 The effect of the report upon the when indicative features were digest ed. July having sold off to lo6s and october down to lo;is' and middling
 Meanwhile weather conditions have been unusually good. only few To- calities complaining of want of rain notably in South Texas and in south indicate that the condition of the grow ing crop had assumed higher state of cultivation and perfection than was re- ported for the 25th of May.
 The firmness of the local spot mar ket. however. overshadowed favorable crop accounts.
 Locally spot values In early part of week were relatively cheap compared with level of other southern spot mar kets. which discount attracted buying orders, especially from continental Eu- rope.
 The demand being for the better grades, the supply of which is limited, developed a firm undertone for actual suited in a reaction. July closing to- day 11.05. October at 10.S5 compared with 10.77 and 1922 respectively this day one week ago.
 Rumors of a pending squeeze in the July position have gained currency again this week, but it Is probable that such reports are circulated for effect as there is not much danger of success ful manipulation. a point we have made much of during the past few months
 The market is in a position to work one way or the other, and while good crop accounts have not had the custo- mary effect upon values, 1t Is not at all unlikely to witness revulsion in sentiment should favorably crop wealth CT continue to be the order of the day as the storing up of such a feeling would only be more pronounced at some future date when an official re- port on condition of the crop would be made. -, ,,-, CT than this time one year ago by about 200 points and the visible supply is only 282, 900 bales of American smaller than at that time, 2.15S000 against ? :, 10000 and the noint to be considered Is that the South is cultivating a much larger acreage and under more favora- ble conditions than last year.
