NEW YORK. July 23.-In consequence of the approaching end of the month of July, shorts in the July option in cotton appeared to be de moralized today and the previous high record was broken. The report that 5000 bales of cotton had been bought in Liverpol for ship ment to this country seemed to excite the bears all the more and every available method was used by the shorts in getting under cover. It appeared as If the short interest fin July was larger than had generally been reckoned upon and the New Orleans crowd was said to be in absolute control of all of the available cot ton. July opened at an advance of 30 points, then rose to i3.75. where 1t halted for the moment. The general list was at advance of 6Gll points and there further ad- vances as q result of the nervous buying for the short account Best business was in Au- gust, September and October cotton. though the December delivery was not slow. July attracted most attention, in that the fiuc- tuations fin 1t were wide and resulted in sen sational expressions regarding the position of the bull syndicate. It was stated by some that they had put the price up In hope of un- loading. but had been able to sell only a mod crate quantity at the better prices How ever. there was firm tone to the market UT to the last. though late in the day the market was less active.

Reports that these 1000 were Tor shipment here presumably to be delivered on July contracts only added to the uneasi- ness of nearby shorts, who accepted the state ment as indicating that the outstanding short Interest in July was larger than expected m addition to the higher cables and the ap- preaching maturity of the July contracts the weather map reflected continued hot. dry weather in sections of the belt and for a time The shorts appeared utterly demoralized July which had closed on the preceding night at aS.2o bid was bid for at g. 60 and was not sold until I3. 70 was reached and imme- dfafeiy another sale was reported at 375 or Ae points over the previous high records. In the meantime the balance of the market had also shown great strength, August being forced up to i2.75 with the general lists show Ing net gains of i3G55 points, The attain mand for the time being and realizing eased the market off from to 27 points from the high point with July selling down to 1890. Around midday there another upturn and a partial recovery under renewed covering but in the early afternoon the market again turned very weak under further realizing which ap- peared fo be based on reports of rains in the Territories supposed to be in need of moisture and as the bulls made little efforts to support prices moved rapidly downward.

In the last few minutes cover ing by room shorts helped matters a little and there was a redovery from the lowest of 2G5 points. The market finally was barely steady and net 3G7 points lower on all op- tions except July, which was last sold at i3. 70 and closed at 1890 bid, or net 10 points higher.

NEW YORK. July 23.-December cotton to- day sold at s.S7. while October ran we'll above 10 cents The sees of this cotton market the more one realizes the won derful possibilities in the way of profits to be obtained from purchase of the new crop at such figures have recently obtained This Is while the outlook is all that could be ex- pected following the poor start and the crop may well be considered in better shape than year ago at this time. None the less the needs of the world are such that e19 is too low price for this season of the year. We ton may be in the Spring of next year, for of the yield but until it is known that the crop is not only to be as large as any ever realized in this country, but considerably larger, there will be active a demand for the early marketings will result in just such advances we have had since Tues day. As we' said yesterday the question na- turally presents itself if the market goes up 30 or 40 points in the face of good weather, what will it do in the of untoward devel- opments. Unless this crop Is a bumper crop cotton next year will sell at 1 2 cents a pound. And should the yield turn out under eleven and quarter millions the price likely to be very much higher than this. Going on this certainty, therefore there Is every to buy cotton on slight recessions one is al- most certain to make a profit on such in- vestment. The corner appears to be firm ly fixed ever and this may bring add ed stimulus to the new crop. October is all most certain to sell over io1k cents next Fall. We advise purchases on every break.

Fresh buying shortly after oc- easioned an additional advance of 365 on the new crop months but heavy realizing set in at this period owing to the circulation of fla vorable crop accounts from all sections of the belt, causing a break of 25 points from the top on July. 40 on August. 38 September and iSG20 on the other positions. making the net gain 20 points on July and 40 on August, whereas the new crop months showed a loss of 6G9.
