COTTON FUTURES.

New York, July 3.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady at a decline of II
points to an advance of 2 points. The
dechnes We're on the near positions
win August showing the greatest
weakness on the lower cables accom-
panied by reports that short notices
were pressing on the market in Liver
pool. This brought out considerable
selling by tailers and very shortly a
decline of 20 points was apparent on
August with the late months showing
comparative steadiness in spite of the
hne weather as a result of uncertain
overcrop prospects and the government
report. Just before midday the mar
ket was rallied slightly from the lowest
py covering, and when the government
report arrived, September was selling
at ll.52c and October at 1036c, while
August had recovered to 12.5Sc When
the governments condition figures
were announced placing the average
for the entire belt at III against TAI
the preceding month there was great
excitement and considerable activity.
The figures were just about an average
or popular opinion and consequently
two factions were disappointed with
the result that early buyers on expec-
tations of a condition around rs
hquidated while those who had
sold in expectation of a report placing
the condition around 80 per cent. COW
cred. The immediate result on prices,
however. was a sharp break which af-
fected chiefly the September and Oc-
tober options. These sold down from
IL to Z points in the first few minutes
10 4
the later positions relatively steady.
Following this there was a rally un-
der fresh bull support and talk of rains
in Texas, but after a partial recovery
the market turned very weak under
rumors that the bulls were unloading
and the market closed barely steady,
net 16 to % points lower. Sales were
$500 bales, as estimated.

H. & n. cos cotton Letter.

New York, July 3.-Our market
opened with sales of August at 12.6Sc
to 12.64c and after selling at, 1850
12.45c ruled at 1250c at 16. The
weakness of the immediate portions in
Liverpool due to large tenders at the
opening of the month of cotton not
ready saleable to spinners brought
about another running decline here on
summer positions. Buyers were few
on those deliveries while on the dis
tant there was an active demand up
to the publication of the bureau re-
port. This report was better than an
ticipated and led to sharp selling. Sep
TENDER was freely supported from New
Orleans receiving the major portion
of the dealing. The local temper OF
the lead is decidedly bearish on the
impression the bulls have bought the
market to a standstill and the crop
has improved since the report was is
sued. In last half hour the market
became weak on Southern selling clos
ing with the trade looking for another
break in Liverpool tomorrow. The
spot market was quiet rs points de-
cline

New Orleans July 3.-The spot cot
ton market was extremely dull, but
prices remain firm. Quotations I'M
changed.
In the futures market it was a bu-
reau day from beginning to end. After
the opening, prices fiuctuated freely.
When the government report was read
and the condition was put at I'll,
against TAI last month and SAT last
year, the bears commenced to ham
mer prices. The long side regarded
the decline with some complacency,
as they believed that the report was
really bullish and would be generally
acknowledged to be so in a few days.
Any improvements in condition that
may have been made have been en-
tirely lost in the damage done by the
heavy rains and cloudbursts in Texas
district since Sunday last. At the
opening July was II points down and
August 10, while the other positions
were at about yesterdays closing fig
ures From the highest point the mar
ket gradually sold off, the list at the
close showing net losses of 10 points
