G. E. PIERCE s CO.'S COTTON LETTER.


 NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 2s.-From the opening of the Liverpool market the trend of prices was to lower levels. Heavy sell ing by importers. London houses. the conti- nent and from America. with insufficient demand. and the South offering freely were the causes ascribed in cables for the decline. In the final result. options lost 14 English points and spots. on sales of 7.- 900 bales. Il points Our opening prices were again about the highest of the day Initial trades were a parity with the de- cline in Liverpool and during the early trad ing values were further depressed by free selling. Efforts of traders to advance prices. believing that a reaction was due. accomplished little more than check tenn porarily further recessions. Announcement from Washington was made that the census department will publish a ginners report to- morrow. which. 1t Is expected. will be the final summary of all cotton ginned to Nov. 14th.. Probably nothing satisfactorily con- elusive regarding the size of the crop can be deduced from the figures furnished, but 1t is supposed they will represent between 7S and S5 per cent of the final results Doubtless large bureau estimate is being discounted by present prices. and should the figures prove disappointingly small. the market would experience a sharp reaction In our opinion 11.4O0.O0O to l1.5oO, 900 as the official indication of the crops size on Dec. 3rd would have little effect on the market should prices remain practically un- changed until that time,

HAYWARD, WICK ( CO.'S COTTON
 LETTER.

tNirK1n Faunce, Mgrs)
 NEW YORK. Nov 2s.-Yesterday's spot markets were steadied by & big demand. Reports from spinning centres with the ex- ception of Fall River no less encourag- ng and in fact there appears to have been conditions
 Today's break must therefore be due to something of a speculative nature. We think it reflects mistake on the part of the local contingent to the probable showing of the ginners' report tomorrow and a still greater mistake as to the Gov ernment report the following Saturday.
 If a canvas was made of the local trade 1t would develop the fact that they are ex- pecting about 10.000.000 to 10.250.0 900 bales ginned to Nov. 14th
 The recent bulish circular issued by an interest placed the probable amount ginned at 9.700,00o bales. Parties confi- dent of 10.000.000 bales or over naturally figure that such figures would cause active liquidation and jumped on the market this morning. in which they were encouraged by weakness at Liverpool. active New Orleans longs as we'll as by an apparent absence of support by lower Wall Street
 Counting round bales as half bales, 6,815,- 900 bales were ginned Nov. 14th The re- ports far is indicating an increase of about 42Ia per cent, adding which to last years total figures would give an indicated report of between 9.700.000 and $500, 900. We think therefore that todays decline Is unwarranted and that unless 1t demoralizes Southern holders of which there is no evil dence as yet. it will be followed by a rapid recovery before the end of the current week.

Rock Island Employees Over Entire
System Express Satisfaction.

The announcement of the changes
in the executive head of the Rock Is
land and the forthcoming changes in
management is greeted with great re-
5oicing far and wide. The affairs O.
the Rock Island have attracted world
wide attention and the late develop
ments are topics of conversation
among railroad men everywhere. As
an indication of the feeling existing
among employees all over the Rock
Island system and especially at To-
peka, the following from the Kansas
City Journal of today is to the point:
Kansas City officials of the Rock
Island made no attempt to conceal
their satisfaction at the rehabilitation
of Ben L. Wincheu as the sole execu-
live head of the system with powers
subordinate only to those of the own
srs themselves.
''WinchelI is a western man. said
one yesterday, thoroughly under

Of the road and the territory it serves,
and can show a profit instead of a loss

Not a word is said against Mr.. Lo-
reefs ability in certain directions but
it is said he never could fit into the
western environment. When he first
went to the Rock Island from the
Baltimore & Ohio he attempted to ap-
ply the Pennsylvania s methods TO the
western road. His first move was to
fill many important poeraung positions
with Pennsylvania men.
Accustomed to eastern conditions,
where traffic is so dense that it can be
cut and fitted to meet the exigencies
of operation, Mr.. Loree is said to have
committed the error of subordinating
traffic to operation, and at a tremend-
Gus loss of revenue.
Forced to curtail expenses, the re-
trenchment inaugurated is said to have
been at the expense OF the physical
condition of the property and of the
equipment

heads of the Rock Island system is

NEW LAKE FORMED.
Where Once Were Fertile Fields i'm
New Mexico.

Denver, Colo, Oct. "a Republi-
can special from Las Vegas says there
was another heavy rain in the noun
tains above the city today and word
came from up the river that a two
foot rise was coming down. There is
great anxiety in the city, as the river
is still out of its channel and it would
require but a comparatively small rise
to send the stream through the BUSH
ness section. The ravages of the pre-
vious storms have not been fully re-
ported and it is feared that another
flood would render useless the results
already accomplished.
The bodies of two women and a
child, which have not yet been identf-
fed, were found today.
Information arriving slowly from
the flooded district in Moro county
shows that almost the entire rich Tru-
jillo valley has been devastated.
A lake covering nearly 500 acres
now stands where once grew fertile
farms.
