LITTLE CHANGE IN COTTON
Futures One or Two Points Higher
at New York.
HOUSTON SPOT PRICES ARE LOWER
A Decline Of One-sixteenth for All
Grades-The Movement IL ouite
Heavy-Notes.


Houston, Monday, October 5
Futures were down to the lowest point
| Of the season once or twice today, but the
closing at New York was 1 or points
| higher than Saturday. New Orleans was
4 POINTS UP on November, point up on
December and unchanged on other posi-
tons. Liverpool futures were only
h-6fd lower. but spots were reduced 1-32d
G1-l6d. New York and Houston reduced
spots 1-16c, and doubtless an other Ameri-
can markets were at least 1-l6c lower to
sell.
Tho speculative markets exhibited very
little strength today. and at times were
quite weak There is considerable In
vestnent buying of cotton at present
prices but 1t is still doubtful whether
these purchases will be sufficient to sus-
tain the market In the face OF the ad-
verse conditions. The movement Is quite
heavy in all parts of the South despite
the supposed interference with marketing
by quarantine regulations in some sec-
tions. Port receipts today were 1900
bales behind the same date in 1894, how
ever. and the bulls consider that the
movement should run ahead of that year
In order to Justify the low prices now
"
1T Is genarally believed than the end Of
October Will show S,OOo,0 900 bales of cotton
brought into sight. This will be 1853 900
less than for the same time last year, but
$4,000 more than in 1894. Whether 1000. 900
bales will come forward after the first of
November is disputed question, and is
one upon which the future of the MARKET
VIII depend to a great extent. Only once
in the country'e history has that amount
been marketed in the last ten months of
the season. The bears are counting upon
such movement thds year. ard some
predict that 1t viii run considerably ahead
OF the 1S94-95 season.
At today's Session New York futures
opened steady, with $50 bid for January
The price fell to 594, then advanced to
&C, fell back to sos, burt again touched a.
Just before the closing.
In New Orleans January sold at SGT for
the highest and 5.62 lowest, closing with
6.65 bid.
