COTTON MARKET
 STEADY IN TONE Prices Up 12 to l9 Points on
 Liverpool Advices. TRADERS WERE CAUTIOUS Following Call ths Market Became Qnieter and Prices Ran Of, the
 Closing Being 9 to ls
 Points Higher

New York, Sept. 22.-The cotton market opened steady in tone, with prices F to 19 points higher on active general buying, in which influential Liverpool houses figured as leaders. During the fore part of the Ses- slon the feeling was firm and prices were tolerably well sustained by continued for elSn support and covering by shorts The public operated in an indifferent manner TOT the most part, giving attention to the winding up of accounts preparatory to a new start next week.
 The strength on the call was entirely due to an unexpected bull development in the Livrpool market. Both departments there reported pronounced improvement and closed with sentiment still optimistic in the extreme. The reappearance of bull ideas abroad was privately reported due to the flood news of Texas and other portions of the western belt and to fears of manipu- lation in the New Orleans market Predic- uons for abnormal receipts at interior towns and ports next week, notably at Galveston, led traders on the local ex- change to proceed with great caution. Crop news from the eastern belt was rather bet ter, but not sufficiently so to specially fig ure as an influence. Following the call the market became quieter and prices ran off from the opening level.
 The market for futures closed quiet and steady, with prices to 12 points net higher.
 New York, Sept. 22.-Cotton quiet; mid ding 105sc gross receipts 2OO7, stock 22,S25.
 Total today and consolidated: Net re- ceiptS 33,399 bales, exports to France 950 to the continent 6i50.

Cotton Letter

(OttOn Lettpr
 Fairchild & Hobsons Cotton Letter to H.
 D. Cothran & Co.,
 New Orleans, Sept. g. - The Liverpool market failed to respond to our weakness of yesterday, and notwithstanding the Chronicles report was very beariss, the close there showed a rise of 3-16 on spots and 4-64 on contracts This strength was mainly brought about by reports of very serious rains in northern and central Texas, where a continuance of wet weather will do irreparable damage. . Our market opened F points up, and has ruled dull and steady all day, the close showing a net rise for the day of II point6. New Orleans expects Monday 15,000 bales, against 13575 last year and Il, ,22S the year before; Houston 1000, against 14,S7O last year and 223S3 the year before.
 New Orleans receipts will likely show excessive, as she is getting considerable cotton that last season went to Galveston.

New York, September 22.-The Commer- cial-Adyertser's London financial cable gram says:
 The markets here were absolutely stag nant today There was no news and no business American shares dropped, but their weakness seemed to be due solely to the utter lack of support.
 Copper shares were irregular. Money rates were very still, closing at 3A per cent for call loans 3A per cent. for time loans, and discounts were 4 per cent.
