NEW YORK, Aug. 14.—Many of the railroad shares were under pressure at the opening of the stock market to-day. The tone was heavy, although some Is sues made good rains. Texas Company continued to climb, beginning % up. Wabash lost 1 point, selling at 4%. Chesapeake and Ohio declined %. Ca nadian Pacific began % lower, but at the end of half an hour had recovered and was % above Wednesday’s final. Among the other losses were: Western Union. %; Reading, %; Steel common, %; Union Pacific, %; Amalgamated Copper, %; Mexican Petroleum %, and Atchi son *4 Southern Pacific began Vi up. but lost At the end of 45 minutes, however, At the Start Traders Were Timid, but Expert Promise of Rains in West Causes Drop. NEW YORK, Aug. 14.—Good cables and absence of rains over the Texas belt, except at one or two places, re sulted in the cotton market opening steady to-day and first prices ranged from 1 point off to 5 points higher than Wednesday's final There was a little outside support, however^and the list being bolstered by buying from room shorts. This, coupled with, the Government re port on supply and distribution, which placed the number of cotton halos con sumed during July at 486,246 running bales, as compared with 467,000 bales in June. The report was considered bullish, but failed to stimulate any buying of consequence and the market developed a sagging tendency after the call, based on active selling. wlUch was encouraged by a New Orleans weather expert prediction of rains in the west ern belt within the next forty-eight nouse. loiter the selling became gen eral and by noon the decline aggre gated 5 to 11 points from the initial range. After the English market had re ported better cables than expected, price movement at the close showed a decline of 2 to 3% points from the previous close. Ring traders are persistent hears on the new crop positions, but thev are not heavy sellers, especially of August. Most of them seem to be waiting rains in the western belt before committing themselves to any great extent to the short side. But a world of cotton will fall upon the market If rains should come in the west. One thing that pre vents any material decline In prices Is that the feeling among the avenage trailer Is to the effect that the Clarke anti-option bill will he killed and that nothing along that line will be done at the present session of Congress. During the afternoon session the mar ket ruled rather dull and prices fluctu ated within a very moderate range. The trade was less aggressive and at Hie close the market was steady with prices at a net decline of 2 to 7 points from the closing quotations of Wednes day.

American Telephone and Tele graph climbed %, while fractional gains were also scored by United States Rub ber common and Erie. The curb was steady. Americans In London were firm. Westinghouse was one of the strong est features of the late trading, crossing 69 for a net goln of more than a point on the day. Union Pacific was % above the nooh price.

The market closed heavy. Govern ments unchanged; other bonds strong. The Chicago Inter Ocean says: “Better things are expected of the wheat market, and many bullish argu ments are put forth In favor of the maintenance of a gradual hardening of values, although the market Is not ex pected to run away. Traders who were In the pit said that the pressure from hedgers has become much lighter than the last few days-. It was largely a case of one bull taking 'the place of another In the com market yesterday. One of the most rampant bulls said that, while he helieves in higher prices, he expects a choppy market for the present.” mm* Chicago, raining. 70 degrees, heavy rain early; Minneapolis, raining. 70; Terre Haute, sprinkling, 75, heavy rain last night; Springfield, partly cloudy. 78, no rain; Peoria, cloudy, 80. .threatening; Omaha, clear, 84; Kansas City, clear, 88. no rain; St. Louis, clear, 80, • * • Bartlett.
