COTTON LETTERS.
New York, Aug. 30.-Murphy & Cos. say:
otton market ruled quiet and easy this
morning, particularly for August delivery,
inis is the last trading day in that month,
and locals sold freely. Liverpool advices
are about as expected, but good rains in
North and South Carolina made bears
more aggressive. Liverpool bought here,
but trading has been on rather a small
ccale. The market seems to be in a wait
ing attitude and no great change in prices
is looked for ponding the holidays, still
on each show of weakness a good demand
develops. Conservative interests appear
to favor the long side.
New York. Aug. 30—Hubbard Bros. *
Cos. say: European advices were of a dis
appointing character to-day, showing a
decline under limited offerings from Amer
ica when the trade expected there woul.l
be no difficulty toplacing the offers at full
quotations. Showers are again re|>orted
in the Atlantic states, and also predicted
for to-morrow. While the approaching
holidays are near, the traders are not dis
posed to enter into any new’ contracts un
tif the situation becomes more clear. The
poor crop reports of last week coming
when the private advices reported good
rains were such a surprise that the senti
ment here has become adversed to lower
prices, despite the absence of any outside
business.
DKY GOODS.
New York. Aug. 30.—Business continues
goo<J with jobbers, but quiet at lirst
hands. Brown sheetings and drills firm
for forward delivery, but irregular for
stock goods. Print cloths inactive. Fall
river mills signing an agreemenUio re<luee
wages and may continue curtailment of
production. Bleached cottons dull and un
changed. Moderate demand for denims
and plnids al previous prices; other coarse
colored goods ore dull and irregular.
Print cloths at present prices. No change
in ginghams. Cotion linings are dull
throughout and easy to buy. The market
will generally observe Saturday as a hol
iday,
THE RICE MARKET.
In Louisiana, receipts of new crop are
scarcely equal to last year, but are in ex
cellent condition. Insuring a more liberal
supply of choice sorts. Offerings have
been quickly absorbed, and while receipts
will enlarge, yet the demand for “just a
taste” of the new crop is far from being
satisfied; in fact, only a beginning has
hern made. The New Orleans market as
yet offers only the extremes of high and
low, with a scarcity of medium grades,
w'hich latter cover the bulk of the distrib
uting trade. This demand is being met by
foreign sorts, uniform, safe to handle, and
of known excellence, and of which there
is only a limited supply.
With light stocks of foreign and domes
tis in every department of the Industry,
from miller to retailer, the new' crop en
ters the field under exceptionally favor
able auspices, and if wisely handled, the
present season promises to be the “ban
ner "year” in the history of the product.
Cables and correspondence from abroad
note quiet conditions. Amount afloat en
route for English and continental parts Is
barely 30 per cent, of last year equal date.

STOCKS AND BONDS.
Trading for the Day Did Not Xssunie
Large Proportions.
New York. Aug. 30.—Tue early promise
of strength in the stock market to-day
was not maintained nnd after a brief pe
riod of some activity and firmness prices
began to decline again, and the trading
tapered down to the insignificant propor
tions which have become the recent nor
mal. The traders rightly concluded that
this indicated that yesterday's advance
was due to nothing more than a cover
ing of short contracts pending the ap
proaching three days' holiday.
The steel group especially disappointed
the hopes that a bull movement was un
der way, by developing heavy tone, steel
and wire falling back over a point. The
American Tin Plate and American Hoop
stocks were exceptions and show good
gains for the day. There was no means
to account for the relapse in the group,
the reports at hand showing a growing
demand for many grades of iron products
There was a desultory speculation in su
gar. which lifted it at one time over a
point after the announcement was made
of an advance in the price of refined su
gar. But the gain was almost entirely
wiped out by the time the market closed.
Strength in the London market helped
the opening here, causing sharp fraction
al gains In a number of the international
stocks, but London reacted later in the
day and those stocks lost their advant
age in sympathy.
The railroad statements for July which
appeared to-day counteracted the favora
ole effect of yesterday's showing by the
St. Paul company, the higher level of op
erating expenses serving to bring down
the net earnings in the cases of Burling
ton, Northern Pacific and Southern Rail
way while Cleveland. Chicago, Cincinnati
and St. Louis saved only a small part of
its gross increase for net earnings. The
explanations which were offered of the
heaviness of stocks formed substitutes for
news to some extent. For instance, there
was some renewed solicitude expressed
regarding the future money market. The
fact that the Bank Of England had again
offered interest on gold in transit gave
ground for the expectation that the ex
port movement of gold may shortly be re
nt wed. Sterling exchange rose a fraction
in hft'W York nnd three months bills in
London were advanced.
The London market apprehends some
stringency as an incident of the next
stock exchange settlement and the pay
ment of the next Installment on the new
loan which comes about the middle of -o
month. In the pessimistic mood of the
Iccal market the possibility was suggested
that the treasury department might be
obliged during the early fall to draw on
Its depositß with the national banks in
cider to meet extraordinary expenditures
for military operations. There was noth
ing in the day’s money market to give
color to any apprehension of higher rates.
The banks have gained upwards of $2,000,-
000 from the sub-treasury and another
substantial Increase in reserves ie Indi
cated for the week. The market closed
dull and heavy at a generally lower level
of prices.
Bonds were dull and irregular. Total
sales par value $1,175,000. United States re
fuoding 2s when issued, and the new 4s
declined 74 per cent, in the bid prices.
