LONGS GETTING OUT;
BEARS GOING SHORT

New Orleans, Aug. 13.-The spot cot
ton market was dull and easy. Flu
lures opened quiet with prices 2 to 5
points lower than yesterdays closing
figures. Liverpool was lower and dis
appointing, although private cables re-
ported that spinners were taking more
cotton and resumption of full time was
expected. Selling in the local market
was free after the opening and fairly
active for the half holiday.
1t was evident that some longs were
getting out, and that some few bears
were going short over Sunday, in the
expectation of continued favorable
weather The general opinion is that
few days of good weather will make
up for a great deal of the damage that
the rains have done.
In the trading September lost points
in the opening at 8. CSC, and finally sold
down to 9.63c. The market closed
steady. Net losses, August 4 points,
and the other positions 6 to z.

HAYWARD. WICK & co.'s
Daily Cotton Letter From New
York.

New York, Aug. 1S.-The bulls evil
IDENTIFY started out to support the mar
ket this morning. thinking that the
room was short by balance, and
would be forced to cover at a loss for
over Sunday. But they were soon dis
couraged, for Houston receipts as es-
timated for Monday were too heavy for
their liking and attracted pretty fair
selling from the South, so that prices
after opening steady broke TO a net loss
of about points. Later there was n
slight rally as room shorts took profits
instead of losses, but the market had
an easy undertone, and it was evident
that general sentiment had confidence
in the bear side of the proposition. OF
course receipts of from 1000 To $500
bales at Houston are not large enough
TO have anything but a sentimental eff
feet and from present indications we
hardly expect the movement to be
heavy enough TO become an actual fac
tor in the market for couple of weeks
TO come We do not think the bull
clique has marketed all its holdings
by any means. but we do believe that
the weaker short interest has been
eliminated and that the market is in a
position more favorable to expectations
of moderate decline.

year. This means the new crop is
moving in force now and we VIII soon
have a volume of receipts that will be
as important a factor as the question
of weather. The market broke TO
3 points on the big receipts for this
time of year and then recovered, but
for the first time this season the trade
had something to talk about. Each
day now we will talk of Houston re-
ceipts. As far as weather went there
were two sides TO the question. Rains
were again reported in some sections
and more predicted, But, none the
less, the weather map appeared to De
a clearing one as far as the areas
of low and high pressure goes, and the
weather man sticks to his belief that
the outcome will show clearing con-
ditions If this prove to be the case
with good weather and large receipts
it will be hard to hold the market.
On any decline short cotton can be
covered. Tuesdays report will be
rather bad doubtless, and the market
may turn up again.

were covered with filigree.
Their names were very pretty, for
they We're taken from flowers and
trees. These dancers belonged to the
demi-monde to Korea. At first they
entered in pairs, went through va
rious movements, and each crowned
her partner with flowers. Then a large
screen was opened in the room, and
a dancer took her place on either side
of it. Near the top of the screen a
rather large hole had been made,
through which a dancer had to throw
a flower to be caught by her partner
on the other side. There were fixed
rules for this pastime; if the thrower
missed the hole but could pick up the
flower before it touched the ground
then she could begin again, and go
on until she managed to throw it
through. When she had done that a
flower was stuck in her hair, but she
at once pulled it out to present it to
one of the audience. If the flower falls
to the ground, then the thrower has to
pay a penalty.
This lively game was followed by a
pantomime, which represented a fam
lily squabble between man, his wife,
and her friend. The evening came to
an end with dancing and singing by
the soldiers of the Ping-Yang Regi-
ment. To their bravery in the war be-
tween Japan and China, these soldiers
owe the permission to wear Korean
national costume, that is, the national
hat and the broad, white robe instead
of the cap, trousers and shoes that are
worn by European soldiers. In this
regiment certain musical traditions are
kept up, and these traditions give the
soldiers the honor of being invited to
great court ceremonies. Eight soldiers
danced to an accompaniment of a
chorus and of tambourines, while
others gave some scenes in burlesque
of rather free nature. At midnight
we took our leave.

DEMERE a HAMMOND's
Daily Cotton Letter From New
York.

Daily Cotton Letter From New
York.
New York, Aug. 13.-A week of uni
has given rise to a feeling of uncertain
ty over the realization of previous
brilliant crop prospects. From Texas
particularly come complaints of Sc
rious damage, not only from the boil
weevil, but also from the boil worm,
whose ravages are said to cover all
the central and northern portions of
that state. Before the advent of the
weevil it was an axiom in Texas
that plenty of rain makes plenty of
cotton" but 1t now seems that show
ers at this season of the year in the
infested districts increase the activity
of the weevil, and are said in many
places, to be destroying forms and
young bolls as fast as they appear,
putting an end to all further produc-
tion by the plants attacked. The dam
age from this source may or may not
be serious. depending largely on the
duration of present showery weather,
but complaints are so persistent and
so definite from many sources that
they command attention and warn us
against being over sanguine at this
early date. 1t will be remembered that
the shortage IN Texas really caused
the short crop of the past season. The
new crop has hardly begun to move
yet, and receipts for this, the second
week in August, are actually less than
for the first week, something never
known before i'm the history of cotton.
Should 1t turn out that more has been
sold than can possibly be picked, a
squeeze in spot cotton may result
throughout the South in the last days
of August. This. of course, would
only be temporary. but might serve
as an object lesson to those who have
been selling so freely for early Sep
TENDER shipments, and might prevent
exporters from holding off when re-
ceipts begin to move freely.

The expected movement of the new
crop has now become a factor in the
cotton market and it was responsible
yesterday. more than any other fac
tor in causing the prices of the futures
lists to go off at the New York mar
ket. Good weather in the belt now
means that there will be heavy move
nent of cotton to many ports and that,
as consequence prices are hardly like
ly to maintain their present level.
Some attention is given to the fact,
however, that the movement of new
cotton was less during the second week
OF marketing the new crop than it was
during the first week.
An all-round decline marked the
close of the futures markets yesterday,
Liverpool closing to 4 points down,
