New York. Oct, 1.-The cotton market
opened steady, with prices 3G4 points
lower, later being in sympathy with
IN easier feeling in the Liverpool mar
ket. The bull crowd were also restrained
10y more favorable weather reports from
the cotton belt, full receipts
scattered selling orders from
the South and abroad, and absence of sup
port from outside investors. Following
the cell trading was very light and prices
changed but little from the opening tg-
ures. Sales of only 5000 bales spot cotton
at Liverpool, despite concessions Of 1-l6d,
was an important drawback TO extensive
new Investment business here.
Spot closed dull, with prices 1-16d low
er to the basis of 5a5 for Kidding uplands
and 5ssc for middling Gulf. Sales were
limited to 200 bales for spinners.
Futures broke sharply at the close under
active lie idation, started by estimates
Tor very heavy receipts next week and
favorable weather prospects. The bear
crowd hammered the whole list. At the
close the market was steady, having i'm
proved on a mOmentary furry OF covering.
The net loss was matter of 495 points.
Estimated receipts at the ports for the
day were 5000 bales, against 81, 100 last
week, and 1895 last year. Estimated re.
ceipts at the ports for the week were
a4ec0, against $40 059 last week, and Isl 926
last year. At Memphis 3,O12 against 2276
last year, and a Houston 22,616, gainst
u 296 last year.
