The Suns cotton review says: Futures
opened al last nights prices, closing very duil
at = points advance on August and generally
unchanged from yesterdays closing prices
There was hardly a market to-day. Liverpool
was closed and our cotton exchange might as
well have suspended business likewise for the
pit was almost des rted. There was nothing
from amy quarter that was calculated to have
animportant effect upon values The weather
reports from the south were generally good ex-
cept from Western Texas. Cotton on spot

| CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-In wheat the trading was
! active aud prices higher. 1t was surprise to
| most operators, and the feeling was very I'M
settled. The opening was &c higher then
eased Off slightly, but the market soon de-
veloped strength, and with slight fluctuations
advanced &c, eased Off some, and closed lac
higher for September and 21Sc higher for De
cember than the closing figures of yesterday
| The sharp advance in wheat was rather a
mysi cry, and the reason assigned therefor was
the advance in corn, hot weather in the north
west, aud the fact that operators got short on
the recent down turn. In corn there was a
heavy trade. very nervous feeling prevailed,
though on the whole the market was stronger
and higher prices rule. The advance was due
| TO reports of dry and hot weather. Light rains
! We're said to have fallen in Western Iowa and
Nebraska but the weather was hot and clear in
Missouri, Kansas and Eastern Nebraska The
market opened 1140119c better than the closing
| prices yesterday, was easy for a short time
selling Off a 02c but soon ruled stronger and
