WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.
By VIM. T. Williams.

by VIII Il. Williams.
The leading feature of the cotton
market was the bureau report on
Wednesday, which was rather more
favorable than generally looked for,
putting the condition as high as 81. &c.
The effect on the market was less
pronounced than would naturally have
been expected, owing to the recent
formation of a. clique to bull the mar
ket on the supposition that a decided
change for the worse in crop accounts
is due In August. Up to the present
time, however, reports are very fav-
orable, and while there was excessive
moisture during the past week in a
few sections, the general rains were
said to have been more beneficial than
otherwise.
The net changes for the week show
declines ranging from "a points in
August to 10 to Is points in the new
crop months. New cotton is moving
in increasing volume in Texas, but
elsewhere the damp weather has in
terfered with early opening and pick
ing.
AS to the market, unless a decided
deterioration sets in very soon In crop
prospects, it is likely that the bun
clique will find it a very heavy load
to sustain prices.
Wheat was active and strong, the
predicted "old-time excitement" hav-
ing arrived on time. Influenced by
poor foreign crop advices, sharply
higher cables and sensational damage
reports over this side, prices rose con-
siderably; and while outside figures
were not fully maintained, yet closing
figures show a gain of about &c for
the week. 1t is hardly likely that the
facts fully bear out the damage re-
ports, but there can be no doubt that
the world supply is going to be smaller
than was looked for month or two
ago. If the American crop is only
$50, 100000 bushels, as one influential
authority puts 1t, then the price may
be expected to reach slips. But be-
lated investors now would do well to
await good breaks to buy on.
Provisions were quiet and fairly
steady all the week until Saturday,
when a little selling by a leading
packer shook out some few timid
longs and caused a sudden break of
nearly half a dollar a barrel The
closing was slightly steadier. Lard
also declined somewhat, but ribs were
better sustained, being evidently sup
ported. Trading was light, being af-
fected by strike uncertainties. On the
soft spots it seems certainly advisable
to buy provisions.

BANKER CLEw's VIEWS.
The Financial Outlook as Seen from
Wall street.

The Financial Outlook as Seen from
Wall Street.
New York, Aug. 6.-The stock mar
ket exhibits a strong and cheerful un
dertone in spite of absenteeism, and
unfavorable reports concerning the
wheat crop, which induced more or
less realizing in the early part of the
week. The hopeful feeling now so
prevalent in the street. is due to
the changed position of leading bank
ers and financiers, who have aban-
doned the excessively conservative at
titude which they held for the last
year or two and assumed one of re-
newed confidence in the future.
AS for the crops, cotton is easily the
leading factor. The favorable charac-
ter of the last government report in
dlcates yield of not less than 12000.-
600 bales. While cotton has shown a
big decline, the price is still high
enough to give the grower a good prof
1t; and the lower cost will come in as
a boon to the manufacturers who has
been grievously hampered by high cot
ton, high wages, competition between
Northern and Southern mills, loss of
export trade and legislative and union
restrictions. Cheaper cotton will do
much towards restoring prosperity in
the cotton goods trade.
AS stated in previous advices there
is no need of concern about the none
tary situation. Our local banks carry
a big surplus reserve of about $60, 000.-
900, which is the largest in many years
at this period. The West and South
are also amply supplied with funds,
and the crop and business demands
are not likely to cause any embarrass-
ment in the money markets.

MARKETING FOR THE SEA COW
II Is Necessary Now to Cut Through
Ice to Get at the Eel Grass.


Ice to Get at the Eel Grass.
The man who does the marketing
for the Aquarium's sea COW has had to
do some lively hustling this winter to
keep that big animal supplied with
food.
The sea COW is eight foot long,
weighs 800 pounds, and has healthy
appetite. In the first eighteen weeks
after its arrival here from Florida, on
Sept. last. 1t ate ninety bushels Of
eel grass, six bushels Of fennel-leafed
pond weed and two bushels of ulva,
or sea lettuce. making nlnety-eight
bushels of aquatic plants In all in
eighteen weeks, or an average Of
about Eve and one-half bushels a
week, which is about its present rate
Of consumption.
The eel grass and other things for
the sea cows table are gathered in
Gravesend Bay or the waters there
with connected. Baymen say that the
present has been the hardest winter
hereabouts on the water in twenty-five
