The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1901-09-05
Murphy a Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York, Sept 4.-The response of
Liverpool to the bureau figures of yes
terday was a decline of to points
when New York resumed business.
Opinion was mixed as to the immediate
prospect OF prices, but it was believed
that a sharp break was unwarranted'
by the bureau figures inasmuch as crop
conditions since Aug. %, up to which
date the figures were made up, have
not only improved, but have steadily
grown worse. Any such decline in
prices as we witnessed yesterday on the
bureau figures are looked on as purely
unjustified until people care to accept
government figures as infallible and
outside surroundings as unworthy of
any consideration. Guesses on crop
of 100000 at this stage are absurd,
and are no more warranted than guess
es on crop of only 1900, 900. The prob
abilities are that the market will be
oversold by enthusiastic spectators
who see an Opportunity for pushing
prices down on the bureau scare, and
we shall witness an early rally. The
foreign element are active in spreading
reports of the sickly condition of Euro
pean trade with a view of breaking the
market while it is known that actual
situation abroad while far from bril-
liant is just as far from gloomy. There
was liberal continental selling IN the
Liverpool market to-day. New York
2 TO points lower in sympathy with
Liverpool. The decline was regarded as
sufficient under existing circumstances
and the activity of some Southern cor
respondents in wiring of improved con-
ditions, and exaggerated damage re-
ports had the effect of merely exciting
suspicion. Generally speaking a re-
sumption of the higher plane of values
was regarded as likely. The chances
are that we shall witness temporary
lull in speculation. Prices recovered at
ter the opening. but there was not
much business. Sellers were apparent
ly unwilling to oppose fresh advance.
Pert receipts 10000 against $4,000 last
year Rain fell at several points in Tex
as including Galveston, San Antonio.
