GIBERT & CLAY’S
. DAILY COTTON LETTER.
New Orleans, Oet. 8.—Liverpool cables
were more unfavorable than of fate and op
tions finally closed 22 to 23 points lower
than Saturday's levels. There was also u
decided weakness in the spot situation,
sales amounting to 7,000 bales at 16 points
lower. There were few If any develop
ments In the market during the day. A
decided tendency on the part of all con
corned to let the market severely nloue wa*
manifested, although the weather was per
fect, temperatures being rather low.
Reports from the country also were to the
effect that the first damage reported was
greatly exaggerated, and that now that-dry
clear weather exists, a great improvement
in the affected area lias resulted, and that
cotton now looks excellent after only one
day's sunshine. It seems perfectly nat
ural to assume that when the long delayed
movement finally gets under wav, and
should the spot situation, which even now
shows signs of weakening, becomes easier
considerable difficulty will be experienced
In maintaining current vnlues.

Atlantn. Oct. 8.—The recent heavy mins
nvc greatly retarded the gathering nud
flipping of apples In the principal np-
legrowing sections throughout the cast
ml west. A scarcity, more or less severe,
as necessarily resulted. Advices are,
owevtr. to fin* effect that an ample sup-
Ir to meet normal requirements Is now
, i trnndt to this market.
A tremendous demand has prevailed, and
U prevailing for the famous Lnke Kciikn

Van. S. Y., and arc recognised superior to
any basket grapes put up In the United

trnpes are plentiful, with the height of
the season on.
The demand for Florida oranges growing
itronxer dally, fruit from this section be
ing sufficiently well colored to attrnct a
liberal and general demand and consump
tion. The Florida crop Is reported of nor
mal yield, with quality above overage.

STOCKS REVIEWED
BY NEW YORK SUN
New York, OcL 8.—The Run says: “There
were no such sensntlonnl occurrences Inst
week affecting the stock uinrket ns there
were in the week preceding, and most of
reek the price movement of stocks held
steadily within n narrow range. Specula
tion could hardly be said to bo inactive,
inasimich ns the dally volume of stock ex
change transactions averaged above a mil
lion shares, and on Friday the official an
uouncemnt of the consummation ol
the ore deni transaction that had so Jong
hung'fire between the Great Northern rail
way aud various private owners on the
hand and the United Htntes Steel Corp_...
tlou on the other, gave n fillip to the
market which sent quotations up very
briskly. A feeling seemed to prevail that
the fall elections, and- perhaps, by rea
son of other causes, there would be no
great operations undertaken by the lend
ers In the financial world /or some weeks
to couio, and that In the meantime, there
fore. the security market might lie ex
pected to bo dull, or. nt least, less ani
mated than It has been during the month
»»f September. One thing that was very ev
ident throughout the week Was that the
money situation was easier, nud this was
really the most Important development of
the Inst six business days.; Call money
sagged steadily from n ruling rate of 7
r cent on - Monday to a ruling rate or
per cent on Friday, and that It dim
Jnyed this ease wiis not a llttlo surpris
ing to bankers who had believed that, ow
ing to the time thnt wna necessary to
elapse before tbe money distributed on the
first of October, fairly stiff call money
rates would be prolonged quite a little.’*—
