= New York Sept 23s--The feature of to-
| days market for cotton futures was the
establishing of a new low record for the
| October delivery, this option selling down
| to 5.1Sc, points under the lowest price
| ever before known. At no time, however,
did The market show pronounced weak
ness, the low level of values tending to
check aggressiveness on the part of the
bears
To-day's aggregate business represented
a very small proportion of trades for the
account of outside investors. The market
| opened quite steady in Tone but with
| prices 16I2 points lower then slowly sag
ged to the lowest figures of the day,
loss of 4d6 points as compared with last
! nights final figures. The representatives
| of a prominent commission house were
| conspicuous as sellers of a large block of
cotton, which had been held all through
| the recent decline and the steadneSs of
! the market under this pressure was much
commented on. Even the scalping ele-
ment exhibited great reluctance to take
| the bear side. The future list closed
steady at a net loss of 4d6 points.
Among the depressing influences of the
session were very encouraging reports
from nearly all localities of the western
and central sections of the cotton belt,
and Indications that the days port and
interior receipts would far exceed eXpecta-
tons Dispatches from the larger spot
cotton markets in the South stated in eff
feet that buyers were slow to take hold,
despite further concessions, and that Of
ferings were becoming burdensome.
