unfhvornbIc Factors Discounted.

NhtuNoruDic FACTORS DtsCOuntcu.
New York advces to y. W. Hunter e.
CO. were as follows.
A rather better feellng has been appar-
emit In tho cotton market today Prices at
tho opening received n slight stimulus
from the favorable Liverpool advices re-
porting a stead!er undcrtone at an adj
vance in prices. After the opening Il
slight decline was experienced. the early
advance being lost on attempts of the
bears TO bring about a fresh decline, but
prices Soon recovered to the estent of 5lt6
mand and a disposition on tho part of
some OF the larger bears to cover out
standing contracts.
Apparently the market has. for the
present at le,st, discounted the unfavor-
able factors In the situation and owing
10 the fnct that There Is no extensive
weak lorg Interest outstanding as n mem
acc 10 prices, the market liz In a position
TO recover sharply shotld any favorable
developments come to .,ht. fhc Interior
movement Is again moderate and this
iact IS hot wthodt effect In fact, the
local trade has shown rather snore dispo-
sluon to buy than sell rhe yellow fever
Is also looked upon MS bullish influence
In view OF the fact that 1t Is believed
both here and IN Liverpool that Il may
have the effect OF still further checking
me movement of the crop.
Whde Una pressure TO sell has de-
creased, tho speculative dcrlanl Is also
limited. and tho market IL therefore IN
nosltton To respond quickly to any Increase
IN the orders on ether side.

Office Of The Post,

Houston Thursday. September 30.
Tho serene confidence OF the bears has
not yet been disturbed, although they find
some difficulty In keeping December below
6 cents In New Orleans Twice this week
the market has struck $685. but each time
buying orders soon Fitted the December
option to &C. and above. There Is grow
Ing Impression that nothing in trade nor
crop conditions justifles n lower price for
cotton than IL now prevailing, although
tho bears seem certain that the market
viii gradually drift to the bass Of 5isc
for December in New Orleans.
Today there was a steadier tone to specu-
lative values and prices we're or points
up nit ono time though gradually losing
about all tho gain. New York closed 2
points higher than yesterday; New Or
leans was unchanged on the near months
and tGl2 points lower for the distant POSI-
lions. Liverpool showed a gain OF Ia-6id
nj the close. The Southern spot markets
we're ullet and unchanged, with Light
sales recorded,
The decrease in receipts, due TO quaran-
time restrictions In Louisiana and Texas,
IL beginning to attract attention, though
having very little effect upon the market
MS yet. Houston expects 1900 to $500 bales
tomorrow. against li,0G6 on the same day
last year. The estimate ut New Orleans
IS for 1000 to 5000, against 1851. This Is a
big falling of, but bears contend that the
Accommodations In the country will be all
tho greater and that Secretary Testers
report tomorrow will show nearly 100000
bales brought into sight for the week.
