hall, at Crystal lake. last year, has

lady who has had much experience in
the hotel business and will surely make
the new venture a success. ID. ]. Rob-
inson will be retained as clerk. Mr..

tribute to the advance by buying to cover
short contracts. There were several elc-
ments of the situation in their favor.
There was continued firmness in the
rates for money and continued losses
by the bankers to the sub-treaSury to
pay fer government bond allotments
causing apprehension of a money squeeze
at later period. There was also some
evidence that the opening advance iii
prices was manipulated to afford oppo--
tunity for profit taking, thus giving en-
enlargement to the bears. During the
first hour acute depression developed in
the coalcrS on account of the report from
Philadelphia that tide water prices for
anthracite had been cut p cents all,
that the companies had abandoned the
effort to control the trade this season.
Losses in the group extended to 3@ per
cent. and coupled with weakness in some
of the specialties. broke the whole mar
kct to prices materially below last nights
level.
There was evidence of powerful sup
port in many stocks at level slightly
below yesterdays prices and there was
large general buying also invited by any
decline. Evidence of this influenced the

favorites firm nearly Ill day also form
cd an effective point of resistance. There
were authoritative denials late in the
day on behalf of the officials of the coal

Their weakening of exchange gave
promise of early gold imports though the
reported buying of gold in London yes
terday Tor New York account was not
confirmed. There was some growth also
of assurance that tightncss in the money
market would be soon relieved by the
early distribution of the new government
Is per cent bonds.
All these factors tended to the rccov-
cry in stocks and late break of 3 points
in Manhattan caused only a fractional re
action in the general list, which closed
at net gain in nearly all cases.

COTTON.

New York. Aug. 30.-Apathy reigncd
supreme throughout today's session on
the cotton exchange with fluctuations
the narrowest perhaps, i'll some weeks.
The market opened duh with prices )
points lower, subsequently recovered the
loss ON light local support and for the rest
of the session failed to show positive
leaning either one way or the other. \
bearish Interpretation of the initial Eng
fish cables and Il few scattered foreign
selling orders were responsible for the
early decline, while the reaction was
due in good part to covering by tired
shorts who saw no prospects of radi-
cal change in the near future. The mar
ket showed some signs of wavering ear
~ in the afternoon under a half heart
ed effect on the part Of the bear crowd.
Some of the stronger bulls absorbed all
these offerings, however. and the sellers
soon became buyers. Scalpers operated
in an Indifferent way on both sides of the
account. a few sales for European AZ.
count early in the day were reported to
be hedges against recent purchases Of
spot cotton in Southern markets. The
market closed quiet at net loss of 26l3
points.
