hubbard. Price & Co.'S cotton circular says:
| "A liberal movement in receipts, both at the
| ports and interior towns, resulted in a decline
| OF some 1895 points from yesterdays prices.
| From this slight reaction secured, and
| the close was steady at about last nights
| prices. The most noticeable allure of the day
| has been an advance in OctoberS, which are 10
! ole points higher than yesterday, the revision
| in quotations before alluded to having increased
| their value to about that extent Beyond this
the market was featureless, and trading was of
limited and professional character"

| CHICAGO, Oct 12-The wheat market was
| again a repetition of the preceding days,
noticeably so for rapid and violent fluctuations.
| A fair speculative business was reported, but
| generally confined to professional traders, out
| side operators doing but little. Domestic mar
kets, although ruling stronger do not respond
| to the advance here, and Chicago prices are
| from 2615c above New York, StLouis and other
markets. excepting those in the northwest.
which are higher than Chicago. Should this
difference be maintained, it will have the effect
| of turning wheat in this direction which would
| naturally seek other channels. Still, receipts
here show but little increase over preceding
| days. Prices at the opening were advanced 2G6
| 2L4c for December AMI NC for May over the
| closing figures of yesterday, with Aay at one
