DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS. July 14-While
there was not much rain in the Western
States over Sunday temperatures were
lower and are now entirely normal. This
result. without much rain. is perhaps
more favorable to crop prospects, as
rank growth will be prevented and ma
turity furthered in the Southern por-
tion. where much of the crop is about to
be out beyond damage by weevil.
Partly cloudy weather prevailed in the
central and eastern belt, with some
scattered showers, best in Tennessee,
north Alabama, Mississippi and Florida.
stationary conditions are indicated for
the next two days except that Okla
homa. northwest Texas and western
Arkansas will have increasing cloudiness
and prospects for some rain.
Liverpool came in as due and quotes
spots points lower. Sales 10, 600 bales.
Very pessimistic views from Paris on
the financial situation are the only
striking feature in the foreign news.
our market opened easier with feeling
rather bearish, but strong bidding in
July by certain leaders at once checked
selling and prices held well around 1.4s
for october.

crop OF 1913 The consenus OF opinion
is to the following effect:
!. Improvement has been the rule
weather having been almost ideal for
cultivation.
2. There has been no lack of labor
and the fields have consequently been
worked to the maximum.
3. Complaints OF boil weeYil come
from several States and the reports
from certain districts of Mississippi
show that grave damage has already
occurred. .... ..-s'.

last month, the crop is still on the
average somewhat late

possibilities are great in either direc-
ton With a perfect season on from
this time forward "a bumper yield might
be expected. with a seriously unfavor-
able change in this regard, the out

Grain Notes

Bartlett. Frazier & Co says: Wheat:
The map shows general rains in the
Canadian Northwest and some on this
side of the line. Some reaction in prices
would seem reasonable
Corn Liquidation has been very
heavy and we look for the strength in
the cash position TO prove at least
steadyng influence
Oats. As in corn. liquidation has
been drastic. but the cash situation is
entirely different, stocks being excess
i've for this time Of the year and really
prove the greatest weight on the mar
ket At the same time the decline has
been a very sharp one, and a reaction
would naturally seem in order.
Provisions. The strength in July
pork continues and packers as well as
shorts are good buyers of lard
Last year on July /, the Government
report was taken as indicating yield
Of 30.1 bushels per acre, on oats and
a total crop OF l,l39, 900, 900 bushels.
From that time forward weather condi-
tons were favorable, the crop filled bet
ter than anticipated. and yield 1nally
81 per acre, and total crop l,4lSOOO,-
900 bushels. A similar record of crop
Improvement seems probable this year.
The last Government report was gath
cred at the end Of June, when severe
drouth and abnOrmally hot weather dis
couraged crop observers. Immediately
after that date good rains visited the dry
districts and temperature was normal,
furnishing the conditions needed for
filling and all reports for a week or ten
days past indicate an improved situa-
ton Last year such conditions after
July l. added seven bushels per acre to
the yield Half as much a gain this
year would give crop. which. taken
with the heavy carry over Of old oats.
would make a supply fully as burden
some as that Of last year. "-Rycroft
Winona, MINI. says the crop looks
fine. Corn is IS to 20 per cent better
than last year. All reports this morn
ing from Iowa, Minnesota. South Da-
kota and Wisconsin say the best corn
crop ever raised is In sight.

NARROW ESCAPE
FROM DEATH
Miss Susie Wore and Miss Sarah West
Have Experience They Will Not
Soon Forget.
BARELY ESCAPE FAST TRAIN
Horses Become UnmanageabIe and
Dash Down RraiIway Track
Stopped at Cattle Guard.

Miss Susie Wore had an accident
last Thursday that might easily have
proven fatal. She. accompanied by
Miss Sarah West, of Omaha, was driv-
ing to the 1. c. depot, and thus had to
cross the Northwestern tracks. Just
as these tracks were being reached
the occupants of the carriage saw the
flyer approaching. An instant later
one of the horses bits broke, thus
leaving the driver, Miss Susie, with
out control of the horses. The team
began to run, making three short cir
cles on the double tracks. The last
time around they overturned the car
riage, the occupants being thrown to
the ground. The engineer of the fly
err, taking in the situation, slowed
down his train, but did not STOP The
sharp whistling, however, started the
thoroughly frightened horses down
the tracks to the west and they were
stopped by the cattle guards west of
the station Miss Wore and Miss West
were considerably bruised, but they
came through the accident fairly we'll.
The team was uninjured, but the car
riage is a total wreck. 1t was an ex-
perience Miss Susie will not forget
for some time.
