New York, Sept. 7.—The opening was steady at unchanged prices to an ad vance of 6 points, owing to higher ca bles. and prices held around the Initial figures during tho forenoon, although offerings were quite heavy and demand showed little Indication of broadening. Europe and Wall street sold here, while the buying seemed to come from prac tically the same sources as yesterday, Including some of the local trade In terests and shorts. The European sell Ing was thought to Indicate profit taking by some of the European Inter ests who sold on the valorization ad vance, covering on the subsequent de cline, and hive recently sent out rather bullish messages and might now be tnklng a moderate profit on long coffee. A prominent local authority on coffee subjects In an article published this morning states that the recent decline In Brasilian markets and lower firm offers have resulted from the forced realising of speculatively held supplies, retbsrtni * * |M| jan selling by growers, and this seemed to accord with a private cable gram received late yesterday from Havre that Santos holders were with drawing offerings also with the higher primary markets, according to this morning’s cables.

One of tho largest and most'reliable spot houses In this market received the following telegram from Hope, Ark., today In response to a query: "We cannot make firm offer; at present on account of light receipts. In some sections tho crop Is undoubt- edly turning out later than expected and the lateness Is affecting the move ment to eome extent. Again, many farmers are bending all thtlr energies toward picking and are storing their cotton In the seed Instead of ginning It. Edited by Joseph B.

The mar- <et, however, was an exceedingly dull nnd uninteresting affair and n general lack of Interest was displayed on all sides.

It almost Impossible to forecast with any degree of accuracy what the bu reau's estimate of condition will be, for lately so many unfavorable reports have been received nnd eo Insistent have some of them been as to the un mistakable deterioration, that a feel ing has been gaining ground that the true damage has been greatly exag gerated, but then it must be remem bered that the report will embody only that period ending with the 36th of last month, and hence the late unfav orable rain will have become elimi nated.
