a St. Louis hospital was probably the

New York, Nov. S.--Riordan & Co say
OF cotton: Again to-day the cotton mar
ket was weak and new low records for
the year were established. Liverpool was
dlscouraging, that market declining one
and one-half siXty-fourths, and the open
ing here was to points down. Although
prices steadied a little after the opening,
there was at no time any show of strength
and values declined slowly but surely
throughout the day. Heavy receipts and
weakness in the south were the causes for
the decline. Free long liquidation was the
result. January opened at 5.6Sc, advanced
to soc, declined to 563c, and closed at
5.6ic, with the tone of the market steady.
What few bulls there are, insist that, al
though receipts are heavy, they do not in
dictate a yield to justify these prices. OPP
orators generally hold an opposite opin-
ion. We agree with the bulls
