Morning News Office, Aug. 23.
The downward tendency In the turpen
tine market continues to be the feature
in local business circles. During the past
week the market has lost 3% cents, drop
ping from 39% to 36, the closing price at
the Board of Trade to-day. The price is
he ng pulled down by heavy receipis, and
a lack of demand from any source. Af
ter to-day's closing factors felt confident
that a check was in sight. Unless there
is an unexpected increase in the demand
it is not explain and how this will come
about, since there is no indicaticn of an
immediate lessening in the receipis. Ros
ins closed firm at an advance of 5 cents
on G and below as the outside price.
The cotton market closed steady and
unchanged, with a limited demand pre
vailed. For the past few days there
was a fair demand for cotton for August
delivery, but since this has been about
supplied, i here will probably not be a
great deal doing jan'il buyers enter the
market fer cotton for September deliv
ery. Reports of rains during the day had
a good effect. These were mostly in the
Carolinas. The wholesale markeia closed
steady. The fol.owing resume of the dif
ferent markets will show the tone and
quotations at the close to-day:
COTTON.
The cotton market closed steady and un
changed to-day, with a limited demand for
immediate cotton. It is said the greater
.part of the demand for August cotton has
been about supplied, so that what trans
actions are now being made, or soon will
he made, will be for September delivery.
Sales of 80 bales were reported at the Cot
ton Exchange. For a time there was a
pretty sipirted demand, but this seems to
have been supplied. The trade look for
a big demand from interior mills this sea
son, though it is not generally believed
t?hy will enter with the rush they did last
season. The day’s receipts were 393
bales. The stock is 7,390, against 12,182 last
year.

Points.
New York, Aug. 23.—Cotton futures
opened steady at an advance of seven
points and a decline of two and four
points on other positions, and pursued an
irregular course, within a narrow range
of variations, with the advantage most
of time on the side of the shorts, follow
ing yesterday's showers, most heavy in
North Carolina. Mississippi and Arkansas,
and comparatively scant in South Caro
lina, and Northern Georgia. A rather
weak feeling prevailed, having its first
effect in Liverpool and in turn produc
ing an easier feeling here, chiefly under
♦he pressure of further selling by outsid
er After the opening of the market
there was an advance of eight points on
covering, followed by a break of ten points
on further reports of rain In the central
and eastern sections of the belt. At noon
a net loss of four to six points was ap
parent with subsequent changes unimport
ant. and trading very slack. 'lncreased at
tention was given to the receipts which,
while rather larger, are behind the move
ment for a year ago. The crop news was
too mixed for confident action on the part
of any clusw of trader* and the volume
oi to-day's Jiusineas was very small, with
the market Anally quiet in tone at four to
seven points net lower.

COTTON LETTERS.
New York, Aug. 23—Murphy hk Cos say:
Cotton in Liverpool advanced l-16d on
spots. Futures closed at a net decline of
about 3-64d and sent orders here to sell
new crop deliveries, owing to yesterday’s
advices of scattered rain. To-day's re
ports over the belt show further rain in
the drought sociions, but the trade don't
se'm to regard it as general or enough to
relieve the situation. The Sou:h sold. Not
much detsire to sell here. Locals inclined
to buy on the decline.
New Yor, Aug. 23.—Hubbard Bros. &
Company say: Showers fell • over
the cotton belt yesterday being heaviest
in Arkansas. Mississippi and North Car
olina and lightest in Northern Georgia
and South Carolina. The effect of these
showers was to cause a weaker market
In Liverpool and a slow decline here. Our
local traders do not consider the rains
have been heavy enough to relieve
drought In the northern portions of Ten
nessee, Alabama, Georgia and South Car
olina. There has been little pressure to
sell except from the South, as the local
trade are afraid of the. short side after
the recent sharp advance and desire to
know more regarding the effect these
rains have had. They have so
far only stopped any revival in speeula
tioned based on a drought, but do not en
courage any bearish view amongst the
trade. Outsiders are more inclined to sell
than to buy on trade conditions.
NAVAL STORES.
Thursday. Aug. 23.
SPIRITS TURPENTINE.— Following a
firm opening to-day the turpentine market
dropped from 36% cents to 36 cents, at
which the situation was firm. The extent
of the present downward tendency is be
ginning to open the eyes of the trade,
who did not expect when it set in that
prices would yield to such an extent
before striking bottom. Buyers are not
disposed to enter a declining market ex
cept to satisfy urgent requirements until
they are satisfied prices are going no low
er. It is probable they will hesitate in
buying until conditions are more settled,
or the end of declines are in sight. The
day’s receipts were 1,469, sales 84 at the
opening at 36% and 100 at the cloeing at
36 cents, and the exports none.
ROSlNS.—Rosins showed more strength
to-day than yesterday, and as a result
grades O and below were marked up 3
cents as the outside price. It was stated
the market was pretty firm at the ad
vance prices, and that they are apt to
be established. The day's receipts were
3,665, sales 2,981, and the exports none.

