Cs'aw York, July 31.—[Special.]—It Is sold
the fact that the Atchison management
used U'P $14,000,000 of assets and ran the
company Into $15,000,000 debt besides In five
years Is having a telling effect against the
proposed reorganization.
The market came almost to a halt. The
selling pressure of yesterday was not visi-
ble, and as to buying, there practically is
none exceipt to cover shorts. There was
some loud talk against Vanderbl'.ts. Cen-
tral and l>ake Shore, which were sold down

also put out 71% seller sixty, but more
carefully than yesterday.
London perched on the fence and re-
mained there. She did not relish the tariff
muddle or the treasury (position, and pre-
ferred not to buy.
The Ca-mma'ck faction hold about the
same view as London, and foelieve that un-
less an antidote is quickly given to the
gold shipments by Washington very much
lower prices await t'he market.

THE POST'S REVIEW.
New York, July 31.—The Evening Posit
says: Tihe greater firmness In the granger
stocks was preceded by a dowinwiaird re-
action In the price of corn. The conces-
sions, too, iwera obvious enoiugh, and es-
pecially when it Is known t'halt 'the g.raii
and seeui-lty market® haVe been -thiiS wee-1
dominated 'by t'he same clique of specula-
tors.
GO'LiD SHIPMENTS
'New York, Jiity 31.—It is estimated that
lallrout $2,000,000 gold will be Shipped on
Thursday's steamer.
I. E. G LENNY & CO.
(Jew Orleans, La., July St—Olemiy & Co.
say: Nelll's clneular as published to-day
had a very decided Ibearlsh tendency, pre-
dicting an Increased acreage and a large
crop, which will probably leave an exceed'
ingly lairgte surplus at the end of the com-
ing year. To 4t was attnlbulted the decline
of 3-04d iw'hijCh touk place in Liverpool to-
day. In sympathy with Liverpool, our
markat opened .at a decline of 3 to 4 pollmtB
and sales were made in t'he early morning
at 5 points below yesterday, but later in
(t'he <Iay prices Improved from 'tihe ex-
treme depression, and we closed steady at
Cast night's figures. If the present outlook
of tihe growing crup 'Continues, and 'Uhene
is no decided improvement in the state of
trade, t'he probabilities are that we may
yet see lower prices, as the only strength
the market now appears 'to have mines
fl'J.-n the covering by shorts to realize
profits on depressions, such as we 'had to-
<Jliy. Receipts of mew cotton alt Houston
to-day were 120 bales and ait Galveaton 12
bales, and holders of- spot cotiton are evi-
dently influenced ,by the probability t»f
large receipts of new ooitton during the
month of August, and are meeting tihe
market freely, sales here ito-day being 2050
blaies of spot and 550 to arrive.
ATWOOD VIOLETT & CO.
New Orleans, La., July 31.—Atwood Vlo
lett & Co. say: The event of the day was
the publication of Mr. Nelll's report, which
(has apparently been known here for some
time already by a great many people. He
expects an acreage of 21,000,000 acres, estl
mates the probable outurn of 8,900,000 with
the possibility of 11,000,000, and a minimum
[in case of a calamity to the crop] of
8,500,000 bales. He further estimates the
stock in European ports and mills on Oc-
tober 1 at 3,180,000, against 2,000,000 this year.
This estimate is based upon a visible sup-
ply on September 1 of 2,100,01)0, a crop in
the United States of 8,900,000 and American
consumption of 2,700,000, against 2,30l),000 this
year. We have no comment to make on
these figures, which we leave to the Judg-
ment of our readers, except to express our
opinion that it seems to us very hazardous
to publish such estimates this early in the
season. Spot sales here summed up 2050
bales and 050 to arrive, while New York
sold 2195 bales, of which 1495 to spinners.
Galveston received 12 bales of new cwtton
and Houston 120 bales.
M'EiLlROY & CO.
Neiw Orleans, La., July 31.—McElroiy &
Co. say: Futures—iMr. Nelll's circular on
cotton acreage and ,probable yield was
made pulblic this morning, but the course
of prices show that Its influence had been
largely discounted by the decline of the
past ifew days. Its effect was most felt
in Liverpool, where the opening decline
was 3-64d, but there was some recovery
from the lowest and the closing is steady
at a loss of 2-04d to 3-641. Spots dropped
3-32-1 with sales otf 8000 bales. It was
thought here that the downward course of
prices would meet with some resistance on
the basis of 6'Ac for December, but the sup-
ply of selling orders was so great that
the demand was quickly filled and prices
sold a couple of points lower, only to re-
cover again when it became evident that
shorts were desirous of taking in their
prolits when the market did not drop as
heavily as thef expected. Mr. Neill's fig-
ures that the acreage has fully recovered
the loss made in 1892-93 [Tennessee and
Louisiana excepted], while Texas and the
Indian territory have Increased very ma-
terially so that he now estimates the total
area in cotton for the crop just planted at
21,000,090 acres. He calculates on this in-
creased area a prospect of 10 per cent im-
provement in the yield per acre, which
would mean an outturn of 8,900,000 bales.
'He adds, however, that the promise at the
moment is equal or superior -to any pre-
vious crop in every state and, therefore.
If present prospects of a full crop should
be realized the yield might rise as Ihlgh aa
8.600.000 bales. The strongest colnt in his
review of the situation 1* & statement that
nothing but n. calamity, such as randy oc-
curs, could bring th# crop down to even _so
bales.
Takliijg his
... _ pruibaible yield
1>ale.s and ,\lr. HOlllson's figures of current
low a figure us 8,500,000 bales. Taking I
stimate of a probable yield of 8,600,000
European consumption Mr. Neill estimate*
that thu visible supply on the 1st of Hep-
temlber, «)!,, will 'be 3,130,000 bales, which
is larger by 700,000 bales than any surplus
carried over froim any previous crop, of
course, tne natural query Is to what point
will such a weight otf surplus stock depress
prices. Hut before answering that ques-
tion it might not be amiss to await the ef-
fect on the crop of the weait'her for the
coming month, usually the most critical
period of Its growth. There was a good
spot demand to-day, and sales aggregated
2700 bales at unchanged prices,

