Priifenslniiiil Trailer Seek In Interest the Outilde Public. 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.

Cotton Market. 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 3 lower.

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.
