Murphy 6 Co.'s Cotton Letter.

Murphy & Co.'S Cotton Leter.)
 New York, October 30.-So far as re- sards the frost news from the south, there was nothing of, importance as it's bearing on the early market, which open ed with slight changes. The government map showed temperatures not below 42 Early in the day. while freezing weather was reported by local officials at several stations in Georgia, in the absense of statements to the contrary the view was taken that yesterdays cold wave had caused little injury, and on the other part it was contended that it would re- ouire several days for the news to come in of the result of observations in the cold wave districts, and that more or less injury was sure to be reported later on. Pending such news the trade was cautious and more disposed to avoid short operations and beneath the sur face there was more or less uncertainty as to the Texas situation and the notion that after all that states yield may be decidedly overestimated
 Furthermore, it is to be noticed that people very bearishly inclined for some time are now modifying their views in a most pronounced fashion. An immense long interest in March and May is claim- ed The bull clique is apparently apa- thetic. Bib receipts at Houston and the expected heavy receipts at New Orleans discouraged .buyers for the time being

 Trying to Unload.
FRosTS WERE REPORTED

New York. October S0.-The cotton mar ket opened steady. with prices two points hgher to three points lower Following the call there was further decline, due to scattered selling for the long account, and an absence ot anything resembling bull support The weakness was in the face. of early news, which was regarded as generally favorable to prices. Addi- tionaI frosts had been reported over night. The Liverpool market opened un- changed, whereas a partial decline of one point had been expected. Private crop accounts also indicated deterioration in some important sections. These influences, however were regarded with indifference, there being a disposition to take the short side for turn on account of the pros poets for a large movement. This inclf- nation was encouraged as the session pro- gressed and the estimates for tomor- rows receipts at New Orleans and Hous- ton were made public. Liverpool felt the effects of the depression here, and re- sponded to the weakness. closing to point lower for futures. though spot cot ton in that market was points higher. One feature of the trading was the sell ing of January in the local market and this naturally gave rise to rumors that the leading bull interest was attempt ing to unload. Taken altogether, it was a day of sagging values, though the market closed at a partial recovery from the low point, still showing a net loss of to 6 points The sales were estimated at 200,000 bales.

Cotton Letter

c. " Lee S Col Letter to cothran & Go.
 New York, October s0.-Mareh cotton sold at s.27 this morning as compared with S28 the low point reached some time ago. This is not a good sign for a bull market. To have price lower than be- fore on light receipts, killing frosts and a settlement of the coal difficulties Is not an encouraging sign. We would say most emphaucally that the position must have in 1t the element of weakness to prevent more of an advance on such bullish factors. As we have said for some time this is the week to get the market up for during the next four weeks, we believe comparisons will operate against advancing prices. Last year receipts fell of sharply after this week. Everything points to a better movement this year and in view of 30o,Ooo bales excess over last year this will certainly operate against the market. Buyers will not rush to buy on such a showing and many will doubtless sell on the failure of the market to go up. We would only buy on substantial breaks.
