W. Benson as Senator from Kansas. The
first named is head of the Powder Trust

a railroad director. Benson is reputed to

 New Orleans, La, Aug. s1.--Market ruled comparatively quiet considering mat American markets will have a three days suspension of business and the fact of this being the last day of me old commercial year. All indi- cations point to the commercial crop Of ls05-06 being about 1i.50e. GOO bales and as there was 1,s43,00n bales car ried over in the worlds visible supply or American cotton last September. and the probabilities of their being only ward at the opening of the new year, which would indicate mill talkIngs .s4r the last season to have been as much as 11.soo,soo bales and consumption. by reason of threads having been made on invisible reserve to De somewhat in excess of 12 .000 000 the trade is nat urally taken up with the question as to the probabilities of growing crop. upon which the world must rely for supplies the coming year.
 The acreage according to the Gov ernment reports is but moderate one when irh the wants of spindles .a are taken against 2s.s9ssooo last year and 31.730.- OVe acres or two years ago when a crop of nearly 14.ooo,0oo bales was raised. There Is want of confidence in the however. the majority Of trade believ- ing 1t to have been under-estimated ana there are not a few who are of the opinion that the area devoted to the growing of cotton this year is as large, if not larger, than 1t has ever been, and in this case we have theory against facts. Nevertheless a signifi- cant feature of past spring and sum mer was the attitude of the South in regard to the probable course of values. sentiment south of Ohio having been bearish throughout the growing period, due. 1t is claimed, to the large in crease in acreage this year and to the pavorable planting and growing season in all sections of the belt except, per- haps. in the South Atlantic States, where complaints Of too much rain have been general since the middle of June, but in this less favored section there are hopes for redemption to come of the large increase in the use of fertilizers. Notwithstanding all these assertions. the fact remains that the size of the growing crop remains an uncertainty, and while the same may apply to claims of large consump- ton than the size of production, and on this point, since there is an ever-in- crease in the worlds population, bulls are confident of their position, while bears. although they have yet to prove their case, are satisfied that the sup ply to come of the growing crop will exceed the demand, except at a lower level of valdes, and on these conten- tions is the issue being waged.

MARKET FOR COTTON
MARKET WAS NERVOUS AND VERY

New York. Aug 3I.--The cotton market was nervous and irregular to. day with trading most professional ana in the way. of evening up for ever the leaus markets being closed on Satur, day and Monday. while Liverpool will remain open. The close was barely steady at q net decline of i2@lS points. Sales for the day were estl- mated at 250.0o0 bales.
 The market opened steady at de cline of 5 @9 points under easier cables and increased the loss to matter of tVQi1 points shortly after the open ing. owing to the favorable weather reports and further condition reports showing deterioration ranging from about 3.s to 5 per cent for the month There was considerable covering at the decline and during the middle session the market rallied to within 2 or points of last nights finals, but this covering seemed to clean up the scat tertng short interest and the market turned weak in the late trading under liquidation and renewal of bear pres sure The close was at practically the low point of the day. The trade ap- pears to be looking for a government report between the seventh and elev- Nnkh of next month refecting about the same loss in condition as that shown by the five previous reports so far is- sued. The report will compare with t2.9 per cent last month and 721 per cent last year. The cotton exchange estimates the commercial crop of the season Just ended at 11,225,000 bales
 Receipts at the ports today were IT, hQ1 bales against 9.3e1 last week, and 16.s9s last year. For the week 72.O00 bales against 4s.414 last week and s. 620 last year.
