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. LIVERPOOL. Uvermwii.

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. FUTURE QUOTATIONS.

Liverpool stocks are estimated to de crease about 100.000 bushels Monday. The Shipments for the week. 735.425 bufhcla, exceed the receipts by 37,454 bushels, whllo the visible supply is not expected to in crease over 500,000 bushels, against 2.500,000 bushels Increase • last year. The market today, although dall, was held firm throughout the .session, closing at a slight advance. Should a continuation of theso favorable conditions cxkn.. .the paining week it would hot be unreasonable to ex. pect a marked increase in values. The desideratum of the corn market (cash demand) to a certain extent ma terial U2d the past day or two and prices as a consequence have ruled at a higher range. Trading today has been quiet and of an Insignificant character, prices have been confined within a range ot H of a cent, but the market was held llrm, clos ing at tho high point, 6114. for May.
