New York, Aug. 16.—The cotton market opened quiet and steady with prices one point higher to four points lower end sank three to six points further under quite active selling of long cotton, pressure from the bear side and disappointing late cables from the English markets. The weaker ruling of sentiment was intensi fied by very hopeful weather reports from the Atlantic States where complaints of drought have recently appeared. The de pression was short lived, however, as the final cable* from Liverpool proved suffi ciently reassuring to create faith in them so far as room operators were concerned. Prices advanced rapidly on brisk general buying led by the shorts and houses with Liverpool connections. Toward midday, however, another weak spot came to light and with good weather predictions as a motive early buyer* hastily unloaded and short selling became something of a fea ture. During the greater part of the bal ance of the day the market was almost lifeless and pendulations favored neither faction specially. The crop reports were mixed to such a degree that few traders oared to come out openly on the bull or bear side while public speculators posi tively refused to venture In to the mar ket. The critical stage reached in the China situation increased the uncertainty all around. The spot markets of this country and Europe hold reasonably firm on light receipts, but were destitute of animation. In the last half hour the market broke under liquidation. At the close the mar ket ruled steady in tone with prices net four to nine points lower. FLI'CT PATIO NS !N FPTPHES.

New York, Aug. 16.—Murphy & Cos say: Cotton advices from Liverpool this morn ing were not very encouraging to the bulls and as the weather is clear is Texas and scattered rainfalls reported in Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina where need ed, this market opened easy and declin ed about 7 points around the opening. The South and local operators sold the market down, but New Orleans bought rather freely, which caused a reaction of ten points. The crop movements is very small, which also helps prices. It is an eratic market, depending upon the weather. Memphis continues sending unfavorable reports of drought and heat. The short interest is becoming unwieldy again and anv unfavorable news will lift prices. New York. Aug. 16.-Hubbard Bros & Cos. say: Liverpoool, after the opening, has been quite as nervous as our market cf yesterday, closing steady at a sharp ad vance on the nearby and an improvement on the late equivalent to an advance of yesterday. Here the market has followed the weather advices, opening easier on predictions of rains in Georgia, to rally on fear of further drought in the Atlantic states. Showery weather appears to be approaching that section. Local senti ment is in favor of the market, believing that despite any good crop reports the crop is so late that the light receipts will sustain prices. On this Idea the trade buy quick on every break, causing sharp ral lies, the weather predictions are for local rains in Mississippi. Alabama.and Georgia and should, if fulfilled, benefit the crop. DRY’ GOODS. New York, Aug. 16.—N0 improvement in home demand for brown sheetings and drills, prices continue irregular, and more doing lor export to markets outside ot China. Bleached cottons quiet but steady: wide sheetings dull. Coarse colored cottons slow and irregular. Prints in steady re quest for staples, but fancies slow. Print business in odd goodsshrdl s rhludvbg cloths inactive in regulars, and moder ate business in odd goods. No change in the market. RICE MARKET. Nothing of material Importance has oc curred during the past week in the rice market, and its record, in laconic phrase, would be, “sizable, steady demand at strong unchanged figures.” Everything conspires to conservatism; midsummer with its perils to the grain; light supply held at full values; all eyes fixed on new crop. Stock*, however, are generally light and the constant sorting up. even in lim ited way, make a weekly aggregate of no mean proportions. Fresent business P running largely on foreign and about evenly divided between its respective sorts. Advices from the south are of former tenor; seasonable inquiry at for mer prices. Receipts of the new crop con tinue small, and as yet not a factor in market. Cables and correspondence from abroad note firmer price*, and under shortening supply further advance is expected Talmage, New Orleans, telegraphs Loui siana crop movement to date: Receipts, rough, 8.595 sacks; last year, 47.900 sacks. Soles, cleaned, 400 barrel*: last year, 4,400 barrels. Market steady but dull. Talmage, Charleston, telegraphs Caro lina crop movement to date: Receipts, 83,376 barrels. Sales, 62,753 barrels.

Less than half of the recent ship ments of upward of $17,000,000 was re flected in the statement. The Bank of England* return showed an Increase In reserve ot $3,850,000 and bullion increased $2,156,920. These acquisitions caused more liberality to borrowers and loans increas ed $5,960,00(0. The bank gained on bal ance to-day on bullion transactions, $3,- 410,000. Its official rate of discount was maintained at 4 per cent., but the open marker rate fell to 3%. The showing of the lank of France was less marked in Its principal items than last week. Gold holdings Increased only $330,000, while loans were reduced $3,221,925 and circula tion shrank $3,000,000. As the rise in prices of stocks early to-day was maintained with difficulty, professional traders who have been Instrumental in the week's ad vance switched over to the srot side and let go their holdings. No Increase In outside business was re ported despite the apparent stability to the early movement in railroad stocks. This factor Influenced short sales by operators who consider the market top heavy. While there was but little energetic selling in any quarter, prices steadily receded and ended at the lowest. ■ The price lev! of th day, however, showed but few notable changes. Some wide movements were made in a few of the specialties, notably Sugar. Pacific Mail, Rubber and Consoli dated Gas. The latter covered a range of over 2 points, early strength being suc ceeded by a fall and a final rail}’ resulting In the announcement that the slock was to be restored to an 8 per cent, annual basis. Reports of a sever cut in prices of struc tural steel by independent concerns im parted heaviness to the steel group, which also felt the general selling of the day. Despite official denial* of the rumored deal by the Baltimore and Ohio to absorb the New Jersey Central Railroad the latter stock moved up a point at the outset but later lost the gain. Transactions In bonds to-day felt off Somewhat and the list showed irregular ity. Total sales, par value, $830.0110. United States government bonds were all % per cent, lower in the bid price.
