Caldwell & WARDS Market Letter.

By II. & B. Beer.
New Orleans. June 27.-Failure Of rain
to materialize over Sunday in the south
Atlantic states had a stimulating in1u-
ence on all markets today. Liverpool
closed s to 10 points higher for futures
and spots there were quoted points up
at I'D for middlines; Sales, 5000 bales.
Manchester's weekly trade review de-
noted more business doing as a result of
the lowering of prices for raw cotton
China taking more of the higher grades
OF cloths and business with India and the
I,evant was reported as expanding. The
turnover in years. however, was said
to be below the average. According TO
advices from Liverpool. English operators
we're taking advantage of existing DIFF
ferences between the foreign and Amer
lean markets. buying here, selling at
Liverpool at about 115 points for Octo-
Der. New Orleans opened steady about
10 points up for July 1912, about points
for new crop months. 8. 45 for October
part of which was lost in early hours on
predictions for showers east of the Mis-
sissippi river, July falling to 10.6S; Octo-
Der to $40
Noon forecast, however. was a continu-
ance of dry weather in the eastern belt.
There was more doing in spots market
closing firm at an advance of y to IL

covering In anticipation of less favor
able crop report tomorrow than what was
published last Tuesday, Texas complain
ing of boil weevil Arkansas and two ter
ritories of too much rain, each Gulf and
south Atlantic states of lack of mois-
ture
Prominent bull operators supported the
market by bidding for the old and new
crop positions with July advancing to
10. 80; October to 9.56. Stocks at American
speculative points are diminishing rapid
ly. New York and New Orleans holding
ago, which will probably be made to fig
ure 100000 less by middle of July by New
Orleans by losing her excess of about
$1,000 when compared with last year,
there having been a good spot demand
for export the past three days.
Weather conditions for showers west
of the Mississippi river fair conditions
for eastern belt, are just the reverse of
necessary requirements, and until there
is a change In the weather conditions
unfavorable reports are likely to continue.
With the closing of Friday, we will have
entered the holiday period and In adj
vance of same, one side or the other will
probably even up to a greater extent than
the other. We are not to lose sight of the
monthly bureau report to be published

probably Indicate crop of about 1900, 600
| bales by showing an average condition of

The opening brought out only a mod
crate number of buying or selling ord
ers. and Immediately after the opening
the market lapsed into waiting attitude.
The undertone was steady and while bulls
did not give the market much of any
support, considerable strength was drawn
from the covering of shorts, many OF
whom displayed anxiety to protect them
selves. This week and next will be
broken up by the holidays while at the
end OF three days of activity following
the close of this weeks trading will come
the June report on conditions by the bu-
reau. Few traders cared to increase their
commitments in view of this. In the
trading July opened at 1863, sold up TO
