In presenting their latest creation in
minstrelsy. Messrs. Primrose & Dock
stader have in store for the public many
new surprises and novel features, as well
as a complete new scenic and lighting
equipment, and give to the public one of
the few frst-class and meritorious min
strel entertainments in the world.
Primrose & Dockstader and their COM
pany of minstrel artists viii be the at
traction at the New National Theatre
for one week, beginning next Monday
night. BY their past they have proven
to theatregoers that minstrelsy is a
choice form of entertainment, when pro-
perly given and is equal to, and in some
respects, superior to the legitimate drama
of today, as its pure and charming mel
ody, wholesome comedy, vocal excel
lence, and varied and entertaining spec
ialties go to make up an entertainment
which can be attended by ladies and
young people, as at no time is it beyond
the limits of propriety in an effort
to be tinde-eicle The Primrose &
Dockstader Company this season is
said TO be unequaled for comedians, vo-
calists. and specialists. The scenic and
lighting effects and costumes are de-
scribed as being universally effective The

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, August 30.-The stock mar
ket made a striking demonstration of
strength today. The increasing DISPOSE
ton to buy stocks as the day progressed
indicated that the demand to cover out
standing contracts came largely from the
bear PARTY. There was however, steady
absorption of a number of prominent
stocks which was difficult to explain on
any other basis than as an accumulation,
for what purpose not disclosed. The buy
ing of this character was very obvious
in the Fries. The buying here was very
concentrated and was by brokers usually
employed by the inside interests of the
property A single commission house took
between 10000 and $4,000 shares of the
common and considerable speculative fol-
lowing was attracted some large buying
of this stock coming from Western
sources. Union Pacific, ST. Paul and Atchl-
son showed the bclated effect of the very
large net earnings for July reported
earlier in the week, and Canadian Pacific
and st. Louis and San Francisco continued
to move upward from the same cause.
This was a general influence in holding
the whole railroad list firm. The trans
actions and the movements in general
were not conspicuous. The increase in the
volume or business over yesterday was
mostly confined to the stocks named.
There was considerable demand also for
Amalgamated Copper. The Gould South
westerns were well held to the accom-
paniment of vaguely defined rumors OF
coming developments. The Wabashes
rose also about "a point each and Denver

(By the Associated Press.)

New York, August 3O.-The improve
ment in volume of business this week
has been maintained today in cotton
goods. There have been no changes in
quotations but the tone rules generally
firm. Print cloths are firm for both mar
row and odd goods. Linens are quiet with
an occasionally easier seller. Burlaps
continue dull and prices still tend in
favor of buyers.
New York, August 3O-Cotton futures
opened steady with prices unchanged to
seven points higher on light outside buy
ing, the bulk of which represented over
night Accommodations of a wire order char
acter. This demand was gratified by local
longs who were made bearish by the
special journal of Commerce monthly re-
port on crop conditions, showing 70.2 as
against 77.3 by the Government last
month, and as against general expecta-
tions of 81 or 6S Immediately after the
call prices weakened six to seven points
under selling for both accounts and an
unfavorable turn of the Liverpool market.
Buying orders from the outside were few
and far between, while room bulls were
content to even up and rest on their oars
over the three days adjournment close
at hand. Trade was quiet all the fore
noon with the market rather heavy and
narrow. The cables were about as ex-
pected at the time we opened. though
at one time Liverpool was excited and up
five to six points on n bad scare of shorts.
Weather reports indicated clearing condi-
lions over the central and portions OF
the eastern belt and pointed to cloudy
conditions in Texas with probably rains
in the eastern part of that State. Yet,
reports of rainfall for the past twenty
four hours failed to show any break in
the Texas drought. Soon after midday
the local market steadied several points
on a report that a recount of the Liver
pool stock showed a decrease of 10000
bales. as compared with the official fig
ures cabled this morning-395,O 900 bales
Then came setback under pit selling
for profits, followed by sharp rise on
bulling from scapers. Business was dull
and reflected smaller interest to be
carried ever the holidays than has been
noticed in many weeks if not in many
months. In the last half hour room
scalping sales forced prices off to low
figures on the day. The market was
finally quiet and steady with prices net
four to seven points lower.
