STOCK MARKET
 WAS VERY NARROW
Some Interesting Movements of
 Certain industries.
SUGAR BADLY DEPRESSED
Small Declines in the Railroad Stocks Were in Sympathy With London
 and Reports of Unfavorable
 Conditions in Crop Districts

New York, Aug. 21.-The stock market was narrow today, the only incidents of note being the movements of certain in dustrials the opening was easy on Londons weakness. Sugar was depressed on the strength of a reduction in coffee prices, which was taken to indicate a possible re- sumption of the trade war in sugar, de- spite the recent maintainance of similar prices with customers. The stock went off 1A per cent on the offerings of some large amounts A continuance of the recent bear campaign against Peoples Gas accounted for its point fall.
 Small declines in railroad stocks were in sympathy with London and reports of un favorable conditions in crop districts Busi- ness was only moderate during the selling and as liquidation was not forced the shorts commenced to cover. Before the forenoon expired. prices were on the mend, and there were indications of confident buying in spots. Rallies were most pro- nounced in the stocks which has suffered earlier and the general level was lifted above last night. Conspicuous strength was shown by Brooklyn Transit, Manhattan and Consolidated Gas, the latter rising 2k per cent from the lowest. New Jersey Cen tral then assumed a commanding position in the market, rising 3A per cent to 1S71k, which Is a record price in it's recent upward movement.
 Monetary conditions abroad showed a fur ther relaxation, discounts at London de- clning and exchange on London at con- tihental points also yielding. In the local market money rates were unaffected with Borrowers described as being in an inde- pendent position.
 Business in bonds expanded today, and there was an active demand for St. Louis Southwestern Seconds, which advanced them $ per cent. The general market was irregular, but variations were slight. Total sales, par value, $1 115,000

COTTON FUTURES FAIRLY STEADY
 47s4 Closing English Cables Proved Best for the Day. CLOSE WAS LITTLE HIGHER Favorable Weather Forecast Helped Undermine Bull Convictions-Au- gust Closed Points Lower.
 Other Months Higher
CLOSE WAS LITTLE HIGHER

New York August 21.-The market for cotton futures began the day fairly steady in tone, with prices on near months two to four points higher, following firmer ruling of English markets than discount ed and a continuation of abnormally light receipts at interior towns and ports. After declining to a level two to five points un- der last nights closing, the market again stiffened upon general buying. The clos ing English cables proved about the best of the day and gave the bull movement new impetus. The late forenoon and midday hours were devoted to prepara- dons for the government report at D. m Before this was received January climbed up to S.57 with the near months showing corresponding firmness. The Bureaus s summary did not meet the expectations of the bulls, however, and the excited selling of long stuff which followed the govern ments announcement carried prices back ten points. A favorable weather forecast helped to undermine bull convictions at that time. Nevertheless, the market again turned firm later in the session on fresh buying by the shorts. The market closed steady with August three points lower and other months one to five points higher.

 New Orleans, La., August H.-Liverpool quite good today, closing at an ad- vance of 3@5-64d on futures and at a gain of 1-32d on spots. Sales were 1000 bales On the good showing of Liverpool and a better tone to the Manchester market cloths and yarns being quoted quiet, with no anxiety to sell--futures in New Orleans opened at unchanged prices from last nights close, December at S.26. After the English market closed there was some ad- vantage taken to the poor support to the market, and prices were sold off some few points, December declining to S.21. Contin- ued high temperatures in the Atlantic States, Augusta recording the mercury at 102 as an average for eleven stations in that district, caused some apprehension in the bear camps The weather map showed but insignificant showers at few widely separated stations, and this, together with the high temperatures, put the shorts to covering and the longs to increasing their lines December, In the mesnttmA ad- vanced to s.3tds. .SG, at which figure it was when the weekly Bureau w1.s read out.

The report, the feature of the day, was no less a bullish statement than its prede- cessors, yet the market was sold down from S.35 to S.23 for December. At this juncture, buying upwards of 5000 bales for a prominent operator restored the market to the days high level, S.46 for October, this is the best price this month has brought this season. Of new cotton today, Houston gets 40 bales vs 4700 bales last year; 3,S96 year before and S,503 in 1897; Galveston 1S9; New Orleans 2; Savannah 33; Charleston 20; Norfolk Il, and Augusta 73 bales.
