light on the command of foreign credits established, the exports of cotton amount ing to 82l .S16 bales as compared with 109,- S32 in August of last year. As the com parative price of cotton between the two periods has become adjusted almost to an equality the increase in value for this years export has increased over $11.- O00.0O0 With the increase in value of breadstuffs, principally due to the outgo of corns and provisions added the increase In value of exports for last year is raised to $16.S33 ,901.
 It Is known also that some large pay ment have been made for railroad securi- ties transferred from the hands of local syndicate holders to English purchasers. It Is evident, therefore, that heavy obli- gations are due to this center from for eign markets. Sterling exchange steadied here and the suggestion found credence that exchange bills were being purchased for the remittance of Japanese funds on deposit here to London, the process which has developed of late whenever exchange rates went to a profitable level for that operation. It was generally expected as well that the bank of England would make further advance in its official dis count rate at tomorrow's session of the governors in order to lnterpose a further obstacle to the loss of gold by London Meantime the subtreasury continued its large inroad on New York bank reserves, the absorption reached today since the last bank statement rising to over s5.- 000, 900.
 A rumor was set afoat during the day that the secretary of the treasury had de- cided to re-deposit s20,0O0 900 of govern ment funds in New York banks, which were withdrawn from the nationals in July, but this rumor was officially denied. Some of yesterdays strong stocks became sharply reactionary, notably Sloss-Shef- field. with the stock dividend distribution coming in for some criticism. Copper fell easily in London and was marked down fraction In the pound here. Character of the days advances in stocks awakened distrust. They were all lost during the latter part of the day, and in the final hour prices fell below last night through out. The closing was easy.

TRADING BECAME LANGUID

New York. September 13.-As reflection Of any fixed conviction on the prospect of values today's stock market was not of much use The fluctuations were con stant and never far in one direction. In the stock which moved most notable the action suggested professional oper- ation for manipulative purposes Gains which developed firsts were not continued, the stocks affected being left to them selves in the later dealings. while atten- ton was turned to new points. The en- eagement of gold yesterday for shipment to New York continued its good effect on sentiment, but the more urgent demand for stocks which it stimulated yesterday was evidently from uncovered shorts and with the satisfaction of this demand trading today became languid and indif- ferent. Such operations as were done, seemed to be for the purpose of nursing the market and guarding against recur- renee of weakness.
 Commission house business was report ed to be of insignificant volume. The perception grew that the relnquishment of gold from foreign centers, while 1t might constitute resource against se- we're damage from money stringency in the New York market was by no means calculated to providence a redundancy of funds here such as might stimulate an unbridled speculation. Whatever may be New York's ability to draw on England money markets 1t Is believed that period of considerably higher rates for money Is still inevitable between now and the period when the movement of the crops lr completed.
 The governments figures of domestic exports for August throw considerable
