COTTON FUTURES.

New York. Aug. 1.-The cotton
market oNened quiet and firm with
prices l to 4 points higher on light
general buying, then turned quite
strong and advanced rapidly on a
scare of shorts, based largely upon the
bullish condition figures of the Jour
nal of Commerce. The figures of the
latter were taken to foreshadow an
equally bullish statement by the bu-
reau next Monday. Speculation was
fairly active during this squirt in
prices, and whereas early English ca
bles were not attractive from either
standpoint, that market hardened and
sent buying orders here. The whole
character of the market changed over
to the bear side within the first hour
on official reports of clearing weather
over the entire Western belt. and of
continued showers to heavy rains over
the central and eastern belt. A sharp
reaction of to 8 points followed, with
liquidation and bear selling quite ac-
tive. but still later prices slowly
worked back to the highest figures of
the day with covering once more a
feature. The close was quiet with
prices net, to points higher. Total
sales about 100000 bales.

H. & ID. Beers Cotton Letter.

New Orleans, Aug. Liverpool ad-
vices were not encouraging, but not
withstanding this our market opened
1@2 points higher on the New York
Journal of Commerce July report of
condition, showing a loss of SO points
from that of June. Shortly after, how
ever there was a continued pressure
to sell, which occasioned a decline of
1904 points. Thereafter, though, shorts
covered, fearing that the Journal of
Commences report might be a fore
runner of the bureau on Monday,
caused an improvement of 5@7 points
from the bottom, making the net gain
3@4 points on the day. The total stock
of America ashore and afioat to Liv
erpool is 400, 900 bales, against 463, 900
last year, and 462, 900 year before last.
The thirty-one leading interior towns
received during the week 400 bales,
against Il, 900 last year and 1880 year
before last, and they hold in stock
6S0 900 bales, against 900 last year
and Al, 900 year before last. The WIS.,
ible supply of American during the
week decreased $500 bales, against
loss of $1,000 last year and $4,000 year
before last, and the aggregate supply
of American to date is 1,091, 900 bales,
against 1926, 900 last year 1928, 900 year
before last Beneficial rains fell in
Arkansas, Tennessee, Louisiana and
Mississippi. The weather has cleared
in Texas and the rain area has moved
eastward. The predictions are for fair
weather tonight and Saturday in
Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana and
occasional showers and thunderstorms
throughout the balance of the belt. Re-
ferring to the bureau the report issued
on Aug. last year made the general
average condition 77.2 per cent, or
decrease of 36 points under that is
sued on July this year. The gen.
eraI average condition on July was
84.7 per cent, consequently allowing
for the same deterioration of S.9 points
during July last year, the condition
would be S0.S, as compared to 77.2 last
year. The weather conditions during
the past month have on the whole been
favorable, and would warrant the bu-
reau in issuing general average con-
dition as good or better than last
month, but from experience the trade
knows that the bureau advices are
generally more pessimistic than pri-
vate ones. Therefore. it is probbale
that the average condition will range

Although no large arrivals of new

The Morning News Office,
Friday, Aug. 1.
The cotton futures markets braced
up to-day on the strength impaired by
the covering of shorts frightened by a
combination of bullish circumstances
and what appears to be a forecast of
a bullish government report on Mon
day. The New York Journal of Com
merce, which has in the past pre-
pared some excellent crop reports,
shows the condition of cotton for July
to be SO per cent. below that of July
1901, and for Texas AS per cent. be-
low the average condition for July 1901.
1t was concluded that this forecasted
to some extent the government report
to come out on Monday Shorts sought
cover and caused prices to work UP
some, New York losing steady 2 to 5
points above yesterdays closing. New
Orleans also closed higher.
In the local spot market practically
nothing was doing. Exporters are in
the market for August and early Sep
TENDER cotton, and from present in
dications trading will be active by the
middle of August
Turpentine closed firm at 43%c, with
the demand good. Resins closed firm
with the demand satisfactory. The
wholesale markets closed steady and
in the main unchanged. The following
resume Of the markets will show their
tone and quotations at the closing to-

advices indicate that the recent rains
have made no damage that is not cas-

sensitive, however, and waits for the
figures of the bureau on Monday next.
The fluctuations represent the mo-

steadiness that reflects the apprehen-
