 New York. November 1.-The week closed with an unsettled feeling in cot ton and some disposition to adopt bear ish views.
 The absence of decisive advices tending to show that the killing frost during the week had failed to hurt cotton, was a disappointment. Correspondents in the south were slow In reporting or presumed to be indifferent as to the question of damage and in no direction was there any features which called for active sup port beyond the fact that the market has been going down and that a rally was in order. Even in circles where mod crate crop views are entertained and a small crop is regarded as certain people rather feel that speculation cannot easily be revived except at much lower level of prices, regardless of intrinsic value since the long interest is extensive and the short interest not broad enough to warrant hope of relief from that quarter The apathy of spinners here and abroad Is again sustaining present value hence many see no chance of breaking the dead lock except by forcing prices down to a point where they will prove more tenn pering. The weather map was fair over the entire south and the temperature early in the day quite mild at no point falling below 4Sc. Port receipts 45,00O vs 460O0. Prices opened a shade lower and showed slight changes all day.
 
 Cotton Letter
 c. W. Lee & Co.'S Letter to H. D. Goth ran & Go.
 There are several things about the cot ton market that require thought. Bulls, or those looking for higher prices may be able to explain them satisfactory. To us they are rather omnibus and we are frank to say signs of the times are not such as to give encouragement to buyers. In the first place every firm in the market having connections with the south are selling or has been asked to sell cotton delivery in December or Jan uary One broker told us this morning that he had been asked to sell 10000 bales of January cotton, and he made the stip- ulation that cotton must be here by Ian uary 10 Yesterday one of the most con- servative traders in the New York cot ton exchange sold 5000 bales against cot ton offered him in the south. Another reported freight room engaged for 1000o bales and as soon as things were ready the cotton would be sold here. These are few of the selling orders that have come under our personal observation. The action of the market, the price of South ern markets all indicate this sort of thing is going on on large scale In the second place we have had several very bullish factors in the small receipts for the killing frosts etc, and in the face of them the market Is now lower than a month ago. In the third place. the market grows duller and duller every day. The January premium and accli-

A New Life at Yankee.

The Lombard mill which was closed
down for nearly six months is in now in
full operation. The new owners, the
Yankee Consolidated Mining, Milling and
Tunnel company, started the same last
Saturday. The first clean up is entirely
satisfactory and quite nice retort was
obtained from the several days run.
The MILL has never been in as good a
shape as now, and fully IS per cent of the
value of the ores are saved. Capt. Henry
1. Seaman, the president of the company
moved to the quarters near the mill and
is supervising in person all the workings
of the company.
The Lombard properties now belonging
to the company are being thoroughly ex-
plored and fine streak of high grade
smelling ore was discovered in the lower
Lombard tunnel. In a short time the
property will be one of the bonanza
mines of Clear Greek county, and prom

their labor.
