PRICE MOVEMENT
 IS MEANINGLESS No Pressure to Sell in the
 Stock Market, TRADERS ARE ON THE FENCE Hope for a Rally Ia Apparent, But News Is Not Enoourasns-aanks Lose Currency Heavily to
 the Interior.
TRADERS ARE ON THE FENCE

New York, September 9.-The stock market today was even less interesting than at any time for the past fortnight. Price movements were narrow and with out meaning; in fact, the market as whole was devoid of special features and operations were almost wholly profess sional There was no pressure to sell, neither was there even a sembance of investment buying Traders were on the fence, committed to neither side, but rather hopeful of a rally.
 The news of the day was not of an en- couraging character Aside from the in- creasng seriousness of affairs in eastern Turkey, which brought a further decline in British consols, the decision of Umpire Wright favoring the hard coal operators and the report of a probable strike among the Colorado coal miners, were quite suf- ficient to check any trading that might otherwise develop. The banks continue to lose currency heavily to the interior. Several large shipments were made west and south today indications pointing to a heavy weeks movement, considerably in excess perhaps of that reported a week ago. The banks explain this movement as perfectly natural and likely to con tinue in large volume from now on. These shipments were partially offset, however, by the release at this center of $1,662, 900 on account of Australian gold deposited at San Francisco. This money was paid out at the sub-treasury and was immedi- ately added to local bank reserves.
 The rates to foreign evchange were practically unchanged from those of yes- terday The demand for remittance bills and offerings was moderate. The day 8 business was limited to the better known railroad shares, the traffic in the latter showing marked strength. The active is- sues were the Pacifics Etchison, St. Paul. New York Central, Reading, Penn sylvania, Rock Island Southern Railway, Erie and Amagamated Copper, The coal CTS made no response to the decision al- ready referred to. No definite news was heard to account for the improved condi- ton of traction stocks other than more gossip of an all-around combination
 Metropolitan made an extreme advance of 2ss Metropolitan securities. 2A, and Manhattan, 11a Brooklyn Rapid Transit recovered from it's early heaviness. There WAS Ho III eiiO SoiiS afternoon, but in the last hour short cov- ering indicated that the market had been oversold, and prices were bid up with some degree of success. This move seemed to be. purely technical, however, although there was an impression in some quar- ters that offerings were being quietly ab- sorbed, The closing was steady. The crop situation developed no new features. Rail- road returns show increases in gross earn ings on 34 out of 3S roads. the average increase being OBS per cent.
 The bond market was quiet and after early heaviness rallied slightly and closed irregular.
 Total sales, par value, $92S,0
 United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call.

cothra7 q Co.'s Cotton Letter.

By Gilbert & liay,
 New York, September 9-The market Is suffering from the indiscretlons of the two prominent operators recently active in September and October deliveries. A de- cided change of attitude on the part of professionals was noticeable at one time yesterday, and large quantity of short cotton was covered. It looked as though something better might be expected in the immediate future, but shortly after mid day the entire trade appeared to be seized with desire to sell Prices broke sharply and this situation prevailed again this morning The number of traders who had courage enough to buy any cotton proved exceedingly limited. Sentiment is unquestionably bearish in the extreme, and it is almost too easy to make money shorting cotton. When 1t Is considered that prices have had decline of a cent ,a pound, that the crop Is only just begin ming to come on the market, and no one will know anything about the yield until after the date of frosts. it would seem as though discretion at this time was the better part of valor. With December and January selling around 91se, and October below 9s4c the situation is different from that existing at 10A and lOs4, but the peo- pie who forced prices a4c higher than they had any business to do have undoubtedly lost an enormous sum of money, and their suffering has caused general demor- alization It is always so. Prices were in- Hated and now the market is suffering for the imitation. We are on the eve of a free movement of new cotton. The market is oversold.

UPWARD TENDENCY BECOMES GENERAL Several Onslaughts Made by
 the Bear Party COTTON NEWS IS SCARCE Bull Contingent clreplases Reports of Boil Wesvll Damage In Texas, But
 Accounts Are Believed to
 Be Exaggerated.

New York, September 9.-The cotton market was three-fourths as active as yesterdays; sales came to 75o,oOo. The general tendency of prieas was upward although several onslausnts Were made by the bear party to furras- undermine the holdings of the leaaing lonss. The opening call developed fl:m market at an advance of 1Q6 points. This improve ment was soon increased to SMI points, after which there was a pr ,ak of folo points and then a sharp rally If i6G22 points from the lowest fisuie, with he market finally very steady at a net gain !, of 4Q12 points.
 The fluctuations in pri,ss were almost entirely an affair of spec llat!on. News was scarce and of an indifferent quality. The bull contingent circulated reports Of boil weevil damage in Texas and claimed that an unusually large short interest had been accumulated on the late decline. This led to covering on the part Of .ocal talent supplemented by .encwed invest ment demand 1t also being openly assert ed that tho leading long interast remained intact and that it would co It'nue to do so OH lHe cldlIn that the ulONtluehA AhhSb AuiA short of spinners' requirements for some time to come; that the effect of the de- cline had resulted in a better buying basis with receipts of cotton adding too slowly to the volume of the movement in view of the uncertainties of the weather and the possibility of an early frost.
 Reports from Texas are still considera- bly, mixed most advices indicating favor able weather with accounts exaggerated as to boil weevil damage and receipts rap idly increasing.

New rIeans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, September 9.-Spot cotton remains quiet and firm to sell. The low est price at which middling cotton has been sold in this section was at Weath- erby, Miss, where thirty bales of new cotton sold at an average of 1115 cents per pound. Sales today, 1850 bales, includ- ing 15Oo to arrive. Receipts, sos; stock, 10O76.
 The cotton exchange committee re- duced quotations an eighth on all grades.
 The future market opened steady and quiet with prices from to 10 points higher than the close of yesterday. The better opening was caused by more fa- vorable Liverpool cables than were ex- pected. The bears again had things their own way and at one time in the earlier hours had prices from 8 to 12 points low CT than the close of yesterday and about 20 points lower than the highest figures of the morning. It is now the general opinion that an immense short interest exists. In the trading of the morning October first advanced points above the close of yesterday to 9.56, then declined to 9.35 and recovered to 9. .46; December advanced Il points to 9.45, declined to 9.26 and recovered to 9.34; January ad- vanced 10 points to 947 and declined to BPS. Later in the day a buying move ment set in which carried prices up grad ually to the close when the list for all positions except September showed net gains of 13 to 15 points.
