STEVENS' COTTON LETTER. ,
Special Wire to Lyons & James.
New York, Sept 12,-The market was
a surprise to everybody. Instead of de-
cllnlng It advanced four points. Uvor-
pool. instead of receding In response trf
tbo decline here yesterday, only lowered
Its quotation, barely 44 point, wd to the
surprise of everybody, sold 15,000 spotB
and added J,000 bales to sales yesterday.
That unquestionably was a ttg surprise
Another surprise was the fact that the
New Orleans firm which wwb expected to
Issue a bearish crop statement today
didn't issue any statement whatever,
though the country was flooded with ru
mors th.it it would do so. New Orleans
was slightly higher. The spot sales were
largT at New York. Samnnah an* Gal
veston. and were fair at New Orleans
and Augusta. The weather news from
points in Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Al
abama. and Georgia was not altogether fa
vorable. The rainfall in pom of Texas
and Louisiana, in particular, was heavy,
and many points report a lower tempera
ture. The civil service predicted cooler
weather-in the Atlantic states. The ex
ports from the South were 10.858 bales,
showing that they are increasing slight
ly. On th« other hand speculation here
was small and sales being only 43.000.
Spot cotton was 1-16 lower at Mobile.
Memphis and St. Louis end ^*c. at Nor
folk. The receipts at the ports went H.&CO
against 6.466 this day last week, and 5,733
last year. Port receipts are expected to
reach 80.000 this week vs. 31.185 last week
and 52,637 last year. Houston receipts to
day were 5,283. or 2,100 more than the same
than the :ainr day last year. The thing
which most 'mpressed the bears today
was the activity in Liverpool. Big sales
of spot cotton would undoubtedly do mucb
to neutralize the effect of big rOxIpts.
The weather '• also being watched with
considerable Interest. Ren-wed excessive
rains and continued activity In LTverpcoi
would be Ukely to lift prices here still
further. Stevens Ac Oo.
SUN'S COTTON REVIEW. ;V
New York, Sept. 12.—The Sun's re- |
view of tlie cotton market saystCottou
advanced 3 to 4 points, then reacted
and closed quiet uud steady (It a net
advance of 2'to 3 points; silos 43,000
bales. Liverpool declined l-2‘ point and
closed quiet; spot sales 15,000 bales, be
sides 3,000 after the else yesterday;
prices unchanged. In Manchester yarns
were quiet and steady; cloths quiet.

Great.Britain. Receipts at New Orleans
tomorrow estimated ut 1,000 to 1.500,

week and 1.48S last year. Houston re
ceived today 5,263 gales against 1,133
lust tear; Augusta, 566 bales against
754 last year. Today's features: Activ
ity la Liverpool, more cheerful cables
from Manchester, heavy rains at the
tViuth, the omission of New Orleans to
fulminate the >big crop estimate ex
pected today, and some coverings of
slioris caused a moderate advance, but
the receipts were large, speculation
was dull, and part of the gain was lost
before the close.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Chicago, Sept. 12.—The rumored discov
ery of a new wheat exported country was
reported on the board today. The rumor
was generally discredited, but neverthe
less, it assisted materially in depressing
prices. It came from New York and was
to the effect, that, a cargo of wheat,
amounting to 450,000 bushels, had been
shipped from Chili to New York. Later
the rmotj was denied. Trading was rather
dull and 1 the market fluctuated between a
very narrow range. It started with a
show of strength on steadier cables and
moderate receipts, also somewhat influ
enced by the strength in corn, but the
trading was light, resulting in the mar
ket selling off to the put price. Subse
quently prices were forced up on the
covering of a short line by local specula
tors, but - the moment the demand was
satisfied, - the trade being entirely local,
prices eased off again. Toyrards the close
the market strengthened on light estima
ted receipts for tomorrow and the report
from New York that thirty loads of wheat
had been taken to the seaboard for ex
port. December wheat opened at 67%;
sold between 57% and 67%; closing at 67%
and 67%—unchanged from yesterday. Cash
wheat was Arm, offerings xvere light and
there was a good demand. Prices were
%c. higher. .
Corn was very nervous from start to
finish with, however, a strong undertone
ail the time. It started firm on light
offerings and 1 a continuation of the bear
ish feeling, assisted by some buying or
ders from the country. It weakened short
ly afterwards on local offerings, caused,
presumably, by the bearish Iowa state
crop report. This mokes the corn condi
tion 36 per cent, and the yield 80,000,000
bushels, the government report putting
It at 74,000,000. The state report further
add* that the fodder will be so generally
saved and used, that the fodder and grain
together rvyill be equal to about 60 per cent,
on an average. Prices became stronger
towards the close on buying by shorts,
on the light estimated receipts for tomor
row and in sympathy with wheat. May
opened 56%a%c.; sold between 56% and 55%;
closing at 56—unchanged to %c. lower
thah yesterday. Cash corn was firm.
• Oats opened fairly strong on the
strength in corn and lighter receipts than
was expected. Free selling by elevator
people; however, caused the market to easo
off. Later, on good general buying, es
pecially, by the outside, assisted by the
strength" In corn, the market closed steady
at about the top prices. May closed %c.
higher than yesterday. Cash oats were
firm. Offerings -were light and there^wos
a good demand. Prices %c. higher.
Provisions opened easier on free offer
ings and temporarily lower prices were
expected. Later the offerings were smaller
and a steadier feeling prex-alled with
good genral buying, specially from the
country, and prices ruled higher on all
the leading articles and closed steady.
January pork closed 10 cents higher; Jan
uary lard 5 cents higher and January ribs
2% cents higher.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

LAMSON’S GRAIN LETTER.
Cpeclal Wire to Lyons & James.
Chicago, Sept. 12.—The speculative In
terest in wheat was very dull and unin
teresting, opening rather firm at a slight
irlvance over the close of yerierday, but
declined %c. on the lower cables and lib-
eral receipts at primary, the market ral
lied a nttle on the shipments of about
200,000 bushels from here and report of
twenty-nine boat loads taken at New York
for export, with the light estimated re
ceipts tomorrow. Which would Indicate a
filling in deliveries. The rally was quite
feeble with nothing new in sight to en
courage the holders. A report that 450,030
bushels of wheat was shipped from Chili
an ports to New York caused some com
ment, but of course could cut no ilgure
In prices, as the import duty In this
country and the Liverpool prices that
prevail for Chilian wheat would dissolve
the absurdity of the report. Iowa states
crop report, putting the general average
of fodder and grain at CO per cent., was
among the depressing features. Towards
the close the market firmed to 56c. for May
com.
Oats were firm at the opening with
prides xt about fast night's close. Consid
erable buying for outside accojnt and of
ferings being somewhat timid, prices at
the close showed a slight gain to holders.
The small arrivals, together with the bght
estimate of 110 cars for tomorrow, held
the market firm throughout the entire ses
sion.
