Gilbert e clay's Market Letter.

It was evident this morning that the figures issued by the National Ginners' association. showing practically 4,i2OOOo bales ginned up to October 1S, was very bullishly construed by Liverpool, and that market sent over opening figures l6 to IS points above the close of the previous day. Further gains were made during the session., and the English market closed 20 to 2 points higher. The opening figures on this side were at an advance of about 30 points, which were nearly the h.gh points of the day. and from winch there was a decline of about 20 points.
 It was said tnat Price was sending con fidential telegrams advising selling. and this doubtless influenced some liquidation, which was aided by extensive bear pres sure from the Price clique. Everything considered the market held well.
 Our New York correspondents wire as follows: We have had frost: the in terlor is firm; Manchester Is anxious; the continent is asking for offers and evidence accumulates that this Is moderate crop and will all be needed. Yet the entire market is overshadowed by speculative mystery which. translated means that the government ginners' report is not likely to reflect the true condition. If today's market tells us anything, 1t tells us this; such confident selling as Is now in progress must have some assurances back of 1t. A further reaction might be brought about, In which event the market should be bought especially if the census ginners figures equal five and a half million bales, and cause iqtddation.'
 We believe In purchases on sharp reac- tons, in our opinion, the market Is likely to sell much higher ultimately.

that possible gold export was not a remote contingency. The special points of strength in today's stock market were without explanation and were believed to be attributable to operators tactics for the purpose of sustaining the market against tue realizing in progress.

All the markets were strong and higher today, cotton selling about 30 points above last nights close. due to the big ad- vance in Liverpool and damaging reports from the cotton fields.
