New York. Oct. 6.-The weakest Sint
in tofcky’e tlttutlon was Liverpool. ItW
r ot ri-^nd to the lie rise hers of >>.
ur^Ay. It absolutely Jecllnel Vh toW
points snl closed weak. The Bouth %z\
a poo-j xrany selling orders and offeru
Hi* actual cottcn more freely. Some out
otdero who took hold of the bull tfM a'
liberal for Saturday, being 10,000 bales,
making a very large business for tbe
week. New Orleans chewed more strength
than Now York and dropped only 9 to 10
points during the regular hours here.
Light frosts were reported in Tennes
see and the weather was generally cooler
east of the Mississippi, but a rising tem
perature was predicted by the signal ser
vice department for the next twenty-four
. Houston's receipts were 16.000, against
5,800. New Orleans expects Monday 22,000
to,24.000 bales, against 12.000 last year.
The receipts at the ports today were es
timated at 36.247, against 37,535 last year.
Spet prices here were lowered 1-16 qf a
cent, making middling uplands 6Vi cents,
•with sales of 285 for spinning. It is sup
posed that a large line of spot cotton
has been sold here within the last fow
days. Liverpool sold here and there was
more or less bear hammering, but the
market is probably* broadening. The out
side public 13 taking more interest In the
speculation. Some New Orleans dispatches
today were bullish, taking the ground
that some operators think that the esti
mate of 9.000.000 bales will not stand fire,
seeing how much the crop movement is
running behind that of 1891. An early
frost would make prices jump; that la
conceded. In the mean time the port re
ceipts are undoubtedly below the expec
tation. Moreover there is more talk about
the strike situation in New England. Cot-
ton goods were selling more freely at an
advance and the mills show a disposition
to settle the strike If the favorable condi
tion of the goods market continues. In
fact, some think the strike Is likely to
be settled at any moment. Much will de
pend upon the weather in the South, as
well as the crop movement, but if Liver
pool gets up steam again on Monday New
SUN’S COTTON REVIEW.
New York, Oct. 6.—The Sun’s Cotton re
view says: Cotton declined 15 to 16 points
and closed quiet and steady. Sales, 84,000
bales. Liverpool declined 1-324 on tho
spot and 216 to 5 points for future deliv
ery, closing easy. . New Orleans dropped
7 to 3 points during “change” hours. Port
receipts were estlraatedi at 36,247, against
36,831 this day last week, 37,535 last year
and 55,157 in 1891. The weather was cooler
east of the Mississippi and light frosts
were reported in Tennessee. Cooler weath
er was predicted for tho astrn portion or
Gorgla andi the southern portion of South
Carolina, but warmer weather for most
of the cotton region.
Yosterday one house Is said to have sold
a large line of spot cotton here and
bought futures against it. A few October
notices have been issued during the last
few days. Tho New York warehouse Is
down to 70,000 bales, against 120.000 a year
ago, 248,000 in 1832, 135,000 in 1891. New Or
leans' receipts on Monday are estimated
at 22,000 to 24.000 against 14,720 last Mon
day and 12,252 last year.
Today’s features.—The bears were con
siderably surprised at the news from Liv
erpool today. That market was the wet
test kind of a wet blanket to their hopes.
The decline ensued under tho weight of
heavy hedging sales therea gainst the
buying of th actual cotton. The weather
at the South was generally clear. The
New Orleans estimate for Monday was
large. -Local, Southern and European
selling ccntrlbuted to the depression.
Thero was more or less bear hammering.
Somb outsiders who had bought of late
sold today. Warmer weather was pre
dicted for most parts. But the crop move
ment is certainly smaller than 'n the
9.000,000 crop year, the price is lower and
Is attracting universal attention and an
early frost would make life decidedly in
teresting to the shorts. The Fall River
dispatches encourago the Idea that the
reopening of the mills at on early date
In view of the better condition of the
cotton goods market Is by no means Im
probable. New Orleans, from being a hot
bed of bearish adherents, shows a rather
more bullish bias than New York at the
present time. It is a large cotton specu
lation now, the fluctuations are moro vio
lent and there is more disposition on the
part of outsiders to .-take a hand.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Chicago, Oct 6.—Wheat dragged through
in the most desultory manner today.
There was scarcely any gossip worthy
of consideration and scalpers were the
only people doing anything. They man
aged to either eke out a few eighths of a
cent or drop an equal amount according
to the views they held or. the side they
worked on. The outside did nothing and
the loqil professionals of heavy calibre
were conspicuous by their absence. After
a rather Arm opening prices held quite
steady, but ranged within narrow limits.
December wheat opened at 63%, sold be
tween 53% and 5la51ffl, closing at 54-%a%
a cent higher than yesterday. Cash wheat
was quiet and steady.
Corn was nervously responsive to buy
ing or selling. Prices ruled higher than
yesterday, but there was no indication of
improvement or significant trading. Light
receipts and steady cables, with the Apen-
lng strength of wheat, had a beneficial
influence on the market at the start, he
gain made then being held until the beli
tapped at the close. May corn, opened
from 61 to 50%. sold between 60%a% and
51%. closing % of a cent higher than yes
terday. Cash corn was steady at yester
day’s nominal close, which was easier
than the actual trading tone on that day.
Oatn did not get outside of a quarter
cent range all through the session. Busi
ness was very light, changes In prices
coming from similar action In wheat and
com. The close was unchanged from yes
terday. Cash oatsw era steady.
Provisions.—There was no Inclination to
■ell hog product today, while It was ap
parent that there were a few buying or
ders in the market. This condition caused
firmness in prices without any great
amount of trading. A slightly easier open
ing was due to weakness in the .ive hog
market, but that Influence soon wore off,
a better feeling succeeding. The dorn
was 12% cents higher than yesterday for
January pork, 7V-* cents higher for Jan
uary lard and 10 cents higher for January
ribs.
