LONDON MARKET.

LONDON, August 2S.-Money was easy
and discount rates We're quiet today. The
settlement on the stock exchange was
concluded satisfactorily and after hesi-
tating in the forenoon the markets fin
ished firmly in most sections. Rubber
and Copper stocks were good features and
while Mexican issues recovered from a
period Of early weakness despite political
uncertainties. Home rails were dull on
fears of labor trouble.
President Wilson's message had little
effect in the American section. The OPEN
ing was steady at slight decline, but
the losses were regained on covering dur
ing the early trading. New York sup
ported the market in the afternoon and
values made further gains. The closing

excitement Liverpool rallied sharply
after an easy opening on increased spot
demand and bullish crop reports, and the
local market started Arm at an advance
Of points on August, but generally IL
to ~ points higher. There was a big
demand from wire and commission
houses, and active months sold 10 to "A
points net higher right after the call,
all positions making new high ground
for the movement. Realizing checked the
advance, but caused only slight reac-
tons. The market continued very ac-
tive at a setback of or points from
the best.
The official forecast for unsettled
weather and scattering showers in the
southwest helped to inspire a reactionary
sentiment during the morning. but aft
er q reaction Of 10 or Il points. the mar
ket steadied on a continued demand, with

NEW ORLEANS, August 2A-Cotton
futures opened strong at an advance Of
Is to q points on much higher cables
than due and a dry weather map. Both
private and Official reports indicated that
little or no rain had fallen in the west
ern belt overnight. Crop accounts con-
tinued to Indicate rapid deterioration in
Texas and Oklahoma. Brokers had large
buying orders for long account to fill on
the first call and Immediately after. At the
highest the trading months were q to "A
points over yesterdays close. The fore
cast Of unsettled and showery weather
for the week over half the belt caused
heavy selling and at the end Of the first
half hour Of business prices were only
10 to IL up.
Around the middle Of the morning the
market was steady at an advance Of to
= points over yesterdays close. At this
level long buying increased on low esti-
mates of the pending condition report
and prices commenced to advance again.
Professional traders. however, were in
ciined to be cautious because Of the rath-
er extensive long interests that had been
built up by the recent advances. A crop
estimate Of 100000 bales, maximum,
including Hnters. from q Mississippi
authority attracted some little attention
and helped the market. At noon prices
were 13 to 16 points over yesterdays last
