Hunter & Co.'s Cotton Letter.

r. W. Hunter G. Co. say OF todays cotton
market: Sundays Savannah storm brought
traders down feeling rather bulish, and
when they saw Liverpool they were con-
vjuced that the bull turn had como at last,
and had come good and strong. The advance
In futures was very good. but the market
looked bigger and better than 1t has in a
lons while in fact, better than on any other
dag this season. Spots were firm and the
excellent business OF 10 600 bales was roport-
ed Guesses on our opening ran from 3 to 10
ptsrts up, and when the figures came In
showing New York up and New Orleans 3
up 1t was generally felt that this was mot
enough, and there was sharp buying for the
iirs' hour. which carried prices up points
from the lowest figures soon after the Open
Ing The weather map showed perfect weather
all over the belt and receipts came in
heavy, both at the ports and interior towns
Early buyers turned sellers on the weather
aut RI ccipts, and there was some short SELL
ing. but not enough to hurt the market Of
tcrlngs were wei taken care Of and the close
was points higher than Saturday. but 8
points down from the best of the day. Tho
Inv 'ediate future OF the market will DEPEND
upon Liverpool. and II that market keeps ID
tonuroW ANYTHING as good as today the
CHI ntcS are that We will have a nice IN turn
right away, and that purchases can safely DO
MADE In expectation of immediate profits of
nom 10 to 80 points. The failure of our mar
kets &c decline today on the weather man
and heavy receipts and knowledge that tho
storm had not damaged cotton, is evidence
thal traders have become cautious and that
no matter how boarish tho news. thre d.
no. care TO so short much cotton at present
low prices. SO far Texas is concerned.
,h,r' is no doubt but that big crop has
oteh MADE and bad weather would only dam
AZ TIM cotton and lower the grade 1t would
no, Gun short the crop that has already been
made but the crop In the Atlantic States is
vei| uncertain and will depend uron the
nnxt uss
poets favoring much smaller yield than
last year.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKETS.
Trading Mas verv Dull and Interest
Was Lacking.
ALL THE STATISTICS WERE BEARlsH.
visiblc supply of wheat showed an
Increase of Nearly Two Million
BushcIs-Other Markets Dull.

Chicago October 3.--wheat today success
fully contended against one Of the most for
mtdable arrays OF bear statistics that has
been posted for some time. Heavy worlds
shipments, large increase on passage, heavy
primary receipts and visible supply increase
all worked against the price, but covering by
shorts and some Eastern buying orders were
sufficient to cause the market to recover to q
point slightly above Saturdays final figures.
December closed u higher. Corn. oats and
provisions were very dull and changed but
little.
a decline OF nc marked the opening trades
IN wheat. December starting at 6lh, compared
with Saturday closing price of 62162b. This
slight break was soon followed by furthr
break to 6lssG6l2., when for an hour or more
the market kept within &c range. The news
usually affecting the market was extraordi-
narily bearish and that prices did not decline
further was probably due to the almost utter
lack OF interest aiaplayed By lraaers. the pit
at times being duller even than Saturday,
when half oil the brokers were absent.
worlds shipments OF wheat and flour were
very heavy, amounting to S.396,V0O bushes.
The quantity on ocean passage Increased !,

Il year ago Liverpool was 5sussd lower and
l>ondon reported a poor demand for foreign
wheat at I'd decline.

and Duluth for two days were IiS cars. To
add to the already heavy burden of the buiis
tho visible supply showed an ircrcase of l.Joj.-

Cnrsiii & Richardson's Circular.

Cargill X Richardson OF houston say.
Considerable animation was developed In
our cotton markets this morning. simply be
cause Liverpool was better than expected.
ami spot sales for the first time this season
reached 5000 bales. For everything that
happens there is cause. Deliveries there
were better because the market has been
ovcrsold and this was one OF the covering
days. and the spot sales were large because
that market is now getting some of our new
cotton, and spinners who have nothing but
remnants of last years crop on hand, want
some new cotton to mix for spinning 1t is
the natural order AT this time to see this,
anc, although great many were deluded into
tho idea that this report of large sales was
the beginning OF a better spot demand. our
said that the general demand from EUROPE,
being so rldiculously low that buyers turned
them down without answering. In disgust.
New records at interior towns are being
mrdc daily in receipts. and this is not con-
fined to any particular section but covers
nearly the entire State OF Texas. while East
port receipts are as a rule well ahead of last
year. Tho Texas weather over Sunday was
perfect, and todays advices show clear and
warm. East. some rain was reported in the
Central Atlantics, but the valley was clear
ine. The markets were reasonably quiet,
with all efforts turned to a brokers' one-point
scalp. The heavy estimates al Houston and
New Orleans gave prices monetary weaa
