 NEW ORLEANS, June 24.-Early Liverpool advices were more favorable than expected and our market in sympathy opened 245 points higher. subsequently, improved 3I5 additional when it was ascertained that the fair weather prevalent throughout the belt with no rain during the past 24 hours being accelerated by the prediction for fair weather in Texas dur ing tonight and Wednesdav. About this Liver pool became easier on the postponement of the coronation services and the report that King Edward had been operated upon for appendi- citis. Values here in response sagged slightly but again became stead!er after the issuance of the weekly weather report, which was fa- vorable for States except Texas and portions of Louisiana. The spsns Na3ns on the day was 3G5 points. The summary Cf the weekly weather reports was as follows: As in the previous. week cotton has experienced favor able conditions over the northern portion of central and western districts and generally throughout the eastern portion of the cotton belt. Lice. however. are more extensively re- ported and some fields in South Carolina are grassy with little rain in Texas and only scattered showers tho Southern portion Of the central 1istricts.s The growth of cot .o-1 has been checked especially in Louisiana and Texas and in the last named State she'd fruiting are reported. but lice and bolt weevil are disappearing. Late reports relative to the King were that the royal family had been summoned to his bedside as his condition was precariaus. In the event of the Kings death, 1t will have tendency to unsettle finances and may disrupt business generally. The continued absence of rains in Texas for week or ten days more will cause considerable apprehension as to the probable outturn of that State

There was comparatively no change in deliveries from yesterday, prices and spots were marked up i-l6d with sales of 10000 bales. The news from abroad had dis quieting effect here. fbnt as a rule the atten- 1ion of traders, was directed with more seri- ousness to the Sseather fasp and tha absence of additional rains combined with the 2kly bureaus account of continued drought in Tex as checking growth of the plant and caus- ing much apprehension about the crop servei to establish steady tone Clcsing quotations 3n5 points higher than yesterday. The curiosity of the trade regarding the outcome of the July engagements will soon be satis- fled. but those without interest af- ford to be patient and observe the result Concerning crop deliveries active iuctua- tions are quite likely to be the rule. There are many who operating with the belief that large crop and lower prices are next to cer- tainties. whle the other hand the post ponement of general rains in Texas is creating much doubt about the prospects of the crop in that State. Thus developments of any char aeter will probably receive prompt recogni- tIpn for the time being.

NEW YORK June 24.-No little surprise
 was occasioned this morning when the market for cotton rose 2m5 points and continued to adance until 10 points gain was shown. The carly reports from Liverpool were assuring as to prices but after their receipt came the news of the Kings illness and indefinite post ponerlent of the coronation. This caused a temporary halt in the eaEerness of bulls to buy on the Texas weather situation. No rain was reported in that State early in the day and moreover no rain was in sight while there was expectation of a hullish weekly crop report from Washington at noon. But regardless of all other considerations the fact remains that the month of June Is drawing to a close with a drought of severity in some sections of the State and the situation is fast approaching serious one. Rains may yet hep to make a big crnp but their delay may reduce the yield decidedly and this is borne in mind.
 Shorts were covering and Liverpool vas buy ing here. but despite the early Tain the market was dull The weekly crop report from Wash fngton made reference to the drought in Texas and was on the whole favorable eX- cept for portions of Texas. Louisiana and South Carolina. Receipts at all ports today

There was a partial reaction later in the morning under selling for profits by the more timid longs in part due to a further reaction from top in the Liverpool market an1 in part to weakness in the stock market. But the weekly Government crop weather report which came cut at midday once more turned the scale in the bulls> favor and for the rest of the session the tendency was steadily up- ward with prices closing about top. Shorts were nervous buyers throughout the last hour. with prominent Greek spot cotton Interests and the Wall Street contingent apparently the leading bidders.
