The Syrians are ingenious and con-
scienceless in trying to shift the burden OF
their chliren's support upon the public.
They have an uncanny actlteness in scent

by churches: and they will make long jour

At the opening Liverpool cables were decld- edly favorable, telling of wide advances in both spots and futures. The weather map was decidedly favorable. however. and 1t was claimed that this started some short selling in New York and also caused some weak longs to get scared Following upon this was an avalanche of selling orders. It was the opiufon among traders that the bull clique was a heavy seller of September. as 1t was also the general belief that the local bulls were un- loading their holdings in the Liverpool mar ket which caused that market to stasger also.

 NEW ORLEANS. July e.-Early cable ad- vices from Liverpool were in keeping with the ruling of that market at the opening this morning, reading as follows: Expect all ten sers here will now be taken ca-e of, and with Liverpool cheapest market expect both spin ners. and exporters will enter the market coon Any demand will change the present aspect. We have favorable opinion of the mar ket." Opening prices abroad showed an adT vance of l6 points on the near months. with late deliveries Io points up. while spots were quoted "A points higher. Our first response to Liverpool opening quotations recorded an iin- provefnent of from to g points, with the ad- vance in favor of the Summer positions. After the opening. however, selling orders seemed to predominate and the near months, showing the most pressure on account of stop loss or ders principally. It was soon found that there were few buyers with many sellers endeavor- ing to secure profits in sight and in conse- uuence the decline of today. Considering that the crop has to go through the most critical months of July and August 1t Is unreasonable to believe that the growing crop will be more than moderate one. So considering the amount that will be required by merchants. foreign and domestic, to fill the depleted stocks there is no reason why December should be selling at present discount under September, except ing that an unusual amount of selling has been lndulged in in December options. While the cotton market again shows depressed ten- dency we are inclined to believe that any further material decline will probably produce rene wed liberal buying. .''

July e-There was . rela- lively yfym opening to the market for cotton futures today. the hist prices being an ad- vance of 46io points The English market cables were better than expected. while cer- tain press items told of foods in important sections of the Southwest. There was heavy selling movement shortly after the start. Ire mendous lines of cotton were thrown over while the buyers. were few and far between. The market turned irregular and some options be- gan to fall point after point The New Or leans account was credited with liquidation on heavy scale. but private messages from that center failed to reveal any bearishness and also failed to assign any particular reason for the onslaught of the bears. The nearby months showed evidences of support. but the new crop months. particularly September. dropped of sensational. some options declining between 70 and 30 points. At the lower prices there was some support and the market rallied slightly. but throughout the day there was . great deal of uncertainty and nervous ness, which resulted in irregular fluctuations. The movement was moderate and the weekly statistics were subject Of conflicting estimates. The adviees direct from W. P. Brown. the recognized bull leader were bullish in every respect, but there was an inclination to doubt his statement that not the least manipulation was figuring in the movement of the market.
