~ New York. May 13.-Riordan & co say
| Of cotton: THE crop accounts received
by wire from all parts of the
south to-day were so glowing that the
bulls tried in vain to support prices and
the result Of the day. trading was q
substantial decline. August opened al
S.14c advanced to size and closed at 80Sc
bid with the tone easy. In the early trad
ing Mr.. Inman sold freely, but he was a
buyer at the decline. There were fine
they were needed. If the crop reports
continue as uniformly good as they have
been lately, we do not think that any
manipulation can avail to prevent a ma
terial decline in the fan and winter
months"
New York, May 13-The Sun says Of
| cotton: Cotton advanced / to 4 points FOR
| near months, but later reacted and de-
clined 4 to points; next crop months
| opened unchanged TO points lower clos
| ing to 9 points lower, with the tone
| easy. The sales were 1920 bales To
! days features: The summer months
| showed advancing tendency at first
| to-day, under the stimulus of active local
| buying, as well as some purchasing for
| European account. Liverpool was dull
and easier, and the crop accounts were
| favorable, and those factors led TO liberal
liquidation. Rains. where needed. were
/ reported in Texas and the Mississippi val
| ley. Out-Of-town holders were selling the
summer months. Receipts at the ports
! were large, while The exports, on the other
| hand were very small Reports Of some
large spot sales for export failed to in
/ 1uence the market. Spots were dull. and
| prices at some southern points were
| easier"
