August 20.-Liverpool in closing one-half sixty-fourth up on fu- lures and unchanged on spots, sales of Sss- ly 5000 bales, gave little encouragement to American longs this morning, but what little indisposition that was shown abroad was more than offset by the continued op- pressively high temperature again prevail ing in the cotton States, the mercury at Augusta, Savanna and Macon, Ga, touchr ing the century mark; at Montgomery, Charleston, 8. and Little Rock and Mem phis it stood at 96 The only rains reported were showers al a few points quite copious in Central and East Texas and in South ern Louisiana.

- GENERAL ELECTRIC
 CAUSED COMMENT Was Suddenly Marked Up Four Points on Stock Exchange. .-~. FLUCTUATIONS IN STEEL Were ComF aratively Narrow A Gen eral Weakness in Stocks Followed
 Announcement of the Death of
 Prominent Broker
FLUCTUATIONS IN STEEL

New York Aug. 20.-There was no rad ical change today in the character of re- cent stock market operations. General news bearing on the situation was seant, but what there wae, furnished ammunition for the bears. London, which has laterly been a buyer, turned seller for a small amount, and western offerings were effective in special stocks.
 General weakness occurred in stocks with which the firm of Flower & Co., Is identified, following the announcement of the death of a member of the firm. These include half dozen most active issues and losses, ranging from 1 to points with Brooklyn Rapid Transit and Peoples Gas leading. Elsewhere, selling was in moderate volume, but some rather pronounced dealings oe- cured in sugar, tobacco, Consolidated Gas and Metropolitan Street Railway. Railroad stocks were much better sustained than the specidlties, declines extending to point only in St Paul and Rock Island. While the general tone throughout the greater part of the day was reactionary, there were periods of steadiness when the ,horts reduced their lines.
 Some comment was aroused by the sud- len marking up of General Electric to l40A. Its closing price on Saturday was 15o. He- ports of combination with a rival con- tern and excellent earning were circulated, If which there was no confirmation Fluc- luations in the steel group were eompara- lively narrow, but early losses were gen. orally recovered in the late afternoon on reports of improved trade conditions. A matter of interest in connection with the International monetary situation was the decline iu money in London to 2k per rent. This circumstance was attributed to receipts of gold by the Bank of England amounting to $4,670,000 This amount in- rluded the $3,250,000 gold exported from here on Saturday week.
 Bonds showed irregularity, but changes were very small. Total sales, par value, b655000.

COTTON TRADING 1

 siderable IrreguIarity. THE CLOSING WAS STEADY With August 7 Points Lower, Other Months 7 to l2 Points Hiqhsr-
 Late Market Firm on Covering
 and Investment Support
THE CLOSING WAS STEADY

New York. August 2O.-The market for cotton futures showed considerable irregu- larity today. On the opening call August declined Il points. while the rest of the list was points lower to points higher. For time pretty weak feeling prevail ed. This was due to unsatifactory cables and an almost entire absence of public speculative interest.
 Crop news while conflicting, had a pret- ty bad average later in the session. A demand from shorts. and on this account and following reports of heavy rains in Texas, drought in the Atlantic States, car ried prices up Il to 13 points from the low est level of the forenoon. Trading was not at all active, as opinions were much at variance and neither one side nor the other was disposed to act on their convictions.
 The late market was firm on covering and investment support At the close the feeling was steady with August points lower and other months to 12 points high CT.
