MOUNTAINEERING an advance OF 80 in
spots at New York, and much greater i'm
provement in futures, the market opened
with only moderate demand, and at easier
rates, some sales showing decline of sc.
but toward l P. NJ the demand materially
improved, and quite an active business was
done flor the rest of the day at steadier
and, in some cases, sitter prices, without
requiring any change in quotations. The

We have hitherto been Indebted to Mr..
Henry Hyman, the courteous assistant of
Messrs. Lowell & Bailey, for daily state
ment of the amount on shipboard not
cleared, going en- board and engaged for
shipment. Deducting the aggregate of these
sums from the stock on hand by our run
ming statement, the balance was given as
an approximate estimate of the amount
unsold, plus whatever might have been en-
gagged and not yet purchased, minus what
might have been bought and not vet en-
gagged. The figures. however, were near
enough to the fact for all practical purposes,
and were received with the confidence due
to Mr.. Hyman's well known accuracy and
fidelity. He has now relinquished this
voluntary task, leaving it to be executed
by the Cotton Exchange, which furnishes
us the following statement:
Stock of cotton on shipboard in the port
of New Orleans, October l5-For Liver
