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. Atwood. Violctt & Co. SUN’S COTTON RlETVIBW.

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: FUTURE QUOTATIONS. Aug Sept.
