 Futures opened higher with the bulls in com plete control. July was up l6 points. August even, September and the other months 5G7 points. The heaviness of the spot demand in Liverpool and the reported willingness of spin ners to make purchases at prevailing prices was the trump card of the bulls and this fea- ture more than anything else frightened shorts into covering Trading was heavy especially during the first part of the day. when wsak bears threw their holdings overheard. Bulls bought heavily and prices throughout the day were well supported At the close July showed net gains of I6 points, August TO- September IA and the other months 7dS points.

 New Orleans, July I5.-The whole Liverpool lfst at tho opening showed a decline of 66l0 points with near months than the distant final closing of that market with tho nearer cnticus showing the greatest strength. closing at about last nights figures, with the late 7 racnths l point lower. Spots were quoted 4 reinis higher. with sales bf 10 900 bales. Ea-iy cables reported that the market abroad fit the influence of the good export demand. adding that spinHers were bare of stocks and will be compelled to buy freely soon: that buyers were plentiful and few sellers for flu Interest large. The New York bear contin- Eent continue their tactics to depress the cot ton market with the hope of weakening spot holders in he South and Liverpool While they have been successful in Liverpool in bring ing about results looked for in this countiy y their efforts have been a dismal failure in trying to weaken the spot markets through the manipulation of the speculative position Their impression evidently that if they sold enough September and later positions at continually lower prices they would then reach selling orders would greatly accumulate. How ever. they overlook the fact that this charac- ter of selling requires continually increase of short interest and when thls short interest shall be bought back the greater sustaining feature win it become. New York advices read: Prominent stock houses say exchange loans have been naaatiated by large financial insti- tutions; thisl kould affect the stock market and approximately cotton" Our market con- attempt to cover the outstanding support in the market will result in quick reaction. Weather reports will therefore be of material influence in shaping prices.

 NEW YORK, July i5.-After the decline of yesterday and this morning prices reacted sharply. It was rather difficult to get very much cotton below 91z for December though the price ran down to 9.46 several times The future of the market the investment de- mand below 9h-cent basis Practically the same. condition existed in October, spinners be- ing aggreesive buyers below 9M cents. This is not difficult to understand Not only is the stock of cotton in the world very small, but the spinners have not purchased much. pre- ferring to close the mills rather than convert cotton into goods at a loss, and in many in stances they have actually sold the stock m hand. This means, of course, that there is go- ing to be the most active demand nave ever for the first of the next crop. Spin ners will have been without cotton so long by the time the movement Is under way in Sep tember and October that every bale will be needed at these prices. It will be remembered that cotton sold in the fields of Texas at 10 cents a pound three years ago and there is no reason why similar conditions should not exist this Fall. Now that prices are going down to a satisfactory basis cannot but believe that there is money in purchase of October and old months beyond every time the market breaks. We will be very much disappointed if October cotton does not get back very much above 10 cents before the expiration of that day. We may have O trying market for the time being. but ultimately the buyer will make money.
