EARLY DEMANOFOR AUGUST
The Late Trading Showed Generally Steady undertone, With Certain Brokers Trading for Lowest
 Wall Street interests.

New York. July 26.-The cotton market opened barely steady at decline of ? to points in response to lower Liverpool cables, continued favorable crop advices, notably monthly report on conditions in Texas and Indian territory published by a southern paper, and the favorable character of the weather map.
 At first there was some demand for August here from a couple of large floor brokers, and that position, following the call was run up to 1922, but the demand from this source was soon filled and the list which during the first few minutes had shown steadiness in some months in the near positions. as a result of cov- ering, eased off to a net decline of about ' to 12 points.
 Later the losses were increased a cou- pie of points or so, when the weekly bu- reau report was published. acknowledging a very favorable showing aside from cer- tain sectional drawbacks. but after mid day the market recovered a few points on covering, and in the late trading show ed a generally steady undertone with cer-  tain brokers believed to be trading for lower Wall street interests. buying on every soft spot. The close was steady, net l to 10 points lower, the largest de- clines being on the near positions. Sales were estimated at 75,0O0 bales.
 Receipts at the ports today, 1925 bales, against 1892 last week, and 416 last year. For the week, 15.0OO bales. against 16, 160 last week and 1876 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans. 9e5 bales, against 377 last year, and at Houston, 67 bales, against = last year.

New Orleans Market.

New Orleans July 26.-The spot cotton market continues quiet. The supply was light. demand limited and prices easier Sales $50 bales; delivered contracts 800 Prices 3-16 lower.
 Futures opened quiet with prices un- changed to points lower Offerings were rather free and not as quickly absorbed as they have been of late. The under otne of the market was hardly as steady as 1t has been. Liverpool was disappoint- ing. as 1t was about points lower than expected at the time of the opening Of the local market Some uneasiness was felt over the weekly report and those traders who were bullishy inclined n- creased this uneasiness by predicting that 1t would be much worse than was general ly expected This caused some little cov- ering by shorts, and steadied prices up. The report was somewhat better than was expected. Bulls made much of the statement contained in 1t that boil weevil had appeared in two parishes in Louisi- ana. but this information was too old 10 influence the market, and the ring was as dull after the reading of the report as 1t was before. In the trading August lost IS points at 1905 and recovered & points at 10.13; October lost 8 points at 93s and recovered to 9.41. The market closed quiet. Net losses were July % points, August 10 and the new crop months to points.

Caldwell G Wards Market Letter.

By Miller & Go.
 New York. July 26.-Judging from the numerous first bales now being reported from widely separated districts in south ern Texas. the new season seems to have opened not only far earlier than last year 1 ut also much earlier than the avera ge. The effect of this rapid reduction of the premium on August since, with even a fair supply of new cotton In that month, there seems no valid reason why spin rers should continue to pay a fancy price for delivery before September The bureau report of August will be based on replies mailed today from cotton belt that the August percentage will approxi- mate if not exceed 990 seems now al- most certain, and such a high condition has heretofore been followed by bumper out-turns except In the sole instance of 1895 and even then the yield was far above the average per acre. The short interest in the market is large, but If the premises on which 1t was put out are cor rect there Is no reason why that circum- stance should be remembered that last fall and winter the long interest was greatest ever known, and yet it is a mat ter of history that prices advanced stead fly in the face of it. Of course the pres ent croo is still far from made, must be gathered which latter operation will re- quire a favorable picking season, but if a choice must be made at present mo- ment, winter months above SEC looks very high.
