high honors in European and American

stations can be secured at reasonable

the thoroughbred, standard bred and
Morgan mares, together with, in som&
sections, a large number Of mares OF
good blood but intraced lineage, which
by virtue OF their conformation, spirit
and action might proftably be util-
lied in this remunerative work. The
choice Of breeds is not here discussed.
but all breeds are at hand and avail
able in their best estate-French, Ger

It must always be remembered that
In the coach or carriage horse, from

abundant. With this must 60 the ac-

action and with It a common. low

formed into a nag at best selling for a
much less price than he would have
brought had he possessed the right for

Another point for consideration Is the
| fact that the experience OF the most
successful breeders of these horses is
that the use of great lubberly, over
grown horses on the draft horse or

raggedness and roominess may be ac-
| cepted in her IL she Is to be mated to

Just as shorts would nave it. however. generous and well dls- tributed beneficial general rains occurred m the belt over night, and instead or the market improving on the increased spot demand in the English market, val ues sold off 2S points from the highest or the day for Jnly-S.Ss to s.60-and 3 points off on October-S.72 to s. .49. The more favorable crop weather predominat- ing In an influential way. There was not a district in the belt but that received it's quota Of moisture, but Texas where rains were needed more than any other section, received the lions share The general av- craze for the Galveston district of about thirty-five stations figured .Ss of an inch. Longs were the principal sellers on the decline. At around $50 for October there was evidence of investment buying, con- servative operators entering the market with the object of averaging up should it become necessary in event of the mar ket working lower. The quick reaction from the low level of the day truly illus trates the sensitiveness of the market. for had the rains not occurred last night a substantial advance would have been the story of the days trading instead of the tale of a sharp decline,

COTTON MARKET IS GENERALLY EASIER Final Prices Show Small Net
 Loss COVERING AT THE START Market Gradually Yielded and Be- came Quite Weak and Excited Shortly After Midday, When
 Bulls Began to Unload.
COVERING AT THE START

New ork, June H.-The cotton again was irregular today. but ruled generally easier in the late trading, with nnal prices, showing a net loss of to lO points. The opening was firm at an ad- vance of to points on firmer Liver pol cables thaD looked for, particularly as to spot cotton, which was points lower, but in excellent demand, sales being 12,OO0 bales. There was active GOV ering at the start in response to this showing, but there was also a good deal of selling by smaller longs taking proflts' while bear pressure was also encouraged by good weather over the belt, improving news from the new crop and reports claiming an easier situation in southern yielded and became quite weak and ex- cited shortly after midday, when it was reported that leading bulls were unload ing with July selling at s.s5 and October at S.56 or a net decline of about 12 to 15 points.
 Room shorts oversold on the decline and covering was active toward the close, which was steady at a slight recovery to lowest Sales of futures were estimated at 900. According to official reports south ern spot markets were generally un- changed to lsc lower Receipts at ports to- day 12104 bales, and 2220 last year For the week, estimated. 50,000 bales, against 59, ,976 last week and 14,374 last year.

Ware & Leland's Market Letter.

The market broke rather readily today when October opened at S.7b. and then sold down to s55 without giving holders a chance to get rid of very much cot ton.
 It was a bearmarket from appearances with longs doing everything in their pow CT to stem the decline. and meeting with poor success. When holders bought 1t was easy to put ID prices, but the mo- ment they tried to sell the market broke away from them and declined In haste. Below S.60 there was some buying of cotton sold over sA, but for the most part sentiment was unsettled and traders were not inclined to buy as readily as they did early in the week.
 The weather could not have been im- proved so far as the outlook for cotton went. Rains where needed in Texas and the crop is doing finely,
 It will be hard to bull cotton under these conditions. and for this reason we want to see a further break before buy ing.
 The market has had a break of 35 points and on another break there may be a chance for a quick profit on the buying side.
 In the main. however. the crop outlook is too good to bull cotton until we have a general cleaning out of the long inter- est at higher prices.

New Orleans, June 2l.-Spot cotton was quiet and weak. Sales 300 bales; quota tions reduced 1-6c.

July opened at s.s7, sold down to s60, and finally recovered to a.70. October opened points up at S.70. a gain of points, declined to $40. and finally advanced to s.56. On top of the bearish manipulation in American rings came bullish advices from Liverpool The general opinion there was that the market would go much higher as spinners were calling freely and the continent buying The market closed steady with net losses of to F points.
