cothran & Co.'S Cotton Letter.

By Gilbert & Clay.
 New York, July 1.-The cotton situa- ton Is growing decidedly interesting. A few lynx-eyed operators who were born and bred in the south and can scent crop danger as far away as any one, are now beginning to talk spotted crop. That is, as far as eighteen or twenty important pro- ducing sections of the belt are concerned, where there is actually a drought in pro- gress. and in other parts of the belt there has been extensive moisture.
 A very able operator says this morn- ing: If we have rain we are sure to have too much, where they do not need any. Then there will be a howl. If we don't have rain these places will be all drying up, Then we will have a howl. It looks very much to me as though we could not escape unless water Is to be distributed from a sprinkling pot"
 The outlook seems to Justify very cau- tious opera tions in the future market While the crop is generally regarded as doing well. 1t has had it's period of i'm provement and the next probable change will be one of unfavorable con dtions. For this reason we can't com mend too strongly the purchase of De-

 Under the circumstances such opera tions are likely to return profits even quicker than any one imagines at this distance; 91kc Is a very reasonable price and any unfavorable developments will most certainly bring about an advance of anywhere from 1ke 10 a 1e a pound.
 Everything in the outlook seems favor able and speculation in cotton is likely to be on even a larger scale this season than last

COTTON MARKET
 QUIET AND EASY
Trading of Local Nature With
 Small Demend
DERIVES WEAK UNDERTONE
Cables Poorer Than Expected and In- fluence Prlces-Selling for Short Account Checked by Fear of
 Renewed Manipulation.

New York, July 1.-The cotton market opened easy with prices unchanged to 20 points lower and subsequently, ruled quiet with trading of local nature. and small demand except for moderate selling or ders inspired by the generally favorable character of the weather and crop acc counts. The market also derives weak undertone from a poorer class of cables than looked for. Selling for short ac- count. however was checked by continued fears of renewed manipulation. Towards noon the trading level was to 15 points under the closing of the previous day, with the decline mainly on the near posi- tions.
