ATWOOD’S COTTON LETTER.
Special Wire to Lyons Sc James.
. New York, Sept. 4.—Some of the bears
were running. They found that .they
had too much company. So prices Ad
vanced. On the near months they were
6 to 7 points up and some of the more
distant ones rose even more. At tho first
there was some slight weakness today
because Llverjtool, after showing an ad
vance of about 2 points since last Friday,
reached and closed, barely steady, while
thereccip t» at the ports were another
source of weakness. Yesterday they were
9,254 vs. 3,992 on the same day last year
and today there were 6,777 against 4.435
for this day last year. The total thus
far this week is neatly 8,000 bales more
than during the same time last week.
But in spight of eveythlng that could b«»
against the market it advanood mainly,
owing tn the unfavorable crop reports
of the recent excessive rains which
caused rust, blight, rot and shedding.
It should not be forgotten that the mar
ket here was, to some extent, oversold.
The drift of the crop now In the ma.n
until quite recently, have been very- bear
ish, so much a> that the estimates <,t
9.000.000 bales for the current crop have
been by no means uncommon. The strike#
in New England also encouraged short
relling. As the case now stands there are
more buyer* than, sellers. In fact very
little cotton was offered here today. New
Orleans sent some selling orders, but they
were not Targe. The receipts »t Houston
were liberal. 5.40 vs. **47, and the spot
quotations 1-16 to % lower at Charleston,
fc't. Louis and Baltimore. Moreover, the
rainfall <n the cotton belt on Sitirday
and Sunday was comparatively unimpor
tant. anl the signal service today prew
dieted generally fair weather la Alabama,
Texas, Louisiana* Tennessee and Missis-
slppl, and also fair weather in South Car-
ollm. Noith Carolina. Arkansas and Gecr-
g::i, though preceded by showere on he
co tut. And yet, in the ice of all ibis,
cotton here closed very steady and quiet,
o <respectable idvanee. The spot aaloo in
Liverpool Averc 10.000. which is certainly
fair 'business. Private advice* from Man
chester today say the tone there l< health;'
ier with a good business, it is believed
here that there is a large short Interest
in the^ market, both for European and
New England accounts, not only in the
Actual cotton, but aJso in futures. It is
Faldt bat Manchester spinners are selling
yarn^ freely without covering In cotton.
In the meantime the cotton goods trade
in this country is thriving and within
the past week some descriptions have
.advanced. The strike enables manufoctr
nrers to reduce their stocks. And the
aspect of the entire dry goods market
has changed, noticeably for the better,
within a short time. Unless Liverpool
shows a marked depression and the crop
advices materially improve. It would not
be surprising to see some further advance
here, blit It will take decidedly stimula
ting news to give permanency to any lm-
provement, in view of the exciting stocks
and the stagnation m the spot markets
here and in the South.

SUN’S COTTON REVIEW.
New York. Sept. 4.—Cotton advanced 6
to 9 points, then reacted slightly, but
closed rety steady vith sales of 62.400
bales. The price since last Friday ad
vanced 2 points, but lost mo3t of this, and
closed barely steady. Spot sailes at Liv
erpool ware 2,000 bales today at a rise
of l-32d, and the closing \ In buyers fa
vor. favor. In Manchester yarns were
quiet and steady, cloths quiet. Silver in
London declined l-16d. New Orleans nrl-
vancod 1 to 3 points. Spot cotton here wns
steady. Sales, 100 for export and 405 for
spinning. The Southern markets were
generally quiet, and thire . was a decline
of 1-lfl cents at Charleston and St. Louis,
and at BaHtimore. New Orleans was
firm and most other markets were steady.
Norfolk quotations were revised and lower
by 3-13 of a cent, not exports from the
ports. Savannah -sold 1,300 bales and New
Orleans 460 bales. Port receipts yesterday
9,I'M against 4,869 last week and. and 4,335
last year; thus far this week 19,199 against
11.453 thus far last week. Generally fair
Weather was predicted for the corn belt
during the 24 hours with south or south
easterly winds In most sections. Houston
received 5,454 bales against 4,409 this day
last weekend 2,647 last year.
Today’s Features—Reports of injury to
the crop In Texas, Mississippi and else
where; some advance in Liverpool; the
favorable state of the dry goods trade;
and some Indications that the market
had been oversold, caused nervousness
umong the shorts and prices easily ad
vanced, though the weather today was
clearer at the South, and the rainfall for
the two days past has been comparatively
light, while the receipts at the ports r.nd
the interior towns are quite heavy.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Chicago, Sept. 4.—The visible supply
of the statement with lts increase of 2,-
178,000 bushels in wheat stocks was a
surprise to everbody. What were thought
to have been extravlgant estimates placed
the increase as 1,750,000 bushels, and few
peoplo looked for a gain over last week
of 1.300,000 bushels. The figures, when
they were bulletined, produced a weak
feeling and led to some selling, which
carried prices to the lowest point of the
day. Before that time and after tho
effect had worn off there was a steady
demand, almost amounting to a firm tone
to tne market, the strength In corn being
of such a pronounced' character ns to
communicate itself to wheat. Tho early
nows was also of a nature to sustain val-
uqs. December wheat opened at C6H; de
clined to 5GH; advanced to 67%; closing at
57—He. higher than Saturday. Cash wheat
was steady. Prices showed no essential
change.
Com—The Missouri state report on corn,
showing a decrease of 28 points in condi
tion from the previous one, was a great
hef.p to prices lb this market today. The
Iowa report was also published today,
but It did not bear fruit until the last
half hour when its iruo worth was be-
tiuyoO. In brief It stated that one-halt
the entire* area of corn In v.»at state had
been cut for fodder and that 80 per cent,
of the whole remained in the southern
counties and would do tho same. The
market was strong all day, but the de
cline during the last hour was more em
phatically bo than at any period of the
session. The elevator men and specula
tors wore the buyers early, but later the
demand was general. May corn opened
from 5276 to 6314; advanced to 64H; closing
at 5374,354—7801 cent higher than Satur
day. Cash corn was He- lower.
Oats--As far as they went, they were
in sympathy with corn, but tho amount
of business transacted did not permit a
very wide range In prices. The visible
supply statement would probably have
caused an e-asler feeling, had It been for
the superior power exercised by the corn
market. May closed He. higher than
Saturday. Cash oats were firm. Prices
showed no change.
Provisions—The strength which marked
trading in provisions came from corn to
day. There was a well defined determi
nation on tho part of some of the packers
to prevent a decline, to force an advance,
li> both of which, they were successful.
A weaker h6g market T^as disregarded
and the better feeling In corn furnished
tho incentive to buyer*. The close was
2274 oents higher than Saturday for Jan
uary pork; 25 cents higher for January
lard, and 10 cents higher for January
ribs.
The leading futures ranged ns follows:
