Ware a LeIand's Market letter.

The cotton market has remained largely
professional and to that extent devoid
of interesting or striking developments.
Operations during the early portions of
the week on complaints of needed rain in
portions of Alabama. Louisiana and south
Texas led to an advance above 101a for
new crop months, but on the rise there
was not sufficient general buying to gus
tain prices, and a setback of 20 points
took place during the latter part of the
week.
On the decline towards 10l cents the
same absorption of contracts noted on
the previous decline from these figures
was once more a feature, and the market
rallied.
The course of events show that the cot
ton market at present time. is extremely
narrow, fiuctuating within a range of 20
or 30 points, and apparently it will require
change the general temper of the trade.
As far as the progress of the crop Is
concerned, reports from the major portion
of the cotton belt are extremely favor
able.
The weekly weather report, however,
showed a rather spotted condition In the
states above mentioned, some sections
having too little and others almost too
much moisture.
As long as this continues there will not
be enough confidence on the part of short
sellers at this season of the year to carry
on very much of a decline below the fig
ures recently touched. 1t must not be for
gotten that the cotton crop Is just start
ing and has before 1t three very trying
months.
In view of the large consumption. big
crop will be needed. and this forms the
backbone of the market.

STILL BIG DEARTH OF NEWS

New York, June 15.-speculative liquida-

In the stock market today and forced
prices to q materially lower basis all
around the bear party showed itself alert
and well organized to take full advan-
tage of the vulnerable position of the
market and their vigorous attacks on
prices built up a requirement to cover
stocks which induced occasional rallies.
The trading was strictly within profess
sional limits as the campaign on the
long side has been throughout. The fall
in prices took place with the same dearth
of news to account for depression of
sentiment as was the case yesterday. The
whole movement was clearly Indicative
of the disappointed hopes of the profess
sional movement to advance prices and
to get out with a profit. Stocks which
have been most prominent In the at
tenpts to move prices up are coming in
for their full share of corresponding
prominence on the decline. Reading Is the
notable example and continued its un-
enviable leadership in the melting away
or prices. Ine penalty TO be paid TOR
speculative excess was clearly illustrated
in the days most conspicuous movements.
Rational explanation for the excessive ad-
vances in Reading were long ago afban-
doned and was considered sufficient to
account for them that a wager should be
made by the leader of the speculation in
the stock that the price SHOULD reach
some designated figure by afspecifc date.

buying attracted by such means should
develop a poor holding with the course
of prices going against the profit of the
position. A flrmer tone in money was

ditions Call money was In active demand
owing to the large requirement for the
heavy dividend disbursements which were
made today. These included the 100000
Standard Oil dividend and number of
other dividend payment months calling
for large amounts. Rates for time loans
also advanced appreciably both for short
and long periods. The demand for seven
and eight month loans was called very
strong and scanty supplies were offered.
The rate was 5A per cent strongly bid
and business was done at above that fig
ure. The preliminary estimates of the
weeks currency movement indicated
gain by the banks of something over a
million dollars, which was more than ao-
counted for by the operations with the
su'b-treasury. The movement by express
to the interior and the fact was against
New York, marking a reversal from the
recent tendency and this fact was not
without its effect on speculative sent-
ment Reports of crop damage continued
to have an influence on the stock mar
ket, and to occasion a rising apprehension
of an impairment of the years harvests.
The statement of the May foreign trade
showed the falling off on values of agri-
cultural exports made up with a large
margin in addition by the increase in
value of manufactured exports but the
heavy expansion at the same time in
the value of the imports resulted in a
smaller trade balance in pur favor for
the month than in May of last year. The
excess value of exports this year is $25,-
600, 794 compared with $31, 26S145 for the
preceding May. While the discrepancy is
small the result Is considered important
in view of the large reliance placed by
New York on foreign money markets for
resources to supply the needs of the fall
money market here. Last prices were
generally above the latest but the closing
tone was irregular and rather uncertain.

Loveman g. Co.'S Market Letter.

After an early show of strength the
July position In the local cotton market
weakened, declining as much as 10 points
from the top price of the day before
the downward tendency could be checked.
Prices on October and December were
somewhat easier also, but these months
were relatively strong compared with
July. The big bulls In this market seemed
content simply TO watch on today, and
made no effort to sustain prices either
on July or the other positions. Their mao
tivity was probably due either to the fact
that there was very little spot demand,
or else to a desire to see the short inter-
est in the market increased to such an
extent as TO render manipulation of the
July position both easy and profitable No
rain has yet been reported either priv
ately or officially from south Texas. where
the drouth is already beginning to do Sc
rious damage to the cotton crop In that
portion of the belt. The insight figures
were even more bullish than expected,
the amount brought into sight for the
week being only $4,000 bales compared with
10000 the corresponding week last year.
Next weeks comparison Is even larger
than this weeks, being 11S.000 bales. The
visible supply statement, to be issued late
this afternoon, is generally expected to
show up bearish, so far as spinners' TAX
ings are concerned, but we hardly ex-
pect to see them placed at much under
this week last year when the total TAX
ings were $4,000 bales. Next weeks TAX
fngs will compare with 2lS.OOO last year.

Gilbert G. Claws Market Letter.

Dearth of news from Liverpool indi-
Gated that no developments have occurred
to destroy the prosaicness of that mar
ket. Options were to 3 points higher
and spot sales were good-l00o0 bales at
l point advance.
Early session of our markets was quiet,
but after the noon hour considerable SELL
ing developed in July, attributed to liqui-
dation of the long interest.
The weather map was considered favor
able despite the fact that no rains fell
in Texas. The forecast for tomorrow for
the weather belt seems to indicate that
the weather over Texas is unsettled and
showers are predicted for the northern
portion of that state where they are not
needed.
The visible statement is again expected
to be bulllsh--only 5000 bales in sight for
the week. coupled with decrease In Bonn
bay receipts and heavy increase In Bonn
bay shipments. But the trade pays little
attention to any marked Improvement in
the statistical position of the present CROP
and when the July position Is finally
closed the last vestige of influence. inso-
far as present supplies are concerned, will
have been removed, and the weather alone
will govern the course Of prices.
