goal they took a brace and held the coll

were turned. by lime piunging ana end

from Crawford 10 Lewis, the latter made
"a fortY-iive yard run. This gave the home
team the brace and in few minutes az

ashionabIe Trimmings

Ostrich feathers are so soft and be-
|ning &c is not remarkable that wo-
\ b prefer them to amy other style of
trimming. Ostrich feathers. after
are not so perishable as might be
opposed; the short tips stand an i'm
. nse amount of hard weather and
N the long plumes are not by any
Ians easily injured by wind or rain
n can besides be renovated many
hes. Still a bedraggled. shabby os-
ch feather is a sorry sight and will
BIZ the effect of the smartcst costume

lny weather costume if worn in

|-ock's feathers are for the moment

ey are supposed to be weatherproof,
II sometimes are. but it is not wise
expect more than a seasons wear
pm them without their being done
Ter. However, for the one season
ay will be most satisfactory. The
|shion Of the moment demands that
her what are known as the natural
|lored cocks feathers or glossy green
fading into black, shall be worn with
|1clS, green or brown hats. On all
|her colors the feathers must match
|e shade Of the hat as closely as pos
pie, and it is astonishing what a per-
|ct match in color it is possible to
Ptain. The puppies. reds. blues and
lays are charming in coloring. and as
|e full breast is used the effect Is
harmingly soft and becoming. The
Tices Of cocks feathesr make them
pssible TO the majority but as is the
'se with everything nowadays, there
'e many different prices and of course
wide range Of choice as regards the

 TBy Private Yire.l

NEW YORK, Aug. 29.-The weather man Is being regarded as of the principal fac tors in the cotton future market for the req son that the crop is not secure in some local- ties. A breaking up of the weather condi- tions would have bad effect on late cotton, and would cut the yield down to a material extent. The movement of new cotton thus far has been very small, and there are many statistieians who figure that the new crop movement will be small for some days to come. There Is some talk that certain planters are holding back, having decided to replen- ish reserve supplies It will be remembered that the recent high prices have brought a great deal of cotton which had been held for years, and some interests in the South make it point to carry a supply of cotton on hand in order to be fin position to take ad- vantage of any unusual condition that might prevail there Is some inclination to place faith in the report. The bull element in cotton Is still quite courageous and is supporting the market on all little declines. There is some talk of manipulation in the Winter months but it is doubted if anything like corner will be run, inasmuch as the manlpulators are be- ing severelyi criticized by3people who have the authority to eliminate Mlegitimate trading. The demand for spot cotton continues moder- ate. while the offerings are small. There are mixed expressions regarding the extent of con sumption Cf american cotton during the suing year. and these expressions are likely to be conflicting pending the formation of more definite ideas with regard to the prob able extent of producing.

 NEW ORLEANS, Aug 2o.-As Liverpool was considerably better than looked for our market opened 7d9 points higher on Septem- per and the later months. but declined 60 on August. Fresh buying subsequently, occasioned an additional advance of g on September 8 on October and 4 on the other months Near the end of the session, values eased off slightly, making the closing 60 points lower on August whereas September showed a net gain of I5 pfnts, Octobr "A points and the other positions advanced about 10 points The total visible supply of all kinds decreased l45.ooo during the. week, against a loss of 69.ooo last year. or which the American decreased 80, OoO against 41.o09 last year. The total visible supply of all kinds is now |. lSo 900. against ,343.O 900 last year and LOAF, 900 in 900 of which the total American supply is 500 oOo against 7e7.oo0 last year and 56e 900 in 1900. The total stock of American ashore and anoat to Liverpol is TO, 900, against 37o.- ners takings of American cotton during the past week were 86. o0o.- against I2e 900 last year, or 4s. 900 less The total visible sup ply of all kinds Is I63 900 less than fast year and exceeds that of 1900 by I33 900 The total visible supply of American is 2e7 900 less than last year and 6o. 900 under that of 900. The stock of American ashore and afioat to Liverpol is 200, 900 less than last year and shows decrease of 4o,o 900 under that of 1900. In other words. while the total visible supply of all kinds this year is l33 900 more than it was in 1900. yet notwithstanding this August is 2S3 points and September 272 points over values existing in 1900. The comparison is made with 1900 because the statistical opera tion then was considered the strongest on rec ord. Compared with last year August is 4o5 points and September 3l points over the price prevalent then. In going over the facts it seems if the present high level of values have been brought about principally by manipula- tion. predicated upon the strong statistical slt- uation However, as soon as cotton begins to move freely this year. the visible supply figures will lose their importance irrespective of the size provision must be made for taking the present crop. There will naturally be a pres sure from receipts; consequently. as our mar ket is the highest we suggest that holders ship their spot cotton here for sale as 1t can be disposed of more advantageously than else where. Sentiment. however. continues very bullish and the majority of traders believe in higher prices eventually. With this feeling predominating. we think it best to be con servative and therefore suggest purchasing the late months on decided breaks only with view of realizing on strong markets.

