that this condition Is due In large part to
a restriction of production consequent on

Sellers suspected, nnd Its force lias been
felt because the demand for goods has

Liverpool cables: "Streugtb is due to

All Price brokers are good buyers, . _ _

In view of the unfavorable Texas

PRIMARY MOVEMENT.
THE COFFEE MARKET.
New York, Bcpt. 4.-.The coffee market
opened nt a decline of 6 to 16 points In re-
sponso to lowrar cables and the continued
absence of news regarding the progress of
valorisation. Receipts continued large, nnd
while the fact that Karl Krtecbo attempted
no estimate of the Brasilian receipts for
September was probably due to uncertainty
over the effect or valorisation developments,
there were many who beU*vc.l that It re
flected the probability of an abnormally

New York, Sept. 4.—The market thU
morning was again subjected to th*
conflicting forces of a violent specula
tion. Some fairly sensational gain*
were made In particular stocks, and
taking the list as a whole, all advances
were more numerous than declines. But
the movement after the first few min
utes of an excited opening, was ex
tremely Irregular, and in many quar
ters‘profit taking sales, conducted un
der cover of the great strength In the
day’s leaders, was fully a match for
the new buying orders. There was
every reason to believe that the Lon
don market had been "rigged” for a
speculative opening here. On buying
orders cabled from this side and dur
ing the holiday prices were held up
over our high points. This led the is
sue anticipated In a furious rush of
buying at the start of the local trad
ing. The Pennsylvania’s announcement
of the sale of half of Its Baltimore and
Ohio and Norfolk and Western hold
ings caused an exceptionally active
•peculation In all three stocks. But
the extreme stiffness of the money rate
—call loans touching 9 1-2 per cent—
and the publication of the subtreaaury
statement showing that the banks have
lost In two days only more than $:»,-
000,000 took the keen edge off specula
tion enthusiasm and for the rest of the
morning realizing sales were as much
In evidence as fresh operations for the
rise.
