tons of diminished receipts at the ports

cables, conditions at Manchester are
steadily improving and continental spin

New York, Nov. H-Riordan & Co say
of cotton to-day: Large spot sales and
higher prices in Liverpool together with
killing frost in many sections of the south,
were not sufficient to sustain the cotton
market to-day. Liverpool started off well,
advancing two and one-half sixty-fourths,
but most of this was lost later.
THE opening here was to points
higher, January selling on the first call
at 5.S0c. Every one was apparently plen-
tifully supplied with selling orders at the
advance, and the opening figures were the
best of the day. AS soon as the market
started downward, Liverpool and New
Orleans sent heavy selling orders here,
and the decline was quite rapid. January
broke to 5.71c. The pressure to sell then
became exhausted and during the remain
der of the session the trading was limited
and dull. January rallied to 5.73c, declined
again, and closed at $40 to 5.71c, with the
tone of the market barely steady. Re
ceipts were of course heavy. The break
to-day has disheartened the bulls again,
and the snap seems to be gone out of the
market"

the dry goods market. Even wooden goods
are assuming dizziness, sales of next years
goods being delayed both in mems wear
fabrics and IN dress goods; this is reflected
in other lines and in the wool market and
a general stagnation results, which, just
al this season and under the present con-
ditions, is considered somewhat unusual.
and to hold little inducement for marked
effort toward the increase of trade. job
bers seem to be buying very slowly. In
staple cOttons the demand is still re-
strained, print cloths continuing to sell
very slowly in odd lines. In prints the
market continues slow and without any
change.
