ceived little attention owing to the
continued plentiful supply of call loan
funds. The rising tendency of time
funds, however, continues. A 4 per
cent rate was paid for six months funds
today, although small amounts loaned
at that figure and the amount offered
at that rate was reported largely In
excess of the demand. Foreign ex-
change steadied today and turned from
it's recent downward course.
Reports were current of some large
financing in prospect by the New York

Pacific and the effect of these require
ments on the money market are to be
considered. The large order placed by

movement is a factor in the strength

COTTON DECLINES
Is TO 80 POINTS
News from Foreign Markets Is
Disappointing
CROP REPORT DISCOUNTED
Persistent Pressure Is Applied by
Bears in Spite of Poor Crop
News from the Southwest
and other Points.
CROP REPORT DISCOUNTED

New York, August 3-The cotton mar
ket experienced very severe break dur
ing today's trading as a result of agrees
sive bear pressure and liquidation by yes
terdays buyers. The close was barely
steady at a net decline of sass points.
The opening was easy at a decline OF sQ
10 points in response to disappointing
cables, and while there was a good de-
mand through commission houses, as
well as some covering by shorts, the mar
ket gradually eased off under aggressive
bear pressure which seemed to be based
upon an idea that Mondays bullish bu-
reau had been discounted and that
scattering long interest was in the mar
ket which might be forced to lquidate.
This view of the situation seemed to be
materializing when stop loss orders were
uncovered during the late forenoon and
then the break eliminated. December
contracts had sold at 12.27c, or 46 points
below the high level of yesterday with
the general list showing net loss OF $50
38 points. AT this level offerings for
long account diminished, and some of the
early sellers seemed to be buying back
their cotton, but after a rally to 12.45e
for December there was renewal OF
bear pressure, and fluctuations later
showed continued nervousness with De-
cember closing at 12.S2c bid Weather
advices showed no precipitation of conse-
quence in the southwest, where 1t is be-
lieved to be badly needed and tempera-
lures at 10 stations ranged from 100 to
106 degrees. But the market seemed to
be less influenced by crop news than by
the technical situation and the persistent
pressure kept on prices by some OF the
leading local interests.

IRREGULAR MOVES
IN STOCK MARKET
Profit Taking Is Only Obstacle
Preventing Sharp Rise
NEW HIGH RECORDS MADE
Union Pacific and United States Steel
Score New Record Prices
While Other Stocks Are
Little Irregular
NEW HIGH RECORDS MADE

New York, August 3.-The stock mar
ket demonstrated its force in over
coming obstacles again today, although
those obstacles proved more effective
in their obstruction than for several
days past. The chief obstacle is the
pressure of stocks on the markets TO
realize profits accrued. The very high
altitude at which prices stand invites
to securing profits. In the case OF
stocks which have risen higher than
every before it means that anyone who
has every purchased the stock can sell
1t now at a profit. The situation con-
stitutes what is called the real tech
meal position of the market.
Union Pacific and both the United
State Steel stocks sold again at new
high records today and Central Railroad
of New Jersey also rose through the
500 mark to new attitudes. In the case
of some of the conspicuous railroad
stocks the previous high prices In
times past were inclusive of valuable
privileges and extra distributions
which have since come off to the preju-
dice of the comparison with the
present prices. This is notably the
case with the northwestern trans-con-
tinenta1 railroads which were lifted to
extraordinary figures by the accord
ing of valuable subscription rights to
new stock in the scramble to secure
new capital which preceded the ex-
haustion which led up to the financial
crisis of 1907. Allowance for these
facts reduced the margin which seems
to exist now below the previous maxi
mum level of prices average.
An important portion of the realizing
sales which the market had to alb
serb today came from London. The
market resumed operations today after
a three days closed interval, during
which some of the most striking adj
vances in prices have been established
here. The amount of these advances
seemed to look formidable to the Lon
doners and they sold at the high levels
of the opening quotations. The market
had become quite generally reaction
airy during the midday session and 1t
needed the force of the example of a
concerted advance In the Union Pacific
and the two United States Steel stocks
to reassure sentiment and bring about
a steadier tone. News was not much
regarded during the day, but received
a uniformly favorable Interpretation.
Much was made in this way of the
grain crop advices. An advance in the
price of copper metal in London cor
rected a weak point in the situation and
brought the copper industrials into
line with the upward movement of

FRESH SLUMP IN
PRICES OF WHEAT
Good Reports from New Crop
Cause the Decline
SLACK DEMAND FOR GRAIN
Corn Also sIumps Badly Owing To
Favorable Condition of This
Years crop-oats and Pro-
visions Are Also Weak.
SLACK DEMAND FOR GRAIN

Chicago, August 3-Further assurances
from the northwest that the spring sown
crop of wheat is now practically beyond
the possibility Of injury by black rust
caused a fresh slump in wheat prices
of rs to IL cents, compared with yes
terday's close. Coarse grain and provis-
Ions were also weak.
The wheat market was weak the entire
session with the exception of brief
period at the opening, when moderate
firmness as manifested because of the
comparative strength of the Liverpool
market, where prices were Is to "a pence
higher, despite the decline here the pre-
vious day. The crop situation in the
northwest was the all-important factor
for bearish traders. Reports claimed that
the black rust scare was a thing of the
past.
The market was also bearishly affected
by slack demand for the cash grain in
the southwest and by increased offerings
here of wheat from Illinois. During the
day the September delivery ranged be-
tween 81 .01A and $1.03s and $1.O4h. The
close was weak and only a trife above
the lowest point, final figures on Septem-
Der being at $1.02A. Heavy realizing
sales caused a severe slump in corn
prices, the losses at the bottom ranging
between ~ and IFS cents. The selling
was inspired by the favorable condition
of the new crop and by break of l to
IA cents in the price of the cash grain.
One of the principal elevator interests
was seller of the May delivery through
out the entire day. The market closed
weak at almost the bottom, with prices
1HQ1% cents to 19sQ17A cents below yes
terday's final figures.
Free selling by local longs, together
with liberal sales by country houses,
caused a break of q to q cents in the
price of oats. The market was bearish-
ly affected by increased offerings of new
oats. The market was bearishly affected
by increased offerings of new coats, which
resulted in a decline of / to IN cents at
the sample tables. Shorts were eager
bidders, but the demand failed to check
the declining tendency of prices. At the
close prices were 1sqA to u cent lower
than yesterdays close.
The monthly statement of stocks of
provisions in store here was much less
bullsh than had been expected by many
traders and as a result of this fact there
was a great deal of realizing today by
longs, which caused a weak tone in the
provisions market throughout the entire
day. The future slump in coarse grain
also had weakening effect Prices at
the close were 10 q II to So cents lower.
Leading futures ranged as follows:

Futures opened steady at decline OF

and by the middle of the morning the
market was a dollar bale down. In
the afternoon session the decline was in
