Baxter 6 Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York, October H.-There was a good deal of surprise this morning on re- ceipt of very fine cables, the market In Liverpool showing a gain of 12 points at the time of our opening. At the same time a good deal of easiness was shown on account of a bank failure As regards cotton itself the feeling was very favor able, on the belief being that the temper ature of the past few days had settled the question of a top crop, because the crop Is so late. High temperatures were the rule this morning. but a good deal of rain was indicated for tomorrow, and this is pretty sure to weaken the bear po- sition. The movement, while large, is not remarkably so, and of course 1t must be large if we are to make no more than ten million bales.
 The consensus of opinion is yet that no matter how large receipts may run for some time, they will not run so large all the time as to bring the total much over the last crop. Prices opened to 16 points higher with good deal of animation and further gain was shown when 1t appeared that receipts might not exceed 5000 against 50000 last year. Cables were 10 to 13 points higher. The Manchester market for cloths and yarns was much better Local shorts were nervous, many poor crop reports coming in.

cothran e co.,s Stock Letter.

New York, October 2l.-London houses today have been sellers of about 30.O00 shares, buying but very little. Their heaviest selling was in Atchison common. Securities in Wall street were sold freely at opening, mainly because of the bank failure in Pitsburg, but very shortly there was feeling manifested after the tempo rary recession. Copper, sugar and Penn sylvania and Ohio were leaders gain to points on today's transactions Stocks look as though they have been sold to standstill. There is especially a sound understone to standard railroad stocks. Two influences combined to put up the market today, the bears deeming 1t wise to cover on the report of failures which came out early, believing that there would not be much more unfavorable news to be expected The other factor was the liberal buying by prominent people who. while they may have been influenced by a desire to support prices felt that stocks were purchase at about this level for investment. The Federal National Bank of Pittsburg is not member of the clearing house. The failure was precipi- tated by a bad loan of S200, GOO. Small country banks were principal depositors and further serious trouble Is not looked for. The sugar trade is not in good shape, but if congress passes the Cuban recipro- city measure it will be a strong bull card on the stock and will carry the price of the later very much larger.

Buying or- ders were heavy and the general public seemed to have became suddenly imbued with the enthusiasm of the bulls. The features of the morning were about even- ly divided between bullish and bearish features Chief among the bearish feat ures was the suspension of the Federal bank of Pittsburg, but the failure ap- parently did not effect prices point. Later in the day liquidation and profit taking sent prices down to 13 points, the net gain being Il to 15 points.

COTTON MARKET
 IS STILL STRONG. Opening Higher and Steady
 Buying Kept it Up EXPECT LIGHTER RECEIPTS Continued Buying of December By Leading Operator Gives Rise to
 Rumor of a corner-After
 Setback Came Rally.
EXPECT LIGHTER RECEIPTS

New York. october 21.-The cotton mar ket opened strong at an advance of 6q1S points on active covering and buying for long account, following cables that were higher than expected by considerable margin, including an advance of ten points in the English sport market. In addition 10 the higher cables the outlook was for lighter receipts for the day and while the weather was nearly ideal, so far as late development, picking and the move ment was concerned, the movement con tinued steady to firm after the call In spite of heavy realizing sales by recent buyers who were operating on the reac- tionary theory. All sorts of bull talk was heard on the advance. Continued buying of December by leading local operator gave rise to rumors of corner in that option and after slight set back around midday the market was rallied to a net gain of 17Q24 points by reports that the New Orleans bull leader was bidding for large blocks of March in the south ern markets around ten cents. The esti- mates for tomorrow's receipts at leading points were rather irregular, Houston and Galveston being large while New Orleans was light The southern spot markets, however were generally firm and un- changed to 3-16 cent higher. and this helped in the spread of bullish sentiment as did also private cables from Liverpool, attributing the advance in that market to the demands of spinners who said they had become alarmed over the smallness Of spot offerings. The advancing tendency was also encouraged by the large ex- ports for the day, which footed up some 45O0O bales The reported failure of the national bank at Pittsburg had no effect on the market which continued firm un- til near the close, when demand became slightly less insistent and realizing eased the market off, closing barely steady at net 1O@15 points higher. Sales were SOO,- % bales, estimated Port receipts for the day were 42990 bales against 56,0s3 last year. The New York spot market was steady at an advance of 20 points, but no sales were reported at the advance
