BAD BREAK IN The
COTTON MARKET.
Believed Bureau Will Report
Large October Ginning.
Especial to Times-Recorder.

New York, October 24.-There was
a renewal of heavy liquidation in the
cotton market today and another SEN
sational break which, carried prices
from 80 to 50 points from the closing
figures of last week. January con-
tracts sold at 1894, or about $5.95 per
bale under the high record OF tae
season. A slight reaction followed,
the result of a nervous and unsettled
tendency to increase the estimates of
the yield and the expectation that the
Census BNreau report will show a
comparatively large amount Of cotton
ginned to October 18th.