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
New York, July 31.—The share speculation
to-day was very dull and the transactions
were the smallest for any full day for
many weeks, aggregating less than 95,000
shares. The market was purely a traders'
one, the commission houses were without
orders and the dealings for the foreign ac-
count were very trifling. Were It not for
sugar the total sales of the day would
have been Insignificant indeed, but that
football was brought Into good play as
usual and furnished the board room with a
little selling 'to do. The stock was erratic
in its movements^ Opening % lower than
the closing price on yesterday, the shares
made a further decline of % and then
quickly advanced %, only to immediately
give way again under sharply selling move-
ments, which sent the prices down 1%. At
the lower range of values there was some
buying which ca-used a rally of %, but a
renewal of the soiling resulted la another
reaction of % pto- cent to 103%, the low
point of the day. A rally of %, a reaction
of % and a recovery of % In the final deal
In-gs followed, making the decline on the
day 1%. The grangers, which were heavy
yesterday, recovered their tone to some ex-
tent, the decline iji the price of corn, due
to more encouraging reports from the corn
belt, having the effect of raising the prices
of these stocks. Burlington and Qulncy
and Northwestern- opened unchanged. Rock
Island being dowre % and St. Paul %. Sub-
sequently Rock Island and Burlington each
lost %, the other two shares of the groups
not going below the opening. Advances
were made of % in Northwestern, % in
Rock Island and Burlington and % in St.
Paul, which was 3iot maintained, the final
sales being at reactions of %@%, except in
the case of Northwestern, which closed at
'Che best figures of the day. These few
stocks were the only ones in which there
was any real speculation, but some of the
specialties record, k! wide fluctuations on
small trading. New York, Chicago and St.
Louis first preferied made a break of 2%
and Minneapolis and St. Louis preferred
selling up to 2 per cent. Pullman lost 1 per
cent at 'the opening but regained 'the loss
on the next sale, there being only two
transactions of 100 shares each during Che
day. The movement in the rest 'Of the list
was very slight and the closing quotations
show little fractional changes from yester-
day. Th# market was fairly firm at the
close.
The railway and miscellaneous bond mar-
ket was generally firm but dull, the main
changes being advances in Kansas Pacific
sixes of 1885 of 1% and Oregon Navigation
firsts 1 per cent; declines, Green Bay,
Winona and St. Peter incomes 2% and Ore-

