New York, Sept. 1.-The character Of
to-day's stock market vas very similar
to that of yesterday, Individual stocks
being rushed to a high level TO stimu-
late and sustain the market, while real
lzing was effected In other parts of the
list. The Vanderbilt stocks were Sc
lected to-day for manipulation aefT the
price of each member of the group was
successfully raised, while In the stocks
recently favorites In the speculation
heavy offerings were made to realize.
The success OF these tactics is shown
by the small decline in the general list.
The manipulation for Il rise was not in
evidence at the oponIng, Sugar being
subjected to a raid which carried 1t
down nearly 2 points. Omaha also OPP
ened 3 points below last nights close
and Missouri Pacific was down nearly
4 point. Later in the day Northwest
was taken in hand and rushed up TO
l2TR, q jump Of 6 points.
Coincidcnt with the buoyancy in the
Vnnderbilts, h Changers and the ac-
tive railway list sank to the lowest
of the day. Later in the day these
stocks recovered somewhat from the
lowest and the Vanderbilt stocks. ex-
cept New York Central. declined very
materially from the highest. There were
other stocks which showed special
strength all through the list. especially
among the Industrials. Chicago Gas
touched 105A. a new high record. but
reacted a point. Pacific Mail rose 2&.
but reacted "a. Western Union also was
active and strong.
There was some falling off In activity
In the bond market, but prices were

COTTON MARKETS..

New York, Sept. 1.-The cotton mar
ket opened with prices unchanged to
3 points higher and steady In tone, with
the Improvement chiefly on the more
remote deliveries. There was q sub
sequent Improvement 10 ) points. after
which the market made q sharp break,
attended by considerable excitement,
with the close steady at a net loss of
llQ14 points, or at about the lowest
level OF the session. The early i'm
proVement resulted from a better class
of private than public news from Liv-
erpooi, the former indicating some en-
couragement regarding the Manchester
outlook. The substantial improvement
In the demand for spot cotton at Liv-
erpool for q time checked selling, but
later selling orders from Liverpool be-
came comparatively large and started
u market on the down track. bringing
stop orders out and resulting in con-
siderable lrregularity. Liquidation be-
came quite general and local sentiment
was finally decidedly bearish on the
rapid Increasing movement at interior
towns. Shorts were, for the most part,
the buyers. On all weak intervals New
Orleans sent buying orders. Selling
was to some extent arrested by gene
rally satisfactory accounts from Fall
River.
