fractional gains were scored by Amalga

up while Amalgamated rose With
the resumption of business on the London
market Canadian Pacific sustained a hull
movement which caused that Issue to open
here at 273 Hi. against a gain of L 1 over
Saturday's close.
Changes in the prices of the usually
active stocks were without much choice

COTTON
NEW YORK. Aug 24 Steady rabies
and absence, of rain in Texas caused the
cotton market to open unchanged to 6
points higher today. The market was
quiet. During ftie first 15 minutes of trad
ing was almost entirely local and re
vealed little tendency either w r ay.
After rhe call the market was dull and
featureless and prices in most active pdai
. tions lost 7 to 9 points. Later, however,
the weather map indicated some disturb
ance which caused some hesitancy among
traders to sell and prices showed a tend
ency to rally a few points.
The market became dull and less at
tractive during the late trading of the
short session Pell interests and other in
terests were said to be free sellers
throughout the day The buying was of
a general character and prices were firm
ly’ maintained around last night’s closing
figures. At the close the market was
steady with (October contracts 11.28,
against 11 19 a week ago. while December
