The trading in cotton to day was more &C.
tive and broader than for some time past
ana moderate advance in prices occurred
Liverpool cables were higher. and were ac-
companed by buying orders. The South, too
bought here and Wall Street and local ope-
rators bought while some shorts covered
The weather at the South was generally
fair, whereas rain is needed In Texas and
some reports of damage by drought were re-
Ceived from that state to day. The Signal
Service predicted fair weather for Texas
except In the extreme western portion. for
the next thirtysix hours. Then, too, the
weekly government report was less favora-
Bile than had been expected. 1t said: while
rust and shedding are quite generally re-
ported the condition OF cotton over the
central and eastern portions OF the cotton
belt is somewhat improved. In portions OF
Louisiana, Arkansas, and over the greater
part of Texas rain Is badly needed. and the
condition Of cotton is less promising than at
the close OF the previous week. Picking has
commenced in central Texas and over the
southern portions OF the central and east
ern districts. the first bales having been
marketed in Alabama and South Carolina
On the advance local and Southern operators
took profits. but the tone remained steady
and the closing prices were practically the
best of the day.
Waco, Texas. Aug 2-"Condition OF cror
in this section is good but rain would be
beneficial Some shedding reported" Dallas
l eSaS, Aug o.-'f have nau u week OF very
hot weather. and complaints from s. e
Texas that II is hurting cotton. Other re-
ports state that hot weather Ia killing In
sects. and cotton Is fine Considerable pick
ing being done in south Texas. 1t is difficult
to say how hot weather will affect the cror
generally" Ardmore. l. T., Aug. 3-"Wea-
Their since 2lst ult.. favorable conditions
at present are perfect: IL same continues for
thirty days. we will receive as much as last
season. Plant Is tender. especially that
planted In June, but II is fruitng well.
Pine Bluff. Ark, Aug. 4.-"Crop as a rule
made good progress during last two weeks
except in river sections. where too much
rain made rank growth whereas much OF
bayou and hill lands are suffering from lack
OF moisture. These conditions have caused
some shedding. Temperature prevailing fol-
past ten days very high, ranging from &C
to 100 degrees in the shade. which has sud
denly arrested growth, and caused shedding
Crop is now entering "A very critical period
and weather during this month will deter
mre outturn; should conditions be favora
Bile. fair crop is practically assured, but
with even a moderate drought at this time
damage would be enormous

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.


TUESDAY, Aug. B.
Developments In the financial situation
to-day we're wholly OF a favorable charac-
ter, and were reflected In better prices for
q majority OF the stocks dealt in on the
Stock Exchange. The matter OF first i'm
portance was a drop in call money. 1t
got down to 2h per cent although most
OF the loans were made AZ ga to 81 per
cent The high rate was per cent. 1t
was natural that the fact that call money
was disclosing r declining instead OF an
advancing tendency should have a stimulat
Ing effect on stock values. for It had been
the fear OF dearer money that recently had
restricted speculative operations and pre-
vented an expected advance in prices. There
were intimations that the Secretary OF the
Treasury, himself banker OF long ex-
perience. and. therefore, knowing the ext
gencies OF the occasion had determined on
steps additional to the issuance Of new gold
certificates OF the smaller denominations, to
prevent any real stringency In money. For
one thing II was said that the government
balances in the depository banks would at
once be largely augmented. 1t was agreed
that the banks had handled matters with
great skill up to the present, and were ca
pabe OF avoiding any serious situation; az
the same time the Intervention OF the Sec
tion by him, 1t was considered, was calcu-
lated to allay apprehension and Induce the
release OF funds that have been boarded in
order that the holders might be ready for
emergencies. More money than Is general
ly realized has been locked up Another
thing designed to impart ease to money
was a further fall OF one fourth cent in
sterling exchange, which suggested the ear
ly beginning OF an import movement OF gold
Obstacles are likely for a period to be
put in the way OF a flow OF gold from
London to New York, such. for instance,
as the prospective raising on Thursday OF
the Bank OF England's rate OF discount.
Reports OF railroad earnings continued
good. The returns of the Northern Pacific
Road for the fourth week of July showed
a gain OF $67, 1877 over last year, and for the
month Of July a gain Of S357,6lS.
There was a substantial Improvement In
the price OF Sugar Refining stock. rise
in raw sugars has strengthened the posi-
tion OF the company. IL Is heavily sup
piled with raw sugars. purchased at the
unusually low prices formerly ruling, and Is
making a large profit In refining. con-
siderable demand appeared for Anaconda
Mining, and It moved mp readily. There
was an unconnrmed story that John d.
Rockefeller had sold his entire holding OF
Brooklyn Rapid Transit, but the stock was
strong. advancing one point for the day.
American Tobacco was active, and gained
fractionally in price. as did Continental To-
bacco, in which there was not so much do
ing There were advances in Steel and
Wire and Colorado Fuel and Iron. The
prices OF the Granger stocks and OF most
railroad stocks were bettered somewhat
