COFFEE MARKET EASIER.
Selling More or Less General on the
Slight Decline.

New York. Oct. 1.-THE coffee market
showed somewhat easier tendency, to-
day. after the recent sensational ad-
vances While prices for spot delivery
were unchanged, futures closed at loss
of from IS to A points for the day, with
December contracts selling as low as
I475, compared with 15.15. the high rec
ord of yesterday Selling was more or
less general on this decline which fol-
lowed lower European cables and reports
of better weather for the new crop in
Brazil but it was largely attributed TO
European operators. They We're supposed
to be selling out long contracts purchased
some time ago against sales abroad.
There was nothing in the way OF crop
news from Brazil aside from the regular
weather advices, and while reactionary
sentiment was probably encouraged by
the much heavier Brazilian receipts and
the increasing stock in both Santos and
Rio, Brazilian shippers were said to show
little or no disposition to shade their
prices
Firm offers of coffee from the primary
markets were therefore unchanged, or III
