New Orleans Cotton.
(By Leased Wire to The Times)
New Orleans, Aug. 28 The spot
situation remains practically un
changed. Offerings are rather bet
ter and the new cotton now coming
in Is improving in style and staple
in fact this year s crop seems to prom
ise'a better staple than Usual. But
there is no present mill demand and
factors are unable to move stocks
freely even at continuously lower
prices. One good sized list of rather
undesirable, off color cotton, is ' 1n
treaty, but it is understood that a
somewhat radical . concession will
have to be made before the list can
be unloaded. Texas is reported to
be offering freely f. o. b. terms, but
at prices about 35 points below this
market. This fact probably accounts
for the comparatively heavy sales re
ported from Houston.
The contract department was very
quiet throughout the early portion
of the day.; Liverpool was off 6 to
10 English points, but showed an
early improvement. ; , ; .- '. ,;';
There was an utter absence of out
side . interest in the market, which
dragged to a noonday position 3 to 5
points above the first call figures.
THE TIMES' DAILY
FINANCIAL STORY
(By T. C. SHOTWEIX)
New York, Aug. 28 Another
buoyant market was seen in Wall
street today with ', Union Pacific,
Southern Pacific and St. Paul the
leaders. Southern Pacific established
itself at highest price in Its history
once more, while Union Pacific made
a new high record for this - year.
Reading, Consolidated Gas, Amalga
mated and Smelting were others very
active and strong.
Trading was not on a very heavy
scale, but the business seemed to
originate with, houses identified with
;he. City Bank and Union Pacific Rail
road Company. Word has been
passed around Wall street by the
Standard 'Oil people that they will
break any house that attempts to run
a bear campaign. . .
. They have frightened the profes
sional trader away from tha short
side of the market and have prices
absolutely in their control. -v'--
The Morgan people are quietly
watching the performance and are
not interfering, because they are
pledged to do nothing to interfere
with" the artificial prosperity until
after election. -
Failure of a small brokerage con
earn on the Consolidated exchange
was announced. The London mar
ket was very strong, but the Amerl
can department was not active.'
': On the local curb market, -...elrose,
Nlpisslng, Goldfleld, Consolidated and
Bay State Gas continued to be the
leading figures. - V '
Cotton was steady this morning
with August nearly ?1 a bole higher.
Grain was also higher.
