STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, September 24.-Speculation
was inclined to wait on the bank state
ment to-day and there was much doubt
concerning what the showing would be.
The realizing movement In the stock
market upon its appearance Indicated
that the return is not regarded as alto
gether favorable, in spite of the rise IN
the net surplus reserve of $4,02l, 40.
The increase in cash was less than 81
100000 and the remainder Of the in
crease in surplus was due TO reduction
of reserve requirements by fall OF IL
314,30 in the deposits, a reflection from
the contraction in loan of 81, 102, 4OO. 1t
was believed by some people that last
weeks heavy decrease of over S12,OOO,-
600 in loans was due in some way to the
mysterious system of averages used by
the banks. But in that event there
should have been some book keeping
compensation i'll to-day's statement. 1t
is certain that there has been no such
drastic contraction of open market loans,
either last week, or this as was indica-
ted on the face of the statement The
more probable explanation is that adj
vanced in this review last week. namely
that the liquidated loans are largely
those made to outside banks to finance

subscriptions of the Government loan.
The delivery of bonds by the Govern
ment has been delayed but is now pro
crossing more rapidly and the loans are
liquidated with the delivery of the bonds.
The bank returns indicate otherwise the
turn in the money market toward great
or ease. The stock market showed a
quiet but large absorption of railroad
stocks, notably the Pacifics and Changers
on the traffic returns of those roads. The
miscellaneous list showed tendency to
reaction, which was checked by the
firmness of the railroad list until the
realizing movement on the bank state
ment. Wheeling and Lake Erie consol
IS rose % per cent, making the net
rise for the week 81 per cent.

1ArEN ANn STOIrTS LETTER.

New York. Sept. 24.-(Special.) 1.-The
most Noticeable feature of the week in
the cotton market was the establishment
ON Wednesday of new low record by
the October option selling ut 022 as
compared with the previous low record
of 523 for the November and Decem-
her options made on November the 18th,
1894. The new low record, however,
applies only to contract cotton, for spot
is still quoted at GIG, being the low
point of March LIST, 1895, while Liverpool
quotes Middling at 5-32, which it will
be noted is 3-16 above the low record
made February LIST, 1895. The friends
of cotton are having more to contend
with than the bear predictions of anoth-
or enormous yield, for now that the crop
is moving, attention is being drawn to
the lack of demand. With quotations
falling lower and lower each day, spin
ners find no induccment to hurry the ac
emulation of their supplies. but on the
other hand, with one accord, they seem
inclined to hold out Of the market for
further developments. Again, the lack
of speculative demand throws the weight
OF the crop Immediately on Il declining
market. If the speculative public could
be induced to take hold it is readily seen
that the amount they would carry would
assist in the maintaining of prices. As
for the current crop news the devel-
opments of the week have been gen
orally favorable. The so-called equinGc-
tial storm has swept up from the Gulf
Coast through the Mississippi Valley
without doing any serious damage, and
the periods of warm sunshine eXpcrien-
ced throughout the entire cotton belt
have gone far to repair the damage done
by earlier rains. The special reports
of Neill Thoman and other cotton OK
perts. together with the weekly Govern
ment report, have all pointed to increas
ing favorable conditions and been bearish
in their tenor. On the whole, there is
little to be said to justify an expectation
of higher prices in the near future.
While the market seems to have tempo
rarily discounted existing conditions and
may possibly have been depressed to n
lower level than the actual crop situa-
ton justifies, we must have better de-
mand for spot cotton from spinners, rs
well as from the speculative public, be-
fore prices can be materially advanced
In other words, it will require some
startling development, such as might
arise from a premature frost or extreme
ly unfavorable climatic conditions to
change the existing bearish sentiment.
If there should be such a DEVELOPMENT.
It would likely arouse simultaneously
the spot buyers Of the world and those
spectators who are waiting to see prices
touch their lowest before purchasing
and the result would be very sharp
and rapid rise from the present level.

COTTON.

New York, September 24.-The cotton
market opened steady with prices I'M
changed to points lower and ruled very
dull with unimportant further variations,
pretty much all through the rest of the
short session. Orders were scarce, news
averaged up about n stand off, while
room traders were indisposed to operate
extensively either way in the face OF
possible startling changes at the South
or abroad over Sunday. a liberal move
ment at the ports and interior points had
been largely discounted The market late
in the forenoon developed an easier I'M
dertone as a result of bear hammering.
Liquidation of cotton held by some of the
smaller longs set in and this pressure de-
cined prices several points. The close
was quiet with prices l to points
net lower.
Port receipts estimated for the day at
10000 bales, against 20,174 last week
