The Galveston excursionists are
still arriving by every train coming

Sulphur river will soon be in

Some are disposed to laugh at the
idea Of transporting goods via Sui

will be done if any effort at all is
made. Poking fun at an enter

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

New York, Aug. THE failure
of Moore Brothers, of Chicago, was a
complete surprise to Wall street, and
was at first assumed to include the
collapse of the Diamond Match Compa-
nv and the New York Biscuit Company.
which had been promoted by the firm.
The sensational character of the fail
ure and the unusual step saken of
closing the Chicago stock exchange
pending a reimbursement, led the fin
'ancial community at large to expect
some startling disclosures. 1t was fear
ed that the New York city banks
might be involved as holders
Of collaterals, and that also wholesale
liquidation in the Changers and other
shares might result. Lower Lodon
cables previous to the opening also
created an unfavorable impression,
Accordingly there was a rush to sell

COTTON CROP REPORT.

Memphis, Tenn, Aug 1.-THE regu-
lar monthly cotton crop report for the
Memphis district, to be published to-
morrow by Hill, Fountaine & Co., will
say in part:
The weather during July was in the
main unfavorable. Towards the close
of the month the temperature became
abnormally high and heated spell
set in, the duration Of which has never
before been experienced in this sec
ton. This caused wholesale shedding
of squares and young bolls and ia
nearly every section of the district the
plant is reported suffering from blight
and rust.
The damage by States is as follows:
Arkansas, "a 10 per cent; Mississippi
221e; Alabama, 1919; Tennessee, 11M.
If the present spell OF weather con-
tinues for ten days longer the damage
will be in the nature of great dis
aster
Many fields are now white with cot
ton, the heat having prematurely
forced the bolls and picking will begin
by August 18th, and become general
ten days later, which is a month earlier
than last year.
The corn crop has suffered greatly
from drought and the yield will not
exceed half an average crop.

the first fifteen minutes the market
was demoalized under liquidation
bear offerings and sales for foreign ac-
count. The situation was aggravated
by expectations of a sharp advance in
rates for money and commercial paper.
In the time specified declines were
recorded all along the line with the
Changers the favorite object of at
tack. The selling pressure abated lat
er, and sharp rallies occurred ON a
clearer understanding of the situation.
Leading bankers were heard from to
the effect that the New York institu-
tions were not involved. and Chicago
dispatches were received reporting
that measures had been taken to sup
port the stock of the Diamond Match
Company, and quoting prominent cap
italists as saying that the trouble
would be over within a comparative
~ short time. The market became
extremely dull at the recovery, owing
to the continued depressing effect of
the railroad rate disturbances, disap-
pointing traffic returns and eXpccta-
tons of poor exhibits yet to be pub
lished. As the day progressed frac-
tional variations either way occurred
frequently as n result of trading OPP
erations. Around delivery, however,
there was stiffening in prices in
which Sugar touched to ~ and sew
eral attained the bestprices of the day.
The closing was irregular and at a
net decline of 1 to 2 per cent, in the
leading shares.
The railway bond market was dun
with sagging tendency. The sales
were $47S.000.
Governments were dun but lower,
on sales of $4,000 in silver certificates;
$4,000 brought 60.

HUBBARD BROS. g. CO.'S LETTER.
New York, Aug. 4.-(Special)- THE
district suffering from the extreme
heat and drought was without relief
this morning, either from cooler
weather or rain. In southern Texas
showers were reported, but in northern
Texas the heat was still intense. Crop
advices from these sections are fortified
by the report of the weather bureau
at Washington, which states that the
heated term has been the most severe
known in many years. Opening lower,
the decline was quickly recovered and
the market again touched about the
highest point. Receipts are increasing
and the local trade rather expects the
incoming cotton to weigh upon prices,
Notwithstanding the bad crop advices
which are coming to hand from the
southwest, but our cabIegrams state
that Manchester spinners are short
and seem nervous over the bad crop
accounts from the Mississippi Valley.
In answer to our improvement of the
morning, Liverpool sent buying orders
to this market and it was the execution
these orders which closed the market
steady at about the best price of the
day. They apparently DO not con-
slider the advance over or they would
not have been buyers.