THE RICE MARKET.
The rice market continues devoid of
special feature*, still demand is steady,
sizable and seasonable. As usual at this
period, operations are restricted and pur
chases only from hand to mouth to meet
immediate requirements. Japan and Java
command the larger share of patronage.
Under light stocks and enhanced cost
abroad prices are firm with upward ten
dency. Advices from the South note slug
gish movement. The markets are illy sup
plied and prices prohibitive of trade, ex
cept within a small radius about each
of the respective milling centers. “New
crop” (Louisiana) Is coming forward in
a limited way, but as yet plays no impor
tant part In the general demand. There
is a manifest desire to possess some of
the ''new'' as a sort of an "ad.,” hence
the small offerings of well-cured, sound
parcels find ready sale at full prices.
Cables and correspondence from abroad
note steady movement, prices strong and
tendency upward. Receipts continue far
short of last year; stocks at all points
light, and outlook favoring high range of
prices for some Hme to come.

Business on ’Change Not on n Very
Large Seale.
New York, Aug. 23.—Business on the
Stock Exchange to-day was again of small
proportions. Some irregularity occurred in
the movement of prices and net changes
showed about an even distribution of
small gains and. losses. Special movements
were under way in individual stocks, but
their tendency exercised no effect on Ihe
general list. Stocks which have tended
upwards recently continued in that di
rection to-day, particularly Consolidated
Gas, New Jersey Central and St. Louis
Southwestern. The latter was bought on
reports of a passible dividend on the pre
ferred stock, but the common. 6hares also
rose a point. While no corroboration has
been made regarding ihe reputed deal in
New Jersey Central, that stock moved up
two points, but only retained a net gain
of % per cent. Baltimore and Ohio sym
pathized in the movement to the extent of
about a point, but did not hold the ad
vantage.
At no time during the day was there any
indication of strength In the Western
railroads, which were inclined to sag on
reports of damage to the corn crop in
Kansas. Liquidation developed in Amer
ican Ice on talk that interests Bald to
be connected with the property were dis
posing of their holdings. An. extreme loss
of 2% occurred, but almost a point was
recovered in the closing dealings. Arbi
trage houses ceased trading early, but sold
about 5,000 shares of various issues.
A bid of 2 per cent, was made for call
money late in the afternoon, but there was
no transaction at that rate. Business
throughout the day was at the recently
fuling figures of 1%@1% per cent.
Reductions In various grades of soft su
gars had no material effect on the price
of sugar stock, which figured for dealings
of less than 3,000 shares.
The foreign weekly bank statements
which were published to-day furnished
about the only news of importance. The
statement of the Bank of England com
manded the most attention, owing to the
recent relaxation of money and discounts
in London. Bullion holdings increased
$13,480,550 mainly through the receipt of
gold from here in connection with the
British exchequer loan. Loans, however,
decreased $7,085,000. The bank gained to
day $9,100,000 gold, comprising in part the
gold sent from here on Wednesday a week
ago. This amount does not figure in to
day's statement. The Bank of France
showing indicates now contraction in
credits is still followed. Note circulation
decreased $97,725,000 and loans were reduc
ed $1,550,000. Gold holding*, however, in
creased $2,240,000.
In the last half hour of business price*
yielded and the closjng was steady In tone.
The feature of the bond market to-day
was the heavy absorption of St. Louis
Southwestern first and second, which gain
ed 1 per cent. each. Other issue* were in
moderate demand and firm. Total sales,
par value, $1,205,000.
United State* government bonds were
unchanged.
The total sales of stocks to-day were 98,-
800 shares, Including New Jersey Central.
