ports stating that the movement Of
cotton from remote interior points was
showing some increase. Rains were
reported on the early map in sections
which have been supposed to need
them and more moisture is forecasted
for tomorrow in Alabama and Mis-
sissippi. The only feature at all I'M
favorable from a crop growing stand
point was the prediction for lower
temperatures, which, however, are be-
lieved likely to be only temporary and
do nothing more than check develop
ment in some sections.
The arrival of about $50 bales of cot
ton from Liverpool on yesterdays
steamer excited some attention and
considerable curiosity. Last season, it
may be recalled considerable cotton
was brought here from abroad for de-
livery on contract during the end-sea-
son corners. The present receipts are
said to be of high grade American cot
ton. such as is in very little demand
abroad, but which commands some
what of a premium in the local mar
ket.

Say Yesterdays Weather Conditions
Were Ideal.


New York June est is seldom in
the history of cotton growing that such
a weather map is shown as was shown
this morning. From the location of
rains it looked as though a watering
pot had been held over the belt by an
invisible hand. Rains came just where
they were needed. 1t was really an
ideal map. After the advance of yes
tesday there was nothing to be done
but sell cotton again. The selling car
RED October from 9. CSC to 8. Acc. There
was much weakness, as there was
strength yesterday. From the start. it
was evident that there was no hope
for the market Weather was too
good. Two months of this sort OF thing
and we will raise 100000 bales. The
question is will this sort of thing con-
tinue. There is the problem. One
might as we'll admit that as long as
conditions are perfect. cotton will
gradually work lower. Therefore, cot
ton can be sold on bulges. but care
must be exercised about the weather
AS long as the outlook is o. X, you
cannot bull cotton. Might just as we'll
try to fly. But the first turn of bad
weather will send prices kiting.

over.
New York. June 23.-The cotton mar
ket has been duller to-day than in a
very long while; on o'clock call there
were absolutely no transactions, this
being the first time we have had an
incident of that character in very many
months. Market opened steady the
weather through the belt being favora-
BILE and on cables from abroad, stat
ing that the English spinners have not
increased their purchases. To-mor-
row being July notice day at New Or
leans, and there being some doubt
whether longs will take care of tenders.
pressure quickly resulted. At New
York a prominent room trader sold in
all during the morning about $4,000
bales of new crop months without
causing any marked depression. Tele-
grams from Galveston report contracts
offering for September delivery on a
basis such as to encourage strong
bearish views. Interior advices re-
ported that the recent squirt in demand
for spots was practically over. Out
side buying almost entirely lacking,
nevertheless, the market closed rather
steadier on talk that to-morrows WISH
BILE would be a full document. The
professional interest in the market are
strongly inclined to bear side in view
of very promising condition of growing
crop, but the comparative slowness
with which quotations yield discourage
them from pressing their advantage.
We think the general commission house
short interest in the market is by no
means overwhelmingly large tonight,
and unless we get some adverse crop
reports it is difficult to find anything
on which to predict buying advices.
Liverpool is due to come / to down

tomorrow morning.

The rally in cotton market day before
yesterday failed to hold yesterday for
the futures markets went off at Liver
pool, New York and New Orleans, and,
as a result there was another sag in
trading in all departments. Spots de-
chned at Liverpool and New York and
remained unchanged at New Orleans
and Savannah, but the demand for
them was quiet. and in the local mar
ket sales Of only 10 bales were reported.
In the f. o. 10. business good middling
was officially quoted at 107sc, but there
was little, if any, demand for 1t at
that price, and the interior refused to
concede anything, despite the drop in
options. The receipts were LAP bales,
but all of this was for foreign ship
rnent, not a bale being slated for local
warehouses. The coastwise exports
amounted to 100 bales none was ship
ped to foreign ports.
