GREAT STRENGTH
IN STOCK MARKET
Trading Is On a Broader Basis
and More Active
THE ADVANCE IS GRADUAL
Evidence of Strong Undertone Is
Shown by the Steady Gain of
Standard Stocks Rather
Than Sharp Furry.
THE ADVANCE IS GRADUAL

New York, August 1.-The general obser-
walton of the stock market In the financial
district today agreed as to its evidence
of great underlying strength of the in
creasing movement Of prices. There was
obvious evidence that realizing sales were
conducted throughout the day. The alb
sorptive power of the market and the
success which this gave to the effort to
garner profits was remarked on all sides.
The slight movement of prices in some
quarters and the repression under which
the market seemed to act were for that
reason regarded as more convincing of
the undertone of strength than a volatile
uprush of prices would have been. 1t Is
proverb in Wall street that bull mar
kets eliminate in furious activity and
excited advances. The absence of such
appearances today treasured rather than
disturbed sentiment
Houses which have been conspicuous In
the operations In stocks which have led
the market recently were concentrated
buyers today of stocks which came to
the front in the days upward movement.
While there was no selling openly by
the same interests of the stocks which
they had been accommodating In demon
strative way before 1t was suspected that
the resources for the new buying came,
partly at least, from sales of old holdings.
The most potent factor in sustaining
prices in face of the heavy realizing sales
was the vigorous strength shown by
Southern Pacific. This was the most con-
spicuous figure on the strong side of the
market. Pennsylvania, Rock Island, the
Fries, American Smelling, the railroad
equipment group and some other pardcu-
lar stocks made up the supplement to the
Southern Pacific movement.
The effectiveness of these was not i'm
paired by the heavy tone with later re-
covery of Union Pacific, United States
Reading, which were the features Of last
weeks strong showing. The news of tho
day was canvassed but with the evident
Partially for that of favorable bearing
on values which is characteristic of
periods of speculative enthusiasm. The
ardor of speculative sentiment was not
altered by the warning tone of some of
the commission houses in their advice
to customers as to the danger to buyers
of present high level of prices Southern
Pacif1c's high price today eclipsed all pre-
vious prices by liberal margin and
United States Steel tackled fraction to
its record.
The report on cotton, Notwithstanding
the serious impairment of condition In
dioated for the month Of July, was ac-

year and the curtailment in the total
crop report thus foreshadowed must make
a heavy inroad on the aggregate outturn

BUSINESS QUIET
ON MORRIS AYE
BOX OF LEMONS RECEIVED YES
TERDAY CONTAINS LARGEST
SPECIMENS EVER SEEN ON THE
AVENUE.

Business on Morris avenue was ratheS
dull yesterday, nothing of special inter-
est having developed. Several carloads of
Georgia watermelons are being received
daily in order to meet the demand and
good supply of the fruit is being kept on
hand.
The sales of poultry are increasing daily
end a lot of fine chickens were received
yesterday on the avenue. No great change
has been observed in the fruit line, ex-
cept that the shipment of western fruit
is just beginning 1t is expected that
within the next few weeks large ship
ments OF California and Missouri fruit
will be received, the supplies of Alabama
and Georgia products having become al
most exhausted.
Eggs remain at 21c and &c. Besides
these few changes there has been no diff
ference noted in the local market
A box of unusually large imported lem
ons was received by mistake yesterday
by a local firm. This article of fruit Is
known as the "Verdelli" or green lemon
and is imported from Palermo and other
districts in Italy. Only 100 of the lemons
can be pecked in a box which ordinarily
holds 36C Each of the lemons is as large
as a mans fist and is readily mistaken
for an orange A sample of the fruit
measured 9M inches around the center and
1917 iches around the ends. 1t was stated
that lemons of this size were never be-
fore received on Morris avenue.

BROKERS' BUY IN A RUSH

New York, August Am excited activity
followed the governments report In the
cotton market today and while the closing
tone was barely steady last prices were
30 to 80 points net higher.
The market opened firm at an advance
of to Is points on scattered covering
and bull support, due to a bullish private
condition report and continued expecta-
lions of a bullish bureau at midday. There
was some irregularity as the hour for the
government report approached and a
sharp break in New Orleans was followed
by decline here which carried the active
months off to within to points of Sat-
urdays finals. Inside of 10 minutes after
the governments report was published
January contracts were selling at u. roc.
While little later worked up to H. 73c.
and the general list at the high point of
the early afternoon was about sc to 40
points net higher. This carried the mar
ket to within IA or 10 points of the high
records made on July 10 and attracted
heavy realizing under which prices eased
off several points from the top in the

Liverpool was closed today. The govern
ments' August condition report 719, COM
pairing with TAG last month and SO last
year, is the lowest on record for the
end Of July, the lowest previous condi-
ton having been 74.9 in 1906.

Hubbard Bros. g. Co.'s Letter.

New York, August Especial with
the government report showing condl-
ton of 71.9-the worst on record-the
market. while advancing 80 to IS points,
has met with liquidation from the trade
and does not show the same strength as
when the July report was issued.
This curious change in sentiment Is due
to the belief that the crop in the At
lantic states is better than stated and
that the planters will be ready sellers at
12c. while the spinners will refuse to
become alarmed at this very bad report,
believing that they can, by waiting, buy
upon a lower level when cotton comes to
market One hears these views on every
side while little attention is paid to
the fact that the report, If borne out by
latter conditions, indicates yield which
calls for serious reflection. Should we
not have rain in Texas the outlook Will
be more serious than even this report
indicates. Nevertheless the sentiment to-
night is that the report is so bad Europe
will refuse to credit 1t.

grain crops was preferred for contempla-
ton, and the sharp decline in corn re-
ported by the Oklahoma authorities and
the reports of damage from black rust
In the northwest did not affect conf
dence on the subject. The great inrush of
wheat to Chicago last week was accept
ed as more substantial evidence. This
augmented grain movement is expected to
accelerate materially the rate of reduction
of idle car supplies.
The rapid rise In the railroad equip
ment stocks was significant In that con-
nection. Another reduction in trunk line
import freight rates and the prospect that
the contention may spread to other traffic
was received with tranquility. Money
and exchange have not materially
changed.

valne, $5,242,0O0. United States bonds un-
