STOCKS AND BONDS

New York, June 26-DeaIings in stocks
were even smaller, the fluctuations were
even narrower than yesterday With the
cessation of the liquidation in the Uni
ted States Steel End SIS the activity of
the bond market also fell off to nominal
proportions. Even the usual Friday ten
dency to close up outstanding contracts
and get away to the country for Saturday
which gives an occasional impetus to Fri
days business during the summer season
failed to make an impression on the
seml-stagnation of the market. There was
as little response to the seemingly favor
able news of the day as there was yes
terday to the rather unfaYorable CON
dftions The whole market for stocks
seemed to be a mere feeble echo of the
active speculation in the cotton and ce-
real markets What strength was shown
in stocks was associated with the reac-
tion in wheat and corn. The preliminary
figures of the currency movement indi-
cate large receipts and smaller shipments
than last week so that the weeks loss
to the Sub-Treasury which includes the
payments for the gold exported, has been
more than Offset providing a net gain
in cash of nearly 100000.

one, and has a very disastrous effect, not
only on speculation but upon legitimate
trade. 1t Is reported that half a million
spindles will go out in Fall River, Mass
next week, and each day now some mill
closes down, owing to the high price Of
cotton and losses involved in any attempt
to convert raw material into manufac
tured products As long as this is true
and consumption decreases with every IN
crease in the advance in price, the more
open becomes the question of success in
such unfortunate undertaking as Is
now being witnessed
Under the circumstances we do not care
to undertake any but the most conserva-
tive and cautious kind OF tades in che
cotton market The level Of prices has
been advanced to a point where trading
in any option up to and including October
is dangerous. AS regards December and
January at ten cents a pound, the situa-
tion is perplexing The crop is improving
and yet with a corner on in the old crop
months, and the average condition of the
plant still low, we cannot advise short
selling. Since the crop is improving we
are not inclined to hrv December and
January, except on substantial breaks.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON,

New Orleans, June 26-The spot cot
ton market was quiet today but very
firm with offerings decidedly light. Quo
tations for good ordinary and higher
grades advanced 5-16.
In the future market the ring was
much quieter than for several days and
in spite of the fact that notices for about
100. 900 bales in New York and New Or
leans together had been served the bulls
remained in complete control of the sit
uation and at one time sent the new
crop months up for wide advances 1t was
estimated that notices for $4,000 bales
had been served and promptly stopped
in the local market and notices Ior be-
tween $4,000 and 10000 bales in the New
York market had been served on the
New York bull clique through Frank b.
Hayne, who is in New York for the pur-
pose of handling the notices at that
point. all of which were promptly
stopped. AT the opening September was
II points higher, and the other posi-
tions 2 to above yesterdays closing

but there was nothing doing in the sum

Especial to News and Observer


New York. June 26.-There was a pool
made up among prominent floor brokers
on the cotton exchange here for the
purpose of selling the new crop options
short The pool sold about $4,000 bales
and started in yesterday afternoon to
break the market. They succeeded in
breaking September contracts thcty
points but the loss was recovered this
morning. It is said that the pool are fol-
lowing Mr.. Sully, who has become very
bearish and is operating on the Liverpool
market now. Notices for about 100000
bales of July contracts We're issued today
and PROMPTLY stopped by houses repre-
senting the New Orleans bull interests.
Mr.. Payne personally bought about 3d.
600 bales Of July cotton late yesterday
afternoon. The August option here is
in congealed condition, and very little
trading is being done in that option and
few hundred bales moves it several
points. September is rapidly getting into
the same position. Meanwhile Wall Street
and the general public continue selling
the late months, particularly October
and December believing. that the price is
ridiculouslv high for those distant options
and the immediate future course of the
market for the fall and winter positions
will be governed by the weather at the
South. The forthcoming bureau report
will undoubAsd show some improve
ment in The crop condition.

New York, June 26.-The dry goods
market still shows every sign of further
advances although buyers are not oper
ating heavily. The increased number
OF those who are curtailing production
Is a factor which must not be lost sight
OF in a consideration of the future OF
the market. Jobbers are securing very
satisfactory results from their clarence
sales but otherwise store trade is dull.
NEW YORK COTTON.
New Yok, June 26-The cotton mar
ket opened steady 3 points lower TO an
advance of points and at first reflected
the uncertainty of the trade over the
attitude of the bull clique in connection
with July notices which were issued to
the extent of about 90 900 bales or greatly
IN excess of the previous day estimates.
Cables also were rather Disappointing
at the time of the local opening and for
q time prices showed a downward ten
dency. Almost Immediately, however, 1t
was learned that the bulls through 1--WE
or six local houses had proaglded for
every bale rendered which was believed
TO include practically all of the New
York stock at present available for de-
livery on contract The result was an
other scramble for cover which sent prices
wildly upward July selling at 1900 and
August 1888, with the late months show
ing almost equal nervousness and ex-
element. The movement for the week
was light, falling behind last years by
some %, 900 bales and the weather was
again unfavorable with showers and low
temperatures in many important sections
After the first advance the market ruled
generally Arm with very little cotton
Offering except in the more remote posi-
tions There were indeed occasional reac-
tions as result of profit-taking but
generally speaking the course of values
was upward until July and August had
reached new high records for the season,
the former months closing at 1880 and
the latter at 1900.
Just before the close there was enough
realizing to ease the prices from the
best but the market was finally steady

WARRANTS WERE
ROUNDED UP

The police raided the Magoon tene-
ment yesterday afternoon and caught
thirteen men OF assorted ages and sizes
who were charged with vagrancy. One
woman was also caught IN the drag
net. officer McDuffie and Detective Ka-
apa conducted the raid and they had
no trouble in making the arrests. The
results of the search of the prisoners
furnished evidence for the proof of the
charge of having no visible means of
support. From the entire thirteen, the
total proceeds of the search amounted
to but three knives and one key. Near
~ all of the men were Porto Ricans,
there being a few negroes among them.
The men didn't appear to be at all
downhearted, either over their poverty
or the arrest. They spent the early
part of the evening in singing, and
there are a number of fine singers
among them. One song was a parody
composed by themselves, the refrain of
which ran:
"Oh Mr. Chillingworth why are we
here?" ooh Mr.. Chillingworth won't
you let US out?"
Their song wasn't answered though
and they will have to answer in police
court this morning to the charge OF
vagrancy.

the bondsmen the District Attorney is
| credited with the statement that he
would Immediately investigate LIoyd's
case, and unless satisfied that he in
tended to return the bond would be de-
clared forfeited.
This is an entirely new turn of the
case, the understanding having been
that the Lloyd incest case would not
be taken up until after the charges
against Boxall, Little and Fred Lloyd
had been disposed Of
This morning C. NJ Grow, I1oyd's
business manager. offered to give A
c. Denman, one of the bondsmen, a
mortgage on LIoyd's home here but
the offer was refused, Denman assert
ing that either gold would be put up
to the full amount of the bond or Lloyd
would be brought back.
Later in the day the possibility of
loss by Lloyds bondsmen was remov-
ed by a telegram from Attorney Good
fellow of San Francisco, who wired as
follows:
Anxiety wholly unnecessary. I hold
general power of attorney and control
all his (Lloyd's) property. Will furnish
full indemnity. Am writing for names
and particulars
This message came to Lloyds local
agent, and other information says the
will be arranged the first of
next week. Word also comes from San
Francisco that Lloyd and his wife have
a round-trip passage on the Korea,
which is due to arrive in San Francisco
late in August.
