Grain Notes

The Chicago Inter Ocean says: THE
wheat bears have the best OF 1t. Hedg
ing business is coming into the market,
making it safer for the short seller than
at any time within a year. Sentiment
has become excessively bearish, and it
would not be surprising to a majority
to see lower prices, although the best
traders are looking for irregular de-
clines
Corn specialists attributed the break
of ! % on September yesterday, making
a drop of almost 4 cents from the re-
cent high point to unloading by longs.
1t is noticeable that sharp traders, who
were long, have unloaded their pur
chases on bids Traders said they
would not be surprised to see a rally
some day, but believe corn should be
sold on all bulges
September oats dropped below 40
cents yesterday with stop orders selling
sufficient TO carry prices to 1874. Those
who have watched the market closely
for two weeks say there has been a
steady unloading by longs and de
crease in the outside buying The liz
uidation, however, is not regarded as
over"
Bartlett, Frazier & Co. says:
"Wheat-OfeTings from the country are
somewhat lighter, but local sentiment
is bearish and new speculative buying
from the outside does not come in.
'COrn-The rains this morning are
likely TO cause luIlIltE selling, dllAOuRn
LIQUIDATION was on a liberal scale yes
terday. Cash prices do not show as
much weakness as the future. owing to
moderate receipts and scarcity of offer
ings from first hands.
"Oats-There is nothing new in the
situation, except that receipts are some
what smaller and cash inquiry a shade
better. Sentiment is very bearish and,
as in the other grains. outside buying is
extremely limited
Transformations under estimates

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE cotton
market was quiet at the opening of the
cotton market to-day and first prices
were to 5 points higher than Fridays
final The demand from shorts who de-
sired to even up for the weekend. When
this was supplied prices eased off a

Spot houses again purchased summer

broker started the market on an up

bidding aggressively for large blocks OF

NEW ORLEANS, July 13.-Hayward
q ozark: The weather map was very
general rains in eastern half, heaviest
In Tennessee and North Alabama, where
most needed. Cooler in west. Indica-
tons are for partly cloudy to fair in
the Atlantics; possibly some scattered
showers. Cloudy in central and west
ern States, with cooler weather and
showers coming on Texas over Sunday
Clearing and cooler in Oklahoma and
Arkansas
J. B. Turner, of Memphis, has the
following on the condition of the cot
ton crop for the week ending July Il:
The week was normal and hence a
favorable one for the season. Tempera.
lures were quite high over a great part
of the belt, but toward the end were
materially moderated Generally speak
ing, there was an abundance of moisture
in the soil, and hence the cultivation
was near perfect. The plant stood the
excess of temperatures quite well and
continued its growth and fruiting in a
satisfactory manner. There is no strik-
ing change from the conditions Of one
week ago and this of itself is a favora-
BILE item.
Little or no rain fell in Texas and
Oklahoma, where already the supply of
moisture was abundant, while down the
MISSISSIPPI Valley there were many
showers and locally heavy rains, which
relieved an incipient drouth and set the
cotton to growing rapidly. Showers fell
also in the eastern states and were Of
benefit. As a whole, more rain in Ala
bama and States eastward would be de-
sirable, though not necessary at this
time.
In Eastern Texas, Louisiana and
Mississippi weevils are more numerous
than in several years, and their ap-
pearance has aroused the planters
alarm, AS yet their depredations have
been quite limited"
The Times Democrat monthly crop re-
port is expected Monday. We think IT
will be favorable except for giving the
boil weevil danger the usual prominence.
Official Texas records show an aver
age for the State OF rs degrees; three
stations show 100; nine stations 1902; one
station 104; and one station 106 The
maximum average for Oklahoma is 1902
Galveston will get a new bale to-day
