 New Orleans, August 2s.-Sunday, as usual brought rain to the cotton belt. but not to the section where most needed. What rains that did fall were confined to the At lantic and Gulf coasts, while Arkansas re- ceiyed beneficial showers. Longyiew, Tex arkana and Houston, Texas, were also wis., ited by local showers, which altogether had the effect of lowering Liverpool three six ty-fourths on futures. while spots were in buyers favor. Sales. 5000 bales at un- changed quotations. When Liverpool learn cd that the rains in Texas were of no ma- terial benefit, prices started to improve. finally closing two sixty-fourths down. Our market opened with October at Il, or lower than Saturdays close At no time during the day was the price lower than the opening figure. and notwithstanding the fact that receipts were running heavy. with good rains over Sunday outside of Texas, the bulls stood by their guns to a man and succeeded in holding the market at a level. slightly higher than the opening.

Ta,bott x Paimer's stack Letter

By Private Wire from the New York Sun.
 New York, August 2S.-The American To- bacco and Continental Tobacco stocks, in a certain sense, were the leaders of today's market Both scored noteworthy advances on very heavy transactions and their ad- vance seemed with the course of the day to be effective in stimulating purchases else where in the industrial quarter, which ad- vanced on more animated dealings than has been noted for some time. The particular strength of the Tobacco stocks was based upon expectation that later on in the week the initial dividend of 1% per cent. will be declared on Continental Tobacco, prefer red after which according to reports, the dividend on American Tobacco common will probably be advanced to per cent. The railway list was comparatively dull. Its steadiest features were Northern Pa- cifc. Union Pacific, the Atchisons Louis vile and Nashville and Southern Railway, preferred Among the specialties Mobile and Ohio was conspicuous on very sharp advance and the Panhandle shares rose also, probably under the stimulus of usual Sunday dissertation upon the value of that security. The local fractions stocks were all strong and active, without any special developments in that quarter, at any rate, became public property. Apparently the most effective buying In these shares came from the persistent short interest, which is nearly invariably lodged in that quarter. Compa ra lively heavy features of the mar ket were Western Union and Southern Pa- cific. The decline in Western union ac- counted for. rather than followed the cir cuIation of runors in regard to the dividend to be declared early next month.

 New York August 2S-TAe Liverpool market this morning was lower; besides there were rain reports from the Atlantic and gulf states with close to inches at some South Carolina stations. and again while government accounts reported Texas dry, private advices claimed good rain at Houston and light rain at several other towns, all of which. combined with heavy port receipts, unsettled the early market to 10 points. Rains, however appear to have been light and local. Fair weather fer Texas was again indicated. The mar ket was irregular and dull after the open- ing and rallied points by 1 D. m. The re- ceipts attracted a good deal of attention and this, 1t was argued, would for some tune offset the most bulhsh situation The spot markets were unchanged Futures were fairly active all day. Receipts were 13,000 against 5000 last year. The market closed ? to 8 below Saturdays.

CHARGE TRAIN WRECKING
Jim Williams, 12 Year Old Negro Boy
 Placed in Jail

Jim Williams, a 12-year-old negro boy, was brought to the city yesterday and jail ed on the charge of train robbery. It is charged that he made an attempt to wreck a Birmingham Southern freight train near Stockton.
 The engineer noticed spikes on the track and stopped his train in time. The boy was standing near the track, and when the train was stopped he ran off. The action was suspicious. and the engine was de- tached from the freight cars and sped up the track after the fugitive. The negro finally took to the woods, and the crowd on the engine followed. He was captured after long chase, and carried first to Pratt City, where he was arraigned for preliminary examination before Justice William Grady. The evidence was against him and his bond was assessed at $500. He was brought to Birmingham last night and jailed. It is said that he has confessed his guilt.
