STOCKS STOOD FIRM.
TENDER DAY FOR COTTON
_
Daily Market Letter Contributed
By A' Bohlinger & Com
pany, Brokers.
NEW YORK STOCKS.
| Early London cables showed an
advance in Americans on that
market and our opening prices
responded to this advance. Heavy
! selling of steel preferred; while
I it had a depressing effect, did not
i break the market and the early
! advances were well maintained.
While the total volume of
; trading was light the undertone
! was strong and the general sen
I timent is bullish. Watch Atchi
son, sugar and St. Paul.
Cotton—Liverpool came in this
morning with an advance of 2 to
4 points. During the early part
of the session prices declined a
fraction but later recovered and
closed equal to'the opening. Spots
firm at $7.76, 2 points above yes
terday. Receipts 17,000; sales
110,000. The large spot takings
; at Liverpool have lately been the
| feature of the cotton market.
The New York market opened
; 3 to 4 points up, and continued to
i advance, with occasional slight
! reactions throughout the entire
morning session. In the after
noon the trading was less active,
buu the price remained firm and
the close was strong at a net ad
vance for the day 11 to 14 points.
Spots steady at $13.85, with sales
of 810 bales, all for consumption.
CHICAGO PROVISION AND GRAIN.
Wheat was quite active today
and prices were further advanced.
An enormous acreage of wheat
has been ruined by. extreme wet
weather and devastating floods,
and this, together with a cessa
tion in liquidation, has had a very
bullish effect. A further advance
in July and September is ex
pected.
Corn again put the shorts to
rout today. Planting has been
retarded by the west weather
and the outlook is unfavorable.
Look out for a big' advance in
July within the next ten days.
Oats furnished the sensation of
the day in the grain markets, the
! May option advancing 2 cents
from the opening, and closing at
a net advance for the session of
1 5-8c. July scored an advance
1 1-8 on the day and Sept. 5-8.
Provisions continued strong to
day and the advance which took
place immediately after the open
ing was further increased. The
general sentiment is very bullish
and longs on July and Sept, pork
and ribs will undoubtedly pocket
substantial nrofits.

The toys and playthings of
Queen Victoria, which in their in
trinsic value do not compare with
the priceless jubilee presents, will
appeal to the sentiment of all who
see them, says the Minneapolis
Tribune. They are at the replica
of the Orangery at Kensington
palace, the birthplace of the
queen.
When a child she spent many
happy hours in the quaint old
j building, designed more than 200
years ago for the famous Queen
Anne.

KEYSTONE OF
Kimball
.
STRUCTURE.
~ *■ ":jk
The szale of the Kimball Piano is the keystone of its unsurpassazle quality, the founda* §
tion of its great musical worth, the cause of its popularity with artists and musicians. Perfect f
piano scale-making is a mathematical problem figured out by sound waves to the merest fraction I
of a sezond. Not all piano makers strive for perfection along this line (many making no pre
tense), but out of the few who have nearly reaJhed the goal,
Kimball is Promine£*(.
One of the most perfect musical scales is displayed in the zultivated human
inperfect scale piano is like a person who cannot sing correctly—it’s worse becak^
Jlaim to sing. It costs money to cultivate the voice, it costs more money to perfect
scale. The cost to produce a perfect Kimball scale has been no less than that of other «
recognized artistic pianos of the world, yet because of the advantages of the largest
I from any factory, we are able to sell the Kimball at a very moderate price, quality
The Kimball Bystem and easy payment plan brings it within reach of all.
