New York, July 20-The stock market
this morning opened duh and irregular
with speculation showing a hesitatng
tone. The news of the morning did not
cause important changes and the most
depressing feature was a continuation of
bad weather conditions throughout the
corn belt. and their extension to a larger
area, which may be destructive to grow
ing wheat Regarding the labor sltua-
ton the steel strike apparently continues
in a state Of dead lock. while the out
look in the anthracite coal regions was
said to be more reassuring for the oper-
ators. London sent In range of prices
which reflected declines of Il to Y points.
The bureau reported a condition OF ut
ter stagnation in the markets abroad. In
the local market there were very general
expectations of a favorable bank state
ment. Atchison common was under
some pressure with the West again
selling, and the stock declined rather
easy. The steel issues were quite firm,
and the remainder of the Industrial list
was without important change. A few
minutes after the opening the market be-
gan to harden, led by the Changers, and

IL points were reported The steels also

Immediately reflected in rather free of
ferings of stocks and prices yielded sharp
ly. The declines were most pronounced
in the Atchison, Union Pacific, ST. Paul
and Southern Pacific with the rest of
the list showing sympathetic weakness,
and the steels continuing relatively firm.
The bank statement was even more ia
vorable than expected, and exerted an i'm
proving influence on prices. Cash showed
a handsome gain of s61O.7S0. A contrac-
ton in loans of $12 266. 800 and a decline
in deposits and liabilities Of IS, 4SS 800 in
creased the surplus reserves by IS, $4,000,
and the banks showed $21, 900 1856 above the
lawful requirements. The publication of
the statement caused a change of short
commitments throughout the list. The
rally following the bank statement was
not sustained. There was disposition to
sell on the good showing, and prices
broke sharply, particularly in the West

NEW ORLEANS COTTON MARKET.


New Orleans, July 20.-The Chronicle
weekly crop report was very bullish and
caused Liverpool to be better than ex-
pected and our market opened to up
In consequence. A subsequent improve
ment of to 3 points was due TO the
government map showing little or no
rain in the Galveston district, except
Weatherford, 4 inches. However, the adj
vance was almost entirely lost on the
supplementary official report that Fort
Worth had los inches in the past twenty
four hours, and private advices confirm
ing light good showers in Northern and
East Texas. There seems to be consider
able discrepancy between the private and
newspaper reports about rains and the
official government in Texas especially
as the latter has the preference in the
minds of the general public, it would in
dictate that the rains yesterday were not
ample. The market still hinges on the
rainfall west of the Mississippi river and
in our opinion, 1t will require a general
and generous downpour in that section
to cause a marked decline, while a re-
newal of hot, dry weather there would
reflect in higher prices, provided specula-
ton which is almost entirely lacking
would re-enter as a factor in the stua
ton. Trade conditions abroad continue
distinctly unfavorable, especially on the
continent.
