STEVENS’ COTTON LETTER.

New York, Sept. 14.—Tne pivot on wnicn
the market swung today was tne receipts
at the Interior towns—tney were Target
than had been expected. The regular in
terior towns, it was rappoeed, would
get 25,000. but they really got ri.zw bales.
The exchange now .nmrporates a num*
btr of Interior towns in its statement ot
Interior receipts. Hut regular ngurer, n
much In excess ot expect ations, and near
ly 17,000 bales or :ast week ana in,aw
more than in tne week last year, told tne
story and realty; ata morj man anyimng
else to depress price*? Besides, port re
ceipts exceeded tne estimate tor me week
and Liverpool made no response to tne
advance here yesterday, ana there vv
some local long selling, some raiding,
however, by prominent operators »eanj
contributed to tne depreasion. m* aecttrr

It seemed to be in entirely small lots]
there being no conspicuous trading. Trad

fluctuating, within a very narrow range.
The pouting or large estimator receipts
for tomorrow tended still Turtner to weak

however, was the receipts, whten was

LAMSON’S GRAIN LETTER.
Special Wire to Lyons & James. ‘
Chicago, Sept. 14.—with a tmek near sen
tlment prevailing, trade principally local,
the wheat market opened with a decline
of % to %c. from yesterdays close, wui:
considerable dumping by tne scalping ele
ment, the shorts guinea an additional %c
at which point there was some fair buy
ing, but the market being devoid of snap
and sympathy with depression witn corn
was too weak to recover, caused by mt
fear of a further depression by primary
receipt*, light ekport and Increase in tit
visible supply caused considerable selling
by those who have heretofore displayed
a friendly feeling toward this cereal, do
long as receipts at primary points are so
much in excess of domestic milling and
foreign demand, as to cause a weekly in
crease of 1,000,oot> to 2,WU,W0 bushels, we
can see nothing but ti beansn market
ahead at least to the extent ot carrying
charges.
Corn—It Is evident that a case or tne
last straw breaking of the camel's back.
Thotnan comes in-this morning Witn a
1,627,000,000 corn crop, and tne last vestige
of faith In the government's figures sunk
Into oblivion, the market opening % to
%c. under the ciose of yesterday, me
large local receipts, 463 cars, nad a very
depressing effect and persistent liquidation
declined prices % to %c. towards tno mid
dle of the session, a littio strengtn was
displayed on predictions or trost and
cold weather, but was not sustained, tn«
the raiding tactics ot certain speculators
proving too successful, and later tne post,
ins of 659 cars for tomorrow proved seom*
what of a puzzle to the May option ana
touched 63%, a decline or i%e. rrom tne
closing quotations or yesterday.
Oats-With a fairly active opening,
though at a shade lower m price, oats
were firm, considering the weaknecs in
the other cereals, tho sentiment, however,
of local operators was of tne same order
as prevailed In the other markets, ana
regardless* or every %c. decline, tne mar
ket rallied heavy and depressed, prices at
tho close “showing a-loss of %c.
Provisions opened, baraiy steaay at a
shado lower; prices suffered a break ot
25 to 30c. In January pork, which caugnt
many stop orders on tho way down, me
trading has not been neavy and principal*
ly at n local character. Hogs at the yards
were aboat ns expected' and ruled nrm
and active with best gradas 6 cents nigner,
others 5 to 10 cents lower; poor demand
for caah^ product.
