Birmingham, Ala, Aug. 23-The re-
Spouse of Liverpool this morning to the
advances made here Saturday, the buy
ing fever carried over from last week and
the newspaper reports regarding the
strong situation existing everywhere
and the opinion of grain men generally
that the advance is legitimate and war
ranted, created bullish feeling before the
opening and the curb prices for Septen-
Der were quoted as high as 1929. 1t is
very apparent, however. from the OPEN
ing on the exchange and the quick de-
cline which followed that numerous hold
ers came down this morning with the in
tention of selling out, expecting to find
a stiff demand to take care of their offer
ing, but dollar wheat is somewhat of a
novelty now and spectators We're few
and far between who were willing to
pay that price after so much advance, in
fact the tendency seemed to be to sell
short, the result being that offerings
found rather weak market, and 95 cents
was quickly marked, against an opening

in very quick order. Final figures, how
ever, show net loss for the day of about
S1s cents per bushel, which is likely to
bring lower cables in the morning.
Liverpool today cleared all the way
from to cents per bushel higher than
last week, while concentrated markets
were up y to 5K cents while the worlds
wheat shipments were about the same as
the week previous. the figures were bull

Birmingham, Aug. 23.-The stock mar
keti today continued in 3 more pronounc-

covery which set in at the end of last
week. The dealings were on a consider
ably larger scale, and there was increased
variety in the number of different issues
dealt in the morning. There were &C.
casional concessions from profit taking
and some bear selling, but in the after
noon the buying carried prices to per
cent. above Saturdays close.
The greater strength was shown by the
Changers, the coal stocks. Northern Pa

New York Aug. >29.-The dynamite
bomb upon which the bulls claimed the
cotton market was resting exploded to-
day. Prices advanced 80 points. Liver
pool starting off by cabling an advance
of four-sixty in that market this
morning. The opening here was marked
by such excitement as the brokers have
been unused to for long time. Every
body seemed to have good buying orders.
Prices opened from 10 to rs points above
the close on Saturday. Liverpool and the
short interest were the heaviest buyers,
but considerable outside buying was no.
ticeable. Rumors that western wheat
bulls were buying cotton and very light
receipts contributed to the uneasiness of
the shorts. Realizing sales caused a
sharp slump after the opening but the
demand was always good and when at
the last hour New Orleans sent heavy
buying orders here prices advanced rap
idly and with surprising ease. January
opened at 7.03, declined to 695, rallied to
7.O2 again, again declined to SOS, and
then rapidly advanced to 7.12, closing at
7.11@7.12 with the tone of the market
firm. 1t looks like a bull market and if
spectators enter it may become one.
We cannot share the enthusiasm, how
ever, and we think that those who sell
cotton cautiously will find opportunities
to replace lower.

prices ranging anywhere from Is to %
points over Saturday evening. Natural
ly there was a slight set back after such
sharp advance, but the market has
subsequently developed strength under
continued buying for new account, as
well as for account of the short interest
which is large, until at half past twelve
q net improvement of q to 80 points had
been established. The nearby options,
August, September and October have
shown the greatest strength, rejecting
the very strong statistical position of
cotton. 1t begins to look as if manlpula-
zion were in progress in August. Owing
to the fact that surplus supplies hire are
very firmly held, further advance
seems not improbable in that option.
which will in all probability be reelected
in the price of the September options.
The wet weather may not only curtail
the prospective yield, but impair the
quality. and at the same time result in
a very light movement during Septem-
Der, the effect of which will be to stimu-
late values.

New YORK cotton Market.


New York, Aug. est has been a long
day since the cotton exchange developed
the activity and excitement witnessed on
change at the opening of the market
this morning. 1t is safe to say that the
most sanguine bull operators were not
prepared for the advance on the first call
which commenced with August, showing
an advance of 10 points, gained strength
as it progressed and, eliminated with an
advance of 25@27 p6ints. There has been
large accumulation of buying orders
over night and Notwithstanding consider
able early selling pressure from Liver
pool and New Orleans, the undertone of
the market was unmistably strong after
break of at 9 psints which followed
the call, the market gradually righted it.
self and not only returned to the best
prices, but made further decided gain
at the best point of the day, showing an
advance of S6@SS points. Signs of ma

al improvement was based upon advice
of advance Of 1905 points at Liverpool.
Gables show that English traders have
discounted damage to cotton through the
recent excessive rains in the cotton belt.
The trading centered chfiy in October

an advance of 36 points over Saturdays
closing figures and the latter to 71S. at
an advance of 35 points. In the after
noon the market was alternatively strong
