COTTON Is WEAK IN LATE TRADING. Bears Were Aggressive on the
 Bulge. SHARP BREAK CAME SOON The Close Was Barely Steady at the Lowest Point of the session-A
 New Bull Clique Is
 Rumored.
SHARP BREAK CAME SOON

New York, August 16.-After narrow IT, regularity during the early session the cotton market turned weak in the late trading and closed at a net decline of loq 19 points, The opening was quiet at decline of 1 to points in response to lower cables. Less favorable weather and crop reports caused an early rally, which carried prices to a net advance or to 2 points, but bears became more aggres- sive on the bulge, and the market later f1uctuated around last nights prices until late in the afternoon, when there was sharp break under active bear pressure and liquidation, which seemed to be based on official confirmation of showers in Texas over Sunday.
 The close was barely steady, and at the lowest point of the session. Sales were estimated at 100000 bales. There were ru- mors all day that a new bull clique had been formed under southern leadership, but nothing developed in the market to substantiate such an impression, and the less favorable crop accounts from the eastern belt appeared to be attracting lit tie outside support Southern spot mar kets were generally quiet and unchanged.
 Receipts of cotton at the ports today, 6424, against 92S6 last week and 22S9 last year. or the week, estimated, 55OOO, against 6S,143 last week and 14,0S2 last year Todays receipts at New Orleans 2l55, against PIP last year, and at Hous- ton SSS bales against 1249 last year.

Loveman 6 Co.'s Market Letter.

The monthly report on the condition of the growing crop in Texas and the two territories was published by the Galveston Daily News today, and showed the plant to have made favorable progress during the past thirty days. According to returns Texas improved PA points since last month, the Indian territory gained 5.75 points and Oklahoma be.tered its condi- tion to tbe extent of SOP points; Texas figuring 992 per cent worse than last year. the Indian Territory 6.15 per cent worse, and Oklahoma f.5S per cent better. The improvement in Texas proper, how ever, is insignificant These returns on condition of the crop are to August II. Commenting upon the weather the News stated that for the past month weather In Texas has been favorable nnHl re- gently, 1t now being intensely hot and dry, causing some blight and shedding and arresting fruiting, that the crop is very spotted az to development and fruit age, and has been damaged aeverely by pests. So much for the first two weeks of August it remains to be seen if bal ance of the month proves so favorable for the southwestern crop. Reference to the official government record discloses the fact that something of drouth Is developing in Texas, rainfall in the ex- tensive district of Galveston for the past three weeks amounting to but S7 of an inch. whereas during tho same period one year ago the precipitation for the dis trict Of Galveston amounted to 2.21 inches In the meantime the plant is be- ing exposed to excessive heat, tempera- ture maximum avera ging today 9s for the second consecutive day, the mercury at one station.
