The Weather in the South Being Re-

Attempt at Bull Speculation
in the Cotton Mar
(By the Associated Press.)

New York, June 30.-The cotton
market opened quiet at an advance of
TO points on the old crop and
of l to points on the new crop
months IN response to steadier cables
than expected and under covering in
huenced. perhaps, by the disappoint-
ing showing made by a private crop
report issued before the opening
which placed the July conditions of
the crop at 1872 per cent. But the
weather over the South being regard
ed as practically ideal, there was no
attempt at bull speculation and soon
after the opening prices which at first
had shown something of an advancing
tendency, turned easier and sold off
to a net loss of to 8 points. The
market ruled quiet and irregular be-
tween that level and closing prices
of the previous day during the bal
ance of the session. a leading Wall
Street operator issued rather a bull
ish circular during the early after
noon, but there was considerable
selling by brokers supposed to repre-
sent this party in the afternoon and
while the offerings were taken in by
other large room shorts, the market
was finally barely steady at the lowest
prices of the session, net decline

the smaller operators had been pret-
ty well evened up for the holidays
earlier in the week and larger inter-
ests as a rule seemed confident enough
of their position to do little or moth
ing during the days session. Wire
houses with Southern connections
were moderate sellers but trading as
q rule was local and professional in
character. A feature of the days
statistics were heavy clearances from
New Orleans but these figures had
no perceptible effect on the} market.
