STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Aug. 14.-There was an
other buoyant uprush of prices to-day
in further recovery from the extreme
depression of last week. So violent
did the movement become that it was
regarded with some suspicion, and pro-
fessional traders became very watch
full for symptoms of reaction in order
to seize a ripening opportunity for
shift to the short side for a turn
The market showed abundant evil
dence of leadership and skillful man
agement and was held by transferring
bull operations from one stock or group
of stocks to another, taking profits in
the one as buying was shifted to an
other. News seemed to have nothing
to do with the advance beyond the
fact that the market had turned Lit
tie was heard of yesterdays numerous
stories regarding Reading, which rang
ed over a wide field of credulity, and
that stock was steadily under pressure
to take profits all day, with the sus-
tanning strength at other points in the
list. 1t was not at any time more
than a fraction over last night, and
for the greater part of the day was be-
low.
The early strength in the market was
most conspicuous in the Western grain
carrying railroads, and the principal
buying shifted afterwards to the East
ern part of the map, led by New York
Central, and followed by the other
trunk line stocks. London was re-
ported as eager buyer of New York
Central, but no other news was forth
coming to explain the strength in the
stock The United States Steel stocks
Jagged in the upward movement. and
were somewhat affected by the reports
of extensive shutting down of mills
in Western Pennsylvania and Eastern
Ohio. Amalgamated Copper was help
ed by a rise in the price of the metal
here. A feature of the days news was
the report of sales of cash wheat at
Minneapolis for dollar a bushel Pre-
liminary estimates of the weeks cur
rency movement pointed to a cash
gain by the banks this week of nearly
So, 100000. The violent upward move
ment of 512 points, to so, in Amalga-
mated Copper on dealings in nearly
100000 shares sustained the latter mar
ket, which had shown signs of hesita-
ton. AS it was, last prices were often
a little below the best, but the closing
was strong and active.
There were few heavy spots in the
bond market, but the tone was gener-
ally strong. Total sales, par value,
$3,660,000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.
Total sales of stocks to-day were

..Monte Cristo's', BANQUET at Sea.

From the New York Sun.
From Frenchman's Bay to the New
York Navy Yard there came yesterday
detailed accounts of a unique dinner
given on the high seas to the enlisted
men aboard the United States ship
Culgoa, on Sunday last, by Steward
]. F. McFarlan, the Captain Monte
Cristo' of enlisted sailormen.
McFarlan, the Sir Bountiful of the
ocean, enlisted six months ago, prefer
ring, as he said, to serve his country
as a jackie rather than go into bust
ness for himself. He was reported to
be wealthy in his own right, and the
sailors. dubbed him Captain Monte
Cristo."
While he was stationed at the New
York yard, six days in the week he
lived on the humble fare Of 'Binnocle
Bill" but on the seventh he dined in
the Waldorf-Astoria. His nearest rel
atives are wealthy residents of Web
ster N. Y.
Recently Captain Monte Cristo" was
made steward of the Culgoa. To cele-
bate his Gath birthday he gave the din
ner.
Elaborate and embossed menu cards
were printed in letters of gold. A pic
ture of the ship headed the list of edi-
the names of all McFarlan's enlisted
comrades. This is what the bold sailor
men fell to-" while their officers ate
humber fare in the ward rooms:

"Ah! here's the grog," shouted an
other, as cafe noir was announced with
an accent.
The band insisted on serenading
Captain Monte Cristo," while a score
of comrades did a hornpipe on the
tables. Monte" was then crowned with
an instrument made of tobacco plugs,
while the jolly crew sang
Here's to McFarlan, a wizard indeed,

WHAT 1T COSTS TO CROW COTTON.

Atlanta Journal: when began
growing cotton it was worth about 20
cents a pound" said Hon. ]. Pope
Brown in the lobby of the Piedmont
Hotel. Then / had to learn how to
plant and harvest il so as to make it
profitable at cents, s cents, Z cents
and so on down the scale. of course.
t knocked us out when it got down to
cents. My experience is that it costs
ieve that it can be planted, cultivated,
picked, ginned, etc, for less than 6
sents a pound. With the present pros
pect it looks as IL the farmers are GO
ing to get good prices for their cotton
this autumn. The farmers certainly
deserve this prosperity in prices, as
they have been at the mercy of the
spectators for many years"

There are several schooners in port
loading lumber at present. The COM
ing week will probably witness the
clearing of a number of cargoes of lum-
Der for the North.
The report of the Bureau of Naviga-
ton in the Department of Commerce
and Labor on the construction of YES
sells during the month of July shows
that III vessels of 2546O gross tons were
built In the United States and official
~ numbered during the month. OF
this total twenty-nine, with aggregate
tonnage of 1,949, were wooden sailing
vessels; seventy-six, with aggregate
tonnage Of ASH, were wooden steam
vessels, and twelve, with aggregate
tonnage of is, 999, were steel steam YES
seis. BY far the greater part of the
tonnage, 1S,412, was constructed on the
Great Lakes, where there were bullt
two wooden sail vessels of twenty tons,
fifteen wooden steam vessels of 29S
tons, and nine steal steam vessels of
1904 tons.
Interest in sail tonnage continues of
fairly liberal character, orders for
ports being quite numerous in the mar
ket. Rates tor the latter show a stead
lily hardening tendency the quotation
now standing firm at 1925 Brunswick
and $6.75 Jacksonville to New York.
Long voyage tonnage is in demand,
but the supply of suitable vessels is
limited. West India freights remain
quiet. Coal to Eastern ports is in de-
mand, with rates nominally unchanged.
For steamers from Gulf ports grain
there is rather more inquiry in anticl-
patton of free receipts from interior
points during the coming month.
Thence TO United Kingdom Continent
the current rate for full grain is Is Sd
berth terms. Some few Atlantic or
ders for naval stores, etc, to the con-
tinent are being executed upon the Da-
sis of previous rates. Other depart
ments are unchanged. New York
