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.

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.

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: FUTURE QUOTATIONS. WHEAT— Open High Low Clos. CASH QUOTATIONS. Flour steady at unchanged prices. No. 2 spring wheat, 54%a55%. No. 2 red, 54%. No. 2 corn, 67%a5S. No. 2 oats, 31a%. Pork. Il4.45a57%. Lard, *9a9.02%. Short rib sides, ¥7.87%a8.

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.
