New York, October 2h.--rhe market to- day was dull and within narrow lomits. There was general impression that bank statement would be decidedly favorable and traders bought sufficiently to ad- vance prices in first hour F to per cent. There was special strength in industrials, Colorado Fuel and Iron leading. Pressed steel issues were strong, American Cotton oil rose nearly per cent, Consolidated Gas advanced sharply. In the railroad list Texas and Wabash common were materially higher. St. Louis Southwest ern was also disposed towards strength. When the bank statement was published, a selling movement set in and prices generally reacted fractionally from the higher.

that this year we will see some increase. If the market will not go up on small receipts we are beginning to be afraid it will go down when receipts increase, at least we would advise great caution at the moment, and would buy and sell for turns rather than buy and hold at the level. There is very little trade and this at the present season is likely to cause a sagging market The big long inter- est in January cotton here remains in tact and that is as much as an adverse factor as anything else. The mar[t to- day was dull, dull in tn eextrelae, but the tone ruled steady rather than other wise.
