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. Stevens Company. 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.

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: FUTURE QUOTATIONS.
