MARKETS FOR FUTURES
PRICES 8 TO 4 POINTS HIGHER
AT THE OPENING.
Bears Seemed Averse to Carrying
Their Contracts Over Sunday
and Risking Developments
in the Crop Country.

New York. Aug. 23.-The cotton market
opened very steady in tone with prices
3n4 points higher on active general buy
ing, in which the August and september
shorts at once took the lead. There was
comparatively little cotton for sale and
bear operators were slow to take the
short side until more was known of the
intentions of the August longs. The Liv-
erpool cables reflected nothing more than
moderate response to the frmness here
yesterday, while the news from the crop
country was better so far as the weather
was concerned. The crop accounts, how
ever, continued of a pessimistic order

and for tonight and for tomorrow fore

tons of the Western belt. The first
wave of buying. carried August to S.52
and January to 7.95. Then came a light
profit taking movement under which
prices eased off to last nights bids. This
in turn was followed by another upward
movement on fresh demand from the
shorts. who seemed to he very uneasy
and averse to going home on the bear
side and risk over Sunday Developments

shorts in particular were uncomfortable
and bid that option u1 to S14 Trading

New York. Aug. 23-The Financier says:
The striking feature of the official state
ment of the New York associated banks
last week was the reduction of $l0660, 100
in loans. This was most likely in part
due to the calling in of loans by some of
the banks which desired thereby to rec
tify their position as regards reserve, but
it was probably largely caused by the
cancellation by borrowers or large SYndl-
cate loans and which have tended mate
rally to increase the loan accounts of
the banks in recent weeks. The cash
changes shown by the official statement
again fail to correspond with the eSti-
mates based upon the traceable move
ments OF money during the week, these
estimates showing gain of S3l6,100 in
cash, while the official statement indi-
Gates net loss Of $377.3oo-specie having
been increased $724, 20O. while legal tenders
were decreased 81 ,101 500. The deposits
were reduced 81 5000. an amount great
er by Bliss 500 than that called for by the
decrease of loans and the net loss Of
cash; therefore the statement is techni-
cally out of proof. The statement was
probably made on slightly declining aver
ages for cash. the transfers Of currency
through the suh-treasury to New Orleans
and Cincinnati and the direct movement
of money by the banks to the South hav-
ing been largest after the middle of the
week. The circulation shows an increase
of S3O9.Sh following gain in the pre-
vious week of 900 indicating that the

augmenting the volume of their circulat-
ing notes. The daily average of bank
clearnGs for the week was S23O 900 0OO
This shows a slight increase compared
with the previous return which indicated
n daily average of 1926 oOo, 900 and the gain
was probably due to shift of accounts in
Cdent to settlement for the Oregon Short
Line bonds. The statement is. on the
whole, quite encouraging. indicating in
the reduction of loans. a conservative
policy by the banks. borrowers do not

Deliveries arose 1-2-64d with the tone

were in the nature of realizing by some
recent purchasers over Sunday. but fresh
complaints of crop deterioration from va
rious points in Mississippi and Louisiana
reinstated the steady tone and a mod
crate improvement followed. Closing quo
tations are II points higher on August
and to points up on other months.
A genuine conversion of sentiment in
favor of cotton has doubtless been ac-
complished recently by the unanimity of
reports of crop deterioration covering
sections in every State in the belt and
ii is very probable that a more elevated
range of prices would be on record. if
the trade was satisfied to the manner
in which offerings of new receipts will
be extended. Meanwhile there are the
weekly and monthly government reports
on the crop condition to be digested and
the thought of these publications alone
is likely to act as preventive against
active selling operations.

Chicago Grain and Provision,

Chicago Aug. 3.-Corn was the dull
leader in an active grain market again
tocay. Fears of frosts in the corn fields
helped in natural advance. but there
was something of manipulative aspect
to trade that aroused a nervous dread
In spectators who went short yesterday.
In the other pits much the same condi-
tons as prevailed of late were factors,
weather fears. Wheat was aided mate
rally reduced receipts and immense
export clearances. AT the close septem-
Der corn was / 5-s higher; September
wheat IA up: September oats IA lower
and September provisions 1-2 to 10 cents
higher. Corn ruled strong. At the out
set there was little offered and prices
dipped momentarily. but at once good
demand set in and bulls let go of nothing
save at god profits. Influential houses
took on big quantities of both September
and December while sellers who wanted
to let go were only scattered me cool
ness of the weather gave rise to some
apprehension of frosts and fear of that
was augmented by dispatches from the
interior which stated that frosts already
had done some damage. This steadied
December and September, which needed
only London manipulation to cause 1t to
jump upwards rapidly. Yesterdays shorts
covered and September sold from So L.
to IS rs and closed 1 5-S up at So SIS. Re
ceipts II cars. five contract.
Leading elevator interests were under
wheat. September had a good buying
support after the somewhat dull opening
and although trade lapsed at times bust
ness in general was good and the tone
firm. At the start cables were lower.
September opened 3-S to is down at Il
to Il IA. Corn strength started a re-
action and fair cash demand and ex-
port clearances equalling 1910 bushels
put September to 70 Is The local crowd
was inclined to the bear side, but changed
front to some extent on fears of manipu-
lation in the September option. Receipts
northwest were light and primary points
were not reporting as large arrivals
There was fair selling at the strong
point and September slipped back to d
barely firm close, IA cent higher al

grade; Minneapolis and Duluth reported
