to such realization, as it has lust issued a

Cotton Letter.

New York. Dec. 9.-(Special) )-Cotton looked very weak soon after the opening this morning, declining to the lowest price yet touched, but at the decline Liverpool began to buy moderately, and some of the shorts took fright and covered, establishing a fair advance for the day. Everybody ad- mits that cotton is low enough even if the crop should be 9OO0,C00 bales. The only question is how far the enormous long hold ings of January have been lquidated. Some think that they have been reduced to such an extent that they no longer constitute the dark cloud hanging over the market that they have lately been. We do not say that we have seen bottom prices yet but it is certain that the recent heavy liquidation has greatly lessened the danger of any fur ther serious break, and made cotton safer to buy. March opened at 7.35, declined to 7.32, then advanced to 7.45, and closed at about the best of the day with the tone steady on all recessions in the price. We would rather buy than sell

Chicago, Dec. 9.-Liverpeol cables were the primary, and dull business the secondary consideration in demonstrating the course Of wheat prices today. Very early in the session ''puts' were good and throughout the day spasmodic buying against those privileges was effective in causing slight spurts, but at the close almost inside fig- ures were quotable. May wheat opened from S014 to 797sc, declined to 791sc. closing at 79lsG7SNc-1asc under yesterday Cash wheat was 11ac lower.
 Corn opened weak in recognition of sim liar feeling in wheat, but prices later held fairly steady. Bad corn weather in Me- braska was reported thus preventing prices from declining materially May corn opened at 26c, sold at 26426lsc, closing at 26-1gO Ac under yesterday. Cash corn was steady at unchanged prices.
 There was a moderate loss in oats prices, the weakness which predominated in wheat and corn having the effect of depressing the tone of this market. Trade was, on the whole, light. Occasional bursts of activity took place, however. About noon prices were progressively raided, heavy selling be- ing noted May oats closed Ae under yes- terGay. Cash oats were steady and un- changed.
