Advices to-day from abroad were not en
oouragiug, and the stook market mec with an
other setback in the shape of furth r export of
gold to th“ amount of £600,000. Trading is still
almost purely professional, and this at a time
when many confidently expected to see a better
state of affairs in the street, Is particularly dis
couraging. Outside conditions are as favor
able as expected, but the foreign sii uauon,even
though there appears to be a disposition to sup
port weakening nouses there, remains a menace
to the stability of prices, an and seems to be the
principal check to operations in speculative
lins here. Shipment of gold was tbe most
effective factor on the bear side to-day, and
the trading element no longer hesitated to sjII
leading stocks short. Burlington and Quincy,
Bt. Paul, Atchison, Richmond and West Point,
and Lackawanna bang conspicuous
for the impression made upon their flgur s.
Selling pressure brought more activity, which,
however, was confined almost entirely to the
stocks mentioned, and while there was noticed
an increased tendency to trade in low priced
shares, such trail'.actions resulted in no fuipor
tant movement. Tbe market was firm at tbs
opening, but traders sold Burlington and Quincy
and a few others aided by some foreign sales,
and fractional losses were scored in all the
leading stocks in early trading. Avery
promising rally from these prices was in pro
gress when the announcement of tbe export of
gold was made, and th© stocks bought in for
6hort account were thrown over immediately,
and new lines put out all along the line, so that
before the delivery hour most of the prominent
shares were down about 1 per cent , and Bur
lington, which bore the brunt of tue pressure,
nearly 2 per cent. Tbe most demoralizing
spectacle of the day, however, was to j e East
Tennessee first preferred sdl at 44, aud on the
marketing of mM shares, declined ?o 42. Late
trading was merited by a sharp deciine in Silver
Certificates to 99, but the stock list, under the
influence of covering, rallied fractionally, and
most shares were brought up to within a shade
of Batui day's figures. The cl se, however, was

again heavy at close to lowest prices. Final
changes generally show large fractional losses
fqr most f the leading shares; while Burlington
add Quincy is off 196, New Jersey Central l,and
Silver Certificates percent.; while most of
the stocks show only insignificant losses for
the day. Tbe sales aggregated 121,000 shares of
listed and 4,000 shares of unlisted.

New Y'ork, July 20. The Sun's cotton
review says: "Futures were quiet, and there
were no striking developments in the general
situation. The buying of one firm to the ex
tent of about 5,000 bales early in the day for
the time being offset a slight decline in Liver
pool, and, in fact, caused a small advance, but
later on, when this prop was withdrawn and
some long liquidation in August. Raid to be for
the account of those who were tired of switen
ing at big premiums, and when, moreover,
continent sold spring months to SGtoe extent,
and room operators hammered the market a
little, early gain was lost, and the net result
for the day was a decline of 2®B points. The
weather summary, published on Saturday,
stated that at some points on the Atlantic
moisture was needed as well as in portions of
the southwest. It was interesting, therefore,
to observe that the rainfall at C.,
within the la9t 24 hours was 3% inohes, that
.86 of an inch fell at New Orleans, and that
there was a slight precipitation at Galveston,
Tex. A Memphis firm published a crop report
that was in most respects favorable. Southern
markets were dull, and in some oases weak
aud nominal, and in r.o showed firmness.
Trivate advices from Liverpool were reported
unfavorable.”

Chicago, July 20.—Tbe wheat market was
dull during the most of the session to day.
Early there was a feeling of firmness due to
a better tone in cables. Liverpool was quoted
V 4 penuy higher on futures and Pan* 10®20
centimes higher. The effect of th* London
Times' bullish summary on the world s wheat
crop was counterbalanced by heavy rp siptxi of
winter wheat in the country. The local, senti
ment was still bearish, but there was no press
ure to soil n view of the cables and t h reported
crop injury For a time the market held pretty
Arm and Decemberwld from BCfk®*6\sc. Trade
as a rule was very tduggiah Finally when it
was known that receipts for to tn rnw Were
estimated at 910 chrs December fell to 86c.
The estimates as to th<? visib e supply were gen
erally that it would show an increase and this
assisted in causing the weakness. Afternoon,
on strong and higher cables, it milted and
closed at Cir n was quiet, but showed a
little strengtu at and time on cool wouthar and
the backward condition reported in s. me sec
tions. There was loot much pres>umijo sell.
A few buying orders coming in SepP*mb?r sold
