DUN'S WEEKLY REVIEW.

New York Oct AR G. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review of trade to-mor-
row will say:
Progress is slow. but sure, in the
leading branches of manufacture, CON
tracts being more readily placed for
distant delivery, while the percentage
OF idle machinery steadily decreases.
Satisfactory news from leading iron
and steel centers tends to strengthen
confidence elsewhere. as the consump-
ton of iron has been found a good
barometer of business conditions. Job
bling and wholesale trade in fall and
winter wearing apparel expands grad
ually and such spring lines as are
opened meet with a fairly satisfactory
reception, considering the recent indis-
position to provide for future require
ments. At many points the return of
warmt weather checked the revival of
retail trade in heavy goods, but as
that movement mad begun much earlier
than usual. the net result thus far is
better than last year. Building opera

BILE long interest in this market was
Immediately responsible for the de-
cline to 10 cents for January. The
loss from yesterdays close Q0.O4c),
was a trifle. but in view of a good spot
inquiry throughout the South this
morning at prices a sixteenth or more
higher, the decline in futures, though
small, was surprising. 1t is believed
that the raid was successful and that
a line OF about 10000 bales bought
few days ago when January was rang
ing between 10 25c to 10000, was sold
out to-day. The market should be
healthier for the elimination of this
weak spot. Liverpool opened about
points lower, but recovered all the
loss before the end of day. Reports
from the interior are that far more
are holding, though some middle men
who were carrying stocks have been
forced to sell. The movement of the
week is about the same as last week,
and considerably less than two weeks
ago. 1t looks now as if the prediction
of a great October movement Will be
disappointing, unless exporters come
into the market as free buyers. Re-
ceipts this year just as happened as
last year. will be large only when pur-
chases are large. as the farmer has
overcome the old habit of forcing his
cotton on the market. regardless of its
appetite or digestive powers. He sells
cotton now when it is wanted, and
does not try to ram ii down unwilling
buyers threats. Liverpool realizes
this part of situation and cables this
morning, say that course of that
market will be governed by the
South in holding or letting go
its cotton. During the afternoon the
weakness in futures caused spot buy
crs to hold off and Southern markets
sOftened generally, some showing a de-
cline from last nights figures. The
future market, however. rallied about
8 points. and at the close, stands
point better than last night. Liverpool
is due to come to lower in the
morning.

October, an increase over last year of
276,000, and an increase over the same
period year before last of $4,000.
For the forty-four days of the sea-
son that have elapsed the aggregate
is ahead of the same days of last year
S88, 900 and ahead of the same days year
before last 291, 900.
The amount brought into sight dur
ing the past week has been 524659 bales,
against 391, SIG for the same seven days
last year; 446,S40 year before last.
The movement since Sept. /, shows re-
ceipts at all United States ports to
have been, 1,S65,776, against 1,141,O40
last year.
Overland across the Mississippi. Ohio
and Potomac rivers to Northern mills

about as due on the New York close Of
yesterday. and the weather over the
belt could hardly have been better so
far as reflected by the mornings map,
and the early forecast which called for
continued fair weather. and rising
temperatures. But reports from the
South as to the spot situation were
more or less conflicting. some people
claiming that the decline of yesterday
had uncovered a better demand and
that interior markets were firming up.
There was also some uneasiness over
the appearance of frost at Denver, ana
In spite of the favorable forecast shorts
were in no mind TO leave their cotton
out over Sunday. This latter influence
was perhaps chiefly instrumental in
the covering at the opening when prices
after starting to points higher
worked up to a net gain of about z to
10 points. Following this demand
which seemed large from shorts, drop
ped off slightly and the market around
midday was no better than steady with
prices about to 6 points up from last
nights closing. The kind of weather
the South has had for the last two or
three weeks is such as to make rea-
sOnable talk of a top crop in some To-
calities, and certainly must be adding
considerably to the prospective yield.
Should frost occur within the next ten
days it would be bull card of dimin-
ished force with each day, it holds Off,
but barring that it seems to us that
the immediate market depends entire
ly upon the spot situation. Our own
adVices do not Indicate any too sat-
isfactory condition, and it looks to us
as though there would be enough SELL
ers in the South to cause a further
slight decline before demand increases
enough to check the downward ten
dency in full. We do not look for
any break of consequence. however,
and think that cotton should be pur-
chased on all sharn depreSsiOnS.
