New York Stock Market. EASTERN MARKETS. NEW TORK. Au*. CS. — The etock market j tad iia upward turn again to-day. The vol- j nm« at dealings wa« considerably larger than j in yesterday's altnost stagnant market, and the fluctuations were rather wider, but the market rotaiiu-d its highly professional char acter and gave little evidence of an interest I originating outside the board room. The prln- | eip&I reason fcr the movement of the market 1 j>m; to be that lt wan a reversal of ihat of the previous day. the t>bvious tendency I beinc to c*cil!ate narrowly about a fixed point. Tl. us the morning news that the equadron of j American warships had hcr-.n ordered to pro- 1 'r+4 to Beirut prepared to «>xact reparation for the murder of our Vice Consul there did nut create so rhuch aa a ripple in the stocic mr.i-ket. although the report of an appeal for ;ioteci:oa for American missionaries in Syria iriml?*'J additional ccmi»llca.tlons. There is .¦.r; ur.<5lsguu>ed confidence In the financial dls '-ricts. how«vrr. that the Question is lncapa ij't of adjustment by diplomacy. Reports of :5.o Western flood news were equally Ignored i with the Turkish Incident. There is a erow- | lac confidence In the money market outlook ! vhich was lostercd by several of the day's | tan iopments end this was probably the prin- \ ¦ .pal factor la advancing prices of stocks. I 1 "he report* from WMhlnjfton that the Secre tary of the Tr»-a*ury had accumulated some t K-.OOO.OOO of Internal revt-nue payments which tvouid te available for cpoxit in national j '.>ar.ks». was a KTeatly reassuring factor, as the j •'<:>¦'. hie means of relief for the money mar- ] k< ! by the Treasury Department has born ' «¦ matter of consldercble doubt end conjecture. J As lt i« the question remains of an ade- j •:uate cupply of Government bonds by the ¦ ¦¦-r.ks as eeeur'.tles to obtain these deposits or the future acceptance fcy the Secretary of the Trfosvay of municipal and State bonds In re- | miliyllW of laFt year's policy, which has been '¦'-...Eidered of doubtful exr*-<3i«-ncr. The infor !i*'!oti that th* $40,000,000 irai a contingent j-oveion for Panama canal payments was re 'eivrfl as an official confirmation of the un- HkoiiiKM of tjie payments being called for this >ear. Ttie ejw'cii 1 . rtrerjrth cf the Pacifies led »y Union Pacific was attributed to the obeta '¦>* thus introduced for the Panama canal project. The movements of currency for the week rbow that the movement is etill In favor of tfai» center as a«ainat the Interior. In the is>>t week of August last year the loss to the interior was a* much as $2,000,000 and of the j-fay before was about $3,500,000. With this -delay in the interior demaad tor currency tfc* banks themselves are showing signs of wea*niaw with the policy cf keeping their rc&oitTtfs in call loans at a rat* below that T.hich they «.re paying to trust comp&niea and interior back* for thejr deposits. The result waeeliown tc-iay in somewhat fewer offerings or rundi fcr time loans end an appreciably easier tone in that market.

WHEAT — The market is in good shape all over the United States. Chicago reports the demand first class everywhere. Large local in terests there are apparently absorbing Wheat, and the demand for Flour Is urgent. Minne r.poliB wires that millers are hunting up the cash Wheat m*n and taking all they will sell to crrive on the quiet. St. Louis reports ad vices of serious, damage to Winter Wheat in Kansas and Nebraska. The exports from tho country for the week. Flour included, were 3,245,000 bushels. Futures here were lower, but cash grain etlll remained without change. A Paris dispatch states that the losses the farmers in the north of France because of rains will amount to $60,000,000.

LOCAL MARKETS. The fruit market was liberally supplied with poor stock, which moved off slowly. As usual on Friday the local demand waa rather light and there was little or no inquiry for ship ping. Stocks of Apples were heavy and the top quotation was en extreme figure for the very best Gravenstelns In 4-tler boxes. Plums and Prunes In small packages were in tret supply and easy. Choice lots in bulk sold readily for canning purposes at the previously quoted rates. Bartlett Pears were steady and good hard stock suitably packed was in de mand for shipment. A carload of fancy stock arrived from Cofoma and met with a steady demand nt the maximum quotation. There was no canning stock on .the market. Fine Peaches from the mountain districts continued to bring high prices and offerings from other sections were in fair request at steady rates. Carriers continued to sell at a wide range as to 1 quality. The .canners were liberal pur chasers of clingstones in bulk, and sales were reported in a small way at $30 per ton. Figs and Nectarines were offering freely and moved off well. Quinces and Pomegranates sold slowly, although offered nt reasonable figures. The cool cloudy weather had a depressing effect on the market for Watermelons, but as stocks were lltht prices were unchanged. Receipts of Melons and Cantaloupes were light, but car ried-ovcr stock was abundant and there was no lmnrovcment in prices. Grapes moved slowly but fancy offerings In crates were firmly 'held in anticipation of a good demand for shipment on the Puget Sound steamer out °CUrus fruits were unchanged and dull owing to the cool weather. A steamer arrived from Mexican DOrts with 370 cases Limes, which had not been marketed up to a late hour.

Even now tho quantity coming in is so insignificant as to hardly warrant quotations. It is dull and weak. Butter, Cheese and Eggs. INSURANCE. Firem's Fnd. — — I BANK STOCKS.
