be held at the Grand Pacific hotel Chica-

fact. An attractive programme for this

interesting features of the meeting will
probably be the discussion growing out of
the report, which the Hon. j. II. Pickrell

REVIEW OF COTTON,

New YORK, October 9.-Hubbard, Price
u Co. say the market opened with a show
of frmness, but heavy sales of October
contracts depressed that option to nearly
twenty points discount, as compared with
November, and weakened the whole list
until prices were slightly below last night.
By this time, however, advices from New
Orleans were received that the state
commissioner of agriculture, of Louisiana,
reported crop prospects in that state as
from twenty to twenty-five per cent below
it, condition this time last year. This
news speedily lifted the market until
distant positions were selling at ten points
above last night, and the close was fairly
steady, with improvement we'll main

changes in the prices of any commodity
since our last weekly report.

to leave a majority of the list slightly
higher than last evening. Opening fig
