SUNDAY is TAKEN UP WITH CLEARING

Marvellous Changes Wrought In the
Wrecked City During the Lait Few
Days--WilI Rise Again.
Galveston, Sept H., Yesterday was
dreary sabbath in Galveston. Serv-
ices We're held in the few churches made
ht for use since the great storm. All
day men and boys We're at work clear
( ing away the debris. Only few dead
We're found during the day and they
We're quickly burned, no attempt being
made to identify them.
The military authorities and the
civil authorities are now cooperating
harmoniously in Galveston and conse-
quently there is less looting and desc
Grafton of corpses. Sheriff Thomas is in
charge of the isolated district and is
property there.
The destitute, wishing to go to
friends in the country, are given free
transportation and are being sent out
of the city as rapidly as the limited
transportation facilities at the disposal
of the committee on transportation
will permit.
The cleaning up and disinfecting of
streets. stores and buildings is being
diligently carried on, and the sanitary
condition OF the down town portion of
the city has been greatly improved
Dry goods stores and clothing houses
resemble great laundries and every
available space is occupied with goods
hung up TO dry.
State Health Officer Blunt left for
Austin. where he will make report
to the governor concerning conditions
in Galveston. 1t is said that this state
ment will estimate the mortality at

Meth,Ia,ed The president brought
Spirits up the question of the
Question sale Of methylatei
spirits. Several deaths had occurred
from over-indulgence in the article.
Mr.. Smith explained that the law was
the same as that Of several leading ma
lions, which did not treat methylated
spirits as poison. They had to be taxi
en- in large quantities to produce leth-
al effects. Still, as In France measures
were being taken to put absinthe In
the class of poisons, and as methylated
spirits We're liable to be abused by
aboriginal people, he suggested that a
committee should be appointed to dram
up recommendation on the matter to
the Legislature.

COTTON LETTER S.

New York, Aug 23.-Murphy n Co. say:
Cotton in Liverpool advanced 1-16d on
spots. Futures closed a net decline of
about 3-64d and sent orders here to sell
new crop deliveries owing to yesterday S
advices of scattered rain. To-day's re-
ports over the belt show further rain in
the drought sections, but the trade don
seem to regard it as general or enough to
relieve the situation. The South sold. Not
much desire to sell here. Locals inclined
to buy on the decline.
New Yor, Aug. 23.-Hubbard Bros &
Company say: Showers fell over
the cotton belt yesterday being heaviest
in Arkansas. Mississippi and North Car
DINA and lightest in Northern Georgia
and South Carolina. The effect OF these
showers was to cause a weaker market
in Liverpool and a slow decline here. Our
local traders do not consider the rains
have been heavy enough TO relieve
drought in the northern portions OF Ten
nessee, Alabama, Georgia and South Car
DINA. There has been little pressure TO
sell except from the South, as the local
trade are afraid of the short side atter
the recent sharp advance and desire to
know more regarding the effect these
rains have had. They have SO
far only stopped any revival in specula-
toned based on a drought, but do not en-
courage any bearish view amongst the
trade. Outsiders are more inclined TO sell
than to buy on trade conditions.

Large Scale.
New York, Aug. 2.-Business on the
Stock Exchange to-day was again of small
proportions. Some irregularity occurred in
the movement of prices and net changes
showed about an even distribution of
small gains and losses. Special movements
were under way in individual stocks, but
their tendency exercised no effect on the
general list. Stocks which have tended
upwards recently continued in that di-
rection to-day, particularly Con olidated
Gas, New Jersey Central and St. Louis
Southwestern. The latter was bought on
reports of possible dividend on the pre-
ferred stock, but the common shares also
rose point While no corroboratio has
been made regarding the reputed deal in
New Jersey Central, that stock moved up
two points, but only retained a net gain
of 81 per cent. Baltimore and Ohio sym
pathized i'm the movement to the extent of
about a point, but did not hold the ad-
vantage.
At no time during the day was there any
indication of strength in the Western

about 5000 shares of various issues.
A bid of per cent. was made for call
money late in the afternoon, but there was
no transaction at that rate. Business

Morning News Office. Aug. 49,
The downward tendency in the turpen-
tine market continues TO be the feature
IN local business circles. During the past
week the market has lost S1a cents, drop
ming from 3s1a to &C. the closing price at
the Board of Trade to-day. The price is
being pulled down by heavy receipts, and
4 lack of demand from any source. At
ter to-day's closing factors felt confident
that a check was in sight Unless there
is an unexpected increase in the demand
it is not explained how this. will come
about, since there is no indication of an
immediate lessening in the receipts. Ros-
ms closed firm al an advance of 3 cents
on G and below as the outside price.
The cotton market closed steady and
unchanged, with limited demand pre-
vailed For the past few days there
was fair demand for cotton for August
delivery, but since this has been about
supplied. there will probably not be a
great deal dong until buyers enter the
market for cotton for September deliv-
cry Reports of rains during the day had
a good effect. These were mostly in the
Caroinas. The wholesale markets closed
steady. The following resume of the diff
ferent markets will show the tone and
quotations at the close to-day:

COTTON.

The cotton market closed steady and I'M
changed to-day, with limited demand for
immediate cotton. II is said the greater
part of the demand for August cotton has
been about supplied SO that what trans
actions are now being made, or soon will
be made, will be for September delivery.
Sales of so bales were reported at the Cot
ton Exchange. For a time there was a
pretty spirited demand. but this seems to
have been supplied. The trade look for
a big demand from interior mills this sea-
son, though it is not generally believed
tehy will enter with the rush they did last
season. The days receipts were 1893
bales The stock is 1880. against u, 1872 last
year.
