Anew YORK, Nov. 1.-THE stock market
Hacked the vigor and the snap of that of
yesterday, and there was not only less bus
mess but the movements, aside from those
in Il very few stocks, were devoid of inter
est and were confined within the narrow
est limits The general tone was hardly
more than firm, and while a few material
gains We're made they were the exceptions
and not the rule. The foreign situation re-
manned practically unchanged.
Domestic affairs were uniformly favora-
BILE to higher figures, and the crop report
was very favordbly received. The buying
power, however, lacked very efficient sup
port from the shorts and while there was
still great deal of that kind of buying
done, it had ceased to have the effect it did
yesterday. The market, as rule, was un-
settled and showed 2 narrowing tendency,
although transactions reached fully as large
4 number of stocks as OF any day recently.
The general list however failed to show
any life and interest in the market was
entirely mouopolized by few shares. The
close was quiet but firm, generally at small
game for the day, but the only advances of
note was Is in Union Pacific.
Railroad bonds less active
Government bonds dull and steady
State bonds have been dull and steady.

New ORLEANS. LA, Nov. 1l.-Atwood,
Violet ~ Co say:
Futures-To-day has been 4 repetition
of yesterday We opened very steady
at = 10 5 points decline, improving TO
Der of shorts covering freely, al
though Liverpool opened 6-64 lower, equiv
alent TO II points in our market, and s
penny lower on spots, with sales of only
700 bales.
AS soon, however, as this demand to take
in profits was filled there was a gradual de-
cline, and March Soda as low as $50, or
decline OF II points from last night. The
latter decline was helped by the very weak
spot market here, which has SO little sup
port as 10 make quotations very irregular.
The weakness was also added to by the
estimate of 1900 bales for this port to-
r4norrow, and later in the day indications of
4 large movement at all ports to-day, which
foots up LOCO bales against So, 600 bales last
year.
In addition to thiss the thirteen towns re-
ported by our exchange semi-weekly show
that receipts up TO last night were l2l, 600
bales against ll7,000 bales the same time
last week, and 1l1.000 for the same week
of last year, and stocks are 81 900 bales
against 215,006 bales up to Tuesday last
week and 49,, 900 bales last year. Under
ordinary circumstances a large port
movement should show to be at the ex-
pense of interior towns stock visible and
invisible, but instead of that, while port
receipts are considerably larger than last
year interior stocks aJe increasing as
compared with last year relatively more
than was the increase last week over the
corresponding week last year.
What inducement is the large movement
giving to spinners the world over to come
into our market and give relief to the
holders. which is now the support that the
market must have to give substantial tone
to it? We think this is patent to any one.
Spots closed quiet and easy. Sales, $500
bales. Quotations sc lower on low mid
