eIbert 6 cIay,s Market Letter.

Adviees from Liverpool were more la vorable than has recently been the case, and options on the close recorded gain of points. while spot sales maintained the average recently established, namely, 5000 bales at a loss of points,
 Price changes In the local market were unimportant, but the tendency was up- ward in anticipation of a bullish weather report for the week, which, however, be- ing about as expected, failed to Influence market prices. Even the absence of rain in the Atlantics. according to today's map. likewise failed to cause any bear activity. This failure of the market to respond to these vital influences is primarily due to the exceedingly small proportions to which outside interests have fallen.
 Crop accounts heretofore nave been, as a rule, very hattering, but from some To- ealities reports are now being received denoting less confidence. results of an ex- cess of moisture in some sections and the renewal of boil weevil activity in west ern localities constituting the complaints.
 The crops critical period Is at hand, and the closest scrutiny of it's progress will be observed. An increase of interest is also impending as the new cotton makes it's appearance and we are inclined to look for a corresponding enlargement of speculative activity in the near future.

LETHARGY SHOWN IN STOCK MARKET Complete StagnatiOn Prevailed tor Long Intervals POOR AUGURY FOR FUTURE Even the Appearance of the Govern ment Crop Report Failed En-
 tirely to Revive the
 Market.
 
POOR AUGURY FOR FUTURE

New York, July 10-The stock market lapsed dnto a condition of extreme lethargy today the shrinl1age from yes terday's volume being in about the pro portion of yesterdays shrnlpage from last weeks average. Complete stagnation prevailed for long intervals in the trad ing. Transactions up to noon, which is the. period in which most of day s business Is usually done, were less than 150,00O shares. Traders gave up attempts to contest the dullness, and found no profit in insignificant interchanges amongst themselves. There was some eff fort to attribute the unwillingness to trade to the desire to await the appear ance of the government crop report. But the somnolent state of the market was a poor auguIy of amy coming activity.
 The actual appearance of the report failed entirely to revive the market al- though its showing was fully up to an- tlcdpations, which had been very san guine. Yesterdays crop of rumors of railroad loans secured in Paris were pret- ty conclusively disposed of by denials from various centers.
 That there have been negotiations in progress by some of the American rail- roads to secure loans in Paris, however, admits of little doubt from the sources of yesterdays reports on the subject. Much attention was attracted by the ab- stract sent out from Washington of the condition of national banks as of June IS and its striking showing of the continued demand for credits. Compared with the previous call on April 6, there has been an dncreas of ST, 405, ,752 in individual de- posits accompanying an expansion of $3O,- 73S, ,737 in cash reserves with a growth in the loan item in the same time of $65, ,713 380, but compared with May 29 of last year. the growth of $272, 215, 14S fin in- diyidual deposits is parallel with the heavy increase of $S07, ,719, 75O in the loan item, while the cash reserves are but $1,96S, $50 greater than they were in the corresponding period of last year.
 The New York banks today began the return of government deposits, which are called for to the extent of $l000O,O00 be- ginning today. The money market was unaffected, owing to the extreme stagna- ton of the stock market demand. One

MORE ACTIVE DAY IN COTTON MARKET Close Was Firm at Good Ad-
 vance SALES WERE 150,0O0 BALES Weekly Report of Weather Bureau Was Without Much Influence, Be-
 ing Followed By Some
 Slight lrregularity.
 
SALES WERE 15O,OOO BALES

New York, July 10.-The cotton market was more active today and ruled frmer on covering of shorts and a little more active buying for long account. The close was firm at a net advance of 6 to 12 points. Sales for the day were estimated at 100000 bales
 The opening was steady at a decline of 1 point to an advance of 1 point, which was about in line with cables. Trading was quiet at the start and shortly after the call it looked as though some of the local professionals were trying to break the market on the favorable daily weather re- ports. Their offerings were promptly ab- scrbed however, and the market during the recent narrowness of fluctuations. The weekly report of the weather bureau was without influence. being followed by some slight irregularity and the high point of the session was reached in the late trad ing, with the close within a point or two of the top Some further reports of less promising prospects for the crop in the eastern belt were received, but the bulk of private crop advices remain favorable and the buying movement send to be basd more upon the recent steadiness of the market in the face of bearish condi- tons and the apprehension of crop deteri- oration than upon any change in the sit uation.
 Receipts at the ports today, 56SO; 6o21 last week and 21,501 last year. For the week. 25.OOO bales, against 25,572 last week and s5, 7O3 last year.
 Today's receipts at New Orleans. 2SS2 bales, against 1769 last year. and at Hous- ton, 691 bales, against 42sf last year.

Ware 6 LeIand's Market Letter.

The weekly report was in practically all respects favorable. There has been much needed in Texas, and while some sections of the Atlantic states show too much rain, there Is warm, clear weather there now, and the plant is in good con- dition. There was nothing really unfavor- able in the report. There was practically no section talking of damage.
 When compared with the usual weekly at this season of the year. the report was exceedingly favorable.
 But the market failed to move in either direction The short selling early in the day had been sufficiently extensive to lead professionals to cover on the advance, and this started an advance of several points. A large amount of cotton was taken from the market early and when the buying started there was little cotton for sale.
 It took an advance of about or points to bring out any cotton, and this led to absence of any marked desire to sell.
 As far as crop news went reports were generally all that could be desired.
 Until some untoward development Is seen, the market is likely to continue mar row. There is little pressure at the mo- ment.
