Rise in Cotton and Foreign Exchange and
Prospective Heavy Specie Shipments.
A Strong Movement in Stocks and Fur
ther Advance in Prices.
A SHARP RISE IN GOVERNMENT BONDS
The Philadelphia Convention as an InAu-
ence Upon the Markets.
WALL STREET,

MONDAY, June SO r. M
On Change to-day -four continued weak, and the
market closed heavy. Wheat was dull and lower.
Cotton was excited and prices advanced to the
basis of 20 cents for low mddllngs.
FURRY IN MONEY.
The money market was easy and steady at 5 per
cent until the vicinity OF halfpast two O'Clock,
when the rate was bid up to per cent and as high
rs per cent paid for some small amounts The
Inquiry at the advance was only temporary,
lenders appearing in great numbers to take
advantage Of the higher rate and before
the close Of banking hours the market
settled back to per cent The activity, II such
1t may be called had this consistency that the gov
eminent dealers were unable to do better than 5
per cent in procuring loans. The movement was
Immediately changed to the clique operating for
lower prices on the Stock Exchange-an allegation
which its rapid subsistence partially confirmed On
the other hand, good parties believe that with the
present ruling quotations for stocks, as compared
with those of the winter the money market is
really hde-bound, and will so develop when called
upon to meet the demand in connection with the
wool clip and the transfer of money to the pOpu-
lous caravanseries at the watering places. Mercan-
tile paper is quoted about per cent for actual bust
ness in prime names.
ADVANCE IN FOREIGN EXCHANGE.
The leading bankers all advanced their rates for
slxty-day sterling, for which they now ask 1898.
This conclusion seems to have been derived from
contemplation Of the continued heavy import
movement as revealed in the Custom House figures
OF Saturday, and the scarcity Of bills drawn against
exports of merchandise, leaving RENTERS to look
to the bankers for exchange The sight rate is
1908, being only per cent in advance OF the sixty
day rate since the reduction of the Bank ofEngland
discount rate to per cent.
