In STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK, Aug. 2.-The stock
market today was largely an af-
fair of professional traders, and
their views of the speculative
outlook seemed to change from
hour to hour. judging by the con-
tinued fluctuations of prices. The
movement of some prominent
stocks gave warning that the bear
party had been at work in the
last few days There is no one
subject at present to which SO
much Importance is attached as
the years agricultural harvests
and the market showed a real re-
sponse to the more hopeful turn
of the days news in that respect.
Early depression was transformed
into a buoyant and active closing.
The government report on cot
ton condition as on July 25 was
the foremost influence in shaping
judgment of the agricultural out
look The condition figures, show
ing heavy deterioration during
the month and a poor comparison
with the average in a number of
years. does not offer great in
spiration to enthusiasm when con-
sidered absolutely. The specula
tors considered it, not from that
standpoint, but relatively. In
that light it was no worse than
expected and better than some of
the preliminary estimates, nota-
association. There were reports
of cloudy weather in Texas,
where the trouble is with the
drought rather than excessive
moisture.
The drought stricken portions
have been visited by abundant
and soaking rains" and there
was heavy selling of that COM
modify on the exchanges to bear
out the reports.
The cheerful tenor of these ad-
vices strengthened the resistance
which stocks had begun to show
to the depression of the early
part of the day.
The depression centered on the
Hawley group to the accompani-
ment of predictions that the divi-
dend on Chesapeake and Ohio
could not be maintained and that
the ambitious projects of COM
bination centering around that
property were becoming involved
in embarrassments similar to those
which oYercame the Pearson syn
dicate. There appeared a demand
for the stock that was not felt
yesterday during its sharp fall
and the bears found the supply
small when they began to bid for
it to cover their shorts. This put
a new face on the matter.
The strong rally in Chesapeake
and Ohio and a similar rebound
on Sloss- Sheffield steel served as
a warning that protective meas
ures against bear raids were in
force.
A sharp reduction in the Lon
don visible supply of copper. re-
ports of improving demand for
that meta and reiteration of as
sertions that a policy of curtailed
output had been entered upon by
the principal producers served TO
strengthen the copper industrials.
New orders for steel products and
specifications on contracts were
said to satisfy the ideas of au-
thorities in that trade. The over
extended bears in the market were
put fairly to rout before the end
of the day and the active list
showed gains all the way from
to 4 points.
Bonds were irregular. Total
sales. par value, $780, 600. United
States bonds were unchanged on
