By Private Wire to Sledge Com. Co.
 Birmingham, June 15.-Liverpool was fairly good, futures being one point high CT to one and a half lower. and spots un- changed. New York opened firm at one to three points advance on the old and three to seven higher on the new posi- tions Buying was almost wholly for shorts, by way of evening up their com mitments over Sunday. The Chronicle failed to shed any light and fell flat There were further showers In the Atlantic states, but weather conditions were gem erally satisfactory Trading was very small. Final figures were one to three points up on the old and six to eight up on the new.
 Bradstreet's reports indicate that crop conditions have improved during the week, though, it is added the low con- dition Is apt to offset some, if not all, the increase in acreage. The demand for cot ton goods has improved during the week. sales of regulars reaching 100000 pieces, while dry goods have been rather brisk.
 R. G. Dun & Co. says: Reasonable weather has somewhat aroused the dry goods market. There is not yet such &C., tivity that dealers are overwhelmed, but the various divisions of manufacture are fairly occupied and heavy supplies of print cloths at Fall River have decreas- ed''
 Advices from Manchester, too, state that the Indian demand has been percep- tibly better.
 There Is a general belief that the Chi cago crowd is tired carrying the long end of the Julys and that the position will need strengthening or recede during the coming week. though manipulation still dominates the summer positions and makes them anything but safe. The new crop positions will be covered by the weather map. particularly by weather re- ports from the Atlantic states and the Southwest.

New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, June 15.-The market for spot cotton was very quiet today and but little trading was indulged in, the total sales recorded reaching only 700 bales of spots, of which 200 bales were sold after hours last evening and 350 bales to arrive. As has been the case during the past three days, buyers and sellers are stand ing measurably apart in their views with no marked disposition to give way on either side. Quotations unchanged. A fairly good business was transacted dur ing the short session today in the market for contracts, though the bulk of the trading was apparently in the nature of room work, induced by a quick success sion of moderate fluctuations. There was little in the position of the market to at tract outside interest.
 New Orleans scored an initial improve ment of to points on all positions. and f1uctuated over a range of to points thereafter finally closing at net gains for the day of 6 points on September and 5 points on each of the other months.

 ran x Co.
 New York, June 15.-The sudden and somewhat cratic changes in fluctuations yesterday and again today can only be accounted for by the extreme narrowness of the trading in cotton. When the pit found yesterday that there was prospect of clearing weather in the Atlantic States and rains in Texas a number attempted to take profits and the market declined 6 points easily. This morning the price ad- vanced as easily as it declined yesterday, with no evidence of any pressure to sell cotton. In all probabilities one-quarter of
 ne amount of the cotton sold yesterday yas bought back this morning and at the
 anne time on this limit August sold up within points of high level of the week, and January within ? points of yesterdays price. Rains arc again reported from the Atlantic States making three days con tinuous downpour in many sections. At the same time the prospect of rain in Texas seemed slight The area of low pressure centered over that state yester- day was reported in Missouri today, which has changed the direction of winds and it Is doubtful if that state gains any rain during the next forty-eight hours

CABLE NEWS A STAND OFF

New York, June 15-The cotton market opened firm with prices unchanged to points higher, and continued to advance most of the early session on room and outside buyelg, July reaching SPA; August 7.69 and January 7.27, or to points above last months close. The cable news was a stand off. near months in Liverpool were a shade higher, and far months a little lower than looked for. Yet domestic news averaged up much in favor of the market. Sales of over 100000 pieces reg ulars and odd goods this week in Fall River mills at unchanged to 1-16 cent higher prices; rumors of continued rains over the south Atlantic states, bullish Chronicle review of the week In the cot ton belt, and reports that southern spot markets were again on the upturn all served to prevent a resumption of last nights selling movement, and to stimu- late buying for both accounts. Crop news from Georgia, the Carolinas and Alabama was far from favorable while scarcity of labor was complained of in all parts of the belt. Today's port re- ceipts were liberal, but cut little figure as an influence. The market closed net 1 to points higher.

unfavorable this morning, while the trade conditions reflected the first improvement in six months.
 This same connection will call attention to the enormous export demand for American cotton shipments this week. be- ing nearly three times last years and last weeks nearly double last years.
 For two weeks over 150.000 bales have been shipped, or compared with about 7O,0O0 last year. The talings by American spinners have averaged over 16,00O bales, as compared with less than 800 bales last year.
 The market ruled very steady today, and few were inclined to look for any change in the character of the market until weather improves very decidedly.

THE SCHLEY INQUIRY.
Lieutenant Commander HodGson Pros
duces Some Correspondence on
nn Alleged Colloquy.

Washington, Oct. 7.-Only one ses-
sion of the Schley court of inquiry
was held Saturday. An adjournment
until Monday was taken at one
o'clock in order to allow court and
counsel to recuperate after an ardu-
Gus weeks labor. Practically the
only witness of the day was Lieuten-
ant Commander Albon c. Hodgson,
who was navigator of the flagship
Brooklyn during the campaign of
1898, and almost his entire time was
taken up with the reading of corre-
spondence between himself and Ad-
miral Schley concerning an alleged
colloquy between them during the
battle of Santiago, which the witness
was reported to have detailed to a
newspaper correspondent. The cor
respondence has been published and
this fact rendered the proceeding of
comparatively little interest. Lieut.
Doyle was also on the stand again,
but only for the purpose of correcting
his former testimony.
During the day Judge Advocate
Lemly made another statement con-
cerning Admiral SIMPSONS dispatch
of May 90, 1s0s, relating especially
to the admirars use of the word "San-
tiago" where it was alleged he had
intended to use the word "Cienfue-
gos." He produced the original copy
which showed that the name appears
Santiago" and that it appears over
an erasure. He called attention to
the fact that in the press copy book
it is Santiago, which shows that the
change was made before the letter
was press copied and sent.
