New York, Nov. 1O-Evening Posts London financial cablegram:
 The speech;s at the lord mayors ban quet last night had good effect on stocks generally and all the markets were strong today, except Kaffirs. Amer jeans are steadily rising. There was a fair but cautious demand for them here today and the close was practically alt the best with Union Pacific as the fea- ture of strength.
 Gold was in strong demand; f400000 in eagles was sold by the Bank of England today, I understand, for the continent, but no one is quite sure. The Indian goYernme mt announces a. further sus- pension of weekly drawings for at least four weeks.
 Money Is tighter. Probably nearly f1,- O00,000 has been borrowed from the bank, thus confirming by formsr cables that the market would be more or less in the banks hands till Christmas.
 The Paris bourse was firm. There were large dealings in Tinto copper mine.
 The Berlin market was weak.

Cotton Letter:

New York, Nov. 1o.-The snap shown by the cotton market yesterday after noon disappeared today. An. advance of two-siXty-fourths in Liverpool this morning was regarded as quite favorable and the opening flere was 2 to points higher. The bears appeared to have gaired fresh courage over night and inn lnedfately began to sell again the stun that they had covered yesterday. Prices yielded at once, and until shortly before the close the undertone was decidedly soft; 1eteipts were quite full and the outside business was small. Ths bureau report was delayed until Friday noon, owing to lateness of returns from impor- 4ant sections. In the last fiftean minutes the execution of some large local and New Orleans buying orders turned the market firm again. January opsned at 5.67, advanced to 5.69 decliEed to 5.62
 rallied to 56S and closed at 5.65 to 5.66, with the tone Of the market steady. The feeling is still bsarish, but less coni1- dently so. RIORDAN & CO'

Dry Goods

New York, Nov. 10-Evidences of con- tinu:d dullreSs in the dry goods mar het continues. Concessions are being made constantly in nearly ali lines of cotton textile fabrics. These reductions show "a desire on the part of both first and second hard dsalr5 to effect move- n1ent in stiocks at as ehrly date as pos sible. Tine weather conditions are the plinDary cause of depression on the mar ket and tlhe reduction is so compI lte that a recovery is possible. It is noted that the depression is in mems wear and dress goods to lno small degree.
 The requ..ts for heavy goods for next year are still withheld pending a settle ment of the weather and price problems. dn staple cottons the business passing has bean of very light proportions. The export demand is still quite 1ighlt and llhere are in fact no really reassurlng features in the market. Prirt cloths continue unpopular at 5-16c.
