COTTON STILL SOARING.
An Advance in the Price of the Manufactured
Goods.
Cation is still soaring.

Cotton is still soaring.
Though the local spot market yes
terday showed little change, the New
York speculative market advanced
from % TO 46 points.
The spot markets are strong
throughout the country and every
where the prediction is that still. high
er prices Will be reached. The prices
ruling yesterday in futures had not
been witnessed before since 1899, and
prior to that year, since i8S2S3.
The best grade of cotton sold here
yesterday readily for 10 3-S cents,
with indications of still higher fig
ureS.
Mills all over the country have
small stocks of cotton ON hand and
the price of the manufactured goods
is being advanced This means much
in fact it means that the present
advance will be maintained and that
a higher price still will be reached
by the staple.
The situation is of a critical charac-
ter, and has had no equal in twenty
wears. English spinners have done
their best to keep prices down, even
to the extent of closing the Manches-
ter mills for the month Of September
With supply of only 100000 bales
i'm Liverpool. when English consump-
ton is at the rate of about $4,000
bales a week, the situation has been
very favorable for the corner now eX-
lsting. which can only be relieved by
the shipment Of immense quantities
of cotton purchased from the Ameri-
can grower at the present high
prices.
The present advance was started
over O week ago by the failure Of the
new crop in, the South to appear al
Atlantic ports in liberal quantities.
A special to Tuesdays New Yorl,
Commercial from New Orleans SAYS:
Cotton King" Brown, as he has
come to be called, achieved another
| triumph today by cornering the spot
cotton market. He has been a big
! buyer Of spot cotton for several days
past, and took every bale in the mar
J ket today on the basis of 10Mc fol
middling. which is now the officia
quotation.
Mr.. Brown is selling his spot cottor
/ here to New England and Continental
spinners at big premium. He told
the Commercial correspondent today
that he had closed out the last of his
July and August cotton in Liverpool
today ct over 13 cents.
He is done with the Liverpool mar
l<et now. but will continue to take al
active interest in this market, and il
very bullish on all the positions. HI
said that his men in the interior haC
wired him they couldn't buy bale
Of cotton, which showed that thu
planters were going to reap the bene
fit of higher prices that are bound

COOLER WEATHER PROMISED.
We Will Have Cooler Nights For the Mex
Week or So.

It's an i'll wind that blows nobody
good.
The wind that wrecked Galveston
is not so bad a wind after all. if the
report of the Weather Bureau here is
to be believed. 1t has blown cool
nights to the heat-wracked citizens of
Raleigh. Professor Won Hermann says
that tonight will be cooler than it has
been since last spring, and that the
cool nights will be continued probably
during the next week.
In point of heat, the records here
show July to have been The hottest
month since the establishment of the
Weather Bureau in 1897. The greater
part of the time the thermometer
ranged in the neighborhood of 95.
For considerably more than three
weeks of the time the mercury was
higher than 90.
Many people say that the presen,
month has been hotter so far, than
any other September they can remem-
Der. The record at the Weather Blu
reau, however, shows that the wealth
er for the first twelve days of sep
TENDER, 1899, was several degrees hot
ter than the same period this year.

THE WELLS DRYING UP.
The Drought Continues Unbroken All Over the
State.

The drought continues all over the
State, and unless it is broken soon great
suffering will result.
Already in many sections the greatest
difficulty is experienced in getting water
for cattle. Elsewhere even good drinking
water for people is scarce and old wells,
long unusued, are being cleaned out for
use again.
Everywhere crops are deteriorating.
Cotton is prematurely opening, fodder
and corn stalks are drying up and tobac-
co is firing up from the bottom. Tur
nips, rice and other crops are dying.
The ground is so dry and hard that
very little blowing can be done and UNI
less rain comes very soon there can be.
no sowing of winter oats or wheat.
Farmers say they have never known
a September in which the prospects
looked so gloomy.
