New York, Sept. 23.—The Sun’s cotton
review says: A decline took place at the
opening, owing to lower quotations In
Liverpool and liberal :eceipts at *he ports,
but later on most of the loss was recov
ered, owing to the covering of shorts. The
signal service predicted slightly cooler
weather in many parts of the South, with
northerly winds in some sections, und

we believe our market will show k liber

Provisions have been strong for the past

the speculative trade has been light, it

Hog product was higher today «<n higher
prices at the yards and good foreign rnd
