Special Wire to Lyons & James. New York, Sept 6.—Liverpool did not respond this morning to an advance on this side yesterday, that had been ex pected, and after an improvement here of *R points, this feeling took shape In the way of realizing by soma of the long In terests. Terest which character of selling grew, as the absence of buyers became more evident and Anal quotations here are 6 points below, and In Liverpool 2 points higher than yesterday. The spot business In L'vrrpool continues large, 12,000. ind Indicates either one or the two features we mentioned yesterday. The movement at the ports is not large, being the »jm? on last year, but It is the fear of what 1m to come, and the prospects of large re ceipts are meeting a slack spot demand that creates a timidity In buying while the market is on an advance. The acre age of the crop now growing is about T'D/VO acres more than the acreage of i.w.M-99, therefore, to make 9.000,OW bales this year or 1,500,000 biles more than the crop of the year Just ended, it must be a yield unusually productive per acre, in order to bring about this result Sonie of the Southern Bpot markets are better to day* most of them unchanged. Our New Orleans houses advises us that Branham expects large receipts tomorrow and there after. The Chronicle makes the crop of M9M6 7,527,000 or about 21,000 less than the flquri* of the Nsw Orleans Cotton Ex change. A lower Liverpool is expected tomorrow, whether we will sympataize, jj the question. Atwood. Violet * CO. 4 to 7 points, rlostng tmtoy steady, Si lea 87.300 bales.

Sept. 6.-The last half hour’« trade in wheat today saved the market from being characterlz3d as one of the dullest on record. Up until the time the range covered but ^c., whilst a good, Gtlll undertone to prices was quite ap parent. The announcement of unusually email estimates of tomorrow's arrivals started the crowd to covering. The con tinental cables, with advices from all points with the exception of Antwerp, having arrived, a short time previous, had put the temper of the trade in a :it state for buying, so that when shorts and sellers of calls undertook to cover they had as accessories the scalpers and bu».s generally. The news was, for the most part, in favor of high prices. The strength in corn exerted a good influence in the preserving the tone of wheat early. De cember wheat opened at 5674; advanced to 67%; closing at the outside—74alc. higher than yesterday. Cash sales steady. Sules were made mostly at yesterday's prices. The strength la futures caused corres ponding firmness in the cash market la ter. Com—The tip that the govenment would give a very low average in the condition of'corn, in Its forthcoming report, fixing the figures 55 per cent, to 59 per cent, against 69.1 per cent, on the 10th of Ag- uust, was the subject of much talk ,ln this market today. J.t received great cre dence and caused considerable buyhrj. with the results of producing a materlui advance to prices ami a firm undertone to the action. The belief that the report had leaked out has many believers, it being remarkable that those people who seemed to be posted on previous occasions were the ones, that had the, figures to day. The close was strong wilthln ftc. of the top. May corn opened, from M-tt to 55; sold at 54%; dosing at 66—%c. higher than yesterday. Trading In cash corn were steady and at unchanged prices. The close was nominally higher with the futures. Oats—The strength in com was reflected In oats, the trade, however, being or a lifeless character until the final activity In the other grains led to some covering by shorts. The close was firm at a gain %a%c. over yesterday for May. Cash oats were strong, prices ruling %c. higher than yesterday. Provisions—At tho opening of the mar ket for product, the tone was good and the prices were bound upward, but the packers were unanimously in their oppo sition to an advance, their offerings carry ing values off very materially. Later in the session' the sudden spurt In grain acted sympathetically on provisions and a partial recovery was made. The close was 10 cents than yesterday for January pork; 2%c. higher each for January laid and January ribs. The leading futures ranged as follows: FUTURE QUOTATIONS.

Sept. 6.—With rather Indifferent foreign but higher continental advlceo, heat opened firm but not active. Opera tors were principally of a local character and confined to a decidedly narrow range, and the market continued In a dull and listless manner up to within an hour of the close, when charts, who hod been what nervous at tfce strength dis played in corn on the advance ”tlp” of * government report, started covering, jslng a sharp advance or %c. Good clearances of wheat and fiour equal 650,QUO shel?, added strength to the market, i the predictions that the governn’ent report Monday will show a deterioration of 10 points from the past month, thus suggesting a crop of nearly J^. ouo bushels, the market In com opened strong and active, with good, general buying nd prices advanced %c. from the Initial quotations. The market became quiet to wards the middle of the session, but gained a new lease of life towards the close, when it became very active and scored a further advance of %c. The closing was strong at about the high point for the day. Regardless of the expectan cy of the government figures of Muu.ouva*) bushels, there are other reports who ea. late the coming crop at 1.769,600,000; i account for the discrepancy by stating » urea has been greatly underestimated. Ttv primary receipts about 5£0*9*>; local receipts, 345 ‘cars,, with 44.6U0 bushels on than for the past few days. There a fair outside demand and offerings ratn fight;-prices scored a gain of %c. to % closing firm. Oats look cheap to view of the light crop, and high prices of corn and flay. - Provisions—WltJi A firm nndi active feel ing, the hog product-opened at about yes terday’s cloulng prices, the strength anated from the light receipts at the yards, and the strength in corn. Latei offerings became more liberal and do- pressing tho market, though the closing, was steady at about the initial quotations. Lamson Brothers * Co. NAVAL STORES.
