To-day's features: The llnch-pln was
pulled out from the vehicle Of speculation,
! and the cotton market came down with a
! hard Jolt. especially on this crop month,
| in which the selling was PARTICULARLY
heavy. notably far August New Orlsans
| rains were reported In the Carolinas ana
| CeOrgla-a fact which figures very largely
| I'm the days fluctuations. Good rams were
reported az Batesburg, Bennettsyllie, and
! Columbia. = c.. also at Fayetteville ana
| other places In North Carolina, as well as
| at Rome. Ca, Nicksburg, Miss, and IN
! other sections. The spOt-cottOn markets
were quiet, and here the spot quottuons
were reduced. on the way down stop
| orders as usual were caught. and they
cleared the way for more rapid decline.
| Early I'm the day the next crop months
| were slightly b no owing 20 buylhA oy

prices decline. Some OF the leading ooils
are supposed TO have sold quite freely IN
tho later business, and The South sent
selling orders owing 70 me rams ~ W.
Carolinqs. The speculation was larger
than on any dav for a week, but the exc
mansion OF business reported was que 10
long liquidation.
