Market Letter on Cotton. By private wire, J, K Latham A Co. Nbw Yohx, Oct. 8. For some nnex plalnable reason the market broke about 10 points early, and tbe sentiment was such that the market failed to recover. It may hare been the better weather, the nervousness In the stock market, or due to profit taking. The simple explan ation Is the eaalest, that the market can't always advance. The good news on the market la all out, a change can be looked for. Improved weather Will have an Influence for tbe time being, but we doubt whether the good weather effects will be as material, aa sentiment predicts It will require good weatker to pick what we have this year, without good weather the grade will be poor. I If recelpta fall of before the latter part ot this month, the world will conclude that the crop la moderate, and the buy Ing of spinners will prevent any break. For the present a steady market mesas a strong market. A reaotlon of ups sn4 downs is in order, end we believe in buy Ing Spring months. Spinners are buy ing In Texas at ale and aa long aa this condition exiets there Is no great chance for a serious break. Nkw York, Oct. 4. We believe this year's crop will prove nearly as large as the production of years ago. and even granting the influence of those specuk tors seeamg to maae crop conditions as dangerous as possible, there ia little hope of much more than waa grown last year. Laat year's crop wu probably be tween 10,250,000 and 10,400,000 bales.tho rest came of the stocks of the previous year. They aay the crop of 1900 wu 10,750,000, and only 10,450,000 appeared In eight We can roughly estimate total drawn Into consumption as 400,000 front lut year. Now thla year there ia too little to Indicate a yield above lut year and with an early frost not u much. There are of course other factors In the situation. The condition of the money market, the strike and mostly the ac cumulation of January. What Influence thla will have we can't tell, but aa far u supply and demand are concerned, we can no reason for not being bulls. Con sumption must be curtailed to meet de mand, . , . -I "t : i .

The other hesitated slightly as he explained his strange proposition. He was inspired by an Insane hatred to ward Marc Fournler and had t sworn to avenge himself on his enemyibyall concervabre means. 'Help me to wreck bis .drama,' he concluded, 'and I will make you rich. I have the means to do It You earn a great deal.

Is any- thine but conducive to sound repose. The action of the heart IS also inter fered with considerably, and the lungs are unduly compressed.
