NEW ORLEANS coTToN FUTURES
New orleans. Sept. 1s.-cotton flu


New York. Sept. 16.-There was a
rally of 5 to IA points in the early cot
ton market to-day Gables showed a
satisfactory advance and so far as
the change of administration was con
cerned the feeling was that the mar
ket will remain undisturbed. Atten-
ton was again diverted to the crop,
and weather condition. Texas is hav-
ing an immense amount of rain in the
central part of the state, but this can
be of little or no value to the crop, and
is having no erect on the market On
the other hand the claim is set forth
that rains now will only put the crop
in worse shape. Prices at the end of
the first hour showed Is points ad-
vance. The fact appeared to be that
everybody sold short last week on the
news from Buffalo, and now the world
is taking hopeful view. Sellers are
anxious to buy back. Expectations
are that we shall witness much bet
ter market. At Liverpool prices ad-
vanced five points. Receipts at the
year. and the light movement Is at
tracing attention everywhere. Ad-
vices through reliable sources show
that Atlantic states developments
have been unfavorable for the crop
for the past month, and decided deter
ioration has resulted. 1t is significant
that these reports come from parties
who were quite positive in the state
ment a month ago or less that the crop
was doing nicely and that claims of
backwardness were simply fabrica-
lions. The main cause for complaint
appears to be rust, and the conclusion
is that the crop is decidedly spotted.
1t is falling fast in some sections and
those who previously ridiculed the
probability of damage now coneede
that there is justification for the re-
ports of deterioration. 1t is also to be
noted that Texas has had the biggest
rains of the season the week past, but
for helping the crop there 1t is con-
sidered out of the question.
