CHARLOTTE NEWS, SEPTEMBER 1 I, 1902.' FULL REPORT OF TODAY'S IRK ETS i LATEST ADVICES FROM THE REALM OF THE BULLS AND BEARS. (Reported by Ware & Ltland, Private Wire to George A. Howell.) THE COTTON MARKETS. New Orleans, Sept. 11. Operators in cotton are now in the mood of the man who has taken medicine in the dark, thinking the wrong bottle, perchance has been drained. That is the question which must agonize the patient until day light and the doctor come. Cer tainly the public now show little dis position to ignorantly to toy with other vials. Far better to suffer and be still, the more especially as the little farmer sits on the stoop in undertakers garb. In the meanwhile, the tide of events takes the market swiftly toward new possibilities, and perils. The govern ment weekly reports seem to leave no escape from the conclusion that another thunder bolt is to be hurled by the statistical jove. Any serious de cline from the September figure of con dition would make it desirable that the crop of 1902, be bagged rather than baled. Then again the date of possible frosts draws on a pace. If the experi ence of 1889, be repealed, the cold will strike to the very marrow of the lon gest furred bear. On the other hand, the bull is the case of the man at the boarding house who 'finds difficulty in eating buck wheat cakes as fast as the cook turns them out. The trade will doubtless stake 11 millions in the course of the year, but will hardly take half the quantity in three months, unless a liberal discount for cash be made. moreover, there is always the Damecles ' sword of war and financial earthquake. In such circumstances there is infinite wisdom for both schools of day dra iners in old Hey wood's line; "Reckeners without their host must reckon twice." The principal thing is to keep commit ments well within bounds so that the unexpected may not " be synonfmous with the irrevocable. Remember 95. New Orleans Spots Easy Mid. 8 3-16 at present is admitted to be on account of the early crop, but there is one point that has been brought forward by the bears which deserves considera tion. This is that while Texas is crying bad, wovse, worse, crop, she is selling about as fast as it can be well taken care of and if they really believed themselves, why give such a rush at low prices when the conditions they de pict, if realized, must bring them much better prices.

How To Find Out. Fill a, bottle or common glass with your water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or set tling, indicates an unhealthy condi tion of the kid neys; if it stains your linen it is evidence of kid ney trouble; too frequent desire to pass it or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and blad der are out of order. Vliat to Do. There is cemfert in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, Uver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extra ordinary effect cf Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its won- v derful cures of the most distressing cases. . . j uiouo. tiiU4i. l.cc You may have a sample bottle of this nd a book that tells absolutely free by mail. a i j ix . . r s uaress ur. turner 6c Heme of Swamn-Root.

New York, Sept. 11 Liverpool did not do as well as expected but gave us a lower market this morning on ac count of heavy spot offerings over night by the South. The prevailing opinion on the other side, is that lower markets must follow, unless there are lighter receipts or New York and New Orleans help bear the burden. The opinion now gaining ground on our floor is that present prices are high enough for the immediate future but the world will need at least 11 million bales of American cotton. As soon as the trade can be convinced that such a production is not possible, highei prices than have so far been witnessed will be the rule. The rush of receipts 4 45 46 LIVERPOOL COTTON.

Corrected Daily for the News by Ileath-Reid Jobbing- and Commission Compnay New Crop orocxi minium? om Middling Sc i-ing-es Steady NEW YORK STOCKS 11 Ridgely says New York, Sept I really dont know what to tell you at the present moment. Some reaction is due, but it's not likely to extend very far. There are few, if any, weakly mar gined accounts to be wiped out. The surplus bank reserves are just about all gone, but as soon as gold imports are announced, or the treasury increas es its deposits in New York banks, stocks are likely to soar, for a day or two at least. Copper, I think, is on the up grade, subject to reactions of a couple of points. The time is also about due for the U. S. Steels to advance. Its intended to hold Southern Pacific above 79 unless there should be a gen eral break, which latter we dont ex pect. Ennis & Stoppani say: Market will continue of a trading character. There is a good demand though, for stocks and on ease in money, a good upward movement can be looked for. Crop news continues very good. Joseph says: Steele features in Lon don. Russell Sage is preparing a tes itmonial acknowledging the efficacy of the Rockefeller enticipate for "cholic germs." He significantly remarked: "My stocks will not be for sale under any circumstances," which means that bears will get no profits by waiting for it. Do not bull St. Paul in increased dividend but keep some of the stock. Fleet says: London very steady. News bullish. Our market holds very firm. Bears are all afraid to sell as they get whipped every time. Disposition shows by larger interests to advance prices pending closing 'of the money market. Some selling of longs by room traders. Butler sold 25,000 M. O. P. late yesterday and this morning. Crop reports fairly good. St. Poul dividend will probably be or 1 per cent extra. This has been well dis- profits and sell it short for good turn. Big tip to buy TJ. S. S. issues. They look wood. Money 7 to 8 per cent. Bank eign exchange weak and lower. Bank statement will show decline of 3 or 4 million in reserves, thus practically wiping out the surplus. Strike news encouraging. Rumors that it may be settled at any moment. Talk of gold imports in the near future. NEW YORK STOCKS. Atchison 55 Balto & Ohio . .. 117 Can Pac 140 Ones & Ohio 56' Chi & Alton .42 Chi & G.
