cothraa s Co.'S Cotton Letter.

by H0TllDeIl N Cids.
 New Orleans, October 7.-Sentiment in the cotton markets seems to be under going a change and we do not hear so much rampant bear talk as was in vogue a few days ago and 1t is beginning to be eontended vigorously that prices are ap- preaching if not already at a basis at which spfnners will come into the market in volume and at which the interior will refrain from offering freely The mill men have been told to wait for lower priees that the crop was large but as the price recedes we find less disposition on the part of farmers to sell, while the middlemen and shippers have been offer ing an enormous amount of cotton dis counting prices in the anticipation of heavy receipts and the consequent de- moralization of spots. which as is usual has created an oversold market and up to date spinners have bought In very small quantities, in most instances barely months supply constitutes their entire purchases. This condition should, in the near future, bring a great many into the market. Liverpool cables that a better feeling exists there today and yesterday and says think unles you decline we shall advance" The local spot market gives evidence of a greatly improved tone with more inquiry and the interior offering less freely. Consols and silver both record an advance and monetary matters present a more settled appear ance
 Dry goods, however. are very quiet with little doing The advance in futures to- day was oceasioned by short covering. A l better inquiry for and the improved tone of spots together with forecasts for cooler and unsettled weather conditions. We do not look for an immediate extended ad- vance but by reason of the conditions noted above sharp reaction may occur at any time. However, the signs begin to multiply that the shrewd investor on the long side should place himself in a po- l sition to operate at favorable moments

Baxter & Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York, October 7.--There was noth- ing doing of special importance in the weather news when the market opened. The temperatures were higher, and with little rain Liverpool was doing fairly well. Bears were, as heretofore, talking a big crop. but it is understood that talk alone does not make bales, and there is every indication that the crop will turn out as we'll as previously believed. Re- ceipts are not running so large as look ed for, and at all events we have had good decline and should now do better, especially as we may have frost at an early date. The situation in Texas con- tinues unsatisfactory and is believed much worse than generally supposed. Unless receipts pick up wonderfully the next two weeks, shorts will suffer considera- ply. Prices opened good deal higher. but soon weakened. There were signs of