Chicago, Till., July 3l.-Corn hesitated In
Its sensational advance to-day and wan lc
lower at th.» Unii^h. Good rains In the corn
belt and the iproHpcct of more cause the
lecllne.
Wheat was weak, Influence ! by corn und
<uvy receipts, ami close>l with a loss
' ' iC,
Oats closed lc lower and provisions with
but little change.
In wheat tie1 re was an active trade dur-
ing the early 'hours, but fiater the imarket
became rath r quiet. The feeling displayed
was w akening, Opening trades were at
53 Uc for Sup temlber, %tf/7sc decline, and
after selling off a fraction more advanced
then Uroke l^c rallied :H»c, changed
same and clostM with Weptt*m1>er at 63*%c.
The weak opening was influenced by the
break In corn and the rains, t'he crowd
selling freely and the market became
oversold, a "few 'buying orders starting the
shorts to covering, whloh caused the early
advance. There were fresh lines put out
on the rally, ithe liberal movement at win-
ter wheat points and 'big receipts in the
northwest 'being over twice as large as a
year ago, at Minneapolis and !>uluth act-
ed as depression -factors, Cables were
firmer, 'but only responded to the advance
here yesterday. The principal bullish fac-
tors <yf the day were the 'heavy exports,
the total clearances of wheat and flour
footing up 6i>5,000 -bushels, of Which 235,000
bushels were In flour.
There was less excitement in corn and
not so mueh unxiety displayed, the situa-
tion ibeoom'jng more settle 1. influenced by
better-pr )sp,.'cts lor the crop, outside buy-
ing orders were much less numerous, but
on the contrary a good deal of seli.ng was
done for the country. The g Moral tone
was easier and lower prices ruled from tne
start. The weaker feeling was attributed
to the rains.
The market opened with c msiderable
nervousness, with trades at l'^/'l^c de-
cline, at 451.c for (September, and gradually
rallied 1!4 tor .September an l l'» for May.

The range for the day was %c for Septem-

In corn, but rallied later on fair 'buying
and scarce offerings. Compared with last

Arclvblshqp Oorrigan's Oonta-oversy
the Wine and Spirit Oazette.
New York, July 30.--The World will say
to-morrow: Archbishop Corrlgan has writ-
ten a very important letter to the editor of
the Wine and Hpirit Gazette, in whiCh he
makes an authoritative statement with re-
gard to the decision of Mgr. Satolll affect-
ing Roman Catholic liquor dealers. T.he
archlblshop'9 letter was called fortfh by an
editorial recent'.y published in the Gazette,
Which says of Mgr. SatoCli's decision: "VVi.l
It be enforced In the cities of the coun-
""Fully two-thirds of the retail liquor
dealers of the country are Roman Cath-
olics Some of them are liberal contrib-
utors to the church funds. We appreciate
fully the delicate position of AtcMbltfhop
Corrigan aaid the other bishops of tihe
Catholic church in this country are placed
in by the decree uf the papa! delegate.
We voice the sentiments or the large ma-
jority of the liquor dealers of this city
and 'Brooklyn In saying: 'We ilaire Arch-
bishop Corrigan to enforce in letter and In
spirit the decree against the liquor tmlHc
just issued by Mgr. Satolll. the papal
gate. Let the arohlblshop do it and
the consequence.' "
The archtiWhoipa letter is In his own
handwriting. In It he says:
"in reply 'to your expressed wish, t have
the honor to say tihait I loyally accept the
pninoipies Iwld down by Mgr. SaiUoCU, both
in the spirit and in 'the leCter. More ith-.in
this, no Cj t'hollc can refuse to accept them.
As to the fear of oamsequences, 1 have yet,
'thank God, 'to learn what fear is in th,a
discharge of my duty. Please remember,
however, 'that acceptance or principle* is
not to be confounded with the biind a.p-
plicatd'on of tihe same on all oeoaisiotos and
under all circumstances.
".VI. A. CORROjGAN."
Tilre editor of 'the Gazetite [Smithl has
■th's 'to say about the archbishop's letter:
"The Misiver dwes not entirely and fairly
me?t the Issue. It is not the question Of
accepting a principle iald down by the
church, but of the courage to carry out,
in letter arid spirit, the principles Just pro-
claimed by the papal delegate to the face
of s -emlngly adverse public sentiment. The
•issue i«: 'Will the a-ndhbtishop give <»nle«u
to refuse admission to Roman Cathoiile
societies to any one engaged, aither as
principal or agemt, In the manufacture or
mule of llquoTS, and will 'he insinuot 'the
clergy to deny the nights and privileges
of the church to liquor dealers who sell
on Sunday?
"The declanat'on of 'the archbishop seems
to justify the conclusion that, in 'the din-
charge of this duty, he will enforce ithtase
princiipals, although lie does not say so,
in -his letter, in distinct terms. Future de-
velopments; wl'.l show bow far this con-
clusion Is JuBtifled."
