COTTON OPENING
 BARELY STEADY Liverpool Weakness Extended to This Side of Trade LOCAL LONGS SOLD OUT Prices Were Unable to Withstand the Strain and Worked Point By
 Point Lower-The Close
 Was Easy.
LOCAL LONGS SOLD OUT

New York. August 21.-The cotton mar ket opened barely steady with prices to points lower in keeping with weak ness In the Liverpool market, where prices had dropped some ? to zis points. There were foreign selling orders here and the more prudent local longs sold out for turn. believing the recent ad- vance too great on the bullish factors at work and that a largo scattering long interest had accumulated. The Wall street bull element came to the rescue soon after the call and bid prices upward rapidly, January 7.92 while August man aged in some way to reach s.56. But at these figures the realizing movement by scattering longs again set in on a liberal scale; prices were unable to withstand the strain and worked point by point lower. Reports of showers over the een- tral and eastern belt with a forecast for showery weather generally tonight and tomorrow, thus indicating d break in the hot wave west of the Mississippi river helped to undermine bull confidence. Trading was spasmodcally active throughout the session and in the last hour was general with liquidation over topping all other operations. Fear of August notices tomorrow led longs to dis gorge holdings In that delivery with the result that the prices broke twelve points from the top to s.44. Later months were weak in sympathy. The close was easy and net six to seven points lower. Total sales estimated at 100000 bales.
 New York, August 2.-Cotton quiet: middling Sc; gross receipts 1231, sales 40, stock S1.5so, exports to the continent 1892.

CATrLE-There was a heavier run Of
cattle here today than was generally eX-
pected and the trains were again late In
arriving, In fact II was the middle OF the
forenoon before there were enough cattle
on hand to attract the attention OF buyers,
so that II was late before much business
was transacted. When the market finally
opened, however. II was evident that buyers
wanted the cattle ana the prices paid could
be quoted fully steady with yesterday so
far as the better grades were concerned.
There was about the usual proportion OF
cornfed steers included In the receipts and.
although the market was slow In opening,
just about steady prices were paid. The
warmed-up cattle were OF course neglected,
the same as usual, but still even those
brought lust about the same prices that
were paid yesterday,
Tn COW market was fairly active and
steady. Packers seemed to want the can
ners and medium grades as well as the
better kinds OF cornfeds, so that sellers
did not experience much trouble In selling
out at steady prices
Bulls. veal calves and stays did not show
enough change TO be worthy of mention.
There was a small supply OF stockers and
feeders in the yards and the demand was
also very limited. Very few buyers were In
from the country, 30 that spectators did
not care to buy any large number. The bet

troub bic at steady prices, but when il came
to the common stun sellers found II al
most impossible to get a buyer TO even
look at them.
There were not enough western range
