New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans. Oct 10.—Cotton fu
tures opened steady at a decline of 3
to 4 points. Cables lower than
due and encouraged short selling'in
the early trading in spite of unfavora
ble weather tetums from the belt. On
the map too much rain was shown for
the good of open cotton. Low temper-,
atures still prevailed in Oklahoma with
indications of light frosts at a few
points. The market was not active and
with no support coming the bulls was
inclined to sag. At the end of the first
half hour of business prices were 8 to
15 points under yesterday’s close.
On the decline shorts became good
profit takers and fresh buying for long
account came in. Commission housee
reported some little buying of an In
vestment character. Reports from net
a few localities in the cotton belt indi
coated a somewhat better spot demand
and stronger holding of cotton on the
part of farmers. From several counties
in Mississippi telegrams were receivc-
ed stating' that cotton was all picked.
This news helped the market which
recovered to witjjin 4 to 5 points of
yesterday’s close. This was the level
at noon.
In the afternoon session cotton was
at first depressed to almost the low
levels of the morning by the declines
in the southern spot markets, but la
ter a heavy profit-taking movement
started among shorts and this put
prices at 2 o’clock 2 to 6 points over
yesterday’s close.

Rome, via the frontier, October 9.-—
Friends of Rechaid Pasha ex;plain that
his refusal to accept the portfolio of Mr. H. W. Meacham, a former Cha^

that the only possible way in which did the most paid-for business in the
Turkey could save anything was to whole company,

Turkey Consults PoWere.
Berlin, Oct 9.—A circular note from
the Turkish government, asking the
powers whether they consider that
the time has arrived to seek a basis
for negotiations looking to peace be-
twe^ Turkey and Italy, and under
what conditions, was presented to
the German for^gn ofllce today. The
note contemplates the cession of
frtpoll to Italy under certain con
ditions.
It is probable the communication
from Constantinople will be discussed
by other powers before the Italian
government is approached. It is
tiiought at the foreign office that
Italy may not be ready to negoUate.
The decision to expel Italians from
Turkey against which representatives
