New Orleans wires again: Spots

 Boston wires concerning the mill sit
 ation: Inquiry among leading mill | men shows very general feeling in
 favor of curtailment of mill output by closing one or two days a week. but
 as yet nothing definite has been ar
 rived at: An expression t,s i a Of opanion nif by
 ficulty in getting the necessary major ity to carry out the plan is admitted in the article. Threats Of mills shut
 ting down are always heard when mar kets for the raw material temporari- ly advance faster than the goods mar ket but with such large grain crops general trade conditions must be sat- tsfactory and. if England does such a
 large business with the Orient, our
 mills will surely not withdraw from competition
 Following are the opinions of some New York cotton houses:
 Crusel & Finn: We must look for lower prices"
 S. B. Chapin 6 Co: We would rath-
 CT advise buying on further dips than Renskorf, Lyon & Co: We continue
 to have a favorable opinion of the situ-
 ation."
 Bailey & Montgomery: We look for | a period of much activity and think
 that the swing of prices up and down
 is likely to be wide"
 Following is The Journal of Com merce report on Oklahoma and Texas: Texas-The month has been disap- pointingly dry and in many sections high
 temperature prevailed. Rainfall has been deficient and only scattered. so

 Der of correspondents say that more cotton will be made than anticipated.
 Top crop prospects have been greatly injured by continued drouth. Reports
 of boil weevil damage are very feW,
 but complaints of leaf worms are more
 numerous. The crop Is about one-haI
 picked against S5 per cent last year

COTTON GOSSIP.

Considerable cotton was offered yes- terday but trades were not consummat- ed owing to the price.
 Yesterday was a banner day for the local market in cotton receipts.
 Rail and wagon receipts amounted to 1925 bales.
 Wagons loaded with cotton were on the Square at an early hour yesterday morning.
 All months opened a few points down but closed at few points advance.
 The market fluctuated within a short range characteristic of 1t before the Government reports.
 The Journal of Commerce report yesterday on Texas and Oklahoma was not as bullish as expected.
 The recent decline in the market has discounted anything bearish.
