Anarchy In Moroooo

London, Oct s-The Times Tangier
correspondent i'm a dispatch published
today describes the growth of anarchy
throughout Morocco. The tribes, the
correspondent says, only refrain from
open rebellion because there is nobody
against whom to rebel, as the sultan's
authority is nonexistent except inside
the towns. All attempts to collect
tribal levies and to secure recruits
have failed. The sultan remains at
Fez, with only a few hundred i'll paid,
lawless soldiers.

On Wednesday morning four squad

from the Hun river, and the enemy's
mounted patrols were also seen east

miles southeast OF Mukden. On the
advance Of the Japanese infantry they
retired. The most significant item In
General Kuroki's report is the fact
that division OF the imperial guards
had seized Changtan, on the right bank
Of the Hun. This undoubtedly is for
the purpose Of bridging the river, as
was done at the Yalu, preparatory to
throwing a considerable body Of troops
across. The Japanese commander re-
ports that a small force Of the enemy
attacked the outposts of the second
Tokyo brigade on the left bank Of the
Hun river on Monday night, but was
driven back with the loss Of three
men. The Russians who were killed
wore Chinese clothing.
No report has come from the Japa

division Of the army is so far north 1t
may be regarded as certain that gen

war board that an attack was made on
Port Arthur on Wednesday. as report

Intmated that general assault will

WALL STREET REVIEW
MARKET PROVES MORE SLUGGISH
 THAN USUAL.
Summing Up of General Conditions Bore Out Forecasts on Which Last
 Weeks Rise Was Made.

New York, June 27.-There was hope ana some expectation in the clrcles py professional operators in stocks thal the weeks opening would witness an expansion of the dealings and broad ening of the interest in the marKet. The market proved even more nstIess and sluggish than usual Last week hardening of prices and the good tone with which the light profit taking at the end of the week was absorbed were the basis for hopes that the rising movement would gain force and attracs outside demands. A summing up or general conditions bore out some of the forecasts upon which it was supposed last weeks rising was based. But the new demand for stocks failed 10 oe
 velop and the disappointment caused prices to drop after the opening. The later fluctuations were languid ana to- tally indifferent. Railroad othcials Tn their customary weekly discussion or traffc, expressed a feeling of encour- agement for the first time in many weeks and professed to see some actual growth of the movement of merchant disc. The lake competing lines were an exception. the reopening of lake nav igation with the settlement of the strike serving to turn back some trat- fic to the water route. which was di- verted to the railroads during the strike. But officials of Western and Southwestern railroads asserted that the stagnation in business seemed to be passi-~. Reports of gross earnings Tor the third week of June showed ma iority of increases over last year. But some of the important systems re- ported decreases. Atchison's net show ing for May cost 1t the gain made early on the circulation of rumors that an important holding was being built up in the property in the interest of Union Pacific. Hooking Valley and Wiscon- sin Central also made poor showings of May net earnings. Reports of rains over Sunday in the winter wheat belt were received with dissatisfaction, but the weakness of the wheat market de- prived this news of any great infiu- ence in the stock market. Attention in financial circles Is very keenly alive, however, to all developments throwing light on the condition of the crops. The heavy loan expansion by the banks last week was good deal discussed notwithstanding the present redundant cy in the money market. A desire Is felt to know how far the expansion may be due to corporation borrowing, which would be regarded unfavorably or how far to prepare for the usual half yearly and periodical settlement on July 1, which would be viewed with indifference as temporary condition. Lcndon sold quite freely in this mar ket A bank suspension in Saratoga. although placed in the usual "unim- portant" class, had It's usual effect in chilling sentiment as an individual in- stance of a prevalent general condi- tion.

MARKETS FOR FUTURES
OFFEND FIRM ON NEW CROP POSI-
 TIONs.
Shorts Seemed to be Covering, But Were Less Exercised Over Pres ent Conditions Than Future
 Possibilities.

New York. June 27.-The cotton market opened firm at an advance of 1@22 points on the old and of ,7 O 10 points on the new crop positions in response to better cables than expected and talk of too much rain in Texas. while 1t was also claimed that the weather in the eastern belt was zoo dry and hot with showers forecasted too local in character and too scatter ing to relieve the situation. Shorts seemed to be covering from the start. but they were evidently less exercised over the present condition of the crop than they were over the possibility or adverse conditions in the future and the buying consequently progressed in leisurely manner with the advancing tendency interrupted by frequent re- action that, in some instances, carried prices slightly under the opening hg- ures. The forecast for continued rain Tn Texas gave the market another slight upward push and in the after noon reports that one of the leading southern operators was an active buy CT of the late months in New Orleans also helped to energize purchases with the market finally steady at about the best price of the season, a net advance of 30 points. Sales were reported of 250,0o0 bales. Generally speaking. trade accounts continue poor and it seems the more general idea that the crop is progressing very satisfactorily. but there was some uncertainty as 10 the showing of the weekly crop tomor- row and it was believed that shorts would attempt to cover between now and next Friday when the market will following Tuesday the July report Of the Government will becoma available. The Liverpool market remains firm right up to the close with the final prices 9@10 points higher on the old crop and about points higher on the new crop.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

September opened unchanged to kc lower at slh 9sis .,s,nH Commission 5, houses were light. There was tendency to SUD- port the market September selling up to S1% GS1h. During the latter part of the session trading dominated by the situ- ation in the Southwest. A report from Kan sas City chroncled the arrival there of 10 cars of new wheat the quality of which was excellent While weather conditions are unfavorable for harvesting, the condition of the crop was said to be good Selling by Southwestern houses was an important bear factor late. This selling apparently ailayed in the minds of many traders fears that the marketing of the new crop would be seriously delayed by wet weather. The mar ket closed weak and near the lowest. Sep- Clearances equaled 44400 bushels The amount on passage decreased 1.7e2.0o0 and the visible supply 1,691.000. Primary re- ceipts were equal to 3ss,1oo. against 4s5,-
  Chicago reported 2ss cars against 361 last week and 343 a year ago.
 In spite of some influential selling, corn held up remarkably we'll considering the weak undertone of wheat. Apprehension in regard to the prospects of decreased re- ceipts had a supporting influence. The prin- cipal buyers were commission houses. There was disposition to buy the breaks The market closed almost unchanged Septem- Der opened a shade lower to a shade high CT at 4SA @4s%. sold between 4sM and 4s% 94Sh and closed at 4Ss4 g4s%.

VIRGIN q FAUNCE's COTTON LETTER
 (Over Private Leased Wire.l

NEW YORK. June 27.-There was a rela- lively firm ruling in the cotton future mar ket early today. Shorts were nervous over the cables, which were somewhat better than expected, and some apprehension was felt over the crop outlook, since there was talk that excessive moisture has produced an overgrowth of weeds in some important sections of the belt. The bulls improved their position by paying much attention to the reports of boll weevils in the Southwest although conservative interests figured that this phase of the situation was hardly as serious as it is being made to appear by cer tain longs The demand for cotton from sources identified with the consumption of the staple was moderate although 1t was currently reported that the spinners are the owners of a great deal of October and De- cember cotton. The receipts were small and the general movement said to be indicative of very bullish statistics for the ensuing week. On the better levels consid- erable cotton was sold for profits by tired longs. but the shorts appeared to be desir- ous of securing profits in some cases and on the digs there a fair demand from this source. Talk of dry hot weather in the eastern sections of the belt was also an in- fIuence in favor of firmer rulings at times during the day. The late market was a little nervous. hut generally there was mod crate support the dips. The estimated port receipts for the day were figured at 1900, against 4623 for the same day last year.
