Address, F. P. VENABLE, President, Chapel Hill, N. C. Jetf -w York Stock Market New York. July 30. The stock mar ket this morning confirmed the Impres sion created by yesterday's market when the accummulation of favorable factors over Sunday Blgnally. failed to awaken any active Interest In the speculation. Mindful of yesterday's experience, the traders were even more disincline 1 to attempt a movement or prices toJuy. The dullness and slug gishness of tne market exceeded any thing that has been seen since last summer and autumn, after the fall in prices on account of the spring wheat shortage had been succeeded by 'the period ofwaiting preceding the nation al election. The extreme fluctuations, reached as high as a point in only a limited num ber of stocks and, in them, as in the general market, the movement was i wavering and uncertain. The largest part of the dealings was In the United States Steel stocks; but the report3 in morning newspapers of good prospects of a settlement of the strike were Ineffectual to cause any strength in the stocks. Apparently speculators were dissatisfied with pros pects, however favorable, of a settle ment, and were waiting for accomplish ed facts and signed papers as a basis for determining their value and tho future prospects of these securities. There was feeling of uncertainty also as to how far the strike settlement had already been discounted in the recent advance in the stocks. The few dis sultory advances in individual stocks, some of them In obscure industrials were indifferently held. The whole market sunk more and more into a waiting attitude. The present ease of money takes that factor out of immediate consideration; but the future of the money market and the cautiousness of bankers In locking up capital In long time loans serves as a warning of possible future contingencies. The course of the government reve nues Is a disappointment to those who hoped for relaxation of demands on the money market from that source. In spite of the operation of the amended revenue law, the government's receipts continue to run well over those of last year, while the expenditures tnus rar this month have fallen more than JS00, 030 below "hose of July last year. As a consequence, the government deficit for this mont'ii Is only a little over -J2,000,-000 whereas it amounted to $4, 665,639 bv this time in July of last year. The sub-treasurv at New York has taken a million dollars from the market since Friday la?t. For the last week In July- last year, preceding the government Interest disbursements in August, the sub-treasury yielded as the New York money market. The continuance of these unlooked for conditions of the government revenues will materially affect money market conditions during the period of interior crop demands upon New York. These doubtfui factors in the outlook discouraged any buying and made the market soft and yielding even to the light selling pressure members brought to bear jpon it. The reactionary tendency gained force and the closing was dull and weak at about the lowest, many im portant coads showing net losses of a point or more. There was fome early show of strength .n the railroad bond market on a well diversified demand, but best prices were yielded in the late dealings. Total sales, par value, were $1,125,000. T'nited States bonds were pnehanged in quotation on the last call. Government Crop Report Washington, July 30. The weather bureau's weekly summary of crop con ditions Is as follows: Intense heat prevailed during the greater part of the week throughout the central valleys, but the tempera tures during the last three days were more moderate. Good rains have fallen over a large part of the drought around Mississippi and Missouri valleys, but drought conditions have become more serious in the Ohio valley and Tennes see where the week has been rainless except In a few locatlities. In the Atlantic- coast districts th? weather con ditions have been generally favorable. except over portions of the Carolinas and Virginia, where rain is now needed. The conditions were also favorable on the Pacific. Recent rains have improved late corn in portions of Nebraska, Kansas, Okla homa and Missouri, but the early crop practically was ruined before the rains came. In Iowa the crop has sustained less injury th n in the before-mentioned states and ...p rain fall has been cop ious and well distributed. In the great corn states east of the Mississippi river, except over northern Illinois, drought and excessive heat has continued with disastrous effect upon corn, which is now in a critical condition- In Michi gan and generally throughout the mid dle Atlantic states and New England the corn crop is In fine condition. Harvesting of spring wheat is well advaned over the southern portion of the spring wheat region, acvl has begun In the southern Red river valley. Pre mature ripening has reduced the yield and quality of the crop over the south ern portion of the spring wheat region. The condition of cotton over the greater part of the cotton belt is im proved, good growth and clean fields being generally reported. In Missouri, Arkansas, Tennessee and central Texas, however, the crop continues to need rain, and shedding and blooming at top In these states are extensively report ed. In the Ohio valley and Tennessee to bacco continues to suffer from drought, but in Kentucky and Tennessee has withstood the unfavorable conditions well. In New England and the middle south Atlantic states the crop has made good growth. Cutting and curing continue in the Carolinas under favor able conditions. Cotton Futures. New York, July 30. The cotton mar ket started off quiet, with prices 1 to 3 points lower and was predisposed to weakness during the forenoon under room selling and almost total absence of outside buying orders- Investment buying was checked by further liqui dation of the August interest and dis appointing late Liverpool cables. At the lowest point of the morning, prices were down 5 to 8 points from the clos ing of last night. Receipts at the ports were again very light, the weather fore cast indicated clear hot conditions for Texas. Oklahoma and Indian Territory tonight and tomorrow, and dry goods and clothmarket accounts were rath er better than the average at this sea son of the year, while demand for medi um grades spot cotton continued brisk at all points. Toward midday the market displayed a steadier tone on pit covering, prompt ed by fears that the weekly government crop weather statement would be unfa vorable. Noon found the market steady with prices at about the opening basis. Then came the government report; this showed the crop to have Improved quite generally east of the Mississippi river, but suffering from drouth, bloom ing at the top and small west of the line. The statement as a whole was bullishly interpreted and caused a flur ry of buying on which prices quickly worked up to last night's bids. There was some reaction, later, under nervous profit taking by small holders. In the last half hour the market worked off to almost the lowest point of the day under further realizing. The close was quiet, 4 to 7 points net lower. The Co fTee Market. New York, July 30. Prices kept with in 5 point variation throughout the en tire day and at best it was a small market. The opening was steady at a decline of 6 points as a result of much weaker European cables than expected, heavier Brazilian crop movement and a sluggish spot demand. Features of im portance were lacking. Trading was moderately active, but mostly of a room nature. The market was finally steady at net unchanged prices to 6 points decline. Total sales were 21,250 bags. Spot Rio quiet, No. 7 invoice 5c Grain and Provisions. Chicago. July 30.
