PIEDMONT BROKERAGE CO.’S DAILY MARKET LETTER Cotton—A stronger Liverpool opening, but with smaller spot sales there, and futures up from 1 to 3 points, whereas they were due to come down 2 to 3, caused a better opening In our market. Boon after the opening n weak spot developed aud the room bears hsiniuered prices, but soon found that there was very little cotton for sale. A. sharp rally of 10 points In the summer months, which also extended to the new crop options. Anybody who has given the slightest attention to the techni cal situation knows that the South has l>ee»i wiling the distant options for some time, and they have been encouraged, too, by the collnpse of the May and July op- tlons nnd the generally favorably weather In the South the past ten dsys.

Stocks—Dullness, but with strength and advancing tendency In specialties that have not yet scored advances during tho pnst week were noticeable In today’s stock mar ket. A large vulnerable short Interest was dlselosed In Consolidated Has of New *ork. and shorts were forced to run. Advances were also scored In American Locomotive nnd the railway equipment shares. St. Paul led the advance In the granger shares on excellent crop reports. Amalgamated Copper was very strong, and although tne statement published by the company onlr showed surplus a little over dividends pal.., tt must not be forgotten that the Amal gamated Copper Comnauy Is a holding company, andlts profits m*roe £om Its subsidiary companies, nnd if the treasuries of these organisations could be Inspected, It would dlscloee tho real fluancIM position of Amalgamated.

Henllzlug sales went on In some quarters nnd fresh buying lu others, but up to midday It could not bavo been said that tho strong undertone of the market had been Impaired. During the *llrst hour profit taking carried down somo stocks, such as Colorado fwt Ruthg, UbSm Ft clflc and the Gould Issues, which had been among the leaders on the previous dnys. Pennsylvania wns exceptionally henry on a revival of the rumor, which, however, bad no letter a nth >rlty than before, that thq Paris loan of the company was bkrly t«» fall through. Smelters sold off shnrrly on the declaration of the usual quarterly divi dend, although well informed opinion had expected nothing else nt this time. These weak spots, on the other hand, were offset by groat strength In 8t. Taul, u * ’ reached In the course of the foreno* uew high point for the present movei nnd by the steadiness of the Copper shares. On the whale the Influences making for strength prevailed slightly over the opposite factors oh the result of the morning’s opera tions, but prices for tho general list worn very little changed.
