COTTON! LETTERS.
New York. Aug. 28.—Murphy & Cos. say
The cotton advices from Liverpool to-day
were about as expected. Our market has
been very narrow this afternoon, with an
almost total absence of outside business.
The bureau’s weekly weather report, to
be published this afternoon, is awaited
with interest. Rains have had in
Georgia, Arkansas and Mississippi, where
they will be beneficial. The Carollnas,
however, still need a good soaking rain.
Our advices from Louisiana this morning
are of a favorable character. The crop is
generally believed to be about two w’eeks
late. Movement of new cotton is increas
ing somewhat. Conservative interests are
disposed to wait for more information on
the prospects of average crops as quite
short interest still exists.
As some professional operators bought
freely just before the report was read,
the impression prevails that it was known
by a favored few. and as the tenor of is
summary was very much worse than ex
pected, this market advanced 10 points on
rather general buying, fearing foreign
markets may regard it seriously.
New York, Aug. 28.—Hubbard Bros. &
Cos. say: Liverpol rallied sharply in an
ticipation of a poor bureau report to-dav,
and maintained the advance to the close.
As our improvement of yesterday was
based upon the probability of ihis report
being unfavorable, the market did not
respond immedilately to the favorable for
eign advices. On the publication of the
report the market advanced quick*}-,
though the trade regard it as exaggerat
ed, and not representing the beneficial
effect of the recent rains. They look for
the report to bring in buying orders from
Europe, and attract outside speculation.
Little is said about the recent rains, which
experience has always shown to be bene
ficial when falling in the last week of
August.

Price* in Final Dealing* Drop, Mak

New York, Aug. 28. The accumulation
of a short interest during the steady de
cline which had continued for rather more
than a w r eek offered an opportunity to
day for a turn by the bulls against the
bear Interest. The demand from shorts
proved sufficient to check the declining
tendency, which was in evidence in the
early dealings, and to bring prices back to
about iast night’s level. There the recov
ery stopped and prices dropped again in
the final dealings, making the close heavy.
The market continued exceedingly nar
row and the volume- of business fell be
low* yesterday’s 200,000 share level. The
bulls found muterial for their brief turn
in the railroad earnings reported for the
day, in a reversal of the discouraging tei or
of yesterday’s rumors regarding the sugar
trade and in the declaration of a semi
annual dividend of 2 per cent, on the pre
ferred stock of Chicago, Indianapolis and
Louisville. The bulls made the most of
the incident and put the preferred stock
up 4Vfc points and the common 1%.
There was continued pressure against
Sugar in the opening trading.but the stock
railied 1% on a correction in the European
sugar cables, showing a rise instead of a
decline in the price of raw sugars. This
was taken to show that American refiners
were again in the market as purchasers of
raw sugar, and to indicate that the season
of active business for refining would ex
tend beyond the usual time this year.
Rumors were circulated that in conse
quence the dividend on Sugar would be
increased, but the demand for Sugar cer
tificates was satisfied with the covering
of the short interests and the stock closed
with a gain of only 1%.
The statement for July of the Atchison
System was also made the most of by the
bulls. Net earnings increased more than
one4hird over those of last ye3r, notwith
standing a slight increase in operating
expenses, compared with a decrease in
operating expenses for several months
past. The Anthracite coalers, showed some
heaviness on fears of labor troubles.
American Hoop preferred weakened sharp
ly, but the iron and sieel stocks generally
were pretty steady on the favorable re
ports of the trade outlook. Brooklyn
Rapid Transit advanced on covering, but
eased oft ai the last. There were wide
movements in a few Individual stocks,
which were unexplained by any news.
The money matket continues to benefit
by the redemption of the United States
extended 2s and by some receipts of gold
from the Pacific coast. Rates were not
quotably changed. Discount rates har
dened in London, while s'eriing exchange,
nevertheless, continues easy, as was the
case yesterday. This contradictory move
ment caused some puzzled ronjetcurea in
exchange circles. The volume of merchan
