Increased activity marked the day's developments, a more general In terest In market affairs being displayed on all sides. Frequently during the day the market would steady up ot) covering by satisfied shorts, but every such period would only serve aa a fur ther Incentive for bearish attacks. However, there was nothing unnatural about the decline, for the exceedingly favorable crop news Justified In a measure the lower range of values at tained. Our own advices from the In terior are excellent Indeed, stamping with more certainty the ruling pros pects for a splendid out-turn. The va riable weather of late, now wet and overcast, now clear and dry. haa In reality given considerable impetus to the further devolpment and maturity of the plana already heavily fruited.

Aug. 9.—Thl* morning'* movement on tha atock exchange was characterised by tha same conflict of speculative opinion that waa apparent yesterday. American stocks in Lon don were quoted fractionally lower, accompanying a generally heavy un dertone in the markets abroad.
