Cotton Futures.

New York, July 27.-The cotton mar
ket opened firm and 5 to s points higher
on bullish English cables, a very unfa-
vorable review of the week south by
The Chronicle and improved accounts
from southern spot markets. Soon at
ter the call the pit sold for profits and
caused h market to waver for a time.
Under this selling, October went OF to
1.3S, January to IA and March to las.
The trade was bullish at heart, but
having fresh in mind recent trying ex-
periences on the long side, were slow
to reenter h market. Foreign inter-
ests bought the near months quite ex-
tensively, the south was disposed to
sell some on the rise and Wall street
took profits on moderate amounts OF
January. Speculation was very tame,
at best, and reflected extreme caution
on both sides. The ath reports
showed scattering showers over most
OF the belt, but no hard rains. Private
crop reports were ~unfavorable as a
whole. Receipts at the ports continued
light, while ~claArances for export were
disposed to increase. The visible sup
ply during the past week lost nearly
200,0 900 bales. European spinners were
again reported as working under almost
bare poles in the. matter of supplies,
but were now bidding freely for raw
cotton.
The market for futures closed steady.
with prices net 10 points lower ON July,
but 4 to 10 points higher on later
months.

CIGAR MAKERS STRIKE
The Resfstencia Union Men at lamp
Go Out.

Tampa, Fla, July 26.-The Resisten-
On cigar makers walked out on
a general strike today. Noon was set
as the time for receiving the answer
from the manufacturers and this was
received u~nfavorably. 1t had been
agreed hat the days work was to be
completed and all material worked up.
The men employed at F. Garcia &
Brothers, Bustillo Brothers and Diaz &
La Paz, and Parsons walked into the
streets at noon and did not finish the
day, as agreed.
This morning Ell Arte factory was
threatened by a letter which said that
if the international men were not out
and the factory closed by noon, armed
men would appear and throw them
bodily into the streets. A guard of
deputies vas placed al the factory at
noon. A small crow gathered in the
street about the factory and two wo-
men raised some excitement by trying
to get their husbands out, but, beyond
this. there was no sign of trouble.

RELIEF FROM THE DROUGHT
A Slight Improvement in Some Sec
tions-Temperature a Little Lower

Washington. July 26.-The past TWEEN
ty-four hours probably have been the
most favorable to the states Of the corn
belt since the existing hot wave began
nearly forty days g Rains, gener-
ally light in amount "a fallen in
western Kansas western Nebraska,
southwestern Missouri. central Iowa.
Arkansas and a little in Oklahoma and
the prospects seem to be favorable for
a continuation tomorrow of more num-
erous showers in the section covered by
these states and territories.
On Sunday showers are looked for in
northern Illinois and northern Indiana.
Still there has been 40 general rain,
of which the crops stand in SO much
need and there are no immediate pros
poets Of any. On the whole the weather
bureau officials here regard the stu
alton as somewhat improved. Inciden-
tai to the rains, the temperatures off,
cially reported today were somewhat
lower than on yesterday evening. How.
ever they range from 80 to 100 in the
corn belt.
Conditions will remain practically the
same in the drought section during
Saturday and Sunday and the weather
will continue very hot with the posi-
bility Of relief from scattered thunder
storms.

New York STOCK Market

New York. July 27.-Not much COM
ment is required upon todays STOCK
market. The same conditions of apathy
and inertness that have been gaming
force all the week prevailed. Trading
was of u~nimportant dimensions n the
price movements were without slgn1h-
canoe. The public was entirely unrep-
resented in the market, and the meager
trading represented only the efforts or
professional operators of the smaller
class to induce some movement OF
prices tina would offer them a days
profits, whether On the upgrade or the
downgrade. The dealings in the Unit
ed States Steel stocks, and, to a less ex-
tent, in the ranger and PaclfcS, over
Swallowed the rest of the market. The
steel stocks were strong on the same
| kind of operations as those of yester-
day, seemingly based on a belief in an
| early triumph Of the corporation in he
| strike contest. The common stock rose
an extreme ~ and the preferred rs. .
The corn carrying roads were bene-
fitted by the weakness OF the corn
market n reports of the breaking OF
the western drought. A number of
| minor stocks moved apparently from
| individual causes. The American loco
| motive stocks and international power
| were sharply depressed. The Canadian
| Pacifics subsidiary roads responded to
| the recent strength in that stock.
The Tobacco stocks, Peoples Gas,
Amalgamated Copper. American Cotton
| Oil, the Virginia Carolina Chemical
stocks and a few others were notably
strong. Traders sold the market on the
increase in loans reported by the bank
statement, but they induced no follow
ing and covered their shorts before the
close. which was steady at the recovery.
The week just passed has given pref
ty clear videnc of the elimination for
/ tho time ar least of the SnQcnlatlOn
for the decline in stocks and for. the
rise in grains which has been going on
in the various markets during the whole
of July. The effect or the stock mar
ket has been feverish and irregular
movements of prices, with narrowing
fluctuations and decreasing volume of
business. According to the invariable
rule in speculative movements of any
dimensions. this one has overdone it
self. The consequence has been reac-
ton from the recently prevailing ten
dency. Stocks have and
grains have relapsed.
The beginning of this week in a small
way Of the transfer Of currency to the
interior to move the crops calls atten-
ton to the fact that recent liquidation
in the stock market a as it's object
preparation to meet this requirement,
and not to supply means for a renewed
speculation in stocks.
Foreign money market look for a
demand for gold from New York in the
autumn, but as to it's ability to meet
it. authorities are not agreed. The
speculative outlook from the present
level of prices is thus seen to be much
mixed.
Business in railroad. bonds has been
or a small scale, except in a few issues
that are related in value to stocks by
convertible rights.
United States refunding rs have been
advanced Il per cent. on call for the
