Jackets, Capes,
Dress Skirts.

Every Jacket in this store was
made to our special order. Ev-
cry Cape in this store was made
for us. They were made for us
by the best men in the country.
There's better work in them than
on the ordinary run of factory
garments.
They fit better and will
keep their shape better.
May be you think that because
our garments are the best they
cost more. On the contrary you'll
find our prices lower than
any in town, and it's easy to
tell why. Most merchants pay
for their Cloaks any time be-
tween Dec. 10th and April LIST.
We pay for ours on the day
they're received. That's why
Cloakmakers almost break their
necks in their anxiety to sell to us.
We get lowest prices, save all
discounts, and you save cor
respondingIy.

Chicago Change.

Chicago H., Aug. 3.-The absence of Eng fish cables-this being a holiday in that country-had the effect of emphasizing the dullnesS in the wheat market here today There was a burst of activity during the last half hour, prices at that time display ing quite good deal of strength. Septem- Der wheat opened at 5S40l5S3sc, sold be- tween 5S and 5S7sc, closing at 5S34c bid, Ac higher than Saturday. Cash wheat was ir- regular, closing firm.
 Corn was listless and dragging in it's &C., ton all through the session. September corn opened at 2414@24ssc, advanced to 25c, clos ing at 247s@25c. 1aQ3sc higher than Satur- day. Cash corn was weak and about Hc lower early, closing firm, relatively with the futures
 Oats were impressed by the feeling in oth- CT markets. Quite little steadiness was tions of weakening there was no hesitation in oats. Prices recovered further along in the session, likewise through sympathy. September oats closed a shade higher than yesterday. Cash oats were steady. old oats being a shade higher, but new, being of in- ferior quality, brought less.
 Provisions-Owing to the dulIness ruling in this market prices were saved from yio- lent fluctuations, but nevertheless the tone was early very weak. For while imme- diately after the opening there was a pre- tense of steadinesS, but it soon disappeared a sagging process setting in. Wheat was strong towards the close, and products sym pathized, recovering the previous loss. The hog market was irregular. September pork closed 21ac higher, September lard Dc higher and September ribs 71sG10c higher.
 Leading futures ranged as follows:

Suns Cotton Rev1ew.

New York, Aug. 3.-The Suns cotton re- view says: Cotton advanced 6 to g points, but reacted and declined, closing steady at a net decline of to points, with sales of 240, 700 bales.
 Today's features: Such a burst of activi- ty as attended the opening in cotton this morning has not been witnessed for some months past. Everybody wanted to buy and prices advanced rapidly. The feeling was decidedly bullish. Scores of damage reports had been received over Sunday and New Orleans sent buying orders. At the advance many operators took profits, and German houses also sold heavily. The im- provement was lost. and a sharp decline followed. The weather bureau reported good rains in sections of the south during the past forty-eight hours, and though they were by no means general, yet they caused many to sell. The heaviest rainfall was in Georgia and South Carolina, while in sections where moisture was badly need ed the precipitation was very light. In fact Texas was as dry and hot as eyer. But damage reports confined to be received, and though many believed they were grossly ex- aggerated, they induced renewed buying for New Orleans and local account, and prices rallied and recovered most of the loss Spot cotton here was more active, and the southern spot markets were steady and higher in some cases. Many operators be- lieve that the crop is in critical condition and that good general rains must be had soon to maintain the recent excellent crop prospects,

Cotton Letter.


 New York, Aug. 3.-(Special)-In the ab- sence of Liverpool cables our market was extremely sensitive today. There was @ brisk demand for cotton at the opening, and January sold on the call at ' cents. Rain reports from points in Mississippi and Georgia caused January to decline to 6S6 A renewed demand to recover shorts caused a reaction to 6.T. Just before the close the announcement of heavy rains at several places in Texas encouraged fresh selling, and January declined to 6S9@6.90, at which price it closed, with the tone steady. Prices in the immediate future will be ruled abso- lutely by the weather reports from the south, but whether the market should go up or down we believe that the injury which the crop has already sustained is too seri- ous and irreparable to justify any big break in values. We think we have already seen lower prices for the coming crop than we are likely to see again.

In Wall Street.

New York, Aug. 3.-The stock market to- day tame affair." the dealings footing up a little over 5000 shares, of which three stocks, Sugar, St. Paul and Manhattan, figured for 6, 400 shares. The movement throughout entirely professional. Lon don furnishes business to speak of, it having been Bank of England holiday, while home operators were inclined to go slow until the political situation is better understood. At the opening the market weakened under sales of St. Paul. This sell ing was attributed to the demoralization of rates in the west and had an adverse in fluence on the general market After the early decline. which ranged from 4 to IS per cent in the unusually active list and 211s per cent in Manhattan, the market inn proved slightly. Manhattan fell to .S5A, the lowest in years, and was the result of re-. iterated reports of decreased earnings and rumors of proposed reduction in dividends strengthened at the opening by the advance in certain grades of refined, but later on the stock fell from 104 to 1e2A and closed at 1032s.
