STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Aug. 2S.-The stock market
had its upward turn today. The volume
OF dealings was considerably larger than
in yesterdays almost stagnant market and
the fluctuations were rather wider. but
the market retained It's highly profession
al character and gave little evidence of
any interest originating outside the board
room The precipitate reason for the
movement of the market seemed still to be
that it was reversal OF that OF TIE pre-
vious day, the obvious tendency being to
oscillate narrowly about fixed point.
Thus the morning news that the squadron
of American warships had been ordered
to proceed to Beirut did not create so
much as ripple IN the stock market.
There is an undisguised confidence in the
financial district. however, that this incl
dent is capable of adjustment by diplo-
matte means. The discussion upon
measures for repression OF trusts precipi-
tated before the session of the American
Bar Association might have caused great
trepidatiou in Wall Street in some of its
recent prevailing moods but that and the
western flood news were equally ignored
with the Turkish incident. There Is a
growing confluence III the L4loiitS MOI NJ
outlook which was fostered by several OF
the days developments. and this was
probably the factor in advancing prices
of stocks The reports from Washington
that the Secretary of the Treasury had
accumulated some $40, 600, 600 of internal
revenue payments which would be avail
able for deposit in national banks was a
greatly reassuring factor.
The principal movements of currency
for the week show that the movement is
still in favor of this center as against the
interior the indicated gain on that ac-
count being over 100000 Prices of
active stocks advanced pretty generally
between one and two points and consider
ably larger gains were shown by some of
the specialties without explanation. The
strength of Amalgamated was in sympathy
with copper securities generally at other
points and with an Improvement in the

ton is forthcoming from the South. Port
receipts this week were less than 5000
bales. as compared with about $4,000
bales last year. and as long as this com
parison exists fluctuations in the market
can hardly depend on the actual value
Of cotton The government coming out
on next Thursday should indicate much
better condition of the crop than at any
time during the last three seasons. and
in view of the enormous acreage there
is every reason to look for the largest
crop on record. 30 prospects hardly take
place OF actual cotton and conservative
traders are still waiting for the beginning
of the movement before undertaking obi
cations in the future market. We are
not favorably disposed toward the mar
ket at this level.
According to Secretary King, OF the
New York Cotton Exchange, the total
amount of cotton brought into sight dur
ing the past week was only 5.5l3 bales,
as compared with IS .O6S bales during the
corresponding week last year. and the
total in sight movement for this season
amounts TO 1919. SEQ bales. as compared
with t0,7n. 1913 bales during the same pc
Rod last season, showing the movement
thus far this season to be only 3S67S
bales ahead of the movement during the
same period last year.

Cotton Letter

New York, Aug 2S.-The market for
cotton this week has been the most e1~
cited and spectacular since May Start
ing with reports of damage by boil weeyIl
IN the Southwest, reports that were high
~ eoloreG by those whose interests would
be furthered By q general acceptance OF
the same, and melted by two or three
large operators, the short interest became
somewhat nervous and when covering
once began it was comparatively sim
pie matter TO force the market up forty
OF fifty points. Prices regained the hlg.,
level touched during the early part Of
the growing season and trading on sew
eral days aggregated half a million bales
On the advance a large portion OF the
short interest was eliminated and dur
ing the latter part of the week prices
developed considerable ir.egularlty. Had
it not been for the enormous buying OF
September and October by the operator
representing the New England spinning
interests in this market last spring. there
were evidences that selling would have
brought about a. considerable decline, as
large blocks of cotton came on the mar
ket and holders who bought below ten
cents were inclined to sell freely. Sep
TENDER and October were supported by
the interest mentioned above, this opera
tor taking as much as twenty five thou
sand bales IN a day. At the same time
operations by the New Orleans pool con-
tinued on a large scale and the smaller
trader saw little upon which to base ideas
that would lead to active operations. As
Il result fluctuations seemed to be due
more to professional transactions than
to general buying or TO actual develop
rnents in the cotton situation itself
Further sales of spot cotton in New York
have been reported during the stock OF
certiicated cotton, Is still in excess OF
140, 900 bales and spinners seem more
disposed to wait for the coming of the
new crop than to pay the price asked by
those engineering the corner Reports
from abroad, as well as from domestic
spinning circles show no general change
in the cotton situation and manufactur-
ers continue to curtail their CONSUMPTION.
though this is likely to prove a beneficial
factor later on. Interest in the doings
of the New Orleans pool has not abated
and the large supply of cotton still in
their hands leads to an exceedingly un-
certain outcome of the corner. In the
event of manipulation being extended to
September and October, the situation viii
D. of precarious nature. as far as the
short interest is concerned and this fear
has restraining influence on all opera
tors The simple fact of the matter is
that without new cotton manipulators
can force prices up or down as they
see fit. While it may be impossible in
the nature of the case to carry on any
advance above certain figures, there is
not likely to be very much opposition to
efforts in this direction until actual cot

New York, Aug. 2S.-The demand for
dry goods has been more insistent for
quick deliveries of spot goods. but buyers
are not specializing on the future. The
possibilities OF the next few weeks are too
great to admit OF obligating themselves
for anything more than Is absolutely ne

are numerous. but these do not frIghten
buyers out OF their conservatism.
NEW YORK COTTON.
New York. Aug. 2S.-The cotton market
opened firm at advances OF from 8 TO 8
points on the higher cables and ruled
fairly active in spasmodic way with
prices moving rather irregularly as the
market was first active then dull. During
the early trading the bulls supported the
market aggressively, and while there were
sequent reactions OF a point or two, car
ried prices higher by fits and jerks until
level of about 7G1S points net higher
was reached. There was very little outside
demand, however, and the excellent
weather reported over the belt encoura ged
selling by the room, who seemed TO be
looking for a reaction This checked the
upward tendency and shortly atterward
liquidation set in, which in the same ir-
regular way carried prices back to about
the opening basis, with August selling net
points lower. Just before the close DC
tober came in for bull support and the
spot position also rallied little with the
list finally steady net 1 to points high
er. Sales were estimated at 100000 bales.
1t was notice day for September and
August, and some notices We're said to be
out for the latter position. but had no
appreciable effect in trading. 1000 bales
more were received here from Liverpool
late yesterday and the notices We're sup
posed to represent this cotton. The move
ment of new crop cotton shows but little
increase, but private advices indicate a
heavier movement in the near future than
generally expected. The firmness OF Eng
lish cables was attributed to a better de-
mand for Manchester and THIS advice
also has some influence in the early add
vance here.
