STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, July 12.-Todays stock
market was submitted to another dras-
tic process of liquidation, which caused
some severe losses in the prices of
stocks In the late afternoon there was
substantial rally, which wiped out
important proportions of the extreme
declines. The late recovery was err
ratio, and was unsteadily held. The
closing was irregular, but with prices
near the top on the recovery. There
seemed to be no new causes to induce
the continuance of the selling move
ment beyond those of a technical ma
ture. The bears were the active fac
tor in breaking prices, but the specula-
tors long of stocks stood passive
without any resistance in the shape oil
buying to support the market: The
consequence was that on each raid by
the bears stop loss orders were un-
covered, and speculative margins
wiped out, forcing the brokers' to sell
out their customers to save losses for
themselves. The banks continued keen
ly alert to the course of prices and their
continual demands for additional col
lateral as the fall in prices encroached
upon the margin of valuation as col
lateral compared with the market valu-
alton forced additional liquidation OF.
the exchange. There was selling also
through commission houses from all
quarters by that class of holders which
is discouraged by the mere fact of a
decline and which sells out on the
prospect of getting stocks back at a
lower figure. Rebuying by this class
of holders added to the demand from
the shorts helped the late rally. The
news from the corn belt showed no inn
provement in the view of stock opera
tors, and it was the opening quotations
for corn which toppled over the prices
of stocks after some progress had been
made towards recovery in the early
dealings. The terms of the announced
settlement of the Western freight rate
were also considered unsatisfactory,
owing to the continued detection of one
OF the minor roads in the territory.
The divergence of views between the
conferences on the labor dispute in the
steel trade was the subject of contin-
ued apprehension. The fact that as
surances were given yesterday that an
official statement would probably be
made before the end of the week OF
the terms of the Northern Pacific set
Element caused disappointment over
the non appearance of such a statement
today and caused recurrence OF
uneasiness lest renewed discord should
develop in that quarter. Under the

New York. July 12.-Not only was
Yesterdays decline wiped out in the
local cotton market today, but prices
were advanced to nearly the high level
touched early in the week, on drOuth
news and general belief that the staple
was too low. Trading was active much
of the session and while mainly of pro-
fessional origin, there was goOdly
increase on investment business throug,,
commission houses. The opening was
Wsteady. 1t was plain to all that the
pfS Vas short, and that few looked for
any considerable advance. New Or
leans and Liverpool turned strong af-
ter starting in a rather disappointing
fashion. and completely changed the
plans of the bear contingent here. Cow
ering gave place to short selling and
investment buying to expected liquida-
ton. Prices were quick to respond to
this new order of things and by midday
a sheer uplift of 10 to IL points was
apparent on the more active positions.
Early in the afternoon this improve
ment was increased and the market
was firm on drouth news from pretty
much all over the entire belt, increased
strength of dry goods and print cloth
markets, increased demand for spot
cotton, and increased speculative in
terest on the part of the public anG
Wall street. While the special weather
reports noted hard rains in some parts
of Southern Texas, practically no
moisture fell over the heart of the
Southwestern cotton country nor did
the forecast from Washington indicate
any rain for thirty-six hours. Port re-
ceipts were smaller, New Orleans was
strong and grain houses picked up sew
eral important lines of October. Closed
very steady with prices net II to IA

late rally, which materially modlneu
these declines, was primarily due to the
oversold condition of the market the
bears having operated on the short side
with great boldness throughout the
week. The prospect of a favorable
bank statement was also factor.
There should be net gain to the banks
therefore of at least $1,5O0,O00 on the
week. New York Exchange at Chicago
was quoted at 25 cents premium. NO
doubt is felt that the very large LID
uidation during the week in the stock
market has resulted in contracting the
loan account and thus reducing the re-
serve liabilities.

this port. went aground about eight
miles from Pensacola bar. She is listed

Brayton was also slightly injured.
The storm was one of the widest

lence and reached a wind velocity OF
10 miles an hour, with spurts of 80
miles.
There was great damage to shipping
