Grain 1 e,ter.

Birmingham. Aug. 6.-The premium of cash wheat over speculative is at pres crit attracting a-tertion and causes some alarm among bears.
 Liusrpool wheat was a shade higher, causing a firmer opering on uhis side. September contracts opened 1l2c higher at 77; advanced lio 771sc, declined to 75Ac, but on better foreign demand rallied to and closed at 771sc Corn and ca s were featurelsss, while provisions were a shade lower.
 Cleaqances today of what and four equal 247, 900 bushels. Wheat, primary receipts, 746.000, against 654000; ship ments, 41,000 again-r 170000 bushels. Northwest receipts, 201-cars. against 359 cars last year.
 On the break today buying was quite spirited, with some of the large bulls the leaders, and aided by reports from the seaboai1, 1t continued to report large export demand. Nogether with fair cash inquiry here. the market nearly recovered the break and closed steady at ITS for September
 Continental markets wers weak. Paris declined 50 to 65 and ,Anawelp 1214 cen- times.
 This was in sympathy with the decline here yesterday, and was offset by good aceptances of wheat over night al New York by the continent.

Cntton Letter.

New York, Aug. 6.-The season contin- ued in tlaa cotton market today. This .trnes prices went up a little. Liverpool ad- vanced one-half of sixty-fourth, anr there was no pressure here from any source. The opening was I to points higher, Janrary selling on the first call at 7.15. Liverpool and New Orleans were both moderate buyers in the marlxet, and the local bulls made the best of the con- tinued dry and exec 4stvely hot weather. Texas crop conditions elsewhere, how ever. were good. January advanced ito 7.22. There was considerable realizing in the late trading and prices eaIsed. Jan uary closed al TIT to 7.1s, win the sone of the market steady. unlsss crop re- ports from the southwest improve soon the market will probably go higher.

speculative demand for cotton still con tiates narrow, but the existing situatl n ought to attract some fresh speculative Attsntion. The trade however, continues beAfish. but the absence of offerings in- 'didates that they are not quite sure of their position. Weather developments in the southwest should be closely watched and should the trade become conyines that the prospective yield is likely to be curtaGled to any eXteHt, cotton will be found purchase for a substantial profit.

Buyers are mor= active in their dealings, and more urgent speculative feeling is mani fest, particularly in the northwest and western staes. Prices are firm, and job bers are also stronger with a better store trade than for some time past. In cot ton staples the demand is seill free and the market still shows the same strong front that it has for some days. The market for print cloths shows gr=at strength.

Enannial


 New York. Aug. 6.-The Evening Posts London financial cablegram:
 Americans boomed today, but use the word more in the sense of New York and continental buying than any real rush for the. stocks here. The profes- sienals realized largely and the continued advance in prices in New York with no set back makes them nervous about the opening transactions, especially on the eye o the esettlement. Todays gains are a further advertising of the American market which is the topic of conyersa- tion among finapciers here. New York exchange is watched closely. Were it not for the enormous shipments of stocks to New York gold movements would be looked for soon. As it is American bills for delivery ten days hence are largely offered and shrewd quarters would not be surprised to hear before long that New York had engaged gold. Today gold is in strong demand for Aus tria, but l am told that the requirements in that quarter may terminate soon.
 Kaffirs were good considering that the settlement begins on Monday. The Paris and Berlin markets were firm.
