New Orleans. La, July 5.-McElroy
Co. say; Futures--The prevalence
OF exceedingly hot and dry weather
throughout the belt during the holi-
days caused the shorts in Liverpool
to take alarm and their covering
brought about net improvement
Of 4qi 5-64d. as compared with satur-
days prices. The reports of rain,
however. in sections of Texas. Arkan-
sas. Tennessee and northern Mississippi
caused halt TO the advance, and
the closing records a decline OF 1-0id
from the highest point touched. Spots
have been in only moderate demand.
the total sales for the three days being
$4,000 bales.
Prices are lied higher in sympathy
with Liverpool. Our market opened IL
points higher than Saturday, but the
gain was not maintained. and the clos
Ing we find prices up. Spots here are
steady; sales, 900 bales. A number of
replies received in response to an In
quiry gent out by us to correspondents
throughout the belt show that the
progress of the plant is thus far all
that could be desired, and in the face
OF such excellent prospects 1t is not
surprising that investors show no In
clination TO take hold.
The trade outlook Ia anything but
encouraging. and as Manchester ad-
vices this morning show a leaning to
the bear side, II looks as IL further de-
cline were inevitable. There is always
the possibility Of some misfortune
overtaking the plant. however. and
shorts recognizing this fact. are salts
ned with moderate profits. We are
therefore Of the opinion that the mar
ket will be scalplng one for the I'm
mediate future. and believe In sale on
all shorts.
