NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS, Increased Activity on ‘Change, with Somewhat Better Feellng. “NEW YORK, Aug. 31.—There was a con- siderable growti In the volume of busineas In stock foday and a show of strength which was quite imposing, but neither the activity nor the strength lasted the day out. The aggregnte transactions rose to half a million shares, but the largest part of this was done in the two hours before noon During the active period of the market advances over Saturday of 1 to 2 poinis had become quite numerous, but the iast price of the day show very few gains in exce: of a point. The demonstration of strengt was evidently due largely o concerted a tion by professional traders. Uncovered bears became discournged Ly the dull re- sistance of last week's .market to any at tack and the bullish traders *became corre- ondingly encouraged and helped to drive the bears to cover. Professional sentiment wae mora cheerful on account of improved factors In the general outlook, but there was nothing to show that any considerable outside demand for stocks played a part in_the day's movement. 8 There {8 no doubt that confidence over the money situation has been greatly Increased since the intimation of the readiness on (he part of the secretary of the treasury to de- posit $40.00.000 of government money now n the treasury with deposit banks. This in felt to be an effectual safeguard againat & threat of violent stringency in money, and money lenders are decidedly less exact- ing in thelr conditions for time loans. Quoted rates are only siightly lower, but the stringent conditions which have' at- tached to the making of loans for som time past are relaxed. These conditious were prohibitive except to favorite borr: ers on the part of some of the banks. The limits of the avallable supply have heen conslderably extended and with the present surplus reserve held by the banks confi- dence s pretty firmly established In the ability of the money market to meet ie- quirements upon it. Encouraging reports of raflroad traffic to- day, last week's cheerful tone over the gen- eral trade situation on the part of the mer. cantile agencies and the bellef that a quiet absorption of securities by Investors both forelgn and domestic has been going on, had to do with the stronger feeling In the stock market. This morning much was made of the transfer of the holdings of the undepariting syndicate for Metropolitan securities to other dominant Interests in the property tonding to consolidate the control eferenices were drawn by the traders from thia transaction of n coming consolidation of all the traction and lighting interests in Greater New York and in outlying terri- torfes. A considerable stimulation to this specuiation was the regult. The market became nlmost stagnant in the later stages, but'closed heavy. Bome buying for London account, which was large in Frie. helpsd the early advanc: Reading hung back on account of the utter- ances attributed to the legislative executive head of the system pointing to an accumu- lation of anthracite and a possible curtail- ment of the productions In consequence. 8t. Paul was the leader in the rallroad list and enjoyed an extreme advance of 2 points. The strength in the corn market and re- ports of unseasonable temperature had thelr influance on the reaction of stocks owing to the Imnortance now attached to the outcome of the corn crop. The bond market was firmer. Total sales, par value, $1.3%.000. United States bonds were all unchanged on the last eall. are the closmg quotations on the New rk Stock exchange. Atchison . §4% So.

NEW YORK, Aug. 31.—COTTON—The market opened firm, 1 point higher on Au- Kust to 9 points lower under the disap- pointing cablés and heavy reallzing. Al- most immediately, however, the clique came aggresaively to the support of values, par- ticularly Septomber, and brought about a recovery of from 1 to § points above last Baturday's finals. On the advance fresh selling orders came in and prices were sent Irreguiarly downward until within a few points of the opening, when they were again rallled vigorously by the eclique. Around midday the fallure of a small brokerage firm was announced, with some buying of September, presumably for thelr account, and for a time the madrket ruled active and excited, prices reaching the best point of the session; October sold at 10.0c, December at 104, and Janvary at 10.4lc. The general L~ was 0 to 33 points higher, At this level the realizing became hewvier and prices agaln reacted to about 10.60c for September. Then followed a period of irregularity, but just before the close values were again forced up, and the mar- ket was fina'ly firm, net 7G2{ points higher. Sales wero cstimated at 1,000,000 bales, rep- resenting one of the most active markets of the season. The lower cables were ats tributed to a recount of the stock In Li erpool, making it some 13,000 bales heavier than was expected.

