NEW YORK, Aug. 6.—Wall street emerged | to-day from its gloom, which stiil clouded the situation during the early hours of the trading in stocks, and ar. effective rally in prices was produced. The day closed with an animated buying movement in progress and with the prices on the active list from 1 to over 3 points above Jast night. During the period of early weakness there were numerous declines of from 1 to 2 points, breaking through pre- vious low levels of the year. The early weak- ness was not universal, many stocks showing 3004 resistance and reflecting determined sup- vt by means of confident buying on the part rket managers for stocks.

It may be accepted a matter of course that covering of short sional traders played an | tmportant part in the recovery, as this class | of operators would not desist from putting out short sales as long the declige in priges | continued. The mere fact of the turn in go tide of the market also gave rise to a flood of rumors intended to explain the in_sen. {ment. The favorite rumor was that a coali- tion has been formed among the most powerful cepitalists in the country to buy all stocks that were offered and to lend freely to the distressed interests in the market.

The market con- | tinued weak the first half of the sesslon on an | entire absence of news which could be con- strued as favorable to the bulls, but toward | ! the noon hour there was falr buying by spec- | ! ulators and the price again recovered. One of the main causes for the advance was the | good export demand at the seaboard. Offer- ings were limited the latter part of the day and this fact contributed to the late strength. Under these Influences September sold up to 80%c and closed st 80%@50%e, 2 net gain of c. Trading In corn was comparatively slow owing to a lack of selling pressure. The late strength in wheat heiped corn prices and the | close was steady with sep(zmber unchanged at b52%e. Oats sympathized somewhat With the early weakness in wheat, but offerings were rather 1ight and prices recoversd without much effort. The close was firm with September c higher at 34%ec.

Western, 14@ | Deciduous and Citrus Fruits. Most descriptions under this head were in | fre¢ supply and market conditions showed lit- | tle change from the previous report. The river boats arrived a little behind _schedule time and brought large cargoes of Pears, | Peaches and Apples chiefly low-grade ‘stock Business on the wharf was brisk, but the ma- jority of dealers reported a dull market along the strect. The canners were working al- most exclusively on Bartlett Pears and pur- chused sparingly of Plums and Apricots. No. | 1 Bartlett Pears continued rather scarce and destrable lots readily commanded the top quo- | tations in the afternoon. OWINg to this short- | age of fancy fruit, there was a better mgve- | ment in lower grade offerings. Apples and | Peaches were in heavy supply and only fancy | shipping stock commanded the maximum quo- talons. Highly colored Gravenstein Apples packed In 4-tier boxes sold for shipping at $1 | per box, but it was difficult to obtain over | 75c for the common run. Figs, Plums and | Nectarines were steady under continued light 5 recelpts, All kinds of Melons arrived\ freely from several sections, and although the warm, | sunny weather stimulated the demand some. what, prices showed but little change. At tractive lots of Berries continued to sell read- fly at good prices. A - small | portion | of the receipts came to hand in poor order | and were sold below the quoted rates.
