Reports of Showers in Tex as Cause Advance to
 Lose Ground

New York, June 23.-The cotton market owing to the increased buying by trade interests covering for over the week. end. but further rains or showers were reported in Texas and advances were not maintained. the close being steady net unchanged to 8 points higher.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of 2 points to decline of points. with October cotton selling at 1299c or into new low ground for the movement. There was active buying around the ini- tial figures attributed to foreign spin ners, and while the official weather map showed more rain In the southwest than on any previous day this week, the mar ket quickly rallied from the low point. The belt forecast for unsettled weather in east Texas. but for generally fair con- ditions in West Texas and Oklahoma, appeared to stimulate the covering move ment during the late forenoon and at midday active months showed net gains of from to 10 points Trade buyers, however, did not seem disposed to follow the market up on advances and as the up- turn has attracted little outside buying for long account, the market became quiet on the rally. The detailed weather report for Texas, showing precipitation at some 25 stations in that state. added to the bearishness of sentiment and dur. ing the afternon the market turned easier again, closing only a shade up from the lowest. Private wires received late in the day reported showers again this after noon in some sections of the southwest The weekend figures showed a very small into sight movement, but spinners takings ran light owing partly to the English holiday.
 Receipts today. 1206 bales. against 3074 last week and 3239 last year. For the week, 10000 bales. against 12, 773 last week, and 23,S04 last year. Today"s receipts at New Orleans, 53 bales, against 923 last year, and at Houston, 1267 bales, against 324 last year.

Especially is this true of last week, when private advices reported good rains, which the government did not have. rms mat ter is heinz investigated. After the rally of inc morning, the market slowly de- clined on reports that rain was falling in Dallas.
