COTTON FUTURES.

New York, Oct. 1S.-The cotton mar
ket opened easy at loss of 106 points.
Seillng increased the decline to 507
points. Later there was a rally of
to points, with the market finally
quiet and steady at unchanged prices
TO a decline of points. The early
weakness was the result of a combl-
nation of adverse influences, including
a Liverpool decline of cor points, gem
orally favorable weather reports from
the cotton belt indications of large re-
celpts, the still unsettled strike in the
coal regions, weakness in the stock
market and tightness in money. The
rally followed frost predictions for the
Western belt, a disposition to make
lighter estimates on receipts for to-
morrow, and numerous reports to the
erect that the coal strike was at last
IN fair way for a speedy settlement.
The enormous exports of late were also
a FACTOR in the influences leading to
the purchase of cotton in the after
noon. The exports in the six weeks of
this Season foot up 973,601 bales, this
being 1868 in excess of last year,
with consolidated stocks now 1925
bales less than last years after a crop
movement over 100000 bales greater
than last years. Total sales of cotton
were estimated at 300 900 bales.

While light frost may materialize to-

Murphy & Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New York, Oct. 13.-Cotton was weak
and lower this morning. Gables were
down in response to our weakness of
Saturday. Local bulls sold in a small
way, being scared by mild weather
over Sunday and to-day, although the
temperature in Northwest Texas was
down A. and freezing weather pre-
vailed in Kansas. The rainfall was
quite moderate. but an unfavorable
impression was produced by private
Texas dispatches, announcing a Won
derful improvement of the crop last
week as a result Of the mild weather.
While private cables regarded the
financial situation as unhealthy, never
theless there remained in many quar-
ters a feeling of confidence in a short
crop, and higher prices as soon as the
outside surroundings become healthier,
since the reports of poor crops were 81

The Savannah morning news., 1902-10-14

At one period before noon there were
ragged declines indicated of all the
way from / to IL points from Satur-
days level, many of the leading specu-
lative stocks having lost from to S
points in the two hours of trading. The
sentiment in the street seemed mixed
before the opening between the con-
tending influences of the reports that
settlement of the coal strike had been
arranged and the admonition contained
in the Saturday bank statement that
there must be further contractions of
loans placed in the stock market. The
latter influence swept away all other
considerations, and with the exception
of a momentary rally after the open
ing due to the taking of bear profits by
Saturdays short sellers, the market
pursued a steady downward course un-
der a continuous stream of liquida-
ton.
1t was evident that further selling
out on the part of some of the large
speculative pools was going on, pre-
sunably under pressure Of the demand
from money lenders for repayment of
hans. The Gould Southwesterns and
some of the stocks in which the So
called Western contingent have oper-
ated largely were notably affected. The
recent tendency of high priced invest
an extraordinary level, to break vio-
lently on small sales, continued in evil
dence in the cases Of American Ex-
press, United States Express, Lacka-
wanna, Delaware and Hudson, Great
Northern preferred, General Electric
and similar stocks. When the liqui-
dalton first showed signs of decreasing,
the bears caused a sharp rally by
covering of shorts, after which the
market lay sluggish and neglected for
an hour. The speculative sentiment
then yielded to the Influence Of the
hopeful feeling that the industrious
consultings and activities of the finan-
cial and operating powers Of the great
anthracite companies would lead to
substantial results in the settlement Of
the coal strike. Any authoritative adj
mission of a change In the condition of
deadlock was impossible to obtain and
the unvarylng assertion on the part OF
the operators dealt only with the pos

Philadelphia, Oct. 1O.-Weekly report
received by George H. McFadden &
Bro. through cable of Messrs. F. C.
Baines & Co.. Alexandria, Egypt, Oct.
10, 1902: THE stock left for sale is
not large, as holders are cautious. Not
withstanding the weakness of Ameri-
can prices here as a whole were sus-
tanned, especially for spot cotton, which
did not follow the drop of contracts.
The weeks receipts are $50, 900 cantars.
The demand from all parts continues
good, especially from England, and we
have no reason to change our opinion
about the soundness of the position.
Superior qualities in good demand at

Contracts have been irregular, fiuc-

New York, Oct. 13-Our market
opened with sales of January at
S.63QS.64c, and after selling at $500
S.6Oc, ruled at S.6Sc at l p. m. After
the sharp break of Saturday the de-
cline in Liverpool led the trade to ex-
pect reaction abroad tomorrow. This
belief led to large local buying on the
belief they would not decline further
for at least the immediate future, until
more was known of the weather condi-
lions for the next two weeks There
was a general tendency to increase
crop estimates, but not the slightest
intention to anticipate a further de-
cline in prices. The market has grown
accustomed to looking for sharp reac-
lions from the present basis of values
and it will continue to act on that
theory until after we have passed the
time for frost. Outside buying can
not be expected until the financial po-
s1tion becomes less strained, then it
will depend on crop ideas We need

The cotton market closed without

closjng at about the top. Money was
from to IS per cent, with every in
a,ca+ion that an adjustment that will
bring conditions in the money market
hook to their normal state is still a
matter for the future. The reports
from New York were to the effect that
several important speculative pools are
still unloading and that until their
holdings are largely taken by the pub
lie the market may continue heavy.
In the cotton market hesitation is
being caused by the near approach of
the time for important crop statements
from experts who have previously COM
handed attention from the trade. Until
thew give out their statements traders
will be backward about committing
themselves on the possibility of crop

feasibility of frost also causes uneasi-
