BANKER CLEWs' VIEWS.
The Financial Outlook as Seen From
Wall Street.

VIII street.
New York, Sept There is a decid-
ed difference of opinion about the fu-
ture of the stock market. A great deal
of talk is heard about important pend
ing deals and the determination of the
big holders to put the market higher.
These rumors may and may not be
true. That negotiations of great i'm
portance are still going on is very
likely, Because some of the plans in
augurated last spring were materially
checked by the Northern Pacific crash,
by the steel strike and the corn crop
damage. Presumably these negotia-
tons will soon be pushed to completion
because of the financial advantage to
the participating corporations; and.
when conditions permit, the securities
of these corporations will reflect such
advantages in probably higher prices.
Until the community of interest idea
has been extended to all the railroads
of the country, we may expect to hear
of such movements, and no doubt spec
ulation will eventually be greatly slim
ulated thereby. Moreover, the rail-
roads entering such arrangements are
reaping the benefit of better rates,
which in many cases are yielding much
larger gross earnings in spite of fire.

very unlikely to take the public into

we advise selling on the rallies and
buying only on the pronounced de-

CLOTH MARKET FEvERIsH.
Uncertainty in Cotton Situation
Sends IL Up and Down.

Manchester. Sept. s.-The market
during the week past has been feverish
and unsettled. owing to the uncertain
ties of the cotton situation. Actual
business in yarns and cloths has been
Ineager.
The decline of the first half of the
week, and the subsequent recovery
alike initiated against operations. Ur-
til there shall be some stability in
cotton a serious resumption of business
is doubtful. II is admitted that the sta
tistical position in Liverpool is such
as to justify higher rates in the imme-
diate future. Supplies are not coming
forward sufficiently well to relieve the
market.
On the other hand. the position Of the

Matters of Interest to Shippers and
Mariners.
The backwardness of the cotton crop
is being felt some by the inland steam
boats, which have brought very little
cotton to Savannah since the opening
of the new season. Light freights are
looked for, however, even when the
time for an active movement comes,
because of the prospective light cotton
yield on both sides of the river between
here and Augusta. Speaking of the out
look yesterday a steamboat man said:
The inland lines generally look to
cotton for much of their fall freight,
but according to our information the
crop will be short one along the riv-
er, hence the movement will be re-
stricted. 1t seems strange that favor
able crop reports should come from the
interior of Georgia and South Carolina.
ard that the yield should be restricted
in the river sections. Unless the pro-
duction in other parts of the country is
large it may be that the lesser yield in
the river country may be slight help
in stimulating higher prices.

The Two States is at Rourke & Sons

gines arrive. They will be delivered at
Rourke's wharves, and set up in the
new boat promptly. Until recently ii
was expected to have the boat in COM
mission by Sept. Is but it has since
been found that she will probably not
be ready for service before Oct. !. This
will not inconvenience the company,
however, as the lateness of the cotton
crop in this section relieves them from
engagements for awhile which they at
first thought they would have to pro-
vide for. When finished the Two States
will be a model carrier. The builders
are not after speed particularly, but
they hope to have her make a satisfac-
tory schedule for the company's pa
irons.

be begun at Norfolk on a 81, 900 900

thirty persons were rtsked in what was pro.
nounced the most curious accident that has

A crowded electric cur. going at full

very force OF its momentum wound the
wire around itsel:. In less than q second
the thirty passengers were hemmed In BY

OF the occasion, for. with the wire flashing
