Theodore Price on Cotton.

New York, October 16.-The reaction in the cotton market seems to have about spent it's force today. 1t has been pre- dicted entirely upon reports that in the absence of frost the development of the top crop would add substantially to the yield. Such reports are always current at this season, and they nearly always prove misleading. My advices do not lead me to expect much from the top crop and my belief in an exceptionally short crop is fully confirmed. Receipts for the week and especially for tomorrow promise to be substantially under last year and the movement of the crop Is already commencing to indicate a short age. Exports up to last evening since September 1 are 1,O22,OS2, against 653,S4 for the corresponding period last year. Never in the history of the American cot ton trade have exports reached so large total thus early in the season. Holders of cotton have only to exercise patience in order to secure very full prices for it.

Cotton Letter.

c. W Lee & Co.'s Letter to Cothran
 6 Go.
 New York october 16-March and May cotton sold at S.s0 this morning and Jan uary at $50. The tone was feverish and sentiment very much mixed. Good weather and large receipts were offset in some measure by the settlement of the coal strike. and activity in the print cloth market. Purchases of from 100000 to 200, 900 pieces of print cloths and of- fers to buy more had some influence on sentiment With the decline short, cov- ering held the market, but the tone did not respond to the buying as heretofore. The comparative weakness in January had a depressing influence on sentiment. as no one knows how long that premium can be maintained. Buying of January longs continued, and so much cotton was offered that very little headway was made against the selling by those who bought to support the market. On a break of 40 points many were inclined to look for a reaction and considerable short covering took place on this theory. The liquidation by holders was such as to keep the market lowering around the low point of the day, and uncertainty as to whether further break or an advance was in order, as the price worked towards sac We have been against purchases of cotton for some days on the theory that good weather ana unSettled condltlOnS would break the market. We are in- clined to look for a better market around SH, unless some very unexpected devel- opments take place in January. In the event of liquidation the whole market will break. But on declines for the present cotton should be a purchase for a re-ac- tion at least. Weather Is making cotton every day, but exports are big, and the domestic demand Is likely to improve now that the coal strike is settled. In view of the liquidation development would meet with a quick response.

New Orleans Market.

New Orleans, October 16.-The market for spot cotton was decidedly weak today and the trading done was upon the basis of 1-16 to 1s below board figures. Fac tors have become rather anxious sellers, while many buyers are disposed to hold off for lower rates. Sales 7100 bales, in cluding $500 to arrive; quotations 1-16 lower
 Futures opened to points below yes terdays closing and almost immediately thereafter gained another point but the complexion of advices from Liverpool, where deliveries had moved down 2 to 3 additional (British) points, and where the opinion is generally held that unless a killing frost develops in the cotton belt within the next ten days, there will be a permanent decline in prices, was too much for the market to hold up under, and values gave way to the extent of f to points all along the line, while there was a perceptible diminution in the vol- ume of trading for the long account. The market became dull and heavy, holding in that shape to the closing hour, wheE terday's range of 1 to ? points on the several months.

FIRMNESS WAS A FACTOR

New York. October 16.-The cotton mar ket opened steady with prices to 4 points higher on demand from smaller room shorts and on some foreign pur- chsses. these buyers being influenced by the news of the coal strike settlement and the firmer ruling of the English market. Relatively light receipts at the ports and unfavorable news from Fall River in reference to the spot print cloths also exerted some influence. But 1t was soon apparent to all that the commission houses were almost destitute of buying orders and that the bear faction intended making a fresh attack upon the winter months, giving the excellent weather con- ditions as the pfompting factor. The pri- vate crop reports also were more favor able than in some time, many indicating promise of maturement of late cotton. Light frost was given on the chart for the north central belt, the dispatches from that quarter stating no harm had been done to cotton. as the formations had been limited almost entirely to the higher ground where there were few fields. Prices worked quite steadily lower during the rest of the forenoon, with liquidation quite active. Soon after mid day January sank to s.45 and May to S.2S from which there was a rally near the close on profit taking by room shorts. Wall street came to the front as a buyer of the January option in the last fifteen minutes and European demand was some thing of a feature. The south sold along conservative lines
 The market was finally steady and net 1 to 4 points lower Total sales were estimated at 250,000 bales.
 The firmness in the stock market ap- peared to be something of a factor in the late session. causing shorts to believe 1t meant immediate working of the mines.

New York, October 16.-There was a slightly better tone to the early mar ket but the tranastions were unimpor- tant Early cables were better than looked for but the government map showed an absence of anything like kill ing frost in the cotton belt; in fact the lowest was A at Augusta and Chatta- nooga. Private reports had it that while Georgia and Alabama were visited by light frosts no damage had resulted and that the crop prospects was favorable. An inducement for supporting the mar ket was found in the reappearance of Mir. Borden as an active buyer of print cloths in the New England markets. Astute operators regarded this as the prelimi-
