New York, June 22.-Riordan & Co. say
of cotton to-day: ut is still a waiting
market. Liverpool lost most of what she
gained Saturday, and our market opened
lower, August selling on the call at
7.25c, there being no further rain reports
from Texas, some of the timid shorts be-
gan TO cover and quickly ran August up
TO 1850, but, as threatening weather was
reported from the southwest, there was
plenty of cotton offering at the advance,
and August quickly receded to 1880. Aug
u9t again FdllleQ 10 i.51c ana closed STEADY
at f.32c bid. We repeat our belief that
nothing serious has happened to the crop
lower''
New York, June 22.-The Sun says Of
cotton to-day: Cotton dropped to :
points on the general list early in the
~ aiu points on August, but regained
~ los ground and advanced to points.
o 6glore the close, however, there was an
VeHSl lSdcuoh which left most months l
70 p9lhtS lower with the tone steady
39 M sales 1872 500 bales To-days features
mere was practically no rain in Texas
and # the dry weather IN that state CON
5 5l3 s: much longer it may prove OF deci-
ped interest to the cotton trade in two
hemispheres. Too much rain * renorted
IN MaSSlssippi, moreover, and the cool
nights IN that state are not beneficial FOR
me crop. In parts of Alabama also there
mas peen too much rain. The corn cron
IN Texas is said to have been nearly r1,fn.
20 Dy the drought and the coTion erop In
mar state IS under the circumstances
considered well worth watching Mr. II
N. NELL OF Now Orleans, who is now here
IS quoted as saying that the rainfall thns
II IL the season in Texas is six incbes
teas thar during the same time Iasf 500.
