 Reports were received here by commission houses of hot winds and damage to wheat il oouth Dakota yesterday. They have caused some damage. These reported have emanated chiefly from Minneapolis, while reports from Duluth are of a contrary na- ture. Wheat opened up strong on the bet ter tone of Liverpool and the damage re- ports from the northwest, which fright ened the local shorts interest into covering At the close half the advance was lost Local shorts have evened up oyer Sum day and next weeks markets will be gov efned entirely by weather conditions. A weather market is hard one to gauge, and at the present time it would look proper to be conservative as far as mar ket operations are concerned, but on sharp breaks around present values we believe purchases should be made, as it looks very much to us as if liquidation had run it's full course and what selling that now ap- pears Is Cor the short account.

 New Orleans. July 22.-Liyerpool closed one-half sixty-fourth up on futures and unchanged on spots, with sales of 5000 bales The weakness in the market today was directly attributable to good rains In the Atlantic and interior cotton states where drouth has been complained of. The following falls are reported by the govern- ment: Atlanta, inches; Montgomery, 102; Memhis, 2.34 Little Rock, .34; Mobile, 26; Oklahoma, 2.2S: Fort Smith, .7S. It will thus be seen that the rains were very gem eral and as a rule covered the sections where lack of moisture has been com plained of. This naturally caused an easy opening here, first quotations being to 3 down, very little effort to hold prices was forthcoming from he longs. The mar ket further sagged off to 3 points and closed steady at to points loss on the day. The spot market was easy at un- changed quotations. Sales, 100 bales; 1,2JO to arrive and 300 delivered on contract.

Cotton Letter

By Leased Wire to. T. G. Hewlett, Agent.
 While Liverpool was higher than yester- day by half point, the advices were not so good as expected, hence we opened here to points down. The good crop reports for the Chronicle doubtless had their ef- feet on both sides of the Atlantic. Good rains were again reported this morning along the Atlantic and heavy at some places off the gulf.
 After opening the market ruled dull and steady with no particular feature and only moderate business.

 New York, July 22.-The cotton market was again influenced by the heavy rains in Georgia and elsewhere and especially in the former regeon, close on to four inches being reported at Atlanta. Cables failed .o respond to our rise of yesterday, being only 12d higher, with spot sales but 5000 bales
 Buyers hesitated in consequence of these conditions, and the market was quite tame. Showers were again indicated for most sec- tions. SoWe New Orleans dispatches were very bearish on crop. Prices kept within a narrow range, and the total sales wefs small, with ths close 8 to 5 points lower

By Private Wire from New York Sun.
 New York, July 22.-Before the appear ance of the weekly bank statement the market was dull, but in opening trading gains were made in the active list par tially due to a substantial improvement in the London market for interna tional shares. Pennsylvania New York Central, Rock Island and Brooklyn Rapid Transit were the features of the early dealings. London reports were to the effect that the Pennsylvania dividend would possibly be increased to per cent, while October was named as the month for the first dividend on Baltimore and Ohio preferred. New York Central was particularly strong on good buying. Brooklyn Rapid Transit trad ing was strong, stimulated by reports that it would absorb the only independent sur- face railroad system in Brooklyn and one noted for value of its franchise and su- perior management. The industrial quarter of the market was quiet. Reports of crop damage in the northwest were not taken seriously. the Granger group holding un- changed. It was reported that arrange ments to pay dividends will be made in the Federal Steel company with Q banking in- stitution. It proposed to have trust com pany buy the dividend rights, which could be redeemed at the close of the fiscal year.

What the Financjer Says

New 1ofk, July 2.-Ihe New York Fi- nancier says this week: The reduction of $12,JOO,O00 in the deposits of the New York banks last week lessened reserve require- ments about S3,0OO,000. The institutions, however, according to their current state ment, lost $l ,b49 lu0 cash and for this reason the increases ln surplus reserve was only $1 1,156SoO, which brings present legal hold ings l2,505600 above legal requirements. The decrease in loans was nearly $9 600 900. In the last three weeks the banks have contracted outstanding loan obligations of no less than $26.000,000. In the same time deposits have been decreased nearly $27 ,500,- 0UO while the cash in the banks has remain ed stationary.
 There is no question, however, that the banks are now gaining cash even if the statement does indicate otherwise. The known operations of money last week were decidedly in favor of the institutions, the loss of three-quarters of million to the treasury having been offset by the gain of something like two millions to the interior The current exhibit does not reflect this, but it is to be said that the losses shown can be traced to two or three large banks, the remaining members having really strengthened their positions. As to the out look, the opinion is that there is nothing in the situation at present to warrant an undue expansion in bank figures. The Equt- dation which began with July has run it's course to large extent, and while the present is a md-season period, the move ment of money will probably continue this way for some time to come Foreign ex- change authorities agree that gold exports, except as special transactions, are to an end, and while the crop season is near at hand, it is not anticipated that the demand this year will cause much of drain from New York. Interior bank reserves are above the average, and this, coupled with easier rates for money abroad, and the cer- tainty that exchange will rule in favor of New York with the coming grain exports seems to favor the relaxation ather than Q rise in rates here for the time.
