NEW ORLEANS COTTON FUTURES.
New Orleans, Oct. 17-Cotton futures
III. a. ID. Beer. Gotten Letter.

New Orleans, Oct. 17.-Advices from
Liverpool were disappointing, but our
market nevertheless only opened 4 to
lower, declined 3 additional on the
large receipts and clear weather
throughout the belt. with tempera-
lures rising combined with the official
prediction that fair and pleasant
weather will continue over the South
west during the next thirty-six hours.
Fresh buying and covering of shorts
caused an improvement of 6 later.
but a slightly easier feeling prevailed
near the close, making the net loss
to points on the day. Spots were de-
cidedly easier and even though con-
cessions were made to effect transact
lions no eagerness was shown by eX-
porters to buy freely. Receipts are on
the increase, and holders are anxious
to dispose of their accumulations. The
weather is favorable for the growing
crop and picking. Still the unsatis
factory textile trade conditions exist
ing in Europe restricts the volume OF
business. Sentiment is bullish and
values therefore respond more to ia
vorable influence, but the hedging of
spots supply the contracts daily taken
by purchases. 1t will be necessary to
attract active speculation to the ar
ticle to offset this feature, otherwise
it is questionable whether present
values can be maintained. The market,
however. will for the moment be gov
erned by receipts, weather, and the
demand for spots.

THE RICE MARKET.

The week has been marked by deep
ening interest; buyers taking hold in
much more liberal way than at any
time since the opening of the crop.
The chief patronage, as usual, falls
upon medium grades, and outside of
such, in about equal proportion for the
extremes of the market. Foreign con-
tnues to sell but in much more Inn
tied way, as Domestic Japan has now
almost altogether supplanted that sort
in the imported. There is still lin
gering hope with some that recession
may occur, and these purchase only
against early requirements, but larger
buyers appear to be satisfied that ma
terially lower prices are out of ques-
ton current year.
Three prominent factors. heretofore
alluded to, contribute to present
strength and render advance, among
the things possible: First. scanty sup
ply and high cost of potatoes; second,
in corn; third, improved financial con-
dition of Porto Rico, whereby the ISL
anders have resumed their favorite
diet of rice. The sum total of this
trinity is likely to cause a doubling,
IL not trebling of demand. To meet
this there is an increased crop, but
at the most extravagant estimate, such
cannot exceed 5000, 900 sacks, ana the
majority opinion inclines to the belief
that the outcome will not be over that
of last year. The acreage should have
yielded more, but the drought and fail
ure of irrigating plants to furnish re-
CURED water supply reduced the yield
in many localities. to such an extent
as to largely counterbalance the extern
sion in newer fields.
Advices from the South note further
enlargement of demand at all milling
centers. Receipts are coming forward
freely and now closely approximate
those of last year. The supply, how
ever. barely keeps pace with the de-
mand, and under the sharp strife be-
tween the mills to obtain their run,
prices for rough-and per consequence
cleaned-are firmly maintained.
Gables and correspondence from
abroad note lively conditions in all
styles and hardening prices on best Sc
lections.

COTTON FUTURES.
The Market Closes steady 2ae Points
Lower.

ne Market closes STEADY &u0 POINTS
Lower.
New York. Oct. 17,--Cotton futures
opened steady with prices / to points
lower in sympathy with weak cables
and continued to ease off pretty much
all the forenoon on continued selling by
discouraged longs. active selling by
local export houses as hedges against
large spot holdings in the South, and
confident pressure from the bear side.
The bulk of these offerings were alb
sorbed by commission houses who
were we'll supplied with limited
orders" to buy on all declines. Prices
were weak toward midday with Janu-
airy off to 500 and May to 1872. Slightly
warmer weather in the belt, with priv
ate predictions for increased receipts
helped to undermine bull confidence.
But Immediately following midday
rumors of an enornuos spot demand
South at firm prices and smaller esti
mates for to-morrow'S receipts changed
the whole temper of the market. Gov
ering set in on a large scale and be-
fore p. m. it was apparent to all that
the room had fully liquidated it's long
cotton and had sold for short account
in the forenoon break. Commission
houses became active supporters of the
winter months and spot houses covered
their short sales made in January hav-
ing sold large lines of cotton to New
