Macon, Oct. 15.
Macon, Oct. 15.-Our market is steady
at tae following quotations:
• Good middling -. £J4
Middling
Strict low middling
Lou middllns
Good orddnary
liquidation for New York and the South.
Europe sent selling oiders. The signal
service predicted frost in North Carolina,
cooler weather for northwest Texas, Ok
lahoma and Indian Territory, hut warmer
for the greater portion of the cotton belt
by tomorrow night. Unless* Liverpool
shows more snap or there are serious
developments detrimental to the crop or
some let up in receipts many believe
pricis may fall to a still lower level. The
closo hero vaa quiet, with sales of 140,900.
Prices fell 7 to 8 points.

STEVENS & CO.'S COTTON.
Now York, Oct 15.—TWe weight of the
actual cotton anl disappointing Liver
pool advices more than counterbalanced
the effect of cold weather advices at tlto
South, although at the opening there was
un advance here of 1 to 2 points. Tho
government reported killing frost at Ar
lington, Bolivar and Milan, Tenn, with
temperature of SO to 83 degrees, prlvato
dlkpatdhcs reported killing frost at Ben-
nettesvllle, S. C.. light frost at Columbia,
S. C., frost at Eufaula,A Ala., and one
dispatch from Memphis reported killing
frosts. But receipts at the porta ran up
to 82,000, against 00,W4 this diy last week
and 50,718 last year. Thus far this week
126,$3, against '07,799 for same time last
week. Liverpool declined i-88d on the
Bpot and was quite irregular for futuiys,
opening 2 points lower and then recover
ing this and fluctuating quite frequently
and Anally ending tteady at a net de
cline of ft point Spot sales there were
15,000 bales. Manchester was quiet and
yarns weak. New Orleins opened strong
er, but later on declined 4 point* Spot
quotations were lowered 1-16 at N.*w
York* Mobile and Charleston, about 1-16
at Augusta, and New Orleans and Mem

CHICAGO GAAIN AND PROVISION.
Chicago, Oct. 15.—Wheat Was very sick
today. Depressing Items of news were
received from every quarter and a lack
of confidence resulted. The visible supply
report was almost as far away from the
eXuct increase ot t.4 f «0,u00 b ishela as they
were on last Monday. Outside predictions
were that 1,000.000 bushels increase would
take place, but tho popular figure was
600,000 bushels. The selling toward! the
dose was general with practically no s*:p*
port to the market. December wheat
opened at G3ft, touched &3ft, declined to
6214, where it clos-.d.
Corn.—The weakness of wheat over
powered com prices today, although the
visible supply decrease was 526,000 bush
els and the amouut on ocean passage
,963.000 bushels. The receipts, although not
fully up to the expectations, were large-
173 cars—and larger estimates for tomor
row are presaged, indicating a further
Improvement in the movement; There
was a car of new corn received today,
which although not passing grade be
cause of dampness, nevertheless served
♦0 remind the trade that the new crop
was upon the market. May opened at
49ft, declined to 48ft,* closing at tno inside,
ft of a cent below Saturday.
Oats were forced lower by the decline
of wheat. The trade was devoid of feat
ure. besides bfcing dull most rof the ses
sion. There were no withdrawals from
stores. . ^
FrovlSlons.—Tiie packers were tho best
sellers of product during the morning
hour*, but wore endeavoring to keep
prices from breaking under tho offerings.
Scalpers were a 111*1* timid until after
the visible supply of wheat was posted
for fear that tho snow would advance
tliat cereal and sympathetically affect
products, but when grain became so in
tensely weak tber caot aside caution and
sold freely. The close was 10 cents lower
than Saturday for January pork, 10 cents
lower for January lard and 7*4 cents
lower for January ribs.
X.AMSON BROS.’ GRAIN LETTER.
Chicago, Oct 15.—The market on wheat
has been weak and sagging; prices show
a lot from the very start. The amount
on passage decreased 352,000 bushels, but
weakness In Liverpool a.tis teen a factor.
Cables say Ruertan offerings are over
whelming. The local receipts of 129 cars
wsre 49 cars over the estimate, while
those in the Northwest, although slightly
under last year, were heavy n.t 1<M. Trade
has been extremely dull the entire day
and shorts had little difficulty In working
down prices to 52ft-a new record. .The
increase of 1,160,000 In tho visible 'fcupply
exceeded all expectations. There was a
conspicuous lack of buying at the de
cline and the close was exceedingly tame
at the low point. The exports wero only
150,000, wheat and flour. The disinclina
tion to enter tho market is still very no
ticeable. Traders on the short side of
the corn market have had things all their
own way and have scored a gain of % of
a cent. A car of now corn Is reported
to have been received here today, but of
too poor a quality to grade. Car lots for
tomorrow of 275 show an Increase, while
lack of cash demand still has Its effect
on trad*. A little strength waa
by % docre*M of K6.000 bushel. In visible
figures. It w»s but tempoiary, however,
the sentiment of local trader* bems
against any improvement, and May waa
quoted at IS',. Commission houses nail a
low lirtit buying orders, while Ihe local
trade was prSelly of the -eUlngcrder
Oats, like the other grains, ruled dull
and heavy. Offerings were quite plentiful
while there was but a scattering of pur-
casers. The visible supply Increased M,-
MO bushels. Prices at the close how a
los of Vi to K ofa c ent.
Provisions opened at a shade loss In,
price. The cash trade wa, very poor,
while h<^e at the yards were barely
steady and 5 to 10 cents lower in prhe.
Speculation In futures Is very limited mid
prices have been conllned within a purge
of 10 cents the entire session.
