NEW ORLEANS Aug i8-Special Liver pool advices were disappointing consequently our market opeped | point lower. but advanced points from the bottom shortly after on-1e 1ess favorable crop accounts from the Carolinas and reports of hot winds in Texas doing damage However upon posting of the weather map Georgia had good rains over Sunday and the temperatures had declined east of the Missis- s'J pi River. This occasioned easlness later and accelerated by the receipt today of the net gain 4 points nall months except August, which advanced points. About ten days ago 1t claimedthere was exces sive moisture in Texas which was causing ravages by boil worms and weevils. Dry, hot weather contended being essential to kill these pests. The realization of the con ditions claimed being favorable are now eipE circulated being very damaging to the crop in that State. The question arises what will be beneficial now If no rains taE, place damage is claimed by the high tenn peratures and if rains occur damage is claimed by raVageS of insects It must that cot ton is not matured by heat. Practical farm state there has been an abundance of mois ture. and high temperatures tend to develop peratures always prevail in August and every one in the trade knows that the records cor roboratc these views The high temperatures damaging only when there has been a prolonged drought. Of course, if no rainJ were to materialize in Texas for several weeks more and tho temperatures were to continue eXces- sive, then there is doubt considerable dam age would result therefrom. While there are reports of deterioration in localities coming in operators believe on the whole the outlook is favorable. Nevertheless although the gen eral opinion is the crop has not yet met with any serious setback, there is no indication shown to sell short. 1t Is feared that spin ners will soon become free buyers and that the world requires large crop next year to All all requirements. as 1t Is anNcipated that the consumption in America will be ooo 900 bales over

 NEW ORLEANS, Aug. I9.-Weekly reports of foreign {; ;ade were again unsatisfactory. de- noting an absence of profit in business on the continent and indicating lack of approach to activity in Manchester on account of i'm practicable bids from chief consuming outlets. nevertheless Liverpool exhibited a steady front Deliveries cheered up to the extent of about l64d and spots arose l32d with sales If 6. 900 bales. Increasing complaints about the crop occupied the attention of traders here. Worms. as well as weevils said to be actively engaged in Texas, while the high temperatures and other causes were reported having effected serius deterioration in other parts of the belt. A slight improvement was established, but the market appeared inclined to only with extreme moderation.
 Closing quotations about points higher than Saturday. The unanirity of crop com plaints and the number arriving have caused traders to give serious consideration to this feature and while ideas of a large yield are still entertained in many instances confidence in that respect is not freely expressed at the mom.nt. The uncertainty as to how early receipts likely to be cared for is one of the chief subjects before the market and devel- opments in this connection will have some influence. though it may be of a temporary character.

Liverpool Slow to Follow the Better Feeling in New York-At the Close Values Were Up
 3 to 6 Points.

NEW YORK. Aug. I3-The cotton market opened easy with prices unchanged to points lower. this being about a fair response 10 disappointing Liverpool cables. European and lecal bear selling being conspicuous at the start. But the on Saturday the bulls stepped in and quickly bid the whole list upwards and caught the shorts. who beat nasty retreat. The Liverpool market was slow to follow the better feeling here. but toward midday a few buying orders began to make their appearance from abroad while the South became a vigorous buyer of the Winter op- tions. Close upon the heels of the latter buy ing were reports of hot winds in Texas and that a tropical storm had made its appear ance in the gulf. The latter failed 10 be con- frmed in the late Government weather report, but the official temperature reports from the Southwest noted a range of 9S to o4 degrees with little or relief in sight. Wall Street bid up the Fall and Winter months pretty much all the afternoon and local bulls bought cotton in anticipation of an unfa- yorable weekly crop weather report from Washington tomorrow. The precipitation bull letins gave fairly good rains ir the eastern portion of the belt but droushty conditions obtained as a rule west of Georgia. The re- ceipts were fairly liberal and did not figure as a factor either way. The market closed steady net 3q6 points higher. Fetal sales estimated at 100, 900 bales.

NEW YORK. Aug ls,-1n the early cotton market there few orders either way, and a general disposition to wal and wach he progress of the crop, prices at first moving down to the extent of lq3 points and then advancing points. Cables showed an inn provement and New England spinners were looking for suitable staple as a matter of fact the bulk of the repoAs now reaching us indicate great de:eriorat!on of crop rather than progress, but this was not unexpected; extreme bulls looking for the cotton 70 drop of between Aug. lst and Oct lst equal to last years decrease. which in the period named was about 6 points. Heretofore bad crop advices have been confined to Nsfy few houses and circulated by Wall Street bulls. but recently similar reports have been circu- lated by conservative interests and the natural result to check the tendency to sell which at times threatened to he heavy. Houses closely in touch with Liverpool and New Orleans were prominent in supporting the market this morn ing and their buying was suspected as being for account of the leading Wall Street operator. The movement of new cotton was free and the New York available supply has dwindled to only 5S,ooo bales against e4ooo on Aug. st Port receipts were estimated at 1000 against 2,6oo last year.
