 New Orleans. June 14..-The usual even- ing-up process common to the end of the week and the possibility of rains over Sunday, caused some covering by longs and a loss of the Improvement made yes te@day. This. of course, refers to the new crcp positions. In July, which ia follow ing an independent course. and which de- clned points yesterday. there has been further scattered liquidation and another decline of points. There will be practi- cally no outside interest in that month when delivery day arrives, so that the struggle between the two strong factions In July will interest the public only as speculators. Trading was light even for the half day. and the only item of inter- est was the development of a storm cen ter around Key Wet. While the Wealth CT Bureau predicts that it will move northeastward along the Atlantic coast, such storms sometimes take cratic courses. and 1t was a fear that the dis turbance migkt come into the Gulf and thus unsettle weather in the drought section. which caused cautious longs to sell out. The somewhat cooler tenpera- ture in the western section increased the fear of a change.
 While the chances of weather conditions control the situation. it is difficult to form a satisfactory opinion of the immediate future. although continuance of the pres ent dry spell Is likely to work permanent injury.

MARKETS FOR FUTURES
UNAVOIDABLE CABLES AFFECT
 PRICES AT OPENING.
Selling for Profits by Conservative Scalpers Caused Declines After Values Had Worked Upwards.
 Crop Advices Conflicting.

New York, June 1t-The cotton market opened with p.ices Pal points lower in re- sponse to generally uDfavorable Liver pcol cables. Whereas the advance of l l-s to !-s points had been expected In the English market on the New York closing of yesterday. that market closed quiet and net unchanged to 1-2 point higher. Spot cotton was quiet and 1-o2d lower on sales of only 5000 bales. More over. there was no foreign buying orders in hand to speak of. Yet the weather forecest indicated no relief from the drought over the central and western sections of the belt. and the map this afternoon gave positively no rainfall, where most needed in the belt Soon af ter the call prices rallied quite sharply on demand from smaller shorts. but at most business was a hand-to- mouth af- fair and Commis sion houses were with out much business. The whole list worked up to last nights prices with Co., tobeI at one time S.06 bid. Then came gradual reaction under selling for profits by conservative scalpers. and light Wall street bear pressure. under which prices eased of to the opening figures. The Chronicles crop weather summary of the week South was regarded as bullish, fut few traders were satisfied that actual damage has yet been sustained by the crcp as result of the dry weather The private telegrams stated that hot winds were prevalent in Central Texas. but that as general thing the plant was withstand!ng the heat and lack of mols- ture extremely well.

As a matter of fact, there has been no actual damage as yet ac- cording to all sources of information. in- cluding specials to Bradstreet, which to- day covers the whole cotton belt. inclnd- ing Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston and Brenham. These, as well as other towns, refer to the need of rain and point to the fact in most instances. that no injury has yet resulted. The character of the Liverpool cables today was not cncour- aging for the bulls. no material change being reported in that market. It Is un- derstood that Liverpool is not disposed to attach great importance to the dry wealth CT. inasmuch as the best local concerns calculate that the plant has not suffered as yet to any appreciabe extent. It Is considered. however, that the trade may become bullish if dry weather Is unbrok- en for week or two longer There is expectation of little rain at Savannah. Moisture was reported during the morn ing. but this made no impression on prices, which eased off to points after advancing ? to 6 points. The market again developed weakness on expected rain in North Texas. The visible supply today of all kinds is 2.S10000 against 3.040.- 000 last year. American visible, 1858 900 against 1853, GOO.
