slow movement of new bales to market and
scarcity of offerings from Texas for Aug
ust and September shipment. Under ord n
airy conditions such sensational political in
formation as was in circulation today
would have had a depressing effect upon
cotton. but securities seem to have been the

Liverpool appears to be much concerned
over the outcome OF the several seizures OF
British bottoms and the sinking of an Eng

Foreigners have lost faith in higher
prices since curtailment has been entered
into by Manchester spinners, which has been
taken DIP by Southern mills, where reduc-
tion of production of 25 per cent will be en-
forced during August and September. The
strike at Fall River is an important factor
in this connection also and the trouble at
Chicago is not helping matters any. Were
II not for the fact that the stocks of old
crop cotton are low to make 1t dan
gerous for traders to oversell themselves,
operators would be offering the market
down on promising prospects of the growing
crop. AS the matter stands. few sellers
are found except for quick turns, which has
made the market a scalping affair around
