longing to the Romany potentate. The an

ACTIVITY IN COTTON MARKET.
Bull Sentiment Ruled Strong, but
Failed to Find Response.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.


New York. June ai-There was a decided
bull movement in the cotton market at the
opening to-day. and prices were pushed
up points. There was a lack of response.
however. and the bulls showed decided ner-
Vousness over the situation.
The bull sentiment was strengthened by
reports Of continued drought and hot wealth
er over the Southwest and by official re-
ports Of higher spot cotton prices South.
On this showing there was some investment
for outside accounts, but the advance was
eventually lost and lower prices prevailed
al the closing.
There Is some question over the real con-
dition Of the crop In Texas conflicting re-
ports being made almost daily. There Is no
authentic Information that there has been
any deterioration and the conditions re-
ported have been quite satisfactory.
There are now over 10000 bales of cot
ton in the local warehouses. and this will
be increased before the end Of July to I5O-
90 bales. In Liverpool stocks now amount
to 5000 bales in store and afioat. as com
pared with ST. 90 bales last week. $4,000
bales last year. ard t.3i5.0O bales year be-
fore last. While stocks are now in excess
OF last year. they are much below the nor
mai during the past few seasons at this
time. From now on the stock usually de-
creases rapidly abroad, so there In not like
ly to be an excess of cotton there on Sep
tember l.
Two bales OF new cotton were reported
from Texas. about the earliest ever re-
ported.
