WHEAT— Liverpool futures were weak and
Pails futures lower. The Argentine crop waa
reported looking very well.
Chicago showed no material change, and the

affect prices. Speculation was dull. The mill

excrpt at Chicago, and Wheat was selling
everywhere rather over tne Chicago level.
There was no change here, either In cash
Wheat or futures.

NEW TORK. Sept. 4. — The cotton market
opened firm, two points higher to three points
lower, the irregularity being due to the dis
position among the room element to take
profits while cables, particularly on the de
cline in spot cotton In Liverpool.' encouraged
further liquidatton. After the tall, however,
the bulls supported prices and there seemed a
disposition to expect a reaction after the re
cent heavy losses. On buying of thin descrip
tion the market rallied slightly but soon turned
dull again and was forced down to a point
or two under the finals of yesterday. Around
this level it ruled quiet and irregular for a
time, then around midday was pulled up by
bull traders who did not care to stay short
of the market over the three-day holidays in
view of the low temperatures over the North
west and fears that they might work down
ward Into the belt. This buying carried the
market to the best level of the session or net
seven points higher on September and three
points lower on March. Later In the day.
however, the market became very heavy. Liv
erpool cables were heavy, sellers on the con
tinent sold and the South sent orders on the
short side while large local houses also were
heavy sellers. The market was In fact almost
In a panicky condition and closed barely
steady within a point or two of the bottom
with prices net thirteen to nineteen points
lower. Sales were 800,000 bales.

Dullness characterized the fruit market yes
terday, there belnc very little Inquiry for ship
ping and 'the local demand being light and
confined chiefly to strictly fancy stock. There
was an abundance of poor fruit, particularly
low (rradc Apples and trashy Grapes, which
lessened the sale of good stock. .The top quo
tation for Apples was obtained only for the
best Bellflower and Gravensteins In 4-tier
boxes. Fine Bartlett Pears and choice Peaches
were firm at previous prices, supplies twin^
limited. The canners were cleaning up bulk
lots of Clingstone and Solway Peaches at pre
vious prices and paid a little more for desira
ble lets. Plums and Prunes In small packages
were dull. There was very little canning stock
received and that found prompt sale at un
changed rates. Quinces and Pomegranates
moved slowly, while Figs were steady under
moderate receipts. Cantaloupes and Nutmeg
Melons were In light receipt and firm and
prices of the former range higher. Water
melons were steady and unchanged. There was
net much doing In Grapes, even the very best
offerings being dull. A few lots of Muscat in
bulk sold for canning purposes at $25 per ton.
Strawberries. Raspberries and Blackberries
were In ample supply and choice lots cleaned
up quickly. Surplus stocks of Blackberries
and Malinda Strawberries went to the canners
at 2%c per pound. Citrus Fruits were more
active than for some time past. Mexican
Limes were in light supply and higher.
Lemons were more active, owing to the scarcity
of Umes. and Oranges were wanted for ship
ment to Honolulu. Bananas and Pineapples
were nlentlful and unchanged.

SAN FRANCISCO. September 4—5 p. ra-
THE COAST RECORD.
year are the principal matters to be cleared up
before any definite stand on the future proe
pects of securities is to t>e expected by stock
market commitments. The feeling of confl
derce over the money outlook has gained force
greatly. This was due in an Important dejrre*
V* the und ?retandir.g that $40,000,000 of Gov
ernment funds In the Treasury stood ready
for deposit in bank depositories. The inspiring
effect of this assurance encourages some at
tempt to put up prices of stocks by an ele
ment of professional speculators. But the
banks and large controlling interests In the
great properties who** shares make up the
body of stock dealings appear to have frowned
on these efforts as calculated to defeat the con
ditions of security which are growing up in the
money market. The relaxation of the money
market was felt to be very Important for the
continuance of business activity and prosper
ity. Conditions even for mercantile borrowings
had grown onerous, thus threatening the ex
tension of the depression and contraction
which had swept over Wall street to the In
dustrial and business structure of the whoie
a >untry. The hope has grown that with the
large liquidation offered in the stock market
and by avoiding new speculative Inflation the
usual needs of the fall reason for money may
be met. The premonitory symptoms of the in
terior movement of currency have appeared
this week, and it is clear that the practical
test of the country's money resources is at
hard. Tratlir.g in stocks is likely to halt until
the test I* made. The Government report on
cotton cleai-s up one of the Important elements
of uncertainty and is accepted as assurance of
a plentiful crop. The situation is benefited not
only by Its assurance but by its influence in
prompting the large liquidation of present
speculative holdings of cotton, the promise e^
relief for the consumptive demands of manu
facturers pnd the encouragement to bankers
to offer bills of exchange with the assurance
of a free movement of cotton later with which
to cover the obligations thus assumed. The
American demand on foreign money markets
for exchange is beginning to loom large In the
opinion of those markets. The advance in the
Bank of England minimum rate of dli<count
from S to 4 j>er cent on Thursday was directed
Immediately against Germany, which Is mak
ing very heavy requisitions on the Englloh
gold supply at this time. But Germany's call
ing home of credit* is Indirectly Intended for
the American market. This was clearly s.et
fr.nh jn official utterances on behalf of the
Imperial German Bank several weeks ago In
the form of a complaint that German money
was finely loaned to foreigners to aid an In
dustrial comi*t:tion against Germany.
Tre recall cf German credits thus may be
regarded as rromiited by policy rather than by
the nor.-nal money needs of German markets,
and is made effective In London by reason of
the large amount of German capital which has
twn employed there ever since the rise in in
trr* st rates due to the Boer expenditures. Con
ditkns during the week promiF« normal pro
gress in corn crop, but there has not been
th<; hot fcrmr.g weather tending to correct the
lateness of tne crop and lessen its danger from
farly fr2St. Fugitive rumors of damaging
frotts haw made their presence already, and
the certainty that they will continue to cir
culate, with whatever basis, until the crop
ha* been harvested serves to deter speculative
commitments in stocks. Report? of iron trade
conditions rhow an increase of hopefulness, but
there have been complaints of accumulation
of Fteam Eir*>*= of anthracite and some curtail
ment of production in consequence.
Railrocd earnings continue at a high level
and confidence of railroad officials In future
maintenance of traffic is expressed.
The market fcr railroad bonds Is dull, but In
scrr.e slight investment absorption i* reported.
Government bonds have risen in price in re
sponse to the expected need for additional hold
ings by the banks to eerve as security for the
Increased Government deposits promised.
