 NEW ORLEANS. OCt. 22.-Liverpool was better than looked for, the improvement being due to a natural reaction and scarcity of sell CTS Our market responded by opening points higher and notwithstanding the fair weather. heavy port and interior receipts and more favorable weeAIy weather report than expected, an advance of points additional was estab- lished on the reaction theory. Subsequently, however, the weakness of spots and realizing occasioned a break of from the top, reduc- ing the net gain on the day to only points. Our Liverpool friends cable that the decline has been too rapid, discountng the large movement. that in their opinion bottom has been reached for the present unless foreign markets should show greater weakness both spinners and exporters will enter the market soon and any demand will change the aspect of the market. From the above 1t would ap- pear as if all operators are working for a re- action. The weekly weather report, though showing that fine picking weather prevailed throughout the belt during the week. and that frost has done no material damage, was dis appointment Then the weakness of spot and anxiety of holders to sell in consequence of the good condition for the growing crop and the fact that the weather is fair in all sections, with temperatures rising and predictions for continuance of same. with large receipts all combined had a tendency to restrict az gressive buying The weather movement and spot demand will continue to govern the flu of

Chicago Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO, Oct. 22.-BulIish Argentine news and heavy liquidation in corn were. the only features in dull and apathetic market today December wheat closed a shade higher. Decem- Der corn k lower and December oats unchang- ed. Provisions closed 24M7h up.
 There was little news of European business in wheat at the outset and December wheat 7ol9 on steady cables. The trade was largely local with no early reports of exports. Con- ditions were ready, therefore. for a slump in prices when a sharp decline began in corn Following this influence, December wheat sagged off to 7ohG7oss. Primary receipts had also increased considerably, but these lower prices were soon overbalanced by renewed re- ports of drought in damage to the crops in Ar gentna Under this influence December re- gained its early loss and sold to 70Sd70A, though there was nothing like any active trade. Continental cables failed to respond to the steady a shade higher at 7oh@7o%, Local re- csipts were l76 cars; one of contract grade.

December fuctuated only A and closed steady and unchanged at 35h.
 Provisions ruled easy on a large supply of hogs and a resulting lower hog market. There was a recovery toward the close of the session by covering for shorts but the cash demand was sluggish and January pork closed 7h low CT at Sl5.02, January lard 71a down at S9 90 and January ribs 2h lower at S7.90.

R. M. Scale 6 Co.'S Cotton Letter.


 NEW ORLEANS Oct 22.-Cables from Tv- erpool today quite favorable, expressing the opinion that the heavy movement had been discounted by too rapid decline and unless American markets displayed further weakness prices abroad would show tendency toward improvement The tone on this side was steadier in consequence and free short covering was occasioned by the weekly crop report con- firming shortage of the Texas crop and indi- eating some disappointment regarding the yield in the eastern belt. This feature was supple mented by report that MT. Borden, the large New England cotton mill owner had advanced wages per cent. and fair improvement in prices resulted, though the continued heavy receipts restricted fresh speculation and there was no effort to urge the advance. Closing quotations are about points higher than yes terday.
 One part of the weekly crop report announc- ing that little or no damage had been in hicted by frost was looked upon by bears as innsuring good results from the top crop and the action of Mir. Borden in raising wages was regarded as a move to create dissension amongst other mill employees and force strike If possible in order to curtail competitive pro- duction and permit him to dispose of the large stocks of goods recently purchased to relieve the market Dry goods reports, however, are rather encouraging and indicate increased ac- tivity in that line. The heavy movement of cotton is the greatest obstacle to improvement at the moment. and if the date of killing frost Is deferred a while longer, 1t is probable that the desire to sell will increase.
