sent us good advance this morning and
traders generally looked for a higher open
ing here, but the financial Chronicles
favorable that many timid holders sold
out on the opening and first prices showed
no Improvement as compared with yes
terday's closing bids. The disappointing
opening caused more selling, and during
the two hours of trading the market sagg--
ed without any reaction, ending at the
lowest of the day. The decline amounted
TO about points. August opened at 6 73c
and closed at 6.66G6.67c, with the tone
barely steady. The receipts are no longer
regard ed with languid interest. The ac-
counts from rhe south in regard to the
acreage, the progress of the planting and
the character of the season are and hence
forth will be the main factors in CONTROL
ing the course of prices From all the
information we have been able to gather.
we are satisfied that Notwithstanding
the advance, the actual reduction in acre
age throughout the cotton belt will be
found considerably greater than was gen
orally expected a month ago Almost
everywhere the season is late and a large
majority of our correspondents report
that the crop has had a bad start. The
general outlook, we think is one that
ought to satisfy the bulls. Unless Liver
pool should give US unexpected encour-
agement on Monday, to-days decline may
go further. but we don't anticipate any
serious break, and even if prices should
go lower we feel that they they will re-
cover and go higher than they have ever
been since the rise began"
