DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 31.-Against
Mr. Cordill's report this morning, there
was a most hullish report by The Jour
nal OF Commerce, saying that crop con-
dtions had declined points during the
month. against a decline OF only Ia
ton on October 90, this year. 621.
against SIS last year. 6e.S In 1911 and
60 in 1910.
Replies from correspondents as 10 the
size Of the crop average 1871 900 bales
The feature OF Liverpool was the
larger spot sales, supplemented by ca
bles reporting increased demand, better
business in Manchester and spinners
confident of lower prices and largely UNI
covered.
The map shows cloudy weather in the
west, fair in the east with continued
cold. Indications are for unsettled
weather and rains in the western States
over Sunday and fair and continued cold
in the east.
First traders here were at an advance
of to points, with a stubborn tone in
the market in respect to depression.
Technical conditions here are not i'm
pcrtant. as longs have realized right
along on the last advance and the re-
cent break has caused trailers to liqui
date.
The feeling here is bullish. The strong
situation is fully realized and supple
mented daily by unfavorable crop re-
ports ano strong spot news, showing
that holders are resisting the decline.
Fear OF possibls further liquidation in
New York checked support at the start.
hut the market advanced l6 points as
soon as New York showed no pressure.

Bulge Over 1910 for Jan.

NEW YORK, oct. S1.-The break of
so points for October Thursday was too
much on the nerves of local bulls here
and the cotton market opened STEADY
to-day with much better undertone
and first prices were l up TO points
lower than last nights close.
Liverpool came in about as due This
coupled with a bearish report rom Cor
dill on Oklahoma and Arkansas caused
rather free offerings, attributed chiefly
TO ring spectators and commission
houses However. the trade received
the usual grist of bullish news from the
belt and the buying was of better
character than for some time. The
larger spot houses and old bulls were
aggressive bidders, as well as absorbed
offerings as quickly as thrown Oh the
market The trade as whole did not
take CordiIrs report seriously. Reac-
tionary sentiment was general and dur
ing the forenoon prices stood to "a
points above last nights closing figures
