NEW YORK. July 23. Tho Influential In
terests which have taken the leadership In
the stock market continued their efforts to
day to make n rising market with the ob
ject of Inviting public buying. They were
not discouraged by tho failure of outside In
terest to develop on account of last week's
advance utid they resumed their bullish
manipulation from the opening this morn
ing. There was not much dllllculty apparent
In advancing prices or If any obstruction
appeared In the shape of offerings In largo
volume than could bo absorbed, tho leaders
deftly turned their attention to stocks
whoso upward courso was easier. As the
long Interest has not yet attained large
proportions nnd as there still remains 11
consldernblo short interest, whoso position
grows dully more precarious, tho technical
conditions favored tho ndvnnce.
Thero was somo nccesslon of outside buy
ing ns well which It is tho ultimate
object of the present buying to net
ns a rcllnnco for absorbing stocks
at a higher level. The appearance of this
buying encournged the professional bulls to
redoubled efforts, nnd the day'B market ns
a result gave nn nppenrnnce of greater
nctivity nnd moro strength than on any day
last week. This wns tiartleulnrlv trim nfter
Sugar had been checked In its ilrst reaction
ary tendency and was found to move up
wards easily on modcrato buying. This
stock continued to have a marked Influence
on the whole market and Its reaction late
In tho dny precipitated a movement to take
prollts elsewhere, so that tho closlnir wns
easy nt considerable recessions from tho
uest.
Tho distinguishing feature of tho market
was Its unovenness, ns might bo expected
from its professional and mnntmilnteil elmr-
ncter. A few stocks wero nctivo nnd strong,
11 nirgo numoer snowed sharp ndvnnees
after lying dormant for somo time, so that
very meager transactions wero sufficient to
movo them. But tho majority of tho list
whs only moderately nctivo and continued
very sluggish, small net gains being the
ruin In sympathy with the strength in spe
cial stocky. There wns a disposition to pick
somo lending stock from each group of se
curities In which tho lntorosts or condi
tions wero allied nnd ndvnnoo the lenders
for effect on their pnrtlculnr groups, thus
permeating pretty much the whole list with
n show of strength.
During tho courso of the day other stocks
In tllti several trrntm. raannnrlAH y, n
less to this maneuver, thus broadening tho
effect of tho advances. Thus Tentmimen
Coal led tho steel stocks, with nn extreme
advance of 4 VI, but several of the group
responded to the extent of a point or over.

NEW YORK, July 23,-Today's cotton
market opened 218 points higher in re
sponse to strong early cablon from Liver
pool, Soon after the opening perfect crop
accounts from tho south made their pres
ence felt, as did wet weather accounts and
piedlctlons for the best weekly crop re
port from WnshlnRton received this year.
The timid holders llnally unloaded a con
siderable portion of their staple and the
local and southern bear speculation In
creased the heaviness of tho mnrket near
midday. Not only did iho new crop deliv
eries make a full reaction, but they sank
several points below Saturday's closing be
fore tho selling movement subsided. Nearly
every broker in the pit had selling orders,
though these for the most part were scaled
upward on the theory that the llrmness In
Liverpool would cause our marker to ad
vance fully 1220 points. Late operations
on 'change were of a local evening up
character and small at that; prices followed
a narrow rut throughout. Tho close was
quint, with prices net 10 points higher to

CATTLE Not ns manv cattle arrived to
day as a week ago and only about
thirty cars of western stock wove on sale.
In view of the light receipts and favorable
reports from other markets prices here on
cornfod steers ruled generally 5 10c higher
than on Friday of Inst week, The greater
advance wns, of course, on the better
grades, and some very common stuff may
not have brought more than steady prices,
but the feeling was better all around. Buy
ers all seemed to want a good many cattle
ana it was not long nerore practically all
the choice stock had changed hands.
The cow market wns also In better shape.
Thero, were not many good native cows on
sale, but such ub were here brought from
5c to 10c more than last week's price.
Common stuff mpved a little more freely,
but without material change In quotations.
Bulls, calves and stags also sold at fully
steady prices with last week.
Stock cattle wero In good demnnd again
today and might snfely be quoted 10c higher
than on Friday for good heifers or steers.
Common stuff does not sell so readily and
prices are not much better on that class
of stock.
The western cattle today met with ready
sale at prices that compared very favorably
with those of last Monday. Taking quality
Into consideration the mnrket today was
grobably 10gi5c higher than a week ago,
ut owing to the fact that so few are com
ing comparisons are difficult. Represent
ative sales:

HOGS There was about an average Mon
day's supply of hogs at the yards today,
but tho quality was rather on the com
mon order, a good proportion of tho re
ceipts being composed of light weight stuff,
Reports from other markets wore In favor
nt the selling Interests, and us a result
prices here wero 5gl0a higher than on Sat
urday. The bulk of the hogs sold from
J5.12V4 to $5.17V4. or generally 7V4o bettor
thnn Saturday's prices. Tho light weights
brought from $5.15 down, but mostly
J3.12V4. and tho choicer hogs brought mostly
$5,174, with the long string of nil tho sales
at $5,15, The market whb fairly active
throughout and closed without material
change, ulthnugh Chicago repnricd an eas
ier close.
As will be seen from the table of average
prices today's advanco takes the market
back to nbout where It wns two weeks ago
today. Representative sales;

SHEEP-There was tho biggest run of
sheep at tho yards that has been received
In several months. Tho demand, however,
was good on the part of packers, and owing
to the fnct that eastern markets were In
pretty good shape prices at this point were
steady to stronger on choice sheep, They
began moving over the scales early in the
morning, and those of good quality were
picked up nt good prlrcs, The quality of
tho arrivals today was rather above -the
average, Lambs, In sympathy with east
ern markets, sold still lower today. A
string of good Iambs brought $3.60, or about
25c lower that) lost week's quotations. The
market may now lie said to bo 50t?75c
lower than it was before the break In Chi
cago last week.
