STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, August 13.-Tne recuperatlVe
forces in the stock market gathered force
today with the result of a buoyant up
rush in prices on a very animated buying
movement. The date of activity during
he forenoon session of the market prom
ised the largest days business for the cur
rent year. The market afterwards show
cd some signs of WEAKNESS at the rate
of tic movement The recovery was the
result of a series of incidents rather than
any one development. Naturday reaction
from the recently prevailing extreme de
nrcssion was an important factor. Tbs
mere sentimental effect Of the recover,
after the gloom and apprehension thai
have prevailed so long in Wall Street Wa
considerable. Where efforts were made
for a long time past to market securtlet
| that have met with almost no demand
there was substituted lively and urgen;
| demand for stocks and bonds of all grade
today The urgency of some of the buy
| ing and the violent advances in prices
| showed clearly enough that efforts by
distressed shorts to cover their contract,
before the rebound carried prices beyond
their reach, were an important elemen
in the market. Bidding up of prices b!
| Opposing professionals ito fodoe higher
prices out of the bears was another pal
Fable influence. But it was evident be
yond this that there was a large and sub
stantial buying element in the market
which was taking over stocks of all class
e. with freedom and confidence.
The event proves the contention o
those who have maintained that Their
was a large waiting demand for stocks
which would come into the market freel
when the liquidation seemed to be conclud
ed and prices definitely turned upwards

j
New York. August 13.-Pgices moved
about in an amless and unnterestina
fashion throughout the day Operators
who sold shortly before the close last
night on the report that ten bales of
cotton had been picked and ginned in
one of the Southern counties of Texas,
failed to follow up their aggressiveness
this morning and seemed more inclined
to take in short cotton on any decline
than to sell And as a result of the
covering the market failed to decline
very much and when it was reported that
sales of spot cotton III Liverpool amount
ed to 5000 bales, an advance of several
points took place in the immediate posi-
tions. The New Orleans pool bought
September from 1917 to 1882 about mid
day and there was enough cotton wanted
and quietly absorbed by splnners to hold
prices. On the other hand crop accounts
continued very favorable and the South
sold cotton steadily. 1t Is undoubtedly
too early in the season for the average
operator to assume a definite stand on
the market and not until the cotton crop
is moderately well assured will selling
be in sufficient volume and strength to
cause break. Any decline at this sea-
sen. in view of the conditions surround
ing the cotton industry must be a point
at a time and there will be opposition
to any attempt to break December and
January for some weeks to come. Under
the circumstances We see nothing in the
outlook to change our views of the cot
ton market 1t is altogether too risky
to sell cotton short and on the other
hand prices are very high and we are
growing what is likely to prove the best
crop the South has ever raised. For
these reasons the policy OF buying on de
clines only. and selling on any rally is
likely TO prove the most advantageous.

NEW YORK COTTON.
New York. August 1.-THE cotton marl.-
ct opened steady at unchanged prices to
a decline of 3 points on all except the
March option. which was one point higher.
The declines were in sympathy with lower
Liverpool cables which encouraged real,
izing and perhaps some small sales for the
short account. but there was very little
business of any description and shortly
after the start moderate support from the
clique impaired firmer tone to the mark
ct. while sellers were rendered cautious
by renewed apprehensions as to the tropl-
cal storm, which was again reported to
be headed toward the Gulf States. August
was bid up, to 1914 and September after
some irregularity touched 1898 with the
general list at the best level OF the fore
noon showing net gains of l to IA points.
After this. however, clique support was
partially withdrawn and the generally ia
vorable character of private crop advlces.
together with the favorable showing OF
the weather map encouraged sagglng
tendency which lasted during the balance
az the session. or nearly So for just before
the close there was q sudden renewal OF
the demand for September, and that OPP
ton was finally points up from the bot
tom The rest of the list closed at prac-
tically the low point with August show
ing the greatest loss. The close was
steady net unchanged to Is points lower.
Early there was some talk of low tenn
Ieraturcs in the belt delaying maturity
and this had some influence in restricting
sales. little new crop cotton was re
Hortcd from various Southern points, but
had little influence. Sales estimated 100,
600 bales.
