A great amount OF damage was done
over this section Of Pennsylvania last
week by forest fires. Thursday Reyn-
oldsville was surrounded by fires and In
the afternoon the air was full Of wood
smoke. There was strong wind blow
ing all day. II looked for time Thurs
day afternoon as II the Hre on the hin
back Of West Reynoldsville would
swoop down upon the town and do great
damage, but the wind changed and
drove the fire back over the hill.
AT Hopkins mill the fire crept down
to the creek bank on opposite side of
mill, but no serious damage was done
at Hopkins, although one dwelling
house was on fire and snumber of small
fires started In the limber yard, but
men with buckets were stationed
through the lumber yard and prevented
the fires getting a start. The little
village was covered with dense volumes
OF smoke. A number OF men from this
place went down to Hopkins to assist In
saving property.
The fire swept over sixty acres OF
young timberowned by William Dough-
erty and fifty acres owned by John
Dougherty In Paradise. William
Dougherty places his loss at $1,000.
John Doughertys tract was not so badly
damaged. Mrs. John North's barn was
burned. Henderson Uplingers house
and his mothers house, near Panic.
were both burned.

Baxter and Co... Cotton Letter.

New York. Aug. S.-Cables were 2
points higher to-day. The Chronicle
report was so good, so were advices
through other sources. 1t is now gen.
orally admitted that the crop is do
ing considerably better. but this is
nothing more than should be, if the
case, since the crop is so late, and has
been fruiting so slowly. The Liver
pool statistics lost $4,000 during the
week, and are now down 371,000 bales,
against 537, 900 last year. The visible
supply lost $4,000 bales for the week.
Weather in the South to-day was fav-
orable as rule. Next weeks bu-
reau report Is expected to show good
crop prospects, but there is no likeli-
hood of prices going down materially
before new cotton moves to the mar
ket, and this cannot be on a large scale
for six weeks at least Prices opened
a trifle lower on a very small bust
ness. Wall street was weak, and this
presented much activity. A waiting
policy was being observed in all di-
rections, pending a renewal of opera
lions one way or another by the pool
leaders, who were not in evidence until
late in the day. when the market went
off sharply, and the feeling was quite
unsettled and nervous. Showers were
again indicated for the Southwest.

The sDot cotton market was easy;
sales. 800 bales; delivered on contract,
zoo. Quotations reduced NC.
Futures opened quiet and steady with
prices at about yesterdays closing
level. The undertone of the market
was good. but a desire on the part of
traders and scalpers to even up and
close out at the weeks end caused
some selling which weighed prices
down. Liverpool cables to-day re-
ported heavy sales there after hours
yesterday, bringing the total sales of
Friday up to $4,000 bales, which is phe-
nomenal considering the situation and
the season. 1t was claimed that much
of the cotton represented in this trad
ing was of low grade, and was bought
for export to the United States, where
it is to be rendered on August con-
tracts. The list at the close showed
net losses on the day of five points
each on August and September, four
on October and three points each on

SPIRITS-The turpentine market
showed better tendency to-day and
closed at the advance. The opening
was firm at, 49@49Ac. sales 254 casks,
and closed firm at, 49Ac, sales 1871
casks. Inquiry was from general
sources, and indicated a wholesome
and we'll distributed demand. Con-
sumption keeps up to expectations, as
shown by the liberal weekly talSings,
while there is nothing to indicate an
increase in the supply. The position
was taken locally long ago that. this
crop will be from SOLO per cent. less
than last year. and the takings at
least point TO a partial acceptance of
this. Another feature that indicates
an acceptance of short crop estimates
is the willingness of buyers to tank
stuff. believing that conditions will
bring about a more advantageous mar
ket than the present on which to mar
Let stuff. Reports are that holders
elsewhere are talking OF storing spirits

true the chances are that efforts may
