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. The following were the official spot quo tations at the close of the market at the Cotton Exchange to-day: j This | East | day. | year.

The .Tone Quiet and Prices Off 4@T 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.

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 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. Talmage.

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. 6,120; St. Louis Southwestern, 6,445; do preferred, 6,490; Southern Pacific, 8,800; People’s Gas, 9,610.
