MEMPHIS. TENN. September 9, 1901
MONEY.
There are no new or interesting fea-
lures to report to-day. The demand for
accommodations at the banks and on the
streets is increasing. Rates are about
as reported yesterday. Exchange is
quiet and irm-at par buying, and lc.
premium selling, with slight increase
in the offerings of cotton bills. Scrips
and stocks of all kinds are quiet and UNI
changed; county warrants are pur-
chased at 5000, and sold at 7l@72i
city scrip is bought at so, and city bonds
at 49@5O; Bank of Tennessee money is
purchased by dealers at 20 and sold at
72. Gold. opened in New York at ll33,
and was steady at that premium until
noon. Governments opened irregular at
about the closing rates of yesterday.
Railroad shares were steady, with more
activity manifested.
The total sales yesterday were 275
bales. The sales to noon to-day EN-
braced 10 bales at prices more in favor
of buyers, several of whom we're upon
the market buying for the New York
and Liverpool markets. Middlings we're
disposed of at l7i@l72c-l8c was re-
ported for a small lot of bang-up. Trans
actions in low middlings were reported
at from l7@l7lc and ordinary at l5ac,
while lower grades were not in request.
The New York market opened quiet at
l9bc for middlings. The Liverpool mar
ket opened dull, with sales estimated at
5000 bales, at Old for uplands and 9!d
for Orleans.
Norton, Slaughter & Co. circular, just
issued, says:
The total receipts at all the ports now
show the aggregate amount of the crop
to be over three and a quarter millions
of bales, taking into account the cotton
shipped overland to the Northern mills,
and that consumed in the South The
figures are, of course, subject to revision
and correction, which will be done
before the first of October, at which
time we shall be able to report them ex-
actly. They are at present not far out
of the way The following table shows
the quantity of cotton in sight at this
date, of each of the two past seasons:

but effective for all this class of disease,
and has never been known to fail. Ye
who pine upon the brink of the grave
