NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-The SUMS cotton
review says: Futures opened at 102 points
decline, quickly rallied, afterward in proved,
closing firm at 244 points advance from yester-
days closing prices. The market to-day was
almost a repetition of that of yesterday Liver
pool declined and we followed suit. Then came
buying to cover contracts. A stop order for a
considerably quantity came upon the market
The early decline was quickly recovered, and
some further advance took place. The weekly
crop reports made public this morning were
not favorable to bears. The appearance of
| boil worms was reported; also rust and in
creased shedding of bolls. 1t was likewise
| noticed that for the first time in good deal
| more than year deliveries from plantations
| fell below last year. The excess in visible sup
| ply has fallen in . few weeks from 79S 600 TO
| 63S,000 bales. The current consumption of
Europe per week is 1900 bales of 400 pounds
each IN excess of last year. Spot cotton was
