murphy 8 Cos One, Cotton Letter


NEW YORK, Aug. i2,-There was nothing
in the early cotton market this morning either
to encourage extensive buving or selling.
Scalpers awaited Themselves Of the absence OF
demonstrations on the part of recent leaders
to step in now and then. Prices opened ld4
points higher. Despite the dizziness, friends OF
cotton were numerous and confident. 1t was
contended that the Carolinas and Georgia were
deteriorating rapidly and bulls used this with
some little effect after the opening In dis
couraging parties who were inclined TO OPP
crate on the short side ana who feared that
the weekly Government report would prove less
besrish than looked for and possibly rather
bullish. Receipts gave signs OF swelling to
lerge proportions by the close of the month,
but the more conservative element believe the
market should do much better regardless OF
the size of the crop simply because the worlds
takings must be enormous as the season adj

amongst sellers was IN evidence here. The
weekly crop report proved to be the prin-

tory with the exception of continued COM

market ruled quiet and steady and closing
quotations are 2 points lower on August and
2q3 points higher on other months. The mar
ket in its present condition is difficult

source of amazement to the majority OF
traders. but bearish sentiment continues to
