 NEW ORLEANS, July l7-The volume of trading today was the smallest of any session within the recent past and a much needed and welcome relief. The Liverpool spot department was quite encouraging with liberal sales at 10 points advance. The con tract market however. did not participate and was by many considered disappointing. Early in the day our market developed a sagging tendency on anticipations of a beGrish visible and favorable Chronicle. gradually drifting downward until the close. effort was made at times to hasten the decline. but the market refused to yield except at it's own slow pace. The recent decline has caused the complete withdrawal of outside support 'ahd it now seems probablA' that these interests Will remain idle for a time unless crop prospects should take unfavorable turn, in which event a rapid yaeyancei would .nlateralize. as there are no reserve supplies to fall back upon and whatever cotton Is consumed next season must come out of the growing crop For the mo- ment however, manipulation and good weather conditions are the ruling forces. The sue cess of the bull movement which now seems assured may stimulate the later positions but while the crop continues to improve We ad- wise conservative trading

 NEW YORK. July I7.-The cotton market this morning opened dull with August contracts 2l points lower. September was points low er and the near positions log points higher Cables were without inducement to the local crowd to go on with great enthusiasm on either side of the market The weather situation was good for the crop; high temperatures were the rule over the entire belt, and the forecast was for showers in most sections where they would prove beneficial. Sentiment was somewhat mixed and more favorable opening for the market was entertained for new crop months The main point is when Is cotton going to move freely. No new cotton of consequence Is expected to reach the market for some weeks hence the impossibility of forcing prices down at this time, Cables were 2G5 noints lower today. hut the continued demand for spot cotton in thatI market was an encourage ing sign. Not much rain has been reported in western half of the belt of late and 1t would not be surprising to hear complaints on this account before a great while. Prices locally were weak most of the morning and business was of small volume, Manchester was dull.
