BRApsrREET's REVIEW

NEW YORK, Nov. s.-Bradstreet's to- morrow will say:
 Events of the week have made for a slightly better tone in trade and inquiry and number of encouraging items are to be reported, although general survey still reveals rather spotted conditions. The change in the atmosphere of the stock market. the upward rush of cotton prices and the sustained strength of grain have tended to make for better sentiment, al though there has hardly been sufficient time for these tonic features to be reflect ed in actual trade dealings still, cooler north and west, and the strength of cot ton has made for more cheerful feeling at southern centers, fortunate in having good crops in tributary territory. The wool trade, after & long spell of quiet, reports weight season. with advances in prices recorded.

5 D. m. caused the support to be with drawn and running break ensued.
 The market has given signs for the past two days that other stimulus than the shortness of the crop necessary to sustain it, and as reports of easier spot demand have continued. the buying today was not sufficient to hold 1t. Some spot people are claiming that cotton can easily be bought on a tenderable basis in a great many places in the south and are advising against the purchase of the near positions,
 Until the foreign news Is more definitely known and the attitude of the mills de- fined since this break, would go slow in buying. Liverpool is due 33 to 40 down.

NEW ORLEANS. Nov. s.-rhe co

NEW ORLEANS Nov. s.--The cotton market was called upon to absorb more selling and realizing today than 1t could take easily and prices gave way about 125 points during the process.
 Early dips stimulated fresh buying from the public and liqWdated longs, but the steady stream of offerings that came out on the bulges proved too much for the buyers in the end.
 Reports of uprlsings in Germany. pos sibility of France occupying more of Ger many, more favorable weather, easier spot basis, talk of slack demand from mills and belief that the market was in an overbought condition induced the selling and liquidation.
 Press dispatches saying the movement of the Bavarian army on Berlin has been stopped, cables saying the English mills were expected to vote to discontinue short time, and large dry. goods sales at Fall River and increased activity in Worth Street stimulated the buying.
 Prices rallied sharply in the late trad ing rumors that Livermore and Mills were buying in New York on an optimis- tic speech of Judge Gary. but the bulge met free offerings and prices soon faded away.
 All indications point to the cumination of the bull movement for the time being and longs who realize early are likely to consider themselves lucky before long

HUBBARD EROS. & CO.'S LETTER

NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-(Special. )-Cables were lower than due this morning, owing to the new complications in Germany which also had an adverse effect upon sterling exchange. Private dispatches from Liverpool reported a poor character of buying on the advance yesterday and said that trade demand appeared to have slacked for the moment. The same re- mark might have been made of our mar ket on the rapid advance yesterday aft ernoon. In response to the cables and the foreign news, prices here opened lower and the market sold off a full cent pound from yesterdays closing prices. New Eng land mills were steady buyers on the de cline, checking the market, but the Vol ume of realizing was heavier than for some time. This is a perfectly natural market after so sharp an advance and it is quite probable the decline may proceed further at the moment. It will be re- called that a similar process of digestion has accompanied each new trading level this fall. The only new feature Is the fact that the size of the crop is now pretty well determined.
 December and January futures are due at 1S.47d in Liverpool tomorrow.-Hub- bard & Sons.

SHANNON & co. COTTON LETTER


 NEW YORK; Nov. s.-The extent of the initial break served to unsettle confi- dence of buyers to some extent, though the heavy offerings in the way of liqui- dation were well absorbed without causing any actual weakness. The tone, however, was slightly nervous with rather sharp fluctuations which promise to become more marked around those higher levels. It is said and it Is probably cor rect that cotton be bought on a tender able basis In some sections of the south, but shippers for delivery will need to act carefully if they are to avoid re- jections which would take the cream off such an operation. Some of the older position is unsatisfactory. There is some basis for that but others think that the market has quite thoroughly lquidated itself repeatedly within few points of every new high that has been reached. If reports as to the volume of selling at such times have been based on facts there would seem to be good ground for such belief. None appear to expect any large permanent decline. but fluctuations att this level are bound to be violent and some dip may go further than expected war rante dby facts. It looks however, like a genuine bull market where purchases on any sharp dip are the best.

STEWART'S LETTER


 BIRMINGHAM Ala, Nov. 9.-Liverpool futures were IS points below dues with good sales of 10000 at a decline of IS points in spot prices Cables from Man chester stated demand improving daily and trade very optimistic over future out come. Our markets opened about 75 points under Thursdays close on heavy selling due to a weak Liverpool and gen. eral belief that prices had advanced far enough for the present, coupled with the German political situation. A cable from Berlin before the opening that the revolt was under control did not have much effect and it looked as If the market would have broken without the German news, 1t was due on technical condi- tions after rise of 400 points in 8 week. There was q good class of buying on the first dip by spot people and trade interests taking the March and May op- tions freely. This rallied prices nearly Q hundred points from the early lows, where the market met further realizing, and later on pressure increased. forcing prices to the new lows. The finals were about 120 points under the previous close and the market was easy in tone at these prices. Spots were active and generally quoted 50 to 140 lower. The weekend figures were somewhat bullish. Southern spot markets sold 3s,400 bales yesterday, of which Texas sold 26,000 bales. Fall River sales for the week were 300 900 pieces. Sentiment at the close was reactionary, but a reaction of 15o to 200 points from yesterdays highs ought to be sufficient to bring in buying of the best character S. R. Stewart & Co.

 NEW YORK. Nov. s.-Trading today has been in about the substantial volume as yesterday and prices have held remarkably well. The market to indicate a good deal more public inter est and confidence while there has doubtedly been more short covering in the past two days. The market on this rally has shown much more determination and substance than on previous occasions of improvement during the current year. The attempted revolution in Germany be- ginning in Bavaria seems to have had short life and far from merry one, be- ing over almost before it began. We hear that i'm portant announcement repara- tions is likely to be made in the state de- partment this afternoon which will prob ably give better line on the chances of constructive development in Europe at an early date. The copper stocks have acted better lately and there is said to have been excellent buying of copper metal. Recent reports of the sugar companies have also been very satisfactory. The market today has run more to specialties, but the main list has held well and the outlook for the present is encouraging all though must expect good deal of profit taking after this substantial ad- vance.
