COTTON MARKET IS
 GENERALLY HIGHER
Demand Broadens on Bullish
 Crop Reports
REALIZING VERY HEAVY
Advance Is sharp But Prices Recede From the Top on sellinE--Growing Cotton h Said to Be
 Deteriorntfng

New York, July 2S-Wnile there were no such sensational fluctuations In July cotton as yesterday, the market continued very active today and ruled generally higher with December and later posi- tions making new high records for the season on a broadening general demand attributed to buIlish reports from the new crop and talk of an improvement in the demand for cotton goods. The close was steady at net advance of points.
 The market cpenoa firm at unchanged prices on July. but generally 8 to IS higher on steady cables, continued dry weather in the southwest and rush of overnight covering orders. Realizing was heavy around the initial figures, and while July steadily improved after open ing at I5.90c, the later months worked off to 1U points from the best during the middle Of the day under profit-tak- ing for over the week end and the gov- ernment report
 Private crop advices continued very bullish, however, with condition report issued by a prominent local authority in dicating a deterioration of fully per cent during the past month. and offerings were so well absorbed on moderate re- actions as to suggest a rather general sealing down of new crop views. Many early self9rs, who found their offerings so well absorbed, turned to replace their cotton in the late trading, and while the close was a little off from the best there was at no time any sign of weakness.
 It was estimated that July notices for over S90n0 bales were issued during the morning. making nearly 100000 bales that had been ieHde rcd the bulls since the first of the month, cut these notices were quickly stopped and July sold at 16.05c, or 15 points above tie closing figures of last night, with the close at 15 9Sc bid. To- morrow will be the last day of trading in July, and sentiment was still nervous in the late trading owing to apprehensons that there might yet be some belated short interest. Southern spot markets were 1sc lower to Ac higher.
 Receipts of cotton at the ports today, 2444 bales, against 1908 last week and 2510 last year; for the week, 30,000, against 56,441 last week and 1S,4J1 last year To- days receipts at New Orleans, 491 bales, against 46S last year, and at Houston, 157, against 80 last year.

WHEAT DECLINES ON
 LARGER RECEIPTS
Amount in Primary Markets Is
 Very Heavy
WINTER CROP IS GOOD
CooIer Weather in the Corn Belt With General Rains Makes the Market Wenk-Oats Lower and
 Provisions Irregular

Chicago, July @.-With receipts of wheat at primary markets today reaching a total nearly double that of week ago, and considerably more than at the corresponding time last year, heavy tone developed. The July delivery was an exception because the wheat that is arriving cannot be unloaded Into pub lio elevators soon enough as rule to be available for this months contract. The close, although showing full 1c advance for July, was off 2s@1asc for the other options. Cooler weather and rain let down corn. which finished at net decline of to 2s4c. Oats made a sim liar record to the extent of 1B01ssc, and provisions 10@S0c, bargjng July pork, fix ture at last nights levels.
 First threshings of new spring wheat in Minnesota showed yields of 25 to 3S bushels an acre and turned the scales ion that the winter wheat crop as a whole was also threshing out satisfac- torily had considerable influence as a hearish factor. The spring crop natural ly was not looked to for such fiattering results in general as those mentioned from Minnesota, but the outlook was said to be as favorable as could be hoped for, considering the earlier life of the plant.
 There was no selling of wheat here to- day on Wall street orders. notwthstand- ing that stocks there were higher. Notice was taken, too, of the fact that while France is said to be buying wheat on the Pacific coast, the French markets ex- hibited a decided reaction from recent high prices As the day wore on there was notable falling off In country ac- ceptances of bids for cash wheat. indicat- ing apparently smaller run from now on. The explanation seemed to be that cash wheat was selling at Sc to 4c under July delivery today for No. 1 and No. hard. and No. ? red, most unusual sit uation. September ranged from s1 02MQ 1.04ls, and closed asc to 1a@ssc net lower, but steady at s1 .035sQ1 .O3%.
 Cooler weather spread all over the corn belt today. Rains were fairly general. Local and eastern speculators who were largely responsible for the recent sharp upturn In the price of corn, were busy unloading during the greater part of the session. Oklahoma reports were to the effect that crop damage there has not been so heavy as alleged. Fluctuations in the September option had as limits 63asc and 658sc, with the close steady at 631k@ 6S5sc, net decline of 21s@2Ac. The cash market was weak; No. ? yellow finished at 67c.
 Hedging sales against cash purchases weighted down oats. The harvest is prac- tically completed up to level with Chi cago, and with good weather will be end ed as far as the Illinois northern boun- dary this week. September varied from 37ssc to S13@3Sssc, and closed 1A@1asc down at 37%c.
 Grain weakness and a larger run of hogs made provisions heavy. Pork gen. orally was 121a030c lower at the wind-up; lard. 121sc to 30@S21ac; ribs. 10425c

Interior Movement
New orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, July 2s.-Cotton fu- tures opened steady at an advance of 8 to II points on good cables and con- tinued dry weather in the western half of the cotton belt. July was very strong in the first half hour of trad ing and advanced to a level 90 points over yesterdays closing. The other active positions stood 10 to II points up at the end of the first half hour of business. The posting of the wealth CT forecast calling for fair weather for Texas and Oklahoma steadied prices when they seemed about to ease off un- der profit taking by satisfied longs. Reports from many points in the west said that the situation was fast be- coming critical as the result of too It, tie rain and too high temperatures.
 Bears displayed opposition to carry ing the advance on the new crop months higher around the middle of the morning and making much of bet ter crop and weather news from the eastern half of the belt and com paratively large movement of new cot ton In Texas, they sold the active months to 10 points down from the highest of the morning. Around 1S40c for October fresh buying orders were received by commission houses in suf- ficient volume to check the decline. Re- ceipts of 147 bales of new cotton at Galveston and ii Daies at i1ouston TO- day caused bears to- predict that the movement of new cotton up to Sep tember 1 would be much larger than the bull clique has ever estimated and that 1t will probably be a factor of Importance in the August position. At noon the market was quiet and steady
 ? to points over yesterdays closing.
 In the afternoon session the mar ket felt the influence of a bullish cir cular from a prominent New York op- orator and prices were put to the high est levels of the day again, SO far as the new crops were concerned. Neith

Hubbard Bros. s Co.'S Letter

New York, July 2S.-(Special. J-Cable reports were better during the day than at first and our market opened with un- usual animation and an advance from which there was a reaction on profit taking with heavy selling for foreign ac
 count The activity of the bull leaders was confined to the support of the old crop but speculative interest has been stimulated and the shorts were large buyers. Crop reports are not good. The Journal of Commerce says that Georgia outlook is gloomy, Texas is still dry and hot. Private estimates of the crop con ditions makes decline of 51 per cent. The belt otherwise than above shows generally good weather. The tendency of the trade is to support prices until the government figures are out of the way. should the market then be over bought present prices would appear high.
