The suns cotton review SAYS: Futures
opened fiat, but almost Immediately demand
sprung up for October, which carried the price
to 10 Ale, and November sympathzed, rising to
10 01c, but later months were neglected, and
when notices for October delivery were issued
to the extent of $4,000 bales, there was de-
cline to 10 36c, with which later months sympa-
thized, although interior receipts and stocks
were small. Cotton on spot was steadier and
more active.n

CHICAGO. ILL.,, Oct. 4.--Wheat was again
lacking In snap and devoid of sensational
features to-day. The opening was on level
with Yesterdays closings, ami after numerous
and freouedt fluctuations within NC range,
December selling up to 62Ac, the market ap-
peared to get into rut, out OF which 1t could
not be disloged by either side Although prices
ayera ged fractionally above yesterdays closing,
the undertone was weak and surface indications
were bearish. Reported arrivals Of over 700
cars of wheat at Minneapolis and Duluth and n
dispatch saying that Minneapolis miliers had
reduced their buying prices / cent in the
country had a depressing effect here. Realizing
sales early and slump TO 31Nc for December,
