L. J. ANDERSON A CO/S. . DAILY COTTON LETTER. New York, Oct. 24.-The New York mar- ket opened S to 10 up this morning on a letter Liverpool thnn expected. It was re- ported that Mr. Price was responsible for the strength In the Liverpool market, with the view of unloading hla longs in New York. Anyway, heavy realising at oi>en!ng caused prices to sag back to n yesterday's figures. Mr. Prices gin about .c.ir.w.; - . — . glnnln* figures were out In the early session, show ing 4.400,000 to 4.800,000 bales ginned to Octo ber 18, nnd Indicating a yield of ll.OQO.OOO bales. This report on Its face wss bullish, but the trade wna not inclined to give It much credit. The general expectation la that the government report will show sooto; thing over 5,000,000 bales. This report wll l»o Issued nt 2 o’clock P»' Thursday sad Its effect on the market win depend on bow much It varies from these figures. Should It range above the 6,000,000 mark the market will probably decline rapidly, and under 4,600,000 will advance It the same way.
