say of the cotton market: ''The Liverpool
market opened this morning with an advance
| of 164012-64d, lost it, and recovered 1t finally,
| closing barely steady at about point over last
| nights prices The stsadier finish was due to
| the failure Of this market to decline upon what
was considered q disappointing Liverpool re-
| port. Here opening prices wene only about
| point below last evenings figures, and during
| the forenoon sharp advance of points was
| established. which, however, before o'clock
| had been mostly lost. The market relapsed
| then into a condition Of dullness."

cited, crop news developing a genuine scare.
Wheat vent up in sympathy, closing &c higher
than last night. Corn gained 1880, oats l16c
| and pork zoe The corn market started with
| the trade nervous and prices up a half or more
4 over night on hot weather and hot winds, and
the talk on the curb last night and this morning.
| Some PONIES in Kansas had temperature OF
| about 1902 for little time yesterday
| and dispatches quickly raised the cry OF damage
| to corn. Kansas City messages this NOR ming
4 said the situation was growing daily worse. On
4 the early advance there was free realizing and
l drop of sc from the best prices all around
| The Price Currents comIpent WAS hearigh, say
l ing that the average was well maintained aud
| the prospect generally encouraging. Kansas
| dispatches received about noon, predicting only
half to three quarters of crop, caught the
| traders on the short side and sent
| prices up &e, where they remained
| Heavy business was transacted ip oats The
advancing tendency 60 conspicuous yesterday
| was continued. The cause for activity and ad-
| vance was liberal local and outside baying,
| parties who handle large quantities being heavy
| buyers Their purchases were based on the
| continued unfavorabe tone of crop reports
which are coming in from this state Iowa and
| all surplus oats states. Threshing returns are
| disappointing. Offerings we're not largo and
the demand so good that prices were kept on
the upward course the greater part Of the
day. In wheat a Hrmer feeling was
established. 1t was fairly active early and then
| dullness was followed by some activity The
| situation in provisions 8 a surprise to many
| who regarded the advance which started In
| few weeks ago temporary affair. The shin
ment OF meats, reduction of STOCKS, decrease In
| the movement of hogs, all continue beyond ex-
pectatons In addition to these influences the
| market had help to-day from very undecided
buying by shorts and additional buying by big
holders, who whore bulling the market, and
from grain markets, which we're excited and
higher. There was an advance from last night
at the best prices of about 22,4c In pork 1870
in lard and i2lSc in short ribs. The close was az
