New York. Oct 22-The cotton market
opened steady, with prices 1Q2 points high
er but exhibited very little animation
early in tie session, with scarcely a point
hletuation in quotations. The feature OF
news was Che statement that killing fr'Nts
had occurred last night in nearly every
stale IN the cotton belt, with the tempera-
a n al lob bfe tho IN a
otRfees over freezing point As this con-
Wuon has been quite generally discounted,
sentiment was affected very little by the
bulish change
Receipts continued to be the gauge used
py The trade in sizing up the crop. The
cniet support of the future markets here
"ud abroad is still the demand for spot
CO.. on at all points. To-days Liverpool
ket.
Later in the afternoon the market i'm
proved materially on a burst of covering
ny tnose shorts, fearing possible sensa-
uonal developments in the cotton belt or
abroad over Sunday. During the last few
minutes the feeling was mixed, with the
'se barely steady at unchanged prices
70 point higher. Estimated receipts at
,"e ports to-day. 5000 bales, against 81 1873
