in tone with price* on near months two
to four points higher following a firmer
ruling of English markets than discounted
snd a continuation of abnormally light
receipts at Interior towns and the ports.
The far months on the other hand, opened
two points lower under brisk general sell

Atlantic stale* drought had been broken
by drenching rains, the latter being ex
ceptionally heavy In the Carolinas After

COTTON LETTERS.
New York, Aug, 21.—Murphy & Cos. say:
Cotton advices from Liverpool to-day
were quite favorable, but our market did
not respond, in fact it eased off after the
opening, owing to the absence of support,
and ruled quiet for a time, but heavy
buying set in, which, with some shorts
covering and dry weather, led to a sharp
advance. Large offerings of January and
December delivery at 8% cents were ab
sorbed. Memphis wires dry, hot weath
er continues, crop deteriorating rapidly.
Our advices from South Carolina and
Arkansas are quite unfavorable; rain
badly needed.
The details of the bureau report are
quite unfavorable and point to a lower
condition during August in its publication
on Sept. 10. The decrease last year was
16 points, on account of dry weather pre
vailing during August and the condition.
September loth, was given as 6.85c 1 , a de
cline of 7.5 points. This month would
moke condition same as a year ago. and
be considered as a bullish feature, as a
crop of 10,000,000 minimum is deemed
necessary. Our private advieef confirm
government report and on any further de
cline we prefer the long side, as the mar
ket is oversold.
New York. Aug. 21.—Hubbard Bro. &
Cos. say: Liverpool response but feeble
to the strength of our market, which was
due to local buying in anticipation of a
poor bureau report to-day. When the re
port was read it was not as poor as the
traders had anticipated and on realizing
the market broke below last evening's
close. It is, however, a poor report end
when the realizing was over the market
promptly rallied. Local rains in the At
lantic states were predicted by the gov
ernment for to-day and to-morrow but
these predictions have been so wrong that
the tmde place little confidence in them.
The temper of the trade is buy cotton on
each weak spot until heavy rains fall
sufficient to relieve the crop throughout
the eastern cotton belt.
DRY' GOODS.
New Y’ork, Aug. 21.—Business in heavy
brown cottons continues slow, and prices
are irregular, but not lower than yester
day. No export demand of any moment.
Fine brown cottons dull and print cloth
yarn inactive. The demand for bleached
cottons and wide sheetings is for small
quantities only at previous prices. Den
nlms and other coarse colored cottons
slow. Prints are in quiet request and
fancies slill Irregular. No change in ging
hams.

STOCKS, AND RONDS.
Movement# of InduKtrlnl* the Inci
dent ot the Day.
New York, Aug. 21.—The stock market
was narrow to-day, the only incidents of
note being the movements of certain In
dustrials. The opening was easy on Lon
don’s weakness. Sugar was depressed on
the strength Of a reduction in coffee
prices which was taken to Indicate a pos
sible resumption of the trade war in su
gar, despite the recent maintenance of
similar prices with consumers. The stock
went off % points on the offering of some
large amounts. A continuance of the. re
cent hears’ campaign against Peoples
Gas accounted for its point fall. Small
declines in railroad stocks were in sym
pathy with London and reports of unfa
vorable conditions in crop districts.
Business was only moderate during the
selling and a* liquidation was not forced,
the shorts commenced to cover. Before
the forenoon expired prices began (o im
prove and there were indications of con
fident buying in spots. Rallies were most
pronounced in the stocks which had suf
fered most earlier, and the general level
was lifted above last night. Conspicuous
strength was shown by Brooklyn Transit.
Manhattan, and Consolidated Gas, the
latter rising 2% per cent, from the lowest.
New Jersey. Central then assumed a com
manding position in the market, rising 3%
per cent, to 137% which ie a record price
in Its recent upward movement. Revived
reports were current of Its probable ab
sorption by the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road in the interest of the Pennsylvania,
the latter being credited with the domi
nant influence in the management of the
Baltimore and Ohio. No corroboration- of
the report whs had up to the close of
business nor of the statement that an ad
vance in coal prices was imminent. Co
incident with the high price registered for
New Jersey Central, the July statement
of earnings of the road were reported
showing a decrease of only *3,104, but a
reduction in net of *26,830. This showing
and realizations forced the stock off to
131 at the close. Reading first preferred
was the only other coaler to show any re
flection of the movement in Jersey Cen
tral, the stock rising 1% and retaining
the gain.
While the. speculation In these stocks
was being carried on the general list
was largely neglected and showed no in
clination to rise above the level record
ed about noon. This circumstance caused
small offerings all around In the final
hour and the market yielded, closing easy
In tone, with net changes generally o
small fraction either way.
A feature of the closing dealings was
the rapid advance of 3% points In St.
Joseph and Grand Island first preferred
which was unexplained. London oper
ations in this market were unimportant,
but consisted of sales of a few thousand
shares on balance. Monetary conditions
abroad showed a further relaxation, dis
counts ot London declining and exchange
oi London at cdntinental points also yield
ing.
In the local money market rates were
unruffled with borrowers described as be
ing In an Independent position.
Business in bonds and
there was an active demand for S*. Louis.
