BULLS AND BEARS
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. August 2S.-There seemed
to be genuine confidence regarding both
the money market and the stock market, in
spite of the hardening in rates for time &C
commodations and the failure of New York
bankers to announce the engagement Of
gold In London. Men who had looked into
the gold import question expressed the opin-
Ion. that New York interests could have
gotten gold in London II they had wished
1t. The TACT that they did not bid for any
part of the gold laid down at that center
is taken strong evidence that bankere
here do not look for materially higher
rates for money in the near future. Brok-
ers said that there was an abundance Of
call funds at AZ and 4 per cent.
If no special difficulty is experienced
in the money market some interests be-
lieved that speculation in stocks for some
little time to come would be profitable and
that the largest returns would be made on
the long side. The stocks, as Union Pa
cific. st. Paul. Atchison and Southern Pa
cific. which have already had large ad-
vances. were expected to reach still higher
figures. 1t was learned that some large
blocks Of Union Pacific that were bought
below 100 are still being held on the belief
that this security would sci at least at 200.
~
1t was understood that an operator who In
years past had been one of the most power
full factors in the stock market was favor
ably disposed toward the present upward
movement. and believed that 1t would be
carried further. 1t was understood that he
looked with especial favor upon Atchison
and believes that the earnings fully justify
an increase in the dividend on the common
stock. He believed also that soon the low
er-prfced issues would receive consider
ably more attention than had been accorded
them so far.

Finance and Trade
THE COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK, August 2s-The cotton
market opened steady at unchanged prices
to an advance of points in response to
higher cables and unfavorable crop ac-
counts from the southwest. There was
enough realizing by recent buyers for a
reaction to check the advancing tendency
Of the market during the early session, but
prices held pretty steady around the open
ing figures and trading was moderately ac
tive. Private ca bles attributed the advance
IN Liverpool to shorts covering and Arneri
can bull support.
