New York, July 1.-THE feature Of to-
days cotton market was the report Of the
department of agriculture, giving the av-
erage conditions July / as 9l.2, against 80
on June l.. 1898, and S6 on July last year.
The bears had been predicting ~, while
the bulls looked for 3d. The report was a
stand-off and made little impression on
the market. Gables were unsatisfactory.
but were not sufficiently bcarish for ac-
ton, while the general run of the crop
accounts was too favorable for conf
dences on the long side Of the account.
The result was very narrow market,
which varied only 5 points all day after
openIng dull, but steady at unchanged
prices TO an advance Of one point. At one
time the market showed a net improve
ment Of 2f13 points on Saturdays prices;
az the close was steady, with prices I'M
changed to points net higher.
