EARLY ADVANCE IN
MARKET CHECKED
Cotton Prices Ease Off With
Close Steady and at
Net Loss

New York, August 7.-Prospects for an
improvement in southwestern weather
conditions checked an early advance in
today's cotton market. and prices eased
off with the close steady at a net loss
of to points Oh active positions. Near
months were relatively quiet and steady
during the entire day, closing points
net higher.
There was renewal of yesterdays s
buying movement at the opening and
first prices were to 3 points net higher
Liverpool futures were shade lower
than due, If anything, but reports of a
better spot demand in the English mar
ket and a feeling that peace in the Bal
kans might be a step in the direction
of improved continental trade conditions
probably helped the local advance. Fur
ther private deterioration reports from the
southwest and the failure of the early
weather map to show any relief from
the slry, hot conditions recently COM
planned of We're the main bullish fea-
lures, however, and during the early
trading inspired quite an active demand
from Wall street and houses with west
ern connections. As prices worked up
ward a few stop orders were uncovered
and the market at one time showed a
net gain of about 6 to 12 points. with
the new crop positions selling about 20
points above the low level of Monday.
Demand became less active at these fig
ures, while considerable realizing devel-
oped, and the market later eased off on
private predictions for lower tempera-
lures and rains in Texas and Oklahoma
before the end of the week. The Off
cial forecast for generally clear weather
in these states, but for increasing clouds
ness in Arkansas were supposed to color
the predictions of individual forecasters
in both the New York and New Orleans
markets. whose views seemed to be based
either on low barometer off the Louis
lana coast, or a high barometer with
lower temperatures which appeared to be
working southeastward from the north
Pacific section.

DOWNING CHOSEN
STEWARD ASYLUM
Trustees Elect Successor to
Turley at State Hospital
at Jackson

Jackson. Miss, August 7.-(speciai. )--At
the meeting of the board Of trustees of
the state hospital for the insane today,
Tom Downing was elected steward to sue
seed ~om TurleS, who recently resigned
because Of the several indictments and
charges of wrongdoing charged against
him by the legislative investigating COM
mittee.
The election of Mr. Downing was unani-
nous, and comes of clean record during
a. former tenure of that important office.
Mr.. Downing was q steward for eight
years, and the committee that checked
his accounts gave him a perfectly clean
bill OF health There was no such thing
as the issuing of warrants to straw
men" no suggestion of graft. nor any
charge of any kind of crookedness against
him.
Since he was let out year or more ago
on change Of administration, Mr.. Down
ing has beer steward at the A. and NJ
college, but wanted to get back to his old
home aud applied for this place. Ap-
plications for the A. and M. job are now

MAINLY WEATHER
MARKET IN SOUTH
Fluctuations Carry Prices
Above and Below Wednes-
days Close

New Orleans. August THE cotton
market was nervous today, fluctuations
carrying prices above and below yester-
days Close 1t was a weather market
and buying was based on the dry weather
map and high temperatures, while selling
was founded on private reports of mois-
ture in the drouth districts of the western
belt and private forecasts of more rain to
come. Those who were bullishly inclined
were not disposed TO pay much attention
to private reports and forecasts, but prj-
vate utterances fitted in well with bearish
sentiment and stimulated no little selling
On the opening the tone was steady and
prices were unchanged to points up,
compared with the close of yesterday. Ca
bles We're not high enough, but selling
around the opening was prevented by con-
tinued drouth and high temperatures in
Texas and Oklahoma. In the early trad
ing prices We're sent 3 to 6 points over
yesterdays final figures, which was the
high level of the day. Around the middle
of the morning private reports of rains in
the west began to circulate and the mar
lSet fell to level to points under yes
torday's close. The denial of these re-
ports caused a complete recovery at noon,
but In the afternoon the market weak
ened again and fell to II points under
yesterdays last quotations. The close
was steady at the lowest of the day.

HEAVY SELLING IN
THE CORN MARKET
Belief End of DrOuth Near
RespOnsibIe-The Close
Was Nervous

Chicago, August Belief that the
breaking of the drouth is near led
to heavy selling today in corn. Closing
prices We're nervous at range 7sc

night. Wheat finished Il % &c to q
down, oats with a gain of 1se to Aq
Sc and provisions varying from 2z
decline to an advance of 25c.
Rain scattered over the northern part
of the belt with additional moisture
predicted for Tonight and tomorrow in
clined many spectators to bearish
view of the corn market. Nevertheless,
all the offerings We're well absorbed; ;
some of the larger bulls became ag-
gressive and added to their holdings.
The September option, in which some
leader is supposed to have a big line
was especially tight at the windup af-
ter series of rapid changes over a
range of cents.
Distressing reports of damage to corn
in Kansas and Missouri accompanied
news of scorching heat and of ex-
hausted moisture. So acute was the
situation southwest that st. Louis was
said to be buying corn near Chicago
today to ship to Wichita Kan, a pro-
eeeding seldom if ever before attempt-
ed. Wheat prices suffered from pres
sure due to the slowness of export
sales and because of the raising of
private estimates of yields in the spring
crop states. The market rallied a lit
tie In the late dealings, some shorts
eyincing a disposition to even up pend
ing the issue of the government report
tomorrow. Primary receipts We're l.
