COTTON MARKET.

New York, June 8-Unconhrmed reports of
uDrisings in Austria Hungary induced covering
and buying by Wall Street and New Orleans
interests in the cotton market today and
brought about a imer tone. July was the
strongest month at the opening call. which
brought out some little covering in face of the
higher quotations.
There was easier tuIn in July soon after
the opening The Liverpool buying noted at the
start seemed to have been supplied and the few
notices issued were reported to be circulating in
ths street. This started scattering liquidation
under which the price quickly broke to Z.SO or
forty points net lower.
The market became hrmer toward the middle
OF the morning on covering and was quiet
around midday with prices holding steady at a
net decline Of about twenty-five points On July,
while later deliveries were net unclaimed to
four points lower.
Eariy In the afternoon prices rallied. and
the advance was well maintained, renewing COW
ering for local and outside account and a con-
unued inquiry from trade sources absorbing the
light offerings. The close was steady at a net
less OF nTe points to an advance Of tuenty-ope
points Wv
The receipts at the ports for the day were
Sec0 bales No exports were reported.
spot at New Orleans was steady and un-
changed ct a.O0; the sales were 2G42 bales.

Supper was eaten in the grove

BIG TOBACCO MERGER
RUMOR ON THE STREET
Russian Bonds Up. on Report Duke
Michael Seizes Throne.
NJ uROADAN WALL.

New York, June 2s.-Stocks were a
trifle reactionary today and as a re-
suit nothing Of Importance was done
in any department OF the market. The
losses were not sufficient to mean
anything and the advances were
mostly technical.
Tobacco stocks were sold freely in
the morning, but found ready pur-
ehasers.
Steel was well taken and in the aft
ernoon a well-known operator pur-
chased a call for 1000 shares that
was offered in the name of a steel
maanate.
Report Of the Cars assassination
and aggressive action by the Grand
Duke Michael caused Russian bonds
to turn strong on the curb. Both is
sues were up four points.
There was a much better feeling in
regard to the military situation and
the submarines have departed from
the American coast.
Much discussion was heard regard
ing sugar stocks and this may ex-
plain the peculiar action recently OF
Cuba Cane. Reason for the heaviness
OF American Beet Sugar is wen known
to be the smaller crop of sugar beets.
This shortage of beets has led the
Street to expect a great thing from
Cuba Cane. but now 1t appears that
the expense of handling the Cuban
crop this year is more than double
what 1t was last year. The great
economies expected from the comblna-
ton of plantations have been made
impossible by war conditions. The re-
suit is that sugar men are calmoring
for higher prices from :ne allies. say
ing that they can not exist on the
current quotation.
Accompanying an announcement
that the government would on August
Z discuss prices with :he copper pro-
dUcers, there was an advance in all
copper stocks. Utah led this move
ment with a gain of 2 points. Inspi--
alton. Anaconda and others partici-
pated.
In regard to the toba eco stock. a
statement made by George j. Whelan
dispels lot of mystery. AIR. Wheian
admits that negotiations have been
under way looking 20 the merger o:
American Sumatra. Tobacco Products
and United Cigar stores. He is OF
opinion that the merger can not be
accomplished, because of the differ
ence OF opinion regarding prices.
Railroad earnings were interesting
i'm that they disclosed the great pros
perity of the South. Atlantic Coast
Line and Southern Railway showed
net operating gains for May of $i95, ,I66
and S753.i1l respectively, while Balti-
more & Ohio and New Haven earnings
for the same month showed decreases
respectively of S2,429, 10 and St24,513.
