Murphy & Co. Cotton Letter.

New York. May 1.-THE cotton market
this morning opened unchanged. There
was some speculation at first on a mod
crate scale because of the close of Liver
pool until Tuesday next, but later on the
market was active on free selling of old
crop months, which broke sharply, New
Orleans selling here on large scale Sen
timent In cotton is pretty well mixed. The
weather has been so fine that the bears
are jumping to the conclusion that a big
crop is assured. Others contend that the
danger point will not be passed before the
frost season has set in. Surveying the
situation from all standpoints there is
nothing specially inviting for aggressive
operations for awhile. Manipulation of
summer months may lead to a Squeeze of
some Importance especially If we should
have a less favorable government renort
for June and July, and again magnificent
summer crop prospects may be dispelled
by the poorest kind of weather later on

the same story Of buying against a down
ward market. There has been too much
cotton for sale at the prices. Not actual
cotton but futures. AS has been pointed
out, 800 bales are held in the three big
markets which has to be delivered on
contract. The position has been artificial
in the extreme and as soon as people
begin to sell. away goes the level. But
things are getting in better shape grad
ually. but surely. If the good weather
will only keep up a few days longer and
bring out more long cotton August will
break to point where one can begin to
buy a little cotton without passing a
sleepless night. This has not been true
since July sold at these prices many
weeks ago. There Is no scarcity of cot
ton. Spinners hold 235,O0 bales more than
last year, and the visible Is only 100000
less but prices were cents higher not
long since. On break Monday we would
not only cover short cotton but below S1e
for August there is likely to be money
in buying for a turn.

New York. May 1.-THE cotton market
opened barely steady with prices points

points lower on the rest of the list. Fol-
lowing the call covering carried prices
up point or So but Wall street interests
appeared as large sellers. Commission
houses soon took a prominent part in
operations and unloaded liberal lines of
July and August cotton under which the
whole market turned wead. Unfavorable
COIL strike news, unrest in stock and
money circles in Wall street and a pro-
nounced break in the New Orleans mar
ket supplemented the fine weather and
crop reports from tho South. Exception
ally light port and interior town receipts,
reports that spot cotton was holding
steady pretty much over the whole belt
and bullish estimates for tho present
weekend statistics went for naught as
compared with the bearish influences
mentioned above. Within the first hour
July dropped to ST. and August to 8.4s
A slight rally followed but at the best

summer months. There were no cables

"Hatis.. Glrl" In Town.

'The dean of Chicago university
has pronounced against the hatless
girl, said woman at the seashore.
ut is exceedingly difficult to see Just
where the summer maiden vexes pro-
priety by her pleasant habit of going
hatless on a warm evening, or why,
when she carries a parasol, or travels
along country lanes or village streets
in covered phaeton on summers
day, it is also necessary to burden her
head with a hat Custom is a curious
thing. A woman is urgently besought
to remove her hat in the theatre. and
reviled for not doing so; and she may
go to balls with wisp of lace over
her couture, or sit hatless in her own
