York.
New York, Aug. 20.-A break in the
long, wet spell occurred at the end
of last week, and although since then
there have been several predictions for
general showers. they have so far fail
ed to materialize except in a scattered
way. However, there were enough
showers ito interfere somewhat with
picking and thus delay marketing Of
new crop, a matter which cannot be
viewed with indifference, owing to the
extremely small stock left over at the
end of the year. The low water mark
of the season in the matter of stocks
was reached within the past few days
and the total remaining at all United
States ports and at thirty-three in
terror towns amounted to only 143. 900
bales. II from this small total were
deducted the Unbiased, unmerchant-
able and linters. it is safe to say that
the amount insight in the United
States was then no more than one
weeks consumption for American mills
alone, say about $4,000 bales, or about
two and a half days normal consump-
ton for the world at large. 1t is this
genuine famine in supplies which for
the time being offset the prospect OF
quirements of coming year, as il will
be several weeks yet before the crop

sharp advance. Such an advance
might be only temporary, but there
are enough reports OF damage by
worms and weevils now coming in to
give some show Of a reason for an
upward movement. The cotton world

figure. after which fluctuations were
narrow and irregular.
The weekly review of the Chronicle
as to crop conditions, was rather more
favorable than had been looked for.
The present showers are not thought
to be hurting the crop to any extent,
but merely OBTAINING the movement,
and the larger bears show no diminish
ment of confidence. although some of
the professionals are showing a change
in their view of the probable course of
prices. and sentiment on the whole
has not so bearish an average as it had
a few weeks ago, when the market
was too ne-sided.

New York, Aug 2O.-Everybody was
very much surprised at the sudden and
rather unaccountable advance in Liv-
erpool. Prices there ran up to s
points and in view of the quiet closing
at unchanged prices in the local mar
ket last night, traders were taken I'M
awares, and yet this is just what
short can expect. The situation ap-
peals to sentimental traders as be-
ing one where it is strongly advisable
to follow in the developments from
day to day and not have very decided
opinions on any thing. 1t may be the
cotton crop will be a mammoth one
next spring will sell at s cents. But
this does not preclude the possibility
of interesting developments, in the
meantime great many Western and
Southwestern people who trade large
ly in cotton have made stacks of
money in wheat. They have been short
a little cotton looking for a decline.
The market has not declined and they
have gradually been covering some of
their cotton. We know of several that
have changed tactics and gone wrong.
Now it does not take many of this
kind of people to change the character
of the market. There has been a boom in
wheat and some of the speculation
might easily work over into cotton. At
any rate the market does not act to us
as though we ought to be short now.

bales. The greater portion of this lot
went to an exporter on private terms.
The quotations were reduced Lice on
good middling and middling for new

The f. O. b. market was quoted steady
at 105sc, and some business was done,
though the volume was not so large as
il was earlier in the week.
Liverpool opened much higher than
had been expected, and this fact. to-
gether with the fear of predicted rains
and the further desire OF being pretty
we'll protected over Sunday, caused
shorts to cover freely. The list as
consequence showed higher prices all
around. Liverpool closed from 5@S

also closed at an advance of 2 points
on spots. New York and New Orleans

prospect for showers over Sunday. as

profits at the higher level and with the
