 NEW ORLEANS July 3O.-The past week was productive of many developments Ia bor disturbances in the East and West and the almost severing of pleasant relations be tween Russia and Great Britain as a re- suit of the raids upon neutral ships in the Red Sea. The strike of the employees of the packing houses at Chicago has spread to the East with the close of the week.

 NEW YORK, July 30.-The cotton market while starting out with lower prices gradu- ally strengthened until the latter part of the week saw prices well above the lowest point made during the first part of the week Hester's visible supply statement of crop of 1,0oo.000 bales less than at the same period last year gives low estimate of the crop condition. and the general opinion that the Government monthly report is to be is- sued on August 5th would show a much lower condition than had been anticipa ted Then again the short interest in the mark ct al present Is enormous and it is larger now than at any time since the Sully collapse It Is this short interest together with the fears of a possible crop scare that has pre- vented further decline in the price of cot ton futures checked by short selling and has made the bears extremely nervous over their position. Spinners and spot cotton men appear not to be alarmed over their po- sition. but the way they are picking up cot ton around present prices Is obvious that they do not expect prices to go much lower at least for the present anyway. The short interest in the market Is large enough. if a crop scare should happen along, to put the market up 100 points. While crop scare ts not in sight at present. the crucial period is near at hand and any day may bring forth reports of enormous damage by the eIe- ments We advise for the coming week. con servative purchases of cotton for moderate profits.

THE FlNANcIER,s STATEMENT.

NEW YORK. July So.-The Financier this week says:
 The feature of the official statement of the New York associated banks last week was further important increase of $6,- 260,600 in cash, which was expected from the traceable movements of money during the week. Though this increase was less by $1.24S.200 than that which was esti- mated the discrepancy may be accounted for in part by the payment to the treas ury on Friday of s2,S00,000 through the banks on account of Central Pacific Rail road indebtedness to this Government, this payment making an average loss to the banks of about S600.000. The general de posits were increased by 8, 522, 400 and the required reserve was thereby augmented $SS0,600, deducting which sum from the gain in cash above, left s5,3S0,000 as the increase in surplus reserve to s55,9S9,6UO, the highest since July ?, 1898, when the surplus was $62.O13,550 Computed upon the basis of deposits less those of $23353,T00 public funds the surplus now is s6l,s2S,025. Loans were reduced last week by S2,- 51,100; cancellations of syndicate bor- rowings offsetting the amount of new loans to corporations and commission houses. The daily average of bank clearings was s176,O00, 900, or s35.0OO,- 0eo less than in the previous week. Com parisons of loans by individual banks show that eight institutions decreased this item by $s000 900 net Six banks increased cash by 4 millions net.
