Buyers of out-of-town houses are being pushed to find goods for deliveries ssked for by their firms, and they are kept hustling about the market for any spot goods that ap- pear.” New Orleans, Sept. 6.—Liverpool Is as expected and furnishes neither bullish nor bearish Influence. The market has advanced on wet map and the receipt of some unfavor able advices from Texas, although sen tlment has undergone but little change. A dispatch from Crockett, Houston county, Texas, says: "Cotton Is being picked out aod hauled to the gins very fast In this county now. The drop Is much shorter than was expected on account of the numerous rains and the ravages of the boll weevil. There will be no top crop of cotton In this county, and all cotton Is about matured now. The crop will practically all be out of the rtolds by the middle of October.” The western forecast Indicates tor western Texas fair wenther tonight and Fridav, and for balance part cloudy weather with probable scattered show-* ers In Louisiana tomorrow. Today’s map Is again cloudy and shows fairly general rains throughout. The continued rains In Texas will no doubt cause further reports of dete rioration to be received, In which event some Improvement In prices would probably occur. THE COTTON 8EED OIL MARKET.

Private Wire to Ware ft Leland. Chicago, Sept. 6.—Wheat market la Inclined to be little ateadler. Ranklln la about the best buyer of December wheat, with scattered selling of May by commission houses. Minneapolis stocks of wheat de crease 800,000 bushels for live days. A little buying of wheat, notably by a couple parties who sold at the close yesterday. Market tone barely steady. Situation continues heavy owing to the buying power not being gufflclent to absorb hedging sales, and wheat will probably drag lower yet. Langston started to sell December and the crowd wilted. Trade quiet. Logan has Just sold 100 May corn at 13 3-8c. Oats opened steady, with local par ties sslllng May. Buying mostly by commission houses. Trade rather light Light offerings In provisions. Mod erate buying of nearby options of lard by shippers. This would Indicate bet ter demand for cash lard. Trade light. The general crop report September 10 la to be Issued at 4 p. m. and will show the condition September 1 of corn, buckwheat tobacco. and pota toes, and the condition, when harvest ed, of spring wheat, oats, barley and rye. The Minneapolis flour output last week Increased 10,175 barrels, ths quantity turned out being 117,175 bar rels. This week the figures promise to be even smaller. -Not only were all the mllla Idle on Monday for Labor day, but qne or two less are In opera tion than a week ago. The output is likely to approximate 150,000 barrels. About all the mllla found trade In flour last week leaa favorable. Sales were smaller than In the preceding week and those made were usually in small lots. Private Wire to Glbert ft Clay. Chicago, Sept. 8.—Can eee nothing In tha situation to warrant changing our views on either grain or provisions. The market is heavy, due to absence of outside trade and fear of heavy run of aprlng wheat which, we believe, le hardly probable, aa the prevailing price la practically below the price id production. Would buy wheat now ana more on every soft epot. This le the third day of the break in wheat, and on general principle wa ought to have a rally. _ The Record-Herald says: "By a vote of 611 to 177 the Chicago board of trade voted down the proposition to reduce commission chargee. •Sales cash grain In Chicago were 175,000 wheat, 1*0,000 corn and 180.000 oate. The wheat includes 216,000 No. 3 hard to go east and 40,000 mixed lots to local mills.” Corn trade slow. Market a shade eaater. Weather and crop outlook beat Imaginable. Kldson good seller September wheat. There was good buying on tha decline of December by Ranklln and Kneeland. Provisions quiet and barely steady. \ Pit trade Inclined to sell, but any buy ing would change temper of crowd quickly.

By Private Leased Wire. ’ Chicago. Sept. 0.—Wheat bulla were a happy lot because of the reported takings of sixty boat loads, 480,000 bushels, for export. This caused the market to become firmer late, driving some of the shorts to cover. The close showed prices at 1-861-4 cent oft with reactions of 3-8c from the bottom. Corn was tame aa a pet fawn and It closed l-4c up to l-861-4c off. Oats un changed to 1-861-40 lower. Provisions were mainly easier. Primary receipts of wheat for the day. 608,000 bushels, and corn 672,000 bushels, compared with 761,000 bushels and 930,000 bushels, respectively, a year ago. Clearances from the seaboard were 375,000 bushels wheat, 11,390 bushel* corn and 69,000 bushels oats. Winnipeg receipt! of new wheat were liberal and the grading most excel lent Argentine shipments for the week are estimated by Broomholl at 800,000 bushels wheat and 2,000,000 bushels corn. Today's sales were 6,000 bushels No. 1 Northern wheat and 100,000 bushels corn; 60 loads wheat at seaboard. CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

New York, Sept. fi.—The professional traders saw fit to consider Secretary Shaw's action In facilitating gold Im ports dlsappointlng. and when the mar ket opened at advances over last night's close, they sold stocks In sufficient vol ume to cause some recessions in the first half hour of the trading. Here and there, however, there were some fairly aggressive buying by bull cliques, notably In the case of Amalgamated Copper and one or two other active stocks which tended to impart a rather strong tone to the general list, though the advances were not up to London's higher range. When the first call loan was made at 20 per cent, and then fell a few points, a fresh buying movement started, and led by Brooklyn Rapid Transit, there wer# numerous recov eries In prices. Reading soon ht t ame the leader, scoring a sharp advance which held the list. On the whole, the market, while active and in the main strong, showed a narrower distribution of business, always a symptom of the outside Interest In speculation. Sen • tlment was mixed, the money market continuing to be the principal deterrent to extensive committments on the bull side. At the sarno time, the stock mar ket gave every Indication that with a decline In tho interest rates, the pooli and cliques would not find it difficult to mark up prices and stimulate out side trading. The stock market opened generally hlgn- *r. galna over yesterday ranging up to H In St. Pan!.