The Financier"s Statement.

NEW YORK, Aug. 29-The Financier this week says: The striking feature of the off, cial statement of the New York Associated Banks last week was the increase of S5- 66, 600 in loans following a gain of So, 5o9,- 800 in the previous week, carrying this total within S27,o97,2oo of the highest of the year and on record the maximum being So5O, 2oS,- 700 Feb. 2l of the current year The in- crease last week was probably due to loans to merchants through direct discounts and also to some special operations The loans to stock commission houses, it would seem have been small for the volume of transactions of the Stock Exchange was extremely limited and indeed the general business at this center was comparatively light as was indicated by the low daily average of SI4I 900. 900 clearings against Sl84 900. 900 in the previous week. the clearings reported on Saturday rehectlng Fridays business were only Si36,Sl2.95l. There was no notable changes in loans by in dividual banks, as was the in the pre- vious week when the increase was largely av- counted for by the operations of a single in- stitution, then stated in our analysis of the bank return. The cash reserve increased s 205 100 last week, which was 5S ,253 POO less than that which estimated from the traceable movements of money since this dis crepancy was mostly due to unreeorded with drawals. The deposits increased S6, ,34I, 900 and the amount called for by the sum of S29 800 greater than the increase in deposits there remarkably god balance. The re- serve requirements were augmented Sl 1885, 475 through the increase in deposits deduct
 Ing from this sum the increaes in cash leaves S39o 375 the decrease in surplus reserve to S2o,677.e25. Computed upon the basis of deposits less those of S37. PSI 800 of public funds the surplus Is S29. 9e8. 375 The loans of the banks now S2 o97. 600 In excess of deposits, against S4 62 900 In the previous week and $50 1900 in the week ending Aug. 5. Comparisons of changes in loans in- dicate that four of the larger banks increased this item by S5,2oo, 900 net or about equal to the increase shown by all the banks. Three of these institutions gained S2 5oo,ooo net in cash.

 CBy Private Ieased wtrel

NEW YoRKK, Aug. 29.-There was a fine advance in the Liverpool market today and spot prices rose to I'd. Last year at this time the price was l-32d The weather was good.
 but there were still number of poor crop ac- counts at hand. Through private sources ex- pectation of bulge Is pretty general based on the manufacturers' situation, the need for cotton will be keenly felt before long, no mat
 ter how high the price may be and the belief is that the market is bound to rise until there is enough cotton in the hands of mills to per init them to feel comfortable. This applies particularly to foreign consumers and it is there where we shall witness the greatest anx- iety to secure supplies. The coming two weeks will be very interesting and probably very ex- citing as well. Liverpool stocks are now down to PA, 900. loss of 46, 900 for the week. And this makes the stock there l92. 900 less than last year. The market opened at an advance of 2@l points on active dealings, October be- ing the favorite month. The buying of this month and September was heavy and offer ings few. Commission houses were doing more business. Shorts everywhere were covering. Port receipts but 800. against le. 900 las year.
