New York. Sept. 6-St Paul was the
central figure in to-day's market. The
publication of the annual reports with its
great detail of facts and figures, ali
showing extraordinary prosperity was the
motive of the buyers, which was very
large and which carried The price steadily
upwards nearly six points. So wide a
movement in standard stock of St

some sympathetic strength m the general
market. The ST. Paul movement in the
upper stages of the advance showed some

quite free selling wherever there was a
notable advance in price and the Fast
hour was given over to an active realizing

Good business in Cotton-Holidays

Savannah Sept. 6-The accumulation Of
orders received during the two holidays
gave an impetus 10 the wholesale branches
of trade to-day. all of which enjoyed a
good business. Coupled with the start
business is getting on account of the near
approach OF fall. is the activity it took
on after resuming to-day. The opening Of
fall trade is looked for within the next
two or three weeks. It may begin sooner,
according to the time the farmers market
their products. and thereby inaugurate
country business.
The feature of the local market was the
sales of naval stores made after the close
OF the market, which was in an attitude
OF suspense during the day, pending the
action of factors in accepting bids slight
ly below quotations. The market fell Ac
at the opening on sales of 100 casks, but
there were no transactions during the
afternoon. the market ruling firm at A
cents bid. Business became brisk after
the close, however, when sales Of several
hundred casks were made at the price bid.
The fact the offerings were limited indi-

was currently believed the entire offerings
at the close would have been taken at
the price bid, If factors had been dis
posed TO sell at that price.
The rosln market was posted firm at I'M

they have been brought out, it may be
considerable business in these grades will
follow.
Cotton had a fairly good day OF 1t,
though the sales did not come up to what
they We're Tuesday, the total for to-day
being less than a thousand bales. Liver
pool advlces were encoura sing. and showed
advances Private advices were to the
effect that the firmness of Southern spots
had much to do with the advance ana
strength in Liverpool. The government
bureau report, which comes out Monday,
is among the things being looked forward
10 by the trade with some interest. A
bullish sentiment prcdominated in New
York the market there responding to
Liverpool in net gain of from 10 to y
points.
The warm weather does not seem to be
hindrance to the shipment of produce
The only effect IT had apparently was to
hurry dealers in getting cons gnments off
their hands The most perishable articles
are reported strong, and the prospect is
that the market will probably hold it's
present tone for two or three days To-
days rush was due to the fact that most
all dealers unloaded before the holidays
thereby causing customers to seek sup
plies early. The following resume of the
different markets will show the tone and
quotations at the close today:

STRONG BuLLIsH SENTIMENT.
Cotton Futures Closed nj Net Gain
of 10 aud II Points.

New York Sept 6.-Bullsh sentiment
predominated in the market for cotton
futures all day, but considering all phases
of the local situation, confident bull spec
ulation was conspicuous by its absence
Shorts were made uneasy at the opening
by an unexpected Improvement in spot
business as well as higher prices for fu-
lures at Liverpool, and IN an effort to
place themselves in Il more secure posi-
ton, forced prices 1fD4 points higher on
the opening. The market was steady at
the advance. . As the session progressed
the nervousness Of shorts increased, num-
erous crop damage reports having come
to hand from Texas. and good buying or
ders reached the market from New Or
leans. BY midday prices had scored fur
Their advances and continued to improve
pretty much all the afternoon. Wall street
contributed considerable support in the
last hour, purchasing January and March
contracts. German houses which had
been quite active sellers early in the day
turned buyers, leaving the market almost
bare of sellers. The weather indications
did not hold out any promise OF relief in
the cotton belt from the excessive tenn
perature. and long continued drought.
This fact, together with predictions that
the government report would he bullish
added to the alarm Of shorts.

said to BE Due to Appreciation of
Condition of Texas Crops.
New York. Sept. 6-Hubbard Bros. &
Co. say of cotton to-day: Again the Euro
pean market has surprised the American
markets by their firmness in the face of
heavy receipts and the fear of political
complications. Its strength was hardly
credited at first, but prices gained during
the morning, showing an advance of s
points. We believe the strength abroad
due TO better appreciation of the condi-
tion of the Texas crop, as orders are re-
celved by their buyers from day TO day
The weather in Southwestern Texas Is
clear and hot, with no indications OF a
much needed rain. Local traders are dis
appointed at the failure of the movement
TO depress prices, though The prices paid
IN the South by the spinner prevents any
great pressure. The approaching bureau
report was credited with the strength of
the day, as it is expected to be a bad one
