Lovemen's Cotton Letter.

By H. & B. Beer.
 Market quiet and featureless today, al- though futures are considerably higher than the closing of Saturday, December selling high as 9.S1, closing at 9.7SQ979.
 The higher range of values was due to favorable Liverpool and Manchester ad- vices and to falling off in receipts com pared with arrivals of last year at all ports today 61.794 against 72,025 and esti- mates for tomorrow's arrivals fell short of what they were on corresponding day one year ago. Houston expects 33,500 to 35,5O0 compared with 40080; Galveston, 32,eOO to 33000 compared with 4S,324; New Orleans 2S,5OO to 3o,5OO against 30, 40, while the estimates were a little thicker than what was looked for, the mere fact that they were less than one year ago sufficed to encourage longs In supporting the market, which ruled very steady throughout the session. The political cam pagn, local and national. which will be brought to a close tomorrow by battle of ballots, had much to do with attract ing attention from the cotton market. There was little doing In actual cotton for European account, foreigners prefer ring to await results of the presidential election.

cothran 6. Co.'s Market Letter.

The tone of the market showed dis tinct nervousness on the part of the bears
 Shorts bought every chance they could get. Early, when January sold at 996 there was a move to break the market but when 91 was reached Liverpool ad- yanced and this resulted In a scare here
 Prices moved up, growing harder, until 9.99 was reported The amount of cot ton for sale was very small We don't see what shorts are going to do when the demand increases after election. As soon as there is any buying at all for out side account the market is likely to show in quotations the strength of the under tone as it now appears. The tone is strong, very strong, and when the abso- Irte absence of anything like speculation
The Birmingham age-herald., 1904-11-08

Is realized, some idea of the strength Of the market can be learned. There Is every indueement to buy cotton for an advance in prices before long.
 The average crop estimate Is being re- dueed
 The buying after election Is going to be more liberal for an uncertainty will be over.
 Europe has bought and now America will buy. There should be more speeu- lation and if indications mean anything there will be. We believe cotton is going to work higher

CLOSE STEADY AT
 TIE BEST PRICES Business Improved Somewhat During the Afternoon BIG TRADING IN LAST HOUR FIrmness In Afternoon Was Result of Southern Trades Taking on
 Line of Long Con
 tracts.
BIG TRADING IN LAST HOUR

New York. November 1.-The cotton market opened steady at net advance of 9 to Il points in response to better cables than looked for. The bulge was taken as a signal for short sales by some of the room traders, and immediately following the call, prices slipped off a point or two.
 But Liverpool continued firm and sent some buying and the scalping element which in the afternoon became partc- ularly firm on the report that lower Wall Street was covering shorts and that certain leading southern traders were taking on a line of long contracts through various wire houses The close was very steady at the best prices of the day, a net advance of thirteen to sixteen points. Sales were estimated at about 15o0OO bales, a large proportion of the business being done in the last hour. The strength at Liverpool was attribut- ed to Alexandria buying. During the afternoon here, general business seemed to be improving somewhat, with com mission houses reporting larger selling orders as prices reached ten cents for the January option. The private advices of a firmer spot situation in the south, and expected of a better demand both for the spinners and for speculative account after election. were probably influential in causing the demand to cover of shorts.
 Port receipts for the day ran about coco bales under figures of last year.
 Receipts of cotton at all the ports to- day were 61,794 bales against 95,1SO bales last week. and 71.973 last year. For the week. 100000 bales against 4S6,92O last week and 431079 last year.

DEATHS AND FUNERALS.
Dr. Griggs Was Found Dead in His
 Bed This Morning.

Dr. Edward L. Griggs, one of Wat erbury's we'll known physicians, was found dead in bed this morning at his home, 36 Cottage Place. A few days ago he felt that his heart was giving out and called in Dr. Castle. He retired last night apparently feeling well considering his condition. Death was due to heart failure.
 Dr. Griggs was born in South Wind sor, July 1S, 1888. He was the young est of the four sons of Charles and Frances Griggs, all of whom proceed ed him in the unknown world. In 1S45 he removed to Waterbury with his family and entered the academy where he studied until he was 15 years of age. After spending four years as an apothecaries' clerk he entered the Yale Medical College and later took course at the Long Island Medical O'i- lege hospital where he received his de- gree in 1864. and since that time ne has resided in Waterbury. For many years he stopped at the Scovill House, where he lost a valuable collection of family heirlooms when the building was burned. He was familiar figure about the public streets and kept close watch upon what was going on not only in Waterbury but the world over. He was a skillful musician and in his younger years devoted much time to the study of music. The tuner al will be held Friday afternoon with service at the house by Dr. Anderson.
