M. Scale 6 Co.'S Cotton Letter.

By Special Leased Wire.l
 NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 2e.-Lverpool report ed a barely steady tone of deliveries today at shade decline in prices and cables indicated that traders were undecided owing to the un- certainty of the bureau report. better de- mand from China and India is said to have imparted a steadier tone In Manchester. Spin ners, while having only a moderate supply of raw cotton on hand. are reported as having bought great deal recently In the South. and owing to this fact they are disposed to hold of further purchases for the present. On this side an increase in offerings of contracts re- suited from an easier tone of spots There was moderate speculative demand at hand which was partly supplied in a gradual way and some liquidation of recent purchases was noticeable in the days transactions. Closing quitations about points under the final close of Wednesday,
 The nearer approach of the bureau report additionally restricts speculation and in view of the renewed easiness of spots rather serves to urge liquidation of such contracts as were bought in anticipation of favorable results from that feature.
 The impression seems to be growing that un- lees the bureau estimates the yield under the actual out-tuSn of last year. that the mar ket will not be disposed to move in an upward direction, at least to any extent. but the Governments figures will doubtless be taken very seriously abroad. and the probable tion of foreign markets Is to be taken into consideration

Rube Ferns Is busy shooting un-
complimentary remarks through the
press at Tommy Ryan. accusing the
latter OF endeayoring to back out Of
match with him and limiting Ia toler-
ably plain language that the ex-
Syracusean Is afraid and does not
want his game, The hitch IN the pro-
posed match appears to have arisen
through certain clauses In the articles
which Ryan refused to ratify. and
Ferns obstinately insisted on retain-
ing.
Ryan Is nothing II not a shrewd
business man. and not to be side
tracked when his financial interests
are at stake Whatever his reasons
may have been for objecting to the
articles drawn up for the proposed
bout. fear Of Mr.. Ferns flying fists
had nothing to do with the matter.
The man from Kansas would be moth
ing but a chopping block for Ryan
TO practice on. and no one knows this
better than the artful Tommy hiL4-
self The Rube's recent victories over
the leaders Of the welter class have
evidently robbed him OF much dis
erection. says a Chicago paper. At the
welter-weight limit Ferns is easily
king pin OF the class but his ambi-
tion scars to a dangerous height When
he imagines himself capable Of Civ
ing away weight to a boxer Of
Ryan's high caliber There are un-
doubtedly many middle weights that
Ferns can defeat but Ryan Is not
one Of them.
At present II looks as though
George McFadden will be Ferns next
opponent. He has offered TO box the
Rube at l42 pounds. end the latter IS,
naturally. not averse to closing the
deal It promises to be sad night
for McFadden when he tries con-
illusions with the welter-weight cham
