 Futures opened steady, unchanged to one point above the close of yesterday, which was about as due on the cables The fea- ture of today's future market was the slump in the July position. which opened ct 1O.7s and closed at 10 40, 3s points down.
 The slump was attributed to the desires of small bulls to get out of the way of &C., tual cotton. News from the spot market was not encouraging to holders of July, who did not care to accept actual cotton for their contracts The decline on the part of the July option had it's effect on the other options. in which there was a fairly steady decline throughout the day. At the close, the October, December and January optiong were ten points below the close of yesterday.

 WEATHER REPORTS.
Secretary Slater Finds Government Therm0meteR in Sun and yvfll Write Section DsreetoR-@. Complaint About Heat
 Repu&aRfon.
Advertiser Bureau,

Advertiser Bureau,
 Selma, July 2S.
 Why Selma had been given the rep- utation as being the hottest place in the State was carefully inveatigated by Secretary J. T. Slater of the Com merclal and Industrial Association this morning.
 At the meeting of the Association held Thursday night this matter was brought up and 1t was agreed by the members of the Association that the reputation which had gone abroad did the city no good, but instead great deal of harm. inasmuch as the city deserved no such Q reputation.
 In discussing the question at the meeting members stated that with the exception of possibly week, the weather in Selma had been as pleas ant and agreeable as could have been expected and that the thermometer had gone no higher here than at other points throughout the State. The meet ing instructed Secretary Slater to look into the matter and to ascertain how the Government thermometer was located and if he found anything the matter to take 1t up with Weather Ob- server Chantee in Montgomery.
 Secretary Slater said this morning that he had looked into the location of the Government thermometer and that he had found 1t located in the sun in the back yard of the weather ob- server in the western part of the city, The box in which the thermometer was located he stated was just about two feet from the ground and which caused the mercury to register high CT degree of heat than, if the thermon- eter would have been located other wise.
 Mir. Slater, according to instructions will take up the matter of the loca" tIon of the Government thermometers with Mir. Chaffee. What Che regula- tions are in such matter he does not know, but hopes in some way to show that the reputation which Selma is re- ceiving as being the hottest place in the State is untrue.
