ATWOOD’S COTTON LETTER.
Special Wire to Lyons & James.
New York, Aug.- 3L—The market Im
proved a few points only to be lost later.
Liverpool shows an Improvement of l
point and this market the witne. The
spot, busiucss of Liverpool continues very
g K>d and there are Indications of a le" r;
bearish feeling, the same may be said of
the New York market. Brenham reports
today continuous rains In that setlion,
but the* movement in Texas »o far has
not been materially affected as indicated
by the receipts at Houston-yesterday and
Brehham. Now Orleans la Considerably in
exoe.-oi of last year, but their receipts are
almost entirely from Texas. Today ends
the cotton year of 1SD3-1. tomorrow will
be issued te annual crop report by the
New Orleans Exchange. The indications
are, aevording to their n -ir-'-. the cr >i*
will be something in i-XiVhs of 7,r>«)u.P.»J
bales. The Chronicle as rome 70,009 bales
less in Its running count thin the former,
and unless the estimate of the Chronicle
of Southern consumption Is in^rea^ed
they are likely to nuke the crop about
7,450.000. This will not be known until
tomorrow week.

SUN’S COTTON RlETVIBW.
Ne-w York, Aug. 31.—The Sun's cot

vanced 2 to 4 points, but reacted and
closed generally 1 to 2 points lower and
easy. The sales were,&9,G00 bales, Liv
erpool advanced 1-2 to 2 points, the dis
tant deliveries showing 'the moat
strength, but later on part of the rise
was lost and the market {closed quiet.
Spot sales there -were 10,000 hales a*t

Manchester yarns were dull, tout steady;

points anJ th n n ivu-il ami I-h-mm/mT

with yesterday's closing. Port receipts

and 2,867 Inst year. Total Cor tho week,
24,794, against 1‘3.829 last week and 17,702
for the same week last year. New Or

Savannah 552. Charleston 250 and Nor
folk thirty-eight, Houston’s receipts to
day, S.9S0, against 2,582 this day last
week and 986 last year. The Mississippi
and Georgia state reports are unfavora
ble. In northwest Arkansas the crop
is almost ruined in some localities, bift
on the whole the crop in the state
seems to toe doing pretty well. The

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Chicago, Aug. 31.—Winding up of the
short transactions by either transferring
contracts Into more distant months or
by closing up the trades, was the notable
features in today’s business in wheat.
That some people did not make new deals
is the evidence by the widening of the
difference between September and Decem-
br from yesterday to at the close
of today’s session. Thercw as an Irregu
lar action to prices, the close being firm
with the strength borrowed from corn.
December wheat opened at 56%; sold be
tween that and 57%; closing at 57%aU—%
cent higher then yesterday. Cash wheat
was in good demand. Prices averaged
%a%c. per bushel.
The bulls In com wero'flrm In their posi
tion today. The telegrams from the corn
belt were many ln number and 1 emphatic
ln,their character. Every house were In
reoelpt of d-lspatches containing worse
nows tl.an has heretofore been puBHshed,
In addition to this, the contract stocks are
are low and are centered in few hands.
September shorts took alarm during the
latter part of the suasion toi iy and ex
hibited a willingness to pay a I premium
for that month. This Intensified the
strength In the other futures. Prices ad
vancing and closing at the top. May
corn opened at 53%; sold up and closed at
53%— 1 9*a%c. higher. September closed with
o gain of 1% for the day. Cash com was
bought freely by the shippers. Prices
were %c. higher than yesterday.
Oats—Thf* market received strength
from wheat and corn, at the same time
presenting features of its own. The cloee
was %c. higher than yesterday for May.
Cash oats were In good demand and an
advance of %c. over yesterday was made.
Provisions—On the prlncioal that an
advance In corn must improve the price
of hogs and with an actual gain in . the
price of that animal In today’s market,
the product was strong. The receipts of
hogs keep dwindling away and less than
are now arriving, are predicted In the fu
ture. Taking advantages of this situation,
the outside was buying provisions today,
with a result of an advance in prices.
At the close January pork was 10 cents
higher thn yesterday; January lard 12%c.
higher and January ribs 7%flI0c. higher.
The leading ranged as follows:
