The market continues to show but lit tle afcang’e and the fluctuations are nar row. The demand for new cotton Is nbt us good as the factors wish. » The recent rains have damaged the crop In this section, and as It -now ap pears. short's a decided falling off In quality. We wbuld again call the attention of the planter to the Importance of gin ning and packing his cotton dry, as gin-cut and dump cotton will not be accepted by the trade. Our quotations are still based on old cotton, Awhile new is selling for 1-4. of a cent less. } 'inin .i.»y. 1 Yestcrd v. (iood Middling Bid dim Mi let Low Middling...

Chicago, Aug. 28.—There Were very good export clearances of wheat and flour for the four Atlantic ports today, other than this, there was not a scrap of friendly news for wheat. The price hug around "Puts” for a long time when Tar- drldge, with the local crowd trailing on, made a determined effort to break the market. That he did not succeed in doing was due to the good demand that sprang up about 57 for December, ©very commission house seemed to have mod erate instructions to buy and the aggre gate formed a successful bearrier to any decline. The last fifteen minutes of the oesslon witnessed the lowest figures of the day. Early support having been with- draiwot December wheat opened from 57% and 66%a%; closing at the latter—%c. lower than yesterday. Cash wheat was in good demand ht the decline of %a%c. per bushel. Corn—A growing disposition to "short" the market Is seen in com. The latest re ports from tha West are not as mourn ful as those that were coming forward a w'eek .or two ago, in fact some of them received today were decidedly cheerful. Whether any greater reliance can be placed in them than in those that were formerly received is a question. The crowd- were Inclined to follow the im proved tone news, and sell corn. May corn opened from 52% to 52%: sold between those low limits during the session; closed at 5E%—%a%c. under yesterday. Cash, corn was in slow demand and weak. PrU ces wire 1 cent per bushel lower. Oats—The main bull argument of late has been the good withdrawals from the Store, but It 1 failed today—not a bushel being inspected out. There wai nothing else to hold prices up, and consequently they followed the course of wkeat and corn,. Receipts were four cars, f*Ix under the estimate. May oats ch.! - . %c. under yesterday. Cash oats weia 7,/ fair demand.( Prices were %tt%c. lower. , Provisions—Hogs were on the up-grade today again, and tho product merely followed. The Anglo -American Packing Company were doing their utmost to force prices upward and their endeavors were successful In a great measure. La ter advices from the yards quoted a clos ing gain In hog prices and made the strength In product more pronounced. The close was 10 cents higher than yes terday for January pork, 7%c. higher for January lord and 2% cents for Janua ry ribs. The following Is an account of tho lead ing future quotations: FUTURE QUOTATIONS. WHEAT— Open. High Low Clos. NAVAL STORES.

New York, Aug. 28.—Liverpool Is again calling 10,<M0 spots dally, but how long this will continue will depend on the offers from this side of the new crop, which will now soon be In order in considerable quantities. If the supply is greater than the dcAvnd, the usual result will follow and that will drag prices down on this side as well as contracts there. A revival Of spot demand on this side, however, would rescue the market In a measure In America nnd thus counterbalance lhe lack of spot Inquiries from Europe. Be fore Liverpool and continent'can receive much new cotton the supplies there will hive been reduced oinsidorably, and espe cially spinner's stocks, unless they buy liberally there from local stocks. Texas rains seems to have ceased. Selma wires us today that ruin continues and farm work is at a standstill. Receipts are tv-coming quite large, especially compared with last year, but if the market Is to be affected by a nine million estimate the movement must be compared with the ctop of ISM-82, or 9,034.000 bales. The re ceipts are now running behind the move- rr-ent of that year. Liverpool lost two to three points and this market 3 to 4 points Aug m 54 M ’A &3'4 Sept.

Trade was very limited and the sentiment of local traders were bearish. Shipments from India, Baltic and sundry ports 3i816,- 000 bushels, American, 3,279,000 . bushels, making the total European supplies for the week about 7,500,000 bushels. Later the the estimate for 500 oars for tomorrow, together with weaker closing foreign ca^ bics, aided in the depression and the mar ket closed at about the lowest point for the day. Total clearances of wheat and flour equal about <500,000 bushels, while ar. rivals at primary ports foot up 1,053.000 bushels vs. 647.000 bushel* the same day last year. Local stocks 'now aggregate about 27.250.000 buittels, the largest on record, and one of khe principal factors against prices. It would seem unreasona ble to expect any 'material advance while such conditions exist. Corn was Jalrly active at the opening 1th no material change In price. Liver pool was quoted %d higher, but as the de mand was limited no advance was scored; in fact the market became dull and de pressed coward* the mlddile of the scs- prices gradually eased off, though May option was held fairly steady. The Indiana and Kansas state bulletins are somewhat bearish and It is claimed that Georgia is offering corn direct to Liv erpool and underselling Northern ports, market ranged from 52% to 62%; clos- at 5:%. Exports 27,556; receipts U2 car®, with 250 estimated for tomorrow. Oats were dull and scarcely anything doing. Recetts nominal throughout the Provision* opened strong and higher on light receipts of hogs. There was a fairly good outside trade and prices soon showed a gala of id to 15 cents all around, and although there was considerable selling at the advance, offerings were all ab.
