COTTON HAS FAIRLY
GOOD UNDERTONE
Private Bureau Report of
82.7 Causes Heavy Buy
ing-Gain 2 Points

New Orleans. July 30.-The cotton mar
ket had fairly good undertone today,
chiefly because of bullish expectations re-
gardlng the condition report Friday. In
the afternoon private bureau report of
S2.7 per cent was put out. indicating a
loss for the month of 2S points. This
caused buying. which resulted in the
market closing at nearly the highest of
the day.
The opening was steady at an advance
of 1 point Gables were better than due
and the weather map showed continued
dry weather In the western half of the
belt In the early trading prices stood 2
points up. but little later the forecast
of cloudy and unsettled weather for the
western belt and the report of the first
bale of the Georgia crop at Savannah,
stimulated selling and after the middle
of the morning there was weak period
in which prices went to s points un-
der yesterdays close. In the afternoon
the market again displayed steadiness
and at the highest went points over
yesterdays last quotations, on the new
crop months. The close was steady at
net gain of l to points.
Private reports told of good rains in
Texas points which were not included in
official accounts. These reports stimu-
lated considerable short selling at times
during the session.

UPWARD RUSH|N
THE CORN MARKET
Big Trading and Flighty Ac-
ton of Prices Keeps Ex-
citement High

Chicago, July 30.-Big trading and
Tightly action of prices kept excitement at
high pitch today in corn. There was sharp
difference of opinion as to a further up
turn in the market showers having been
predicted. The close was nervous, A@ssc
above last night. Wheat finished at a
decline of d@1c oats off h@Ac to 3sc,
and provisions varying from unchanged
figures to soc down.
Broadly speaking, the country bought
corn; city spectators sold- In the end
the buyers were outnumberng the sellers.
Dry, hot weather over the entire belt
brought such a volume of orders to pur-
chase that the opening was unusually
wild, prices ranging as much 1c apart at
the same moment among brokers almost
at each others elbow; it was at this time
that the top level of the day was reached
Just when 1t looked as If a runaway
market would de selop in corn, one of the
largest houses on change began selling
right and left with such force that a
bear party was quickly organized 1t was
argued that much of the crop damage
could yet be repaired except where hot
winds had destroyed the pollen. Soaking
rains would be needed but an official
forecast of showers and cooler weather in
clined many spectators to take chances
against the bulls. On the ensuing de-
cline, however. there was a great deal Of
reinstating by early sellers.
Wheat gave way as soon as 1t was evil
dent that the upward rush of the corn
market had been halted, at least for the
time being Reports of generous -threshing
returns from the winter crop had much to
do with the weakness sof wheat So, toe,
did the big primary receipts, 900 BUSH
els, against 1, 200 bushels a year ago.
Seaboard clearances of wheat and -four
equalled 92,000 bushels.
Oats followed the same general course
as corn, but the trade and excitement
was by no means so great. Selling by
some influential dealers who bought yes
terday was of a persistent sort.
Realizing by holders wore down pro-
visions. The hog market, and to some ex-
tent corn, suggested that the time was
opportune to unload.

LITTLE CHANGE IN
COTTON MARKET
Fluctuations Wide at Times.
Opening Steady and at
Net Advance

New York, July 30-Comparatively
little net change was recorded in to-
days cotton market. although fiuctu-
ations We're wide at times, July, for
instance, selling down 19 points under
yesterdays close as a result of heavy
pressure from houses with western
connections and notices aggregating
5000 bales which were quite unexpect-
ed. The opening was steady at | to 3
points advance, reflecting better Liv-
erpool cables than due and dry
weather map. Gradually prices worked
off, however, to a level about to 10
points under last night on new crop
positions, due to selling for Liverpool
account bearish advices from all parts
of the belt except central and eastern
Texas, and the unexpected pressure on
July. There was also some selling at
midday on local predictions that west
ern barometer lines and the official
forecast pointed toward change in
southwest weather conditions and that
showers were possible in Oklahoma
and west Texas, perhaps extending later
into the drouth districts of the east
ern parts of Texas. This depression
continued until well along into the art
ernoon when private condition figures
of S2.7 made an appearance, compared
with S5.5 by the same house last
month. 1t was considered buliish and
started an active line of covering which
rapidly advanced prices to the highest
point of the day on new crops, the
close on which was unchanged to 4
points higher against 10 points net de-
cline on July. OF the FIVE private con-
dition reports thus far issued, the aver
age is S2.1 against the government fig
ure early this month OF SIS. As sew
eral more private reports will be re-
ceived tomorrow the trade was rather
nervous at the close and inclined to
anticipate a bullish figure on Friday,
although the latter will hardly reflect
the latest unfavorable conditions in
Texas. Wall street was again buyer
of cotton although not on such a lib
eral scale as yesterday. Southern spot
markets were practically unchanged to-
day.
