ACTIVE MONTHS Up
ABOUT 10 POINTS
One Feature of Day Bu-
reau's Report on Grow.
ing Crop

New Orleans. August The one fea-
ture of the day in the cotton market was
the report on condition of the growing
crop on Julk % The percentage of 1915 of
the normal was considerably lower than
expected and led to a buying wave tha
put the most active months up about 10
points The advance would have been
much wider, but for the fact that specu-
lative buying was restricted the agitation
against future trading in cotton now be-
ing carried on in Washington.
The condition report showed a loss for
the month just closed of 2.2 points and
was A of point under the 10 year aver
age, 500 per cent December rose 10
points In the five or ten minutes after
issuance of the figures. Other new crop
months showed less advances The old
crop was inactive.
The market opened steady, unchanged
to points down, compared with yester-
days close Cables were unfavorable but
selling was prevented by the continued
dry weather in the western belt and the
forecast of fair weather for west Texas
and Oklahoma. At II o'clock, the time of
the bureau report, the market stood at a
net less of to points. The decline was
quickly recovered in the trading that fol-
lowed the report and in the early after
noon the most active months were 10 to 10
points over the last prices of yesterday
The close was at net gain OF 8 to 7
points.

SHARP ADVANCE
IN COTTON MARKET
Report Showing Condition
1876 ResponsibIe-ClOse 8
to Ii Points Higher

New York. August 1.-The govern
ment's report making the CONDITION Oh
the growing cotton crop 1916, against
SIS last month; 7s.5 last year, and
1O-year average OF so per cent, was
under general expectations and caused
quite sharp advance in the market
during todays trading. Business was
not particularly active. and there, was
nothing to Indicate that the official
statement had materially stimulated de-
mand from either trade or speculative
sources, but there was considerable COW
ering, as well as some support from
Wall street bulls. and the market ad-
vanced some Is to 20 points after the
publication of the figures. The close
was barely steady as result OF reallz-
ing, but prices were from to Il
points net higher
Business was quite enough during the
morning to suggest that scattering ac-
tcounts had previously been pretty weR
evened up for over the bureau. Ca
bles were a shade better than due, Gov
ering by nervous shorts or continental
buying, and the local market opened
steady at an advance of to points
There was not enough demand to main
tain this Improvement, however, and to-
ward midday the market eased off un-
der scattering liquidation, which seemed
partly due TO reports of showers in
central Texas. Just before the govern
ment report was issued, prices were 2
or points net lower on new crop po-
sitions but quickly rallied, closing with
in or points of the best. Indica-
tions pointed to lower temperatures in
the southwest, which led to predictions
of showers, and while local weather
forecasters said barometric conditions
did not point to any general rain. 1t
was claimed that conditions were some
what improved. This probably tended
to modify the influence of the compare
lively low condition figures 0to some
extent, while local sellers on the ad-
vance which followed were also en-
couraged by a reported absence of trade
demand and the appearance of south
ern selling orders around the ring
The Weekend figures attracted no
particular comment, and were hardly
factor in the days trading. Liverpool
will remain closed from today until
next Tuesday morning.

the tension, and was thought to have
been sufficient to meet the demand for
the rest of the week. Yesterday aft
ernoon 1t was reported that snapper
was cleaned up" The price advanced
to 11Q12 cents and none was to be
