American International Corporation, and It vns said by parties that should havo
full knowlcilKO that tho corporation 'has Increased Its holdings of both stocks 50
per cent within n short period. It Is nssumed that this buying must be primarily
based on knowledge of action to bo taken on tho 80 per cent accumulated divi
dends, to tho credit of tho preferred stock. 1'ubllc notice on this action Is not ex
pected until tho now board of directors Is elected In October.

movement In Marino Issues. C. D. Darney sold 1B.000 Inspiration Copper, and

and other stocks.
It was Inferred thnt this selling was for the purpose of providing funds for
handling tho heavy purchases of Murine common and preferred, but the room
Jumped to tho conclusion thnt recessions In United Stntes Steel common and other
stocks wero due to realizing unlet, but as n matter of fnct nearly nil the outaldo
orders wero on tho buying side of the market, nnd it was n rc&tionnblo conjecturo
that if It wcro not for tho selling by largo Interests In connection with the prices

NBW YORK. Sept. 5. A fairly firm tone
was displaced on the Cotton Exchange at
tho opening this morning. October started
1 point lower, being offered dawn 7 points
on th call between the first and last edle,
but other months were 2 to 9 points
b-lgher.

ing by Liverpool of the near options and
the buying- of distant positions. Uptown
Interests supplied various months and there
was some Killing oy commission houses and
for hedging,
Recent bulls, who sold out before the
holidays, appeared to be purchasing again,
nnd the snot Interests took substantial
quantities of October,
The Inlluences were the continued dry
Weather and the failure of Liverpool to re
rpond to Friday's decline. After the call
the market held steady at or near tho open
ing levels.
While there seemed to be a little hedgo
selling of near-months, as well as realizing,
early offerings were readily absorbed by re
buying of old longs and the operation of
bullish influence, which had been held In
check before tho holidays.
Active months sold about 19 to 21 points
higher by the end of the first hour, the ad
vance taking January contracts up to 16.30,
or within 18 points of the best level reached
sn the bull movement of last week. While
tome southwestern Interests were credited
with selling here, others were buyers, and
Liverpool was a buyer of January,
Trading was less active later In tho morn
ing, but prices held steady at reaction of
7 to 8 points.
The market was easier during the middle
t the day. The detailed weather reports,
showing considerable rain In Oklahoma over
the holidays, seemed to promote, realizing.
An easier ruling of New Orleans was ac
companied by some New Orleans selling
orders around the local ring.
Trading was less active than earlier In
the morning, but prices gradually worked
off some 12 or IS points from the best.

PAHtS, Bcpt. 6. The JJourse was strons
yesterday, pnrtlculnrly the Russian stocks.
Tho tendency to higher lovels was especially
noticeable nftcr tho news of the ncccptnnco
by Greece of the three demands formulated
by the Kntcnte Allies.
There lias been grcnt demand slnco the
voyage of the Deutschland to America for
subsidies to build up tho French merchant
marine. Franco has tried elnca 1892 to
build up the merchant murine by giving
hundreds of millions In nubMdles. but with
out effect. Tho Orst thing to find Is freight,
nnd French exporters always have usd
Antwerp more thnn French ports, nnd when
Alsace-Lorraine once moro Is French this
tendency will bo even stronger.

Intereslln, hut lending Investment houses
nrc feeling; qulto cheerful over the fact
that this year the month of August brought
them moro business than durlrnt any similar
period In a number of years.
The outlook, according to leading au
thorities. Is brleht nnd preparations are
being made for a good broad market later
In the fall. New onerinRs mm uci-i. ..
but the market has appeared to be .n ft
position to easily take care of them.
There has been no change of Importance
In the money market.
Thb sustained high levels of dcpoljlta In
the leading banks at the principal, financial
centers throughout the West gives cvldenco
of a. continuation of easiness In tho money
market. Tho Federal Reserve Bank of Chi
cago announced a reduction of one-hair of
1 per cent In discount! on maturities from
31 to 60 days. This tends to nccontuate
the fnct that demand for money la only
moderate. , . ,,
Indications are that, even with tho crop
mnvintf noeinri vietiiatli at hand, no nd-
vanco In present rates of Interest Is looked I
for during the remainder or me year, & i
If an advnnco should take place, nothing
no Indications of nny Immediate reanuJl
rowing on tho part of manufacturing t
mercantile Interests ns long as current ?M
