COT TON BELOW HIGH MARK .
Bull Clique Still in Control, but
Price Eases Off to 1925.

Compared with the sensational happen
ings of the day before. when the August
cotton option jumped 318 points. or nearly
Sl6 a bale in forty-fve minutes the local
cotton market yesterday was a tame affair
august opened at 20 cents, the high mark
of the preceding day. but dropped almost
Immediately to 1880 cents and then TO 10 e5
cents pound. at which figure il held frm
for a time.
Notwithstanding the drop in August
however, there was a belief that all the
shorts had not vet covered their contracts
IN that option. and some traders look for
further pyrotechnics" before the matur-
ity of the August option at noon to-day
That the bull clique has full control of the
situation and can make the outstanding
August shorts pay any price they demand
for that option is generally admitted but
1t is not believed that they will try TO force
the price above 20 cents. Including yester-
days tenders which were estimated at
about 10000 bales. the bulls have received
about 10000 bales Of August cotton from
the bears. The profits of the bulls on the
transaction are estimated at about 450N 600
Throughout the afternoon trading August
was quiet at between 10 % cents and IS 50
cents a pound. There was very little ac-
went commitments in the option were
pretty thoroughly fquidated. As a matter
Of fact more interest was displayed in the
September option. which was active and
strong at & net advance Of q points or 81 20
a bale. 1t is understood that the bulls
have been conducting an active campaign
n that month, with the idea Of continuing
tne Success of their August deal. and tie
advance in that opti0r yestarGav upas At
trlbrted to covering by shorts. who feared
q squeeze in September similar to that
which took place in August on Monday
August closed at 19- 40 cents. net loss
for the day Of q points, or L75 cents 4
bale, and a loss Of s. 4 bale from the high
point Of 20 cents pound touched at the
opening of the market. The other options
closed unchanged TO points lower Sep
tember losing all of its advance at the end
and closing at 1876, the same as on Mon
DAY.

COTTON BILLS OF LADING
American Bankers to Have Conference
with English Tinanciers

Washington, Aug 20.-With the prospect
that American cotton shipments 70 Eng
land may he curtaned seriously this year
because Of the hitch with English banks
over guarantees Of American bills Of 1adfng.
q committee OF New York bankers will go
to London for conferences with the English
nnanclers- The British banks have issued
an Ult1marum thai after November 1 they
VIII not receive cotton bills Of Iading from
this country unless they are guaranteed bv
American banks. This step was induced
by the recent alleged frauds which resulted
in the failure Of knight. Yancey. &. Co. Of
Decatur Ala, which vas followed by
heavy losses in Liverpool.
The American national banks under the
law cannot guarantee cotton bills of Iading.
and there is great apprehension that unless
the English banks recede from their posi-
non the annual movement 10 England will
