A BOOMING WHEAT MARKET.

Yesterdays cotton market was a re-
ceptacle for varied news, In the mingling
thereof doubts fostered lack of confidence
that is always detrimental to the course of
values. In the main the amount OF actual
stun apparent TO the information seeker
constituted the fountain from which bear
ish blessings flowed. Comparatively the
weight Of evidence in this regard vested
against the bull and the hammerer needed
no further incentive to drive. The into
sight ending with the year exceeded that
of the former period by nearly 10000 bales.
Estimates ecllpsed last years and the sea
ward movement was little more than n
"stand.off." while beyond the immediate
forecasts advices indicated sharp slacken-
ing. A contemplation of the semi-weekly
statistics prompted holders to liqdidate on
the spot and under this power prices sank
persistently. rebound occurred at times
and appeared in evidence on the windup.
The scalper occupied a front-row seat with

statement The amount for Texas and
Indian Territory reached 2.0G3 sGS bales.
Drawing an average percentage from the
proportion marketed for the samc time in
the three previous years the amount would
indicate crop of 100000, or 100000
less than last season. The method by
which the present crop has been marketed,
however, is one OF the engmns Of the hour.
