STOCK MARKET
CLOSES FIRM
BY Associated Presa

New York, Aug. 31.-vigorous advances
were made by the leading stocks in the
of spirited bidding. Reading, Union Pa
ci6c, Southern Pacific, Missouri Pacific,
advanced point or more and the other
leading issues almost without exception
gained substantial fractions. Interra-
tional Harvester advanced two points.
Purchases were not followed up and
the market fell into nut with a sagging
movement, which wiped out a good part
anected by another outbreak Of nquida-
ton In Lehigh Valley, which sent IL from
15s 1-2 down to 155 "a. Traders seemed
disposed to restrict ventures pending fur
stions affecting the market.
After a period Of active trading at the
opening, the stock market grew dull and
fluctuations were unimportant. The ap-
proach Of a three day holiday restricted
trading, but a large part of the gains
made at the opening were preserved
through the morning. Almost the only
appearance of animation in the trading
was lent by the heavy transactions in Lee
high Valley. The rapid decline in this is
sue was reported to be due to the sale of
property. Considerable interest was at
tached to the sharp rise in cotton owing
to expectation of a bullish showing on
the government crop report to be issued
The rise of points IN American Tele-
phone was instrumental in pulling ND the
general market before midday. In the
outside market Standard OIL was traded
in for cash at 625 with 80 bid for the
stock ex-subsidiaries. The transfer books
OF the company closed today for dis
trfbutions of the assets of the subsi-
diaries among the stockholders. Bonds
were steady.
The trend of the market IN the first
prices generally ruling well above last
prices generally ruling wei labove last
pights close The Copper stocks were
heavy.
Buying by the short interest kept
prices sustained, but there was very lit
q trifie more than so, 600 shares an hour.
Lehigh Valley made up nearly all of its
early decline and the list otherwise
showed good sprinkling of advance.

COTTON BUREAU
BEGINS TODAY
NEW AGREEMENT TO SAFE
GUARD COTTON SHIPMENTS IS
EFFECTIVE AND HAS BACKING
OF ALL RAILROADS.
BY Associated Press.

New York, Aug. 31.-The new
agreement intended to safeguard cot
ton shipping documents goes into eff
feet tomorrow and the central bureau.
provided for in the agreement, begins
activities with the backing Of practi-
cally all cotton carrying railroads
1t was announced here tonight by
the Liverpool cotton bills of lading
conference committee issued a state
ment explaining the plan adopted and
answering all criticisms. The commit
tee says the agreement provided, as
in the case of ocean carriers, that ex-
port bills Of lading should be issued
against the physical cotton, and not
against the documents, the validity Of
which was unknown.
The committee denies any intimation
that a central bureau plan had been
artfully devised to thrust upon the
American exchange buyers any new
or unknown liability, and says there is
no desire to blacklist anybody con-
nected with the cotton trade" It says
the opposition to the agreement arising
in New Orleans Is due to a misappre-
hension of the working Of the plan,
and says a central bureau is no more
Of an insult to the integrity Of the
south than time locks on vaults OF
southern banks. The central bureau,
it is claimed, eliminates risk CT
forgeries.

COTTON MARKET
CLOSES STEADY
BY Associated Press.

New York, August 3l.-The cotton mar
ket opened firm at an advance Of IL to
IL points on covering and some fresh
buying, inspired by higher cables than
due and buIlish private condition re-
por .. There was a good deal of realiz-
Ing and some local selling on the early
advance, which seemed to reflect q feel
Ing that low condition figures were at
tributed to the agitation for a report in
favor OF growers. but the market con-
tinued firm during the middle of the
morning and new crop reports issued
this morning showed a deterioration OF
over IA per cent over the past month.
Probably the approaching three-day
adjournment restricted fresh business as
well as uncertainty as to the effect OF the
government report Tomorrow. At any
rate trading was quiet and with the UNI
popularity Of an advance in prices re-
Elected in the failure of demand to
condition reports, the market turned
easier toward midday under local selling
with new crop months losing or
points Of the initial advance August
however, was bid up by leading bull
brokers and after a sale OF 1000 bales at
IL cents was quoted at 1910 bid just be-
fore trading in that position ceased at
midday or about IS points above the
closing figures Of yesterday.
August sold up to 1910 in the last
minute or two of trading, 100 bales
changing hands at this price. but there
was no excitement and as soon as Aug
ust was out of the way the new crop DO
sitions eased off undar scattering liquida-
ton and Southern offerings with prices
selling or points under the closing
prices Of yesterday.
