couraged the speculative sentiment and
prices gave way throughout. The clos
ing was in consequence dull and easy.
Satisfaction is felt in all departments
of the financial world at the letting
out of the imitation in the cotton mar
ket which went a step further to-day.
But it is not expected that the curtailed
demand for cotton will revive in any
degree until conditions in the market
become more placid. A break of 3
points in Standard Rope and Irvine IS
was due to fears that the interest
would not be paid. This, with break
of 5M in United States Cast Iron Pipe
and of less amounts in some minor in
dustrials, and the weakness of Inter-
national Mercantile Marine stocks on
the curb were unsettling influences on
the speculation.
The bond market was irregular. A
feature is the sagging tendency of some
of the high grade issues. Total sales,
par value $1,005,000. United States
bonds were all unchanged on the last
call.
Total sales of stocks to-day were 1885,

August sent that month down As points.
The pressure on the later months was
not so serious. Wall street interests
were hammering September vigorously

On the whole the new crop months were
IN much better favor, and the point was

the old crop months has not weakened
the crop situation, no matter how it
may have affected sentiment. People
are turning their attention to the new
crop months with greater confidence,

to make the new crop very attractive.

COTTON.
The Morning News Office,
Tuesday, July

Spot cotton closed firm and unchang-
ed. with nothing doing locally. The
demand was light In the absence of
business the local trade find time to
express opinions about the next crop.
A majority believe that the farmer will
get exceptionally good prices for the
next crop, no odds what the size of it
may be. The indications are now for a
moderate yield, but so great is the ex-
haustion of spot holdings here and in
the interior that it is said the opening
of the new season will bring out a de-
mand that promises to send values kit
ing Much gossip is going on, and des-
pite the present bear raid it is believed
high cotton will be the order of things
in the fall

Little developed in any of the mar

on positions. The market appears to
the local trade to be greatly unsettled,
with the bulls still claiming to be in
growing in confidence daily on the
constituencies of holders to liquidate,
and the swapping of profits by traders
iumping in and out of the market as
occasion admits.
The turpentine market closed firm at

sources, and the offerings wiped up at
the official price. The statistical posi-
ton of turpentine is such as to impart
strength to the article. Receipts con-

weather throughout the belt now faV-

the products were to be had they would

ON THE BASE BALL FIELD.
[. A. c. Administers Third Deafeat to
M0rriSviile.

After Morrisville had secured what
they thought to be an invincible COM
hination of ball tossers and National
League twirler, the l.. A. G. trailed
their colors i'll the dust last Saturday
afternoon at the Morrisyille ball park,
winning after Il desperate contest by
score of 3. This victory gives the
series to the local team as it has Won
three ont of the four scheduled games.
There was crowd of some 1900 en-
thusiasts present, about 900 of which
represented Lambertyille.
The game resolved itself into n
pitchers battle, and Jakeman again
more than held his own against the
renowned Doerscher. Jakeman's sup
port was gilt-edged and it is due to
this fact that the game was won.
Doerscher twirled magnificently,
but the sacrifice hitting of the locals
combined with superb base running
by Rambo, Hartel and Kline, made
too fast pace for his team mates.
The game abounded i'll sensational
features. Knight ON third brought
the crowd to their feet by a one hand
ed stop of an apparently safe drive,
while Fish aud Hartel handled every
thing that came i'll their vicinity in
way that brought them frequent APP

Lamhertyille scored run i'll the
first, and Morrisyille followed suit.
This ended the run-getting until the
third, when the l.. A. c. got another
circuit. Morrisville, in Its half, added
two to its credit This ended the
scoring for the Reds, as they never
again saw the rubber.
Lambertyille again scored one in the
fifth, and one in the eighth which

run.

an extensive fishing trip last Monday.
They made an early start so as to be
early enough for the feeding time of
the finny tribe, and catch them when
they were looking for the proverbial
early worm, but they wouldn't be
caught. They tished and rowed and
pulled mp anchors and changed posi-
tions, then went up the river under
the bridge and near the piers, but their
quest was fruitless and best efforts
unavailing. When the three hand

landed at the wharf, they We're minus

was kept busy putting ON bait for his
