly just'after the appearance of the figures, followed by a renewal of weakness all through the list, final prices being about the lowest of the day. The bank statement makes It harder than ever, of course, to understand the week's hardening of time money rates. Nor waa the course of the morning’s security dealings Intelligible on any other ground than a highly manipulat ed market, moving, aa such markets do* In direct opposition to outside news.
