New York, August 2s.--while the cotton
market was still very active, with wide and at
times violent fluctuations taking the day as a
whole there was developed a sentiment OF
caution which somewhat reduced the volume
OF business and left the impression that the
Views at large were wavering. The market
opened rampant at an advance of 3 TO 6
points. with further advance of to s points
Immediately following. The early upward
movement was caused by the alarming char
aoter OF crop news from the Southwest ard
more particularly from Texas. A Texas col
ton firm has advices from eighteen counties,
with the damage yariously reported at from
10 to so per cent. This. supplementing the
official reports OF damage and the absence OF
rain in the Washington forecasts. became a
large factor in the upward movement, which
appeared TO be restricted only by the dispose
ton To take profits The latter at one time
turned the market. SO that noon found prices
within points OF the best OF yesterday. Again
there was whirl In the market caused by mn
influx of outside buying orders, and some of
the more timid shorts had to cover Trading
in the afternoon became less. active. with fhe
best support from the short side. The markes
closed steady at net advance OF to ii

Houston. Mednesday. August 3.

Houston. wednesday, august 20.
The canned goods situation is very inter-
esting Just at this time. For the past two
or three weeks the market has been COM
paratively quiet and Gamers reported bust
ness SLOW though they did not attempt to
push their product upon the market Now
a number OF them have withdrawn prices and
1t is very evident that they intend to advance
quotations. A heavy advance IS noted in TIN
cans, amounting TO % to 30 per cent within
a week. and still higher prices are antici-
pated for september and October deliveries.
The effect should be a reaction In canned
goods to n higher level aud the withdrawal
as noted is clearly evident that such VIII be
the case.
There has been no changes in staples In
the local market for this week. though there
is an undertone in all lines. except coffee,
which indicates that an advance. especially
in breadstuffs. may take place at any time
Jobbers report heavy demand for staples
and from the strength of the markets at dis
tributng points 1t is evident that this de-
mand is general all over the country.
Business in Houston Is as good as could
be wished for. There Is not wholesale con-
Germ but that is satisfied with trade condi-
lions, which is ample proof that such is the
case. for when trade Is dull there is always
a kick coming and they do not hesitate to let
ii be known.
