PUBLIC HOLDS ALOOF Professionals Fight Among Themselves—Spot Cot ton Firmly Held. yew York, Sept. 19.—In view of the cables the opening of the local cotton market this morning was disappointing, Ar»t prices being 1 to 4 points lower, In- Huenced by heavy selling pressure from strong Interests who were Identified with the bear side yesterday. After the call the local market rallied 2 to 3 points from the bottom. The Liverpool market at the opening this nomine was not discouraging.

New Orleans. Sept. 19.—The Times Dem ocrat: "Yesterday a cotton market wns nn ungracious affair. Foreign talent, stirred by the crop deterioration reports sent from America, did the JogjrnJ thing and bought contracts. The ela-Atlnntle talent, cove tous nnd quick to recognise an advantage, sold the stuff on the hard spot created by sundry bullish cablegrams. The result wns n division, nnd the aftermath will probably be the growth of suspicion abroad which mav he reflected there In less buoy ancy In the near future, though In the ab sence of proof that the acreage has been seriously underestimated, there is no rea son why the cotton mnrket should not continue to pursue the even tenor of It* way. nt least, until the relation of demand to supply be more fully determined. Clear ly enough, the American public la lu no mood to I most tho fortunes of the staple where good money Is the stake. Hence, the tactics of the professional, whose only opponent now Is some brother profes sional of the opposite persuasion, are ex- R lalnable on the theory of the survival of le fittest. .Meanwhile, the game Is not worth the candle. Thus far. spot sellers have found spot buyers, eager enough, and discounting an early alteration In current attitude In this respect may develop fresh complications, neither the farmer nor the antnner having got down to business.

The public continues 4o play the waiting game, and In the menntlmo the ring traders amuse themselves b* playing ping pong with She market, one day bulls, the next bears. Crop reports continue to come In very innch mixed, some claiming that prospects have never been better anil others that they sre very poor. There Is nn doubt but thnt conditions have been de teriorating rnpldly for the last three weeks, n« Is nsunl for s wet season ns we havo had, and by the October report of the gov ernment we expect to see a substantial fall ing off In the figures. Wo do not believe In the bum|»er erop estimates that have lieen floating around, and think we will do well to get n.750,000, which will hardly lie suf ficient to supply the demand In view of the small surplus carried over. Also with the lateness of the crop, we think present prices too low to hold.

But the local traction and other franchise stocks, which would naturally suffer most di rectly from the election of a radical governor at Albany, was no weaker than the reat of thfc list. The stiffness of call money, which ruled above 7 per cent during the forenoon, was an Im portant factor In trading before tho noon hour and Increased In the after noon session.
