NEW YORK, October 27.-Reports of
killing frosts last night aud heavy rains
in certain portions disturbed the market
to-day after IL had opened with prices
unchanged 10 ] point lower. According
the weather bulletin there were frOsts
from Eastern Texas % the Atlantic. Fol
lowing the publication OF the weather
bulletin, the market advanced points
but outside buying power failed TO ma
terialize. and some Of the more conf
dent bear houses sold quite freely. Houses
with Liverpool and Continental connec-
lions had selling orders, and by u o'clock |
the market had returned to the closing |
figures of yesterday. little later IL |
showed n net loss Of lH2 points, but for |
the rest Of the session It was every |
body's market" Cables cut little figure |
one way or the other. There was an |
impression here that the unmatured pOr- |
ton Of the cotton crop will prove TO be |
larger than is indicated by present
claims OF frost damage The market /
was finally steady at net loss Of 2 TO
points.
