cothraa C Co.'S Cotton Letter.

By C. W.sLee & Co.,.
 New York, October 19.-The upward movement in cotton received a setback to- day upon realizing induced by disappoint- ing Liverpool cables and by rather de- pressed sentiment as to the general indus. trial outlook. The Pennsylvania,s decis- ion to postpone protected improvements to the extent of $100O0,000 led indirectly to bear arguments and further hestancy manifest in spinners buying and not even reports of general light frosts throughout the cotton belt could stay the market. Trading was feverish at the opening but prices steadied somewhat before noon, after a net decline of points in October and November and from II to 13 in the balance of the list. The port receipts were chiefly factors in the near months, while heavy selling in January and March forced the decline in futures. Liverpool closed quiet 3 to 1 down after opening barely steady with spots 10 lower at 5S6. foday's port receipts were estimated at 50,oOO bales as against 496l6 last week and 31.7l9 year ago. The general conclusion of crop discussions however. is an esti- mate much below that of q month ago and while it is altogether probable that the betterments in spinners demand noted last week with the advance in prices. still considerable, will bring about heavier port receipts in the coming few days. There have been no domestic develop ments since Saturday to make purchases on all important reactions less attractive than they were throughout last week.

Forecast Was for Fair and Warmer Weather and With Receipts Look ing Heavier There Was Heavy
 Realizing-cIose Was Low.

New York, October 19.-The cotton mar ket opened steady at an advance of To points on the three near positions. while the later months were unchanged to points lower. The advances were due to covering on frost news, while the de- clines were in sympathy with lower cables than expected. The frost also proved rather disappointing to the bulls, as kill- ing frost was reported from only one section, Montgomery. and while light frosts were more or less general over the eastern and central belts, they were not considered likely to work any material injury to cotton. In addition to this, sthe forecast was for fair and warmer weather and with the receipts looking heavier again there was heavy realizing right af- ter the opening started prices downward Later the selling was accelerated by re- ports of financial difficulties among prom inent trust companies by reports of finan- cial difficulties among prominent trust companies at Baltimore. which were thought to accentuate the generally un- settled and unsatisfactory condition of affairs in financial and commercial af- fairs and Wall street around midday turned very heavy seller.
 October closing at 9.51 on Saturday dropped to 9>SS; December reached 9.45. January 9.45, and March 949. The market was finally easy under general selling, and closed at practically the lowest of the session or at a net loss of 19 to 22 points. Sales were estimated at 5O0,000 bales. The decline in the afternoon was promoted by the easier ruling of the southern spot markets, which were gen. erally unchanged to isc lower, while the estimates for tomorrow at the leading points ran heavy.
