VERY UNSETTLED
Old Crop Liquidation Is Heavy
and Prices Decline
NEW CROP rs STEADY
Continued Hot Weather In the South

NEW CROP rs STEADY

New York. July 26.-The cotton mar
ket was unsettled today as a result of
old crop liquidation and prices have rul-
ed generally lower with the close barely
steady at net decline of one point to
an advance of four points, the new crop
being relatively steady on cables and
the continued hot, dry weather In the
southwest. Late positions received good
support, after the opening but the old
crop was heavy under some scattered
selling of July which was believed to be
against late arrivals at New York for
delivery on contracts and liquidation
of August. With the western belt fore
cast calling for partly cloudy and con-
slow to follow the decline but gradually
eased off and in the late trading be-
came rather weak under rumors of rains
at two to three points in Texas, and
Wall street selling, while local bear pres
sure was also encouraged by the weak
ness of the stock market.
There appeared to be few buyers of the
old crop at any time during the day and
July sold off to to 15.S7c or 81 points net
lower while August touched IA. Ole or q
points lower ard the lowest prices reach
since the culminstion CT the July cover
ing movement at 1850 for that position
last week. The new crop at the worst
showed a net loss of only IL to 10 points
and last prices were we'll up from the
lowest on covering.
1t seems that a little more cotton is
reaching here for July delivery than has
been anticipated, and it Is believed that
this accounts for most of today's SELL
ing. The bull leaders were credited with
selling some August but a good deal of
the liquidation Of this position was be-
1ieved to be by "trailers' who were re.
placing by purchases of the new crop
months at the decline.
Receipts at the ports today. $3.50, against
1883 last week and 3189 last year. Tor
the week 5000 bales against 5s,4H last
year. Today's receipts at New Orleans
1894 against 1888 last year. and at Hous
ton 961 against $50 last year.

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, July 26.--Cotton futures
opened steady, points down on August
and ! to points up on the new crop
months. Cables were about as expected,
and the weather map was about as ia
vorable as 1t was unfavorable, no rain
of consequence being reported anywhere.
Longs were proft-takers in the first half
hour of trading and under this selling the
list lost to points. At the end of
the first half hour of trading the market
was dull. and traders on both sides
showed disposition to curtail opera
lions In view of the nearest Of the Au-
gust condition report.
Selling continued until August was Is
points under yesterdays closing and the
other active months were points under.
The weekly weather summary from the
weather bureau was rather more unfa-
check the declining tendency of the mar
ket. Scalpers took advantage of this,
and toward noon placed purchases that
helped prices recover 5 to points from
the lowest levels of the morning. The
market, however, had little life, and no
great amount of strength, what was due
in a great measure to more favorable
reports from the eastern half of the cot
ton belt, where less rain for several days
past has apparently allowed the crop to
make some little Improvement.
In the afternoon session the market ex-
hibited considerable nervousness, and
prices showed quick fluctuations. Early
In the afternoon there was a recovery
to within couple of points OF yester-
days closing on the more active posi-
lions, but toward 2 o'clock another SELL
ing movement started, which put the list
