Murphy & Co.'S Qnc) Cotton Letter
 [By Priynte Wire

NEW YORK. Sept. le.-LverpooI made a full response to our advance of yesterday and prices in the local market further improved at the opening There was no news early in the day going to show any such cool weather forecasted yesterday, nevertheless the disposition was to support the market despite the fact that receipts are still heavy and that have already witnessed a substantial adv ance, more so that many looked for. New
 ertheess further improvement in values is relied upon until killing frost is beyond ques- tion before Nov. list. which it is generally be-
 leved Is not probable. The weekly Liverpool
 report today shows decline in stocks the past week of 35. 900 bales. leaving the stocks in that market today 3o5.o 900. against 267,- 900 last year, dangerously small figure when we consider the question of consumption and the possibility of the yield falling short of it by half a million bales more. Liberal buying of January by the bull pool was the feature at the first hour and sellers generally shy. Greek firms were free sellers of March and May and a good deal of realizing took place during the forenoon despite that which bulls did not relax their grip except in weak quarters. Port receipts were esti- mated at 39 900 against 20 900 last year
 Cables were steady, 8h94 points advance.

NEW ORLEANS. Sept. Ie.-LiverpooI did nothing today except to follow the path pur- sued with such determination at the present time by the majority of speculative traders Deliveries advanced ASA. but spots were unchanged with sales of 1000 bales Trading on this side was divided between purchases for speculative account and sales principally by prominent spot houses presumably as hedges against interior accumulations. In the early part of the session demand was rather brisk. but towards the closing hour. some re- alizing sales, influenced by bearish nature of weekly statistics, drove prices back several points. Closing quotations are 495 points lower than yesterda-. The weekly figures to- day indicate that the crop is moving with un- usual rapidity which may be attributed to various causes. viz: desire to secure prevail ing prices. confirmation of damage by drought or an active demand for actual cotton for prompt shipment and 1t would be interesting to know which of these causes is operating at the present time. However, since foreigners have shown a reluctance to believe in crop complaintsit 1t is possible that Liverpool to- morrow will take adverse view of the large movement At any rate Saturday is usually characterized by a measure of liquidation and 1t would not be surprising if some in dulged in tomorrow

The Crop News of Decidedly a Bull ish Tendency-Severe Reaction Under Taking of Profits
 Late in Day.

NEW YORK, Sept Ie.-The cotton market opened firm with prices 1 point lower to 3 points higher and then worked upward very rapidly on active demand from the shorts and strong Wall Street buying The latter did not cease until January had reached S.36. at which level profit taking set in on a large 'cale and carried the whole list on 5 points or more. The commission houses were free buyers on the early rise, much of this cotton being taken to replace staple sold on the early decline of yesterday. when the trade as whole trimmed for a drop of 20 points "on the reaction theory" Todays crop news was of decided bullsh tenor and the reports from spot cotton markets were indicative of hardening views on the part of holders The Liverpool cables were about as expected, but the private reports from Europe were pessi- misttc as a rule. Receipts were very large, but had been quite generally discounted. Late in the day the market suffered a severe action under the furry of profit taking, start ed by bearish weekend statements from Su- pertntendent King and Colonel Hester The market closed barely steady and net 25 points lower. after at one time having been net 6G9 points higher. Total sales were esti- mated at 45o. 900 bales. The weather reports from the South indicated rather cool but otherwise favorable conditions
