NEW YORK Aug. 2s.-Hutton's wire says:
Room traders bought this morning. anticipating
a good reaction. but turned sellers when they saw
New Orleans sending selling orders here. Tie
lower spots at interior points also had depress-
ing effect. The damage by storm In South Caro-
lima and Georgia given very little considera-
tion. However crop news is bullish. Reports
from the eastern part of the belt claim great
damage by foods, but the trade continues to ig-
all that and is as bearish as ever on the
outlook. There Is doubt OF frmer tone to
the dry goods market and prices better The
weather today is improved. Liverpool is show
