II. & B. BEERS MARKET LETTER.

Especial to the News and Observer
New Orleans, La, June 24.-Early Liy-
erpool advices were more favorable
than expected and our market in SYM
pathy opened to points higher, sub
sequently improved to additional
when it. was ascertained that the fair
weather prevailed throughout the belt
with no rain during the past twenty four
hours, being accelerated by the predic-
tion for fair weather in Texas during to-
light and Wednesday. About this time
Liverpool became easier on the post
ponement of the coronation services and
the report that King Edward had been
operated upon for appndicitis. Values
here in response sagged slightly, but
again became steadier after the issuance
of the weekly weather report, which
was favorable for all States except
Texas and portions Of Louisiana. The
net gain on the day was to points.
The summary of the weekly weather re-
port WAS as follows: AS in the previous
week cotton has experienced favorable
conditions over the northern portion of
central and western district and gener-
ally throughout the eastern portion of
The cotton belt, lice, however, are more
extensively reported and some fields in
South Carolina are grassy, with little
rain in Texas and only scattered show
ers over the southern portion of the
central districts The growth of cotton
has been checked, especially in Louis
lana and Texas, and in the last named
State shedding, blooming to tops and
unsatisfactory fruiting are reported,
but lice and boil weevil are disappearing.
Late reports relative to the King were
that the royal family had been sum-
moned to his bedside as his condition
was precarious. In the event of the
Kings death it will have the tendency to
unscttle finances and may disrupt bust
ness generally. The continued absence
of rains in Texas for week or ten days
more will undoubtedly cause consider
able apprehension as to the probable
outturn of that State.

A summary of the weekly crop bulletin of the Arkansas weather bureau, for the week ending April g, shows that unfayorable weather .conditions have retarded farming Operations and work is generally two weeks behind in almost all sections of the state; wherever the weather permitted, work has been pushed rapidly. The weather has not been favorable for the proper germina tion of seed and the growth of yegc- .tation. Some corn has been planted in all sections, and in some localities Is almost completed, but the bulk of the crop remains to be planted. Some preparations are being made for cotton planting, but none has been planted. Wheat and oats, as d rule, do not present very fatterlng prospects, although in many locali
 ties the chanagshETAOINTAOIN ties the change has been for the bet ter, oats especially has improved and the stand is fair to good. Some po- tatoes have been planted, and are coming up in some sections,N while in others they are not doing well and are rotting in the ground. Fruit trees are budding and have received no injury from the late frost.
