H. & B. BEERS COTTON LETTER.
By Private Wire to c. c. AbercrOmbie
 and COmnanv

and Company.
 New Orleans, La, July 27.-The large stock at New York was used to advan- tage again by shorts at New York. re- port having it that upwards of 3O.OOO bales of August were put In Circulation by parties who bought them back at lower level than at which raey wera issued, but not before they had the desired effect, depressing July and August contracts.
 In the local market the current month suffered in sympathy, all the buyers now caring to acdept the cot ton, notwithstanding the price of the option to be about 10 5-s
 Up to and including yesterday there about 5000 bales of spot cotton and ii Is probable that about 12,000 bales which have been delivered in all.
 It Is well that the public steered clear or the position when such bonn corner, was so generally spoken of two months ago when the market was 100 points higher for the manipulated position. when the old crop will cease to he a factor in the market, as August will he Influenced more or less by arrivals of new crop cotton. the competition of which will have to be submitted toe
 The return of the more normal con dltions has witnessed the taking of more interest in the market by the public. and with the advent of the new season we look for more activity and broader range of values,
 That the developments in the prog ress or the new crop, upon which the trade must depend entirely for its sup ply for next season are attracting at- tentton, was forcibly demonstrate fed this morning when traders Ignored the weakness in summer months ano pouBnt new crop cotton on the strength of the second of a series or preliminary crop reports by The New York Journal of Commerce which pic- tured the outlook in Georgia as being very poor, and its summary of cons ditions in Alabama was less favora ble than looked for.
 Operators were of the opinion as to weather of the past week being rather favorable, less rain and normal temperatures in the belt, which would indicate a favorable chronicle weather and crop report this evening.
 Chances are in favor of bearIsh statistics on spinners' takings for the week also, and the reports by States yet to be made by The Journal of Com merce are expected to be favorable if indeed they do not show improve ment. especially for Mississippi and Texas, but there was an undercurrent of uneasiness among shorts that in- duced some covering. which served to sustain values, the monthly bureau re- port being attended with so much un- certainty.
 Showers for all the cotton States is the weather prediction for tonight and Saturday-further rains being feared.
 Yours truly,

Chicago esrain and Proauce.

Cnicdeo. July x7---ProbaDiilty or greatly increased receipts of wheat here offset today the effect of buiiish for eign anvances and wheat closed steady, final quotations on the September de- livery being precisely the same as yes- terday. Corn was up s-s@1-2. oats unchanged to 7-S lower
 The wheat market was firm. being influenced by foreign news which was favorable to the bulls. The price Of centers showed considerable advance. owing to the additional reports claim ing greater shortage of wheat in Southern Russia as a result of exces- sive rains. Another bullish factor was q decrease in shipments of wheat from Argentina during the week compared with corresponding week last year. The buying early in the day came from in- fluential quarters, several prominent commission houses. but on that side .os mand by local shorts. Toward the noon hour the market weakened on selling by houses, increased acceptance from the country being given as req tie recuperative power was manifest ed late in the day. the market closing steady. September opened 1-S@1-4 higher at 7S 7-S@3-4, to 76 3-4. sold up. to n Is. and then ueclined to 76 1-4. The close was at 76 1-2@5-8- Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to 1o6,7o0 bushels.
