marked contrast to that lately prevailing

The liberal response by Liverpool to
the decline in the American markets yes
terday, and an ideal weather map, were
responsible for the loss in values on OPEN
Ing A further decline was occasioned
through the liquidation of a small long
interest, bought in anticipation of re-
action, aided by activity on the part of
the bears. In fact about the only sup
port furnished the market. was through
the medium of shorts covering.
If a large short interest menaced the
market, 1t would appear logical in the
natural course of events. to expect
somewhat material reaction from pres
ent prices pending the government re-
port in the early part Of next month,
but the short interest II existing in
volume, manifests little or no uneasiness,
hence the opinion generally prevails that.
with favorable circumstances, market
prices will gradually drift to lower levels.
And traders anticipate that the annaul
report of our exchange, which Will prob
ably be available upon the opening of
business on September will in the fig
ures of supplies constitute another IN
centive for selling.

Lovemen & Co.'s Market Letter.

The same forces which lifted prices 80
points few days ago semes to have be-
come as aggressive on the short side as
they were when advocating higher prices
The only difference is that there Is no
advertisement of their intentions.
Yesterdays decline here was fully re-
fected at the opening in Liverpool, but
the weakness did not stop this, but con-
tinued until the close. which was at the
lowest prices of the day without any
rally. New low levels were established
on all months here January touched 8
cents, but. as is usual, there was consid-
cradle demand at the even figures and
this served to check the decline. In the
late afternoon there was a sudden rally
at the expense of room traders, who had
all gone short in the expectation that
prices would close at the bottom. This
rally of TO points means nothing In the
course of the market. but 1t served to
run in the shorts and lift final prices
only points lower than yesterday. Later
news from the sections which sent in
such alarming complaints 3 few DAYS ago
Is reassuring.

Ware & LeIand's Market Letter.

Ware & LeIand's Market Letter.
Cotton was duh and Its undertone was
easy today. Sentiment was again strong
" bearish and the nearness of the holt
days was the one thing that kept bears
from using a great deal of pressure.
Nearly all futures were bearish and s
cent cotton was freely predicted. Many
operators protested belief IN cent cot
ton. but 1t is safe to say that the gen.
eral run of operators whose opinion Is
worth anything, do not believe that the
price can be driven below 7 cents.
Taking the situation of the staple and
the temper of the trade into consider
alton nothing short of some sort OF a
disaster to the crop can prevent prices
from being driven at least a cent a
pound lower. 1t is needless to say that
the bulls, or the few bulls left are pes
simistic enough to pray for an early frost
for an early freeze appears to be their
only salvation. Liverpool made a full
response to the decline on this side yes
terday which was surprising when the
recent bullishness of that market and
the fact that today is the regular boom
day there are taken into consideration.
Only 1000 bales of spots were sold,
which was as much of a bearish argu-
ment as was the decline in futures. The
weather map could hardly have been
better.

Abercromble & Co.'s Market Letter.

The weakness which developed in the
market yesterday was more pronounced
today, weather having been more favor
able. Normal temperatures. II anything,
too low, In all districts of the belt, the
general average maximum of which was
So degrees, and there was no rain except
in the South Atlantic states, especially in
Georgia, where some heavy rains were
reported. Liverpool seemed to have turned
turtle with American markets, and was as
bad, IL not worse than generally looked
for, futures there closing at a loss of
10 to IA points, spots Is points down on
small sales of 1000 bales, mddling, $40.
The state reports of the Journal of Com
MERGE on Louisiana and Arkansas were
more favorable than looked for, and longs
are now experiencing the same disap-
pointment as did shorts when results of
the summary of the South Atlantic states
were published a few days ago. The
threatened disruption in the ranks of
traders so noticeable a few days ago APP
pears to have been amicably adjusted
and sentiment once divided. is now as
bearish as before the hot wave struck the
gulf states
