furrori Commission houses were

New York, Sept. 4. Spot cotton,

2,700 bales.
New Orleans Cotton. ,
New Orleans, La., Sept. 4. While
ths spot market continued very dull
there is yet a slightly better feeling
in evidence, and prices are holding
well in comparison. This is due in
part to the faint improvement in the
Liverpool movement during the past
few days, as well as to the fact that
local operators who have sold fot
October delivery are now seeking tc
have those deliveries transferred tc
the-current month.- There is no
present mill demand for the staple
in this market, but factors are en
couraged to look for an early im
provement In the situation and are,
therefore, not pressing sales.
The contract department was also
dull, but with prices showing a mod
erate upward trend following the
opening, which was four to six
points below yesterday's close, as a
result of the Bhorts covering over
the holiday period. There were not
infrequent narrow fluctuations dur
ing the forenoon, , but little inter
est in the market was displayed
either by outside traders or the floor
contingent, and the ring was pretty
well deserted up to the noon hour.
At that time the hoard showed net
gains of 2 to 3 points on all posi
tions.

THE TIMES' DAILY
FINANCIAL STORY
(By T. C. SHOTWELL.)
New York, Sept. 4, Stocks open
ed with general' recoveries this
morning under the leadership of
Southern Pacific, which advanced
nore taan a point in the first few
ninutes of trading. Reading, Union
'acific, Baltimore & Ohio, Smelters
-nd Antalgamated joined in the ad
'ance. There seemed to be no new
eason for the better times except a
'.amputation by experts of the corn
;rop, resulting in the announcement
.hat at least two billion bushels will
le harvested this year.
It was also rumored from Waah
ngton that the tax of Aldrlch cur
rency would be reduced by congress
.his winter, thus further debasing
the currency and simplifying the
problem of the bulli market. Lon
don was heavy but that market only
?ot this morning what came to New
York late yesterday. '
Cotton was slightly lower as was
wheat.: .
On the curb Guggenheim stock
seemed ta be under pressure again
but stocks of the silver mining com
pany were firm.
Prominent operators in Wall
street have been evening up their
contracts this week in preparation
for the holiday. In view of the high
price of stocks very few professions
als cared to take the risk of carry
ing contracts until next Tuesday.-
The fact that the market has re
acted on these transactions is taken
as evidence that there is no short in
terest of importance, the evening up
process consisting almost entirely
of the sale of stocks. There is also
considerable apprehension in the
3treet , regarding possible legislation
of the stock exchange owing to the
failure of Brown & Company. :
Governors of the exchange have
been given to understand that if
they examine the wash transactions
of Brown &, Company they will be
compelled tQ xpose the transactions
put through'ty the Harrlman opera-.
tors, who have been washing mil
lions of shares in the last few j
months. The situation is extremely
embarrassing for; he exchange.
