Caldwell 6 Wards Market Letter.

By Miller x jCO.
 New Orleans, July 16-Spot cotton was reduced 22 points to 6.50d for middling at Liverpool today and nearby contracts closed at a decline of 3 to 13 points. to 6 points lower than last night. Private cables attributed the easier tendency than expected of the English market to spot sales of past week being over estimated, and to selling of July contracts. Weather conditions were unusually good generally fair over belt with lower temperature in Texas which remained rainless and of- ficial forecast will say flair weather to- night and Sunday" Weekly crop reports of the New York Chronicle Dun's agency and Bradstreets could hardly be. im- proved upon. Worlds visible supply of American. however, showed greater de crease for week than last year, 98,294 which includes loss by fire of 5000 bales at Bremen, total worlds available now standing at SS1, ,669 bales compared with 965.S76 one year ago. Spinners talings of other kinds than American was smaller at 270O0; last year 760O0 this bringing the visible stock to within 5000 of what was held this time twelve months ago, 935 900 vs. 943,000, but as the American public only confined trading in contracts of American growth, the statement, though appearing bearish from a statis- tical point of view, was really a little DuiilSn from the SIdndpOlnl or Speculauon. Local market opened somewhat lower than justified. August, 10.37; October s.33, about 10 and 6 points lower than yester- days closing. Thereafter, market lost another point, but offerings became scare, market gradually working upward on weekend covering by shorts, August selling high as 10.S9; October 9.46, at about which level prices closed During past week spinners of Europe drew on Liver pool for 52000 bales vs. 8, 900 for same
 last year, reducing stock to 430Q0 com pared with 334.000; 292,000 of which is American cotton. Trade conditions in Eng land are gradually growing brighter. which is fully confirmed by resumption of mills once idle with good spot sales. In the dry goods market of America there is a better feeling also, influenced by promising crop outlook in the south and west Barring manipulation in summer months, best to be expected of new crop months is to hold steady.

short interest in new crops 1t is reasona- ble to infer that some long contracts are extant and as the speculative long in tertst is not considered large. the general impression is that the major part is for account of spinners. who will not part with their contracts until the cotton is at hand. An gnquestioned element of strength to the market is establi lhed in this position, lessened somewhat by deliv- cries contemplated by producers who have sold their crops ahead. The question to what extent this po-4cy has been adopt ed by mills, is impossible of determine tion, but when it is considerA that these contracts are scarcely ev-s m<de for de- Iiveries earlier than October an opinion can be formed as to the amount of sus- taining influence to be derived from this source by the knowledge that according to the average of the past ten years about 291a per cent of the total crop is marketed by November 1; 49 per cent December 1 and CT per cent by January 1, and approx imately those proportions of the crop will be available for deliveries Of October, No vember and December contracts on the basis of even a minimum crop this sug- gests an ample supply.
 Wheat.-There was selling early on clear weather and easier cables, but very high temperatures in the northwest start ed shorts to covering and induced consid- erable buying on fears that damage may result from scorching weather. Stronger markets are expected from abroad during the coming week, and with the belief growing that the United States will have very little exportable surplus, 1t started the bull to feel better and sentiment Is more optimistic than ever. The closing was strong and there are possibilities that higher prices will be witnessed
 Corn.-July deliveries very light and while there was selling early on the hot and forcing weather, offerings were well taken, while the strength in wheat start ed shorts covering. July and September are in very strong position, with very little desire shown to bear them.
 Oats-The carlots were a trifie larger but there was good buying from the start, with shorts covering on favorable advices from Central Illinois. where the crop is reported In a poor conditions We look for hipher prices on this cereal.
 Provisions.-Provisions were very dull and about the only feature was selling of lard by Cudahy. The strike situation is unchanged and we look for a quiet market.
 Standardization of bank statement had no appreciable effect on prices, and after its publication the same is charac- teristic of strength, with trading confined to comparatively few stocks, which con tinued up to the close. London was con- siderable buyer of Erie and rumor was in circulation that Northern Securities mat ter might now be compromised, and that settlement would Involve some important advantages for Erie. Rumor Is not new, so far as it affects Erie. but has been retouched to meet existing complications.
 Advance in rubber preferred reflected very satisfactory business conditions, which have prevailed in present trade year. A. c. P was active and an effort was apparently being made to encourage expectations of an advance. Total sales, 219,737.

cothran & Co.'s Market Letter.

Cotton.-Rather heavy selling of near months in Liverpool caused decline or 12 to 13 points in those options and wln- ter months lost 6 points, partly in sympa- thy and partly on account of good crop reports from this side. Spot sales of 6Ov bales were excellent for short day pu. were executed at loss of nearly one-halt cent pound from yesterday's quotatlohs'
 Profit taking by recent short interests and disposition to be free of commit ments over Sunday furnished support ar ter our opening, causing reactions rom the early lower levels su-licient to more than cover the initial loss. and steady tone to be observed to the close Ihe weather map and the forecasts were again satisfactory. although from some positions of Mississippi complaints or excessive rains are numerous. Climate conditions in the entire belt with this exception are such as should enable lils farmers to clear their fields of grass anu improve cultivation generally.

 Futures opened steady and prices were from 5 to b points lower than yesterdays 8 closing. Offerings were fairly large, the wire houses being the principal sellers. A good demand developed soon after the opening and offerings were quickly ab- sorbed. which had the effect of steadying the market and sending the price Of the new crop positions well above the level Of yesterday's closing. Little buying for long account was done. purchases being made chiefly to even up short accounts over Sunday. Some longs wno did not care to carry cotton over the holiday dumped it onto the market, adding to offerings, but not making any appreciable impress sion on prices August was IS coints lower at the opening at 10.S, sold up 10 1o. .e9. and eased off to 10.66 The market closed firm, with net gains on July Of 10 points.

New York, July 16.-The cotton market opened weak at decline of IA points on near and 1@11 points on more distant months in response to very bearish cables which reported a decline of % points on spot cotton and of 6G13 points on futures in the English market. Sentiment here was rendered very bearish by the idea that the bull deal in Liverpool was over, and by excellent weather reports but on the opening decline sellers of yesterday and the previous day covered over for Sunday and the market after the first few minutes of active liquidation during which declines were slightly increased ruling generally quiet and irregular with prices showing comparatively narrow changes.
 Receints at the ports today. S1s bales against sS5 last week and 696 last year. For the week 5000 against 1O,5is last week, and S726 last year. Todays receipts at New Orleans 524 bales against 159 bales last year and at Houston 153 against 80 last year.
