Gilbert & cIay's Market Letter.

Opening prices in Liverpool were about
as expected but later improved con-
siderably on the fear that the continued
heavy rains throughout the cotton belt
would cause some damage. options finally
closing to points higher Spot sales
aggregated GOO bales at an advance Of
2 points.
The market was exceeding quiet, but
steal the trading being almost entirely
confined to the scalping element. shorts
evinced some uneasiness owing to the ru-
NOR that Miss Giles would publish a
very bullish report. and their buying
caused an Improvement which was more
or less maintained throughout the day.
Reports were likewise circulated to the
effect that boil weevils were doing con-
siderable damage in southern Texas but
both from eye witnesses recently returned
and also from private and reliable sources
OF information in Texas these reports
were belittled and set aside as unim-
portant The weather still remains unset
tied with rains fairly general, but as a
rule light in character and for the most
part yesterday precipitations occurred IN
the Mississippi valley both Texas ana tine
Atlantic states experiencing but little
moisture, and that of the latter occurring
along the coast.

vulnerable position when the liquidation
began to manifest itself in the market
and their forced selling induced much of
the weakness of stocks. But the contrast
suggested in money conditions in the two
periods is apparent rather than real The
resumption today of a strong demand for
loans carrying over the end of the year
was the truest index of the money situa-
ton, lenders being indlsposed to place
money for that length of time, and are
keeping funds in hand or in day-to-day
need in order to conduee to the call loan
market. Banks have made apparently a
small gain In cash on the week. none of
the accepted estimates placing the figure
at over a million dollars. Rates for for
eign exchange were lower, discounts
yielding in London, and sterling exchange
rose In Paris. all these movements being
calculated to facilitate a response to a
New York demand for gold.
Secretary Shaws continued presence in
the city kept the governments bonding
and deposit operations in attention, and
seemed to induce feeling of confidence
derive some advantage from the conduct
of these operations. In this connection 1t
is to be noted that Mondays subscrip-
lions are payable on a. 40 per cent INSTALL
ment of the $27500,000 of Baltimore and

Liverpool showed decided strength to-
day and there We're reports that consld-
cradle new business has been put through
with spinners for October November
shipment. The prediction for more rains
today and tomorrow throughout the At
lantic district created nervousness among
shorts and assisted to advance the mar
ket 10 points from the low. Half the gain,
however, was lost when the detailed re-
port from Georgia for the past week,
showing, to the surprise of every one,
that some sections in that state were
actually complaining of drouth while
others spoke OF the recent rains as having
been beneficial. This unexpected news
prompted a good many early buyers TO
sell out. Still there is a steady under
tone which may lead to further advance.
our market is unusually low when COM
pared with Liverpool so that European
buyers are attracted here rather than to
the former market. The weekend figures
all promise to be bullish, especially in
the matter of visible supply where a
much larger decrease Is looked for than
during the same period last year. Liver
pool is due point lower tomorrow.

NO NEWS DEVELOPMENT
Most of the Demand During the Day
Was Attributed to the Pro-
fesslonal Short
Interest.

New York, July 13-An extremely un-
ertain state of speculative sentiment de-
Feloped in the stock market today, after
PRICES had yielded sharply under a con-
inuance of the selling in evidence yes
erday, and then recovered with some
emblance of strength. There was no i'm
crtant news development to account for
The decrease in the selling pressure. Most
BIZ the demand was attributed to the pro-
|essional short interest.
& The shrinkage in the volume of the mar
tet was an accurate index of the effect
|pon demand of the recovery in prices.
The lack of good news of a striking char
ecter to account for the recovery was the
<,ccasion for pointing out contrast with the
recent market when any such news has
becme known. Every such occasion for
Bome time past has been taken advan-
tage of to market stocks
Selling of this character was not per-
'eeptible today, and the professional bears
apparently lacked courage to attack val
hes in the absence of this liquidation.
The extent of the recovery was not suf-
*ncient to force bear accounts to cover,
Except of the light description. The in
*tense dullness of the demand which de-
sveloped on the recovery did not argue a
feeling of great solicitude on the part of
&the bears of larger calibre. whose out

Preached very large dimensions. Some

or tomorrow. and the fact that 1t has
been raining at a number of points this
morning, which appear on the government
weather chart, probabilities are that the
map will make an unfaYorable appear
anee tomorrow by which time, however,
clearing weather might set in, the gate
way for such changes being via the north
western portion of the belt where weather
was generally clear and warm today.
Nevertheless. 1t viii require the best of
weather conditions to offset the many
complaints that can be made at this
period Of the year, and while 1t is prob
able that the market would sell off on
the return of dry weather, traders real
lie that this is the critical period of the
year, and that no great pressure can be
brought to bear on values until the coun-
try begins offering new crop cotton or
until movement of new crop to market Is
we'll underway.

Ware g. LeIand's Market Letter.

For the first time this season, there
has been a buying movement in cotton
on the shading of reports from the At
lantic states due to excess of moisture.
1t will be recalled that the absence OF
rain in Texas the latter part or June,
caused some uneasiness but this did not
lead to general buying.
AT that time, 1t was the fear OF an
senee of rain for a protracted period
rather than the actual damage that
started some buying. But the advance this
week has been due to actual reports OF
the crop being hurt by rain and grass,
Under these conditions an over EXTENDED
short interest was inclined to cover snort
cotton and the absence of selling led to a
rise of about 20 points.
The market was not characterized by
heavy trading at any time and cottoh
seemed to be for sale on the advance.
Reports from the south were mixed ana
as some claimed the crop had deterlorated'
the desire to buy proved greater than
the desire to sell. AS far as the crop stu
alton goes, there has been no radical
change The next report will compare
with a condition of over 80 In the big
crop wear.
