LOW LEVEL REACHED IN LATE TRADING Stopping of October Notices Causes Small Advance CLOSE WAS AT NET LOSS Private Estimate of Crop Conditions Placed Them at 6e.4 Per Cent,
 Against 72.4 Last
 Year.
CLOSE WAS AT NET LOSS

New York. September 29-The cotton market was active and nervous, with the main feature the heavy notices issued on October contracts, representing about 1SO,- 900 bales. When 1t first became evident that the notices would be stopped there was a slight advance. but later the mar ket sagged off and in the late trading reached the low level of the day. The close was at a net loss of 10 to IA points Sales were estimated at 6OO,OOO bales
 The opening was steady at decline of Ii points on October and of 9 points on December and January, but 3 points higher on later positions. Near months were influenced by notices, while late po- sitions were higher in response to steady cables with wet weather south and bull- ish private crop accounts and shortly after the opening, the active buying of October by Wall street and spot inter ests were evidently willing to stop cotton and sell the later months at the differ ences. There was a continued demand for October against sales of December and January and it seemed quite clear that the notices were causing no depression, but the market acted very nervous in the afternoon and finally yielded before vigorous bear pressure and liquidation, the close was steady but within point of the bottom A private estimate of crop conditions placed them at 66.4 per cent against 7o.5 last month and PA last year.
 Receipts at the ports today 4S.165 bales against 39, 1886 last week and 73olO last year. For the week, estimated. SOOOOO bales against 24O.17S last week and 44S,l17 last year. Today's receipts at New Or leans, 2272 bales against 1O,7S7 last year and at Houston 1s.504 bales against 16,249 last year.

Ware &.LeIand's Market Letter.

The question of what would be done with the rapidly increasing stock of cot ton In New York when 1t came to the first notice day in October has been the important factor. The subject was one of so great importance owing to the fact that cotton had been coming here In large quantities for delivery on October, and the stock, already amounting to 160- 900 bales, promised to largely exceed these figures before the end of the month, that operations in futures were on a restricted scale, in view of the uncertainty sur rounding deliveries.
 This morning before the market opened 1t was generally known that notices for in circulation. This news acted as a de- pressing factor for few moments, as many houses had orders to resell con tracts if the cotton was presented for de- livery.

The principal feature of today's mar ket October cotton tenders in New York was solved without any exciting devel- opments.
 Anxious October longs evidently put in liberal selling orders at the opening which caused October New York to open at 1040, or 30 points under December. There was a rapid rise thereafter of 15 points to 1055.
 Notices for 12s,000 bales circulated and were stopped by leading bulls. This had a steadying effect upon the market but
