STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Aug. 21.-Today'S market for
stocks was practically a duplication of
yesterdays except that the final reaction
on traders profit taking was rather more
marked, with the result that the table of
gains and losses than yesterday. The
prevailing tone of the market was firm
to strong up to the irregular closing on
the reaction. The character of the buy
ing made it very evident that it repre-
scented the opinions of professional
traders as to future values rather than
the convictions of investors. There was
some evidence also of operations by pools
formed by the larger class OF traders
What motives actuated these operations
the public was left to conjecture. There
was quite an active demand for the
Wabash securities, which lifted them at
one time u to rs. There was continued
buying of the Coalers, which was based
on the showing disclosed by the Fries an
nual report, which shows substantial
increase in gross earnings, notwith-
standing a considerable falling off in the
tonnage transported. demonstration OF
the greater stability of rates maintained
among the anthracite carriers by reason
of the extension of community of inter-
ests. The coming monthly increase of
ten cents on ton for anthracite also
counted. The Erie stocks themselves
sold Oft on account of some unexplained
remarks of the Chairman in his report
regarding the approach of time when
arrangements for new capital can be
made. There was some continued buying
from Western sources of the grain car
rying roads, which was apparently for
short account. Some revision of pessi-
mistic views regarding the corn crop
seemed to be the cause of this covering
The United States Steel stocks were
almost dormant and were merely stea iy.
These stocks have apparently arrived at
stage where they are unaffected bv
strike news. The sterling exchange
market resumed its downward course
again today and offerings of bills against
grain exports were reported in increa sed
supply, with a sprinkling of cotton bills.
The continued ease of the london money
market and the further drop in call loans
there today to l Per cent gives grouud
for some expectation that the Bank OF
England rate will be reduced tomorrow.

New York. August 21.-There has been
more business today than of late in the
general run of Gotten goods but the mar
ket continues quiet. The advancing ten
dency of raw cotton tends to correct some
weakness in occasional lines of cotton
goods. Print cloths are dull at previous
prices. Prints steady with average sales.
Mems wear woolens and worsteds firm in
staple lines, fancies irregular. Dress
goods dull and featureless.
COTTON.
New York, August 21.-The cotton mar
ket opened quiet and firm with prices
three to five points higher and after the
call turned strong and scored additional
gains on brisk buying for both accounts
from all quarters. This further evidence
of inherent strength originated chiefly in
bullish Liverpool cables, though bad Texas
and South Atlantic States crop accounts
helped materially to create bullish conf
dence. Before midday October had reached
752 and January 1863 on active support
from the room and outside interests and
for a time all indications pointed to sig
nal additional gains before the close OF
the session. But after the English mar
profits under which prices slowly eased
off. The bulk of this sort of trading
came in the afternoon and was accelera-
ted by official reports of light to hard
general rains in Texas. The Central dis
trict of that State received trace to
68 inch at six stations, while in some
nineteen stations reported rain. More
over, private afternoon Texas kilograms
declared rain was still falling over the
Northern and Central sections. AS the
New Orleans market responded readily to
the wet weather news room operators
were the more willing to be Influenced.
Yet evidence of great strength in South
ern spot markets and an evidence of is
in spot cotton here, tended to make short
selling unpopular. In the last hour efforts
were made to rally the market to the
high point of the day, but support was
slow in coming forward while prOfttak
ing on each point rise made the task
difficult one. At the close the market
was steady and net five to seven points
higher. Late trading was mostly profess
sional, though the South and warehouses

Mr.. j. F. Harris, president of the
company. returned yesterday from the
West Fisher. where he has been for some
time making an extended eXamina ton
Of the property OF his company and while
there he caused the men working on the
property to start an up-raise from the
end of an S0-foot tunnel for the purpose
of determining the width of the vein at
that place. At the time he left to come
out these men were IS feet above the roof
of the tunnel and all Of that distance was
in ore and the upper wall was not yet
encountered. How much wider the vein
is is not known.
From all this ore Mr. Harris contin-
ually made panning tests as the men
went through and in no instance did he
fail to get immense results. there be-
ing long strings of color in every pam
ming. The news of the strike spread rap
idly throughout the camp and men from
all sections came to verify the reports.
There was also quite a number of out
siders in the camp looking at various
properties and all of them went at once
to see the find.
1t is understood that several offers were
made for a controlling interest in the
company, but it is officially given out
that none of these offers have been ac-
cepted. 1t will probably be the plan
Of the company to continue the develop
ments to determine the extent of the find
and then make arrangements looking to
the placing of machinery on the mine.
