Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, October -(Special.)-Ac- cording to the official government re- ports, killing frosts occurred at three points in Oklahoma and such low temper atures are reported at others in the same state that it is thought the frost was general in the western and northern parts. Further frosts are expected to- night The markets, especially Liver pool opened higher and then lost all the improvement under what appeared to be further liquidation to close steady with the trade looking for a better mar ket over Sunday. After so sharp de- cline a recovery is due regardless of the future permanent course of prices, what ever that may be. Europe is apparently taking that view of the situation, as de- spite the general tendency to increase crop estimates the foreign markets give the best support to prices
 Liverpool is expected to come 8 to 1 points higher tomorrow.

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, October 21.--Cotton fu- lures opened steady at an advance of l to 3 points. Heavy selling orders had to be filled on the first call, which prevented the market from making a response to the weather news. The weather map in- dicatod freezing temperatures over the most important cotton sections of Okla hoina and heavy to lght-frost extended well downward into Texas. Ordinarily, such a map at this time of the year would have caused panic of buying, but the market made only an insignificant ad- vance because it was swamped by offer ings which by some were supposed to come from members of the bull clique and by others to come from bearish in- terests who were manipulating prices. The forecasf1or the western belt prom ised more frost tonight in all sections which made the situation all the worse, but prices after the call slowly sank and at the end of the first half hour of trad ing were unchanged to points down compared with yesterdays close.
 Selling increased as the morning pro- gressed. and the trade was at a loss to account for the offerings in the face of the bad weather conditions. The demand for contracts was good, but it was more than supplied. Throughout the morning hundreds of telegrams poured Tn rom the western half of the cotton belt, tell Ing of the damage done and reporting stiff spot demand at the highest prices of the season, but prices of futures were persjstently held down. Soon after the middle of the morning the trading months were to II points under yester- days close. Toward noon the pressure became somewhat lighter and small re- eovery took place. At noon the trading months were to points under yester- days final quotations
 In the afternoon session the ring was dull but the tone of the market was somewhat steadier At o'clock prices were & couple of points under yester- days close
 The market. closed steady, unchanged to points down compared with yester- days close.

1t seems that the steps to get bail
fer E. R. Thomas, charged with mur-
dering Gilbert Winter, have not a.
countered smooth travel 1t was at
first thought that there had been an
agreement between District Attorney
Lamb and Dinkins & Caldwell, counsel
for the defendant, that his bond should
be fixed at $4,000. This however did
not meet with the approval of Rsane &
Roane who assisted in the prosecution.
Hence when the papers were presented
to Judge Mclean and he refused h
ratification of the agreement.
1t would appear now that the only
avenue open to Thomas counsel to get
bail is habeas corpus proceedings which
will probably be brought before cham
cellor Blount at as early day.
