The st,K'k market to-day presented on the
whole a much firmer front than at any time Inst
week Though the announcement of thesus
uension of Gould & Henry wan made tho basis
br another effort to depress prices, the feeling
„„ the Street was much more hopeful, and tne
covering of shorts was on a large sca.e while
eonsi,let-able buying was noticed for the new
Unite Efforts at depression kept the market
feverish mid unsettled for some time, but bears
found buying too strong for them, and they
began to swerve with tlio tide, the advance,after
having one ■ stood, meeting no serious setback
for ii.e remainder of the day. The news of the

special feature v.as developed. Like Shore

Green & Co.'s report ou cotton futures savs:
"It lias lieen a generally stronger cotton
market, and there is an advance shown for both
old and new crop options. August appeared to
go up because there was very little offering, and
every call made acted as a stimulus, especially
as a portion of the demand seemed to bo new
buying orders on later months. The strength
was mainly induced by advices of damage by
rains to a portion of the crop, which alarmed
shorts, and led to more or less covering, though
the gain was greatest on September and Octo
ber. As against Saturday evening, August ad
vanced 90 poiuts,and other months 11 re 13 points;
closing firm, with shorts evidently timid.”

Chicago, Aug. I.—A little wheat, lard and
corn went around on delivery to-day, but no
oats. It was principally wheat. The early
market was firm on September, and prices
were steady around The crowd
was not disposed to do much trading. Receipts
were 148 cars, twenty of them being spring.
There are large receipts of the latter and helfied
to make the market easy. Operators were dis
posed to bull corn at the opening on the very
dry showing made by Signal Service reports,
but there were plenty of sellers. There was no
rain anywhere except in lowa and Dakota.
Prior to lo:30 there were scant sales of Septem
ber wheat at 70c, but tho market only rested
there an instant. It would probably not have
reached that point had not one or two heavy
sellers drawn out for the moment. Then it
slumped back Corn in the mean
time continued very slow and steady at a shade
over 39c for September. The visible sufiply
showed about what was expected—an increase
in wheat of a little over 1.000,000 bushels. The
exact figures were 1,018,1(04 bushels, but all
other grains decreased—corn 402,830 bushels
and oats 112,109 bushels. The figures had no
special effect on prices. September option hung
around 70c nr.-tty steady between 11 and 19
o'clock, anil then showed a disposition to ad
vance a little, selling up to TOVjje. All this time
local scalpers were doing the bulling. Tin- lat
ter part of the session was decidedly the strong
est of the day iu both wheat and corn. The
former closed at for September. Toward
the close a nundierof heavy operators liege.ii
buying corn freely and started up a large num
ber of shorts. The effect was to force Septem-
Iwr up to 40e and hold it there without any
trouble. The tone was strong aud bullish and
the pit well tilled. Tho short demand was for
all near options. September closed at 40c. Oats
were firm, in sympathy with wheat and corn,
but the fear of large receipts kepi high prices
front being realitod. Provisions were very slow
and tending down.

Advice to Mothers.
Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrtio should
always be used when children are cutting
teeth. It relieves the little suffer at once; it
produces natural, quiet sleep by relieving
the child from pain and the little cherub
awakes its “bright as a button.”
It, is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the
child, softens the gums, allays all pain, re
lieves wind, regulates the bowels, and is the
best known remedy for diarrhoea, whether
arising from teething or other causes. Jo
cents a bottle.
