Loveman 6 Co.'s Market Letter.


 New Orleans August 1s-Market main- tained steady undertone today, notwith- standing Liverpool to be slightly easier than expected in early hours, and a free movement of new cotton at primary points in Texas and at Galveston. The sustaining features were expectations for an unfavorable weekly Chronicle crop re- port this evening and report to the ef- feet that the boil weevil has appeared in Little river and Hampstead counties in southwestern part of Arkansas. Re- ceipts of new crop cotton as yet have had no effect on values, the more unfa- yorable crop reports from the belt gen. erally and claims of serious damage In Texas by weevils and boil worms receiv- ing more attention and consideration. Ar rivals for week, 30 inland towns. show total of 15,S44 bales compared with 1908 bales last year; for the day at all ports, SSS1 vs. 25S; since last Friday, l4,03s vs. 1914 Liberal receipts are expected next week, tomorrow Galveston looking for TOO to 1000 Vs. none one year ago; Houston, 100 to 2000 compared with bales cor responding day last year. Texas is of fering more freely of spot cotton lately and other gulf states will sell for delivery first half of September. Prices are hold ing steady, however, but a reduction of ssc in value of new cotton in Georgia Is something of a forerunner of what is likely to take place when movement to market becomes heavier. Manchester is said to be doing less business than re- gently, due, it Is said, to unfayorabe crop accounts from India. Sales of actual cotton in the English market would tend to confirm such statement concerning conditions in the manufacturing districts of England; sales today. 1000, but at an advance of 10 points to 612d for midding. Exports from all United States ports have not been large as for same week one year ago. 41S0 vs. 6059 and there Is no very urgent demand for August ship ments and for early September sailings, freight brokers not having much to do in the way of making engagements. The weather conditions were favorable today, not much rain to report in belt, but fore cast and map indications favorable for showers west of the Mississippi river, rains for the Central and eastern dis trlcts. We have had plenty rain for cotton during July and August, but not any more than in a eleven and a quarter crop year of 1898. in which year condition of crop deteriorated 11.4 per cent, from 91.2 in August to 79.8 in September, greater decline than what Is likely to be reported next month. Spots closed steady, unchanged; sales, 400; to arrive 100; spots, 10M.

Lelshman e co.s Cotton Letter.

The cotton market today was practical ly repetition of the market yesterday with dulness the chief feature. Although Liverpool sent lower cables our market opened steady. There was covering of shorts owing to fear of heavy rains in Kansas would cross the line and extend down into the cotton belt and damage the plant. Warm weather is needed throughout the belt at present and seri- ous rainfall would undoubtedly do large damage to the crop
 The indications for scattered showers today and tomorrow over the eastern section of the belt did much to steady the market and induce short covering.
 Texas reported some activity among the boil weevil but these reports were not taken seriously.
 The dealings throughout the session was wholly professional, no evidence of any outside demand being detected. There Is no demand from spinners and as long as the strike continues and the dry goods trade continues poor there is not likeley to be any until the situation clears itself and the movements of crop become more free With large movement and cor responding reduction in the price of cot ton futures. spinners may be induced to enter the market, but not until the price of cotton reaches point where 1t will be in proportion to law and supply demand can be there any likelihood of their talk ing cotton in large enough quantities to offset the market price of cotton materi- ally.
