New York. August 2 3.The cotton
market was weak and unsettled today.
or the first hour or so business- wa
very active . but later became -com
paratively quiet, and liuctuations were
narrow after the initial break. The
close was steady , at a decline of 2
points on. August but generally 17 to
20 points net lower. Sales for the
day were estimated at 400.000 bales.
I. The market opened weak at a de
i ciine ot. 6 to 21 points with near
. : months selling at new low records
" for the season and .the , new crop
' months generally showing a net de
v cllno of 19 to 23 points Inside of the
first few minutes. This break was
due to much lower .Liverpool . cable's
than expected, rumors of weakness In
the spot department owing to In
creased offerings from the ; southwest
and liquidation of recent- buyers for
a reaction. At- the decline to 8.82 for
October and 8. 96 for December there
'was active covering of shorts which
served to check the decline, but no
" rallying power of consequence de
veloped in the absence of bull support
and after a recovery !of & or 6 points,
the market ruled 'irregular-. -The close
was only two ovlhree poh)t'up from
the lowest on the"nctlve months. Pri

New' 'York August J23. With call
loans opening'" at 6 per cent a furth
er hardening', of the 'rates for time
accommodations and no . material
change for the better in the weak bank
position. It was entirely ' natural .that
today's stock market should ..develop
an irregular tone. ( Trading ' at the
outset was vory . heay - especially in
the Hilt and Harriman Issues, and at
generally higher prices, the market
apparently.: taking Its cue from Lon
don, where a continued demand for
American securities was reported. The
most . interesting' featuce . of the day
dealt with an alleged .plan of the Sec
retary ! of the Treasury - to f- refund at
an early date the ,4 per cent bonds of
1907;.' 5 This Irsue amounts to almost
8117.000.000 and rumors had . It that
the government, as a relief . measure
might anticipate the - retirement of
these bonds with the proceeds of tho
new 2 ?per, cents. . Tcustworthy infor-.
matlon shows that there is absolutely
no foundation for the notion that the
Secretary contemplates renewing his
"gold anticipation" . order of lart
spring. ' ; Pressure on the local bank
was slightly reduced bv the Secretary'
actlo'n .in depositing $3,000,000 in in
terior banks. The return of the mosi
conspicuous figure in the Great North
ern and Northern Pacific . properties
was the signal for a renewed upward
movement in there issues, . which
shared honors at the opening with
Union Pacific and united Ktates Bteei.
The Hill stocks fell back later.-, how
ever; upon authoritative . sentiments
that no Immediate announcement Is
likely concerning Great Northern or
its ore lands, t The early imovement In
Steel, common, which carried" !( to a
high record for ' this " movement,
savored : strongly - of manipulation.
though trade conditions, according to
competent authorities, ace better for
the current month than at any time
in the history of the Industry. Ma
nipulation was also, a marked feature
of the r movement -In- the Copper
shares, the' strength and activity of
Amalgamated and Anaconda being
accompanied by reports of larger
dividends. A cursory glance over thjs
list shows that the day's bulnesvwar
limited In large part to half a score
of : the: more active Issues. These In
cluded United States Steel. Union Itt
cific, Reading, Amalgamated and An
aconda Copper. St. Paul and Colorado
Fuel. ." Trading " in the afternoon ww
hardly in keeping with the- pace set
during the morning resslon. business
falling to relatively -small proportions,
though prices were holding well.
