NEW YORK , Aug. 31.-There were many Items in the day's news which favored an advance In the prices of securities. They were effective early In the. day , but proved powerless to sustain prices , The higher level nnd gains , except In a few cases , were pretty generally wiped out before the close. 1 he Improvement In the tone of speculative markets abroad gave an upward Impulse to prices nt the opening. London bought qulto freely of favorites among the Internationals. rile buying from this source Is attributed to the operations of a prominent New York operator making a holiday sojourn In New xork. After the orders for London account had been executed In this market the rail road stocks fell BOmowJiat Into the back ground and the Industrials were brought The leaders of the group , especially the Tobaccos , were under rather severe pres sure and showed ch.irp declines. Later 'there was some Improvement on the strength of the strong showing made by several railroads in July earnings. Hurling. ton WIIB the leader , with an Increase In sur plus after charges of over $50,000. The Cen tral of Georgia railway formed a marked exception , with a decline In net earnings of nearly J2o,000 compared with July of last year. I nckawanna was marked up on the settlement of the dispute with the engi neers and there was some sympathetic strength In the other coalem Meantime the ehort intercut In Consolidated Gas showed Blgns of distress nnd marked up the stock 8V4 ex-dlvldond , The bears were Inclined to cover sympathetically inthe other Indus trials. but realizing In Continental Tobacco preferred on the declaration of the llrat dividend canted them to decline again , There WUH continued strength in the Re- publlo Steel stocks , but the promising movement In Federal Steel late yesterday was promptly met by realizing today , and the stocks of that company were heavy all day. Steel & W-Ire failed to show an re sponse to the admission of the Blocks to the listed department of the exchange. The Chicago & Eastern Illinois stocks showed Individual strength and the common gained 6Vs and the preferred 4Vi. Colorado Midland preferred and Rio Grande AVeatern common and preferred were strong. The persistent heaviness of the market and the marking up of call loans prompted a general calling movement in < the last hour which carried off prices to the low point. There was a slight hardening In railroads. but the Industrials were attacked again In the tlnnl dealings. There wan no apparent resumption of operations by the organized pools recently active. The scarcity of money was attributed to preparations for the regular monthly settlements. Hut the New York banks continue to lose cash to the BUbtrcasury on account of customs and liiternul revenue payments , and there la a balance of shipments to the Interior over receipt * . New York exchange at the prin cipal Interior points continues at a dis count. Exchange both on London and Paris re ceded a fraction.

Business , however , was slack , Americans were' good all day. There was considerable German and pro vincial demand for Erie Issues , but Now York was Inclined to supply some , causing a. final slight casing. Southern preferred was alfo 'wanted , See shares were Intro duced to the market today at 2SU for the common and 71 for the preferred. Paris hoisted Spanish 4s to GO. Tlntos were 45H. Anacondas 11 % .

NEW YORK. Aug. St. COTTON Specu lative movement In cotton futures was , tak ing the day ns a whole , less active and the falling off of public Interest was very marked. Liquidation of outside long ac counts was the feature of today's market and the general tenor of prices reflected the general feeling. The rally In prices today brought an avalanche of selling. The mar ket opened nt the lowest point of the day ; steady nt a decline of Gi12 points. This break In prices was ascribed to a break In the Texas drouth , although this was subse quently regarded ns a doubtful factor , nlno places reporting a rainfall of only a trace to 1.44 Inches. As nn actual benefit to the grow ing cotton this could not be said to amount to much , but ns n forecast of possible copious rnlnh It received marked attention and caused a good deal of selling apart from the question of the receipts , which were heavy , forecasts for the week pointing 'to ' a total movement of 75.000 to SO.OOO bales , against 32,000 for the corresponding week last year , while , the movement for today reached the heavy total of 13,302 bales , against 4.738 bales for the corresponding date a year ngo.

Packers all wanted beef cattle and the cornfeds sold In about the same notches as yesterday , but there were some better cattle here , there being a few good enough to bring J6.00. The most of the offerings were taken early. Holders who had cattle late thought the mnrkot did not close quite so brisk as It opened. There were no grass beef steers to amount to anything on the market , but the few here brought un changed prices. Cow nnd heifers were In fair demand and the market was without material change as compared with yestrday. but prices at the present rime are 15@20c lower than lant wck. Buyers complain that the quality haa been unusually poor this week and that that accounts for the most of the apparent decline. Bulls and stags sold about the same as yesterday. Buyers were Just as crazy after the good feeders this morning aa they were yester day , and the market was strong and active. It seems to make very little difference whether the cattle are yearlings , twos or threes , If they are good they are In demand and sell quickly. It would be safe to say that the market Is 10 15c higher than last week on the good kinds. On the other hand the common kinds are meaner than any thing and there only seems to be one or two buyers In the yards for that kind. The first question with almost all the buyers Is , "Are they good ? " and If the sellers say "no" they will not go with him even to look at them. They all want the good ones and the spread between the common nnd the best Is getting wider all the tlmo. Representative sales : BEEF STEERS. No. Av. Pr. No. Av. Pr. No. Av.

Chicago came way lower , ad vices from the provision market were very unfavorable and everything was ngalnst them. The market at this point opened lOc lower , but the early demand was for the good loads only , that Is , good light and mixed nnd choice heavy , while the general run of packers were. slow. The light mixed loads sold very largely at J4.2o < & 4.35. with a few good light at JMO. Heavy packers were slow sale from the start , nnd they did not get any better , but closed 15c lower nnd very slow nt the de cline. Some coarse and rough heavy sold at 14.05 , with the better loads of heavy packers at ti.lO'QiM. On the close , J4.10 was the price. Some Interesting facts may bo gained from the table of average prices nt the head of the column. It will be noted that the hog market during the month of August has averaged very even from day to day , the fluctuations generally being small. The market has simply see-sawed back and forth within very narrow limits and the break on the very last day of the month leaves the market very nearly where It was nt the beginning. Representative sales : fresh receipts numbered some twenty cars , and In addition there were a number of holdovers , so that al though four cars were consigned direct tea a packer , there wore plenty on sale. The demand appeared to be good for anything desirable , nnd the buyers were all appar ently wanting supplies. The market wns just about steady all around , some of the * nmo lambs that were here yesterday bring ing the same price today. The trade , how ever , wns rather slow , an sellers were holdIng - Ing their stuff very hlgli and buyers were baqkward about mooting tholr views.