As a resulc beef steers were in good aemand and prices ruled steady to nigner. ‘'here were severd] loads of corn fed steers on sale this morning and some of them were the best that have been here in a long time. A new top was put on.the market, when a siring of Hereiords sold for $.i6 and some black cattle brought $.60. | 'Tne previous high price of the year was $6.65, which was pald last week. It is sate 10 quote the best grades of corn feds a lit- tle higher than al the close of last week, while the fair to good kinds are steady to SErong. The cow market did. not show much change from last Friday. Trading was not particularly brisk, but still the more de- sirable grades changed hands without much wrouble at steady prices. The common and medium kinds were barely steady. Bulls, veal calves and stags commanded Just about steady prices. \ A large proportion of the offerings this morning consisted af stockers and. feeders end as a result speculators were inclined to bid lower. In the majority of cases the ood stuff sold about steady, while the me- jum and common kinds were a little neg- Jected and, If anything, a trifie lower. ‘There was not the snap to the market that characterized the trade a week ago today, us buyers were very cautious. There were only a few western ffl!ll steers that were good enough for klillers and there were none at all that could be called cholce. Packers, though, had to have some cattle and as a result they paid steady to strong prices for such as were offered. Range cows sold generally steady, though salesmen in some cases thought they had a hard time to get steady prices for the common kinds. Stockers and feed- ers sold in last week's notches where the quality was satisfactory, and where it was not they had to sell lower.

There were, how- ever, a falr number on sale for a Monday. The market held just about steady with the close of last week, and, while trading was not particularly brisk, the hogs kept moving toward the scales, 8o the bulk was disposed of in fairly good season. The heavy hogs sold largely from $.25 to 5.3, medium weights went from $.30 to $5.40 and_the lights sold all the way from $6.40 to $%.7. The top price was paid for a very fancy load of Berkshires welghing 194 ‘pounds. The price paid was of course much higher than the top on Saturday, but, considering quality and weight, it was not' much more than a steady price. There was not much change in the market until toward the close, when pack- ers had their more urgent orders filled, and they bought the last fow loads a shade lower. Representative sales: . Av. Sn.

Sloux City Totals CANTALOUPES FROM ILLINOIS Market, with Cali- fornia Freestone Peaches in Second Place, 647 Feature on the A car of finely flavored cantaloupes from Tllinols was one of the market features yesterday. ‘The melons were packed in large sized grape baskets, holding twelve to sixteen, and so'd for 50 cents. A car- 10ad of Sallways from California, was also made welcome, as there have been very few freestone peaches on the market for a week. They brought §1.10 and went rap- 1dly. A car of Utah freéstone peaches is on the way to Omaha, and the supply from Callffornia will be more plentiful in a few days. But housewives who desire to put up peaches this year are solemnly warned by the commission men to get in their sup- basket; Gabbage, & cents a domen; beans, 16 cents a basket; onlons, 75 cents a bushel. Apples s0ld from @ to 80 cents a bushe and home grown and Michigan grapes at % and % cents a basket. The proposed moving of the market to the Capitol avenue market house is still a subject of much conversation and specu- lation, but It was the almost unanimous opintfon of all those Interested that the city will not carry out the official an- nouncement to move the market today. AUTOMOBILES IN THE PARKS missloner Cralg Writes Concern- ing the Regulation of the Whiss Wago: OMAHA, Aug. 31.—To the Editor of The Bee: 1 desire to have a small space In your valuable paper to answer a few polnts brought out in an article headed, “Auto Owners in Protest" I am of the same opinion as Judge Ogden, that the restrictions against automobiles have been brought about by the reckless drivers of same. I am fully aware that the majority of our citizehs owning automo- biles have exercised common sense in thelr use, but we have a few who seem to think other ecitizens have no rights. We have evidence to the fact that when they were the cause of accidents they had not the manliness to stop and ascertaln what dam- age was done, but used the full speed ot the machine to get out of sight. I belleve It good judgment was exercised In the use of automobiles but a short time would any restrictions be necessary. I see where Judge Wharton says that this city should not be compared with a large city like Chicago. I would call the honorable judge's attention to the fact that in the city of Denver, which claims a popu- lation of 175,000, they have been obliged to adopt measures regulating automobiles, which measures are not sixty days old yet They are not prohibited from any park or boulevard streets, but the speed limit is not to exceed eight miles per hour, and when approaching any crossing of street or boulevard to slow up to four miles, and it they see any horse or horses frightened to come to a stop until they pass, under a penalty of $25 for the first offense. Each driver must have his machine registered and numbered, and must recelve a license to operate an sutomoblile before being al- lowed to operate a machine on any street, park or boulevard inside the city limits. I belleve in being liberal with the auto- mobiles, but our park and boulevard sys- tems were bought and improved so far at a great expense to the general citizens, and anything that has a tendency to debar the general public from the free use of the same ought to be regulated, and the Park boatd passed a resolution at its regular meeting in June prohibiting the sutomo- bile from Hanscom park, and limiting the speed anywhere else on the park or boule- vard system to not exceed eight miles an hour.
