SHARP ADVANCE IN
 COTTON MARKET
Shorts in Near Month Posi- tions Very Active in
 Covering

New York, July 24.-There was more of scare in the cotton market today over crop conditions in the eastern belt than has been shown at any time since the rains started in a fortnight ago. Most of the activity and covering movement took place in the last hour when prices ad- vanced over a dozen points from the early low levels and closed F to F points net higher with the tone very steady.
 Shorts in near month positions were especially active, but there was a good trade in the entire list with some in- crease of outside speculative buying based on the idea that the weekly government weather report, due Wednesday, and the bureau condition figures, due on August 1, would both reflect the bad conditions east of the river Except around the opening when relative weakness in New Orleans and selling orders from that mar ket encouraged pressure from room bears here, offerings were light and scattered all day and by no means so aggressive as they had been last week. This was taken to indicate change of sentiment on the part of room traders and while most of the adverse news came in from the east ern belt there were some complaints that clear weather had come too soon in the western belt for the best interests of the crop and that unless further showers ap- peared, 1t would soon be suffering again from drouth.
 A wiref rom Atlanta said that late cot ton was reported hopeless in many places. The one thing which puzzled traders here ir connection with this news was the fact that it was not accompanied by buy ing orders. This feature induced some of the big shorts to add to their lines on the idea that damage reports had been ex- aggerated and tended to restrict outside speculative buying more or less all day. Some of the local trade also thought that there would be hedge selling any ad- vance In the market. Undoubtedly, how ever, the trade is getting aroused over the extent of damage reports and with more rain predicted for Tuesday looked for further buying unless the weather shows decided improvement. Exports for the day were S7,542 bales, making 5,SS7- a1 for the season.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, July 24.-(SpeclaI.) )-The continuation of rains in the Atlantic states caused a steadier market here today. It is felt that as the report Is made up as of the 25th of July. it will show a very sharp deterioration in the eastern belt, the buying, however, was largely from local interests who have been switching back and forth trying to obtain some position of which they could feel confident that the market would have 8 big swing one way or the other. It IS surprising the indi florence with which the trade view the situa- tion. The mills are pursuing a hand to mouth policy, and the south shows lit- tie disposition to sell heavily against their coming crop. In fact 1t is this scarcity of contracts which causes the market to respond easily to any in- fuence which would tend to change values materially. Unquestionably the Atlantic states have had too much rain. There are few in the trade who re- member a season such as that which we have had to date and this, together with the lack of the use of fertilizer. has upset all ideas as to what ought to result from the prevailing weather con- ditions. Therefore, while there is It, tie disposition to sell short the vast majority are waiting to see what Is going to result from these unusual weather conditions, especially as the western crops is in almost perfect con- ditiOn.

NEW ORLEANS
 COTTON ADVANCES BulIish Traders Regard Sit uation as Serious in Ger
 tain Sections

New Orleans, July 24.-After a period of hesitation around the opening to- day the cotton market advanced rather strongly on general buying bases on continued excessive rains in eastern portions of the belt. Bullish traders re- garded the situation in several sections as serious owing to the threat of fur ther washouts, floods and rank growth of grass and weeds in fields which farmers have not been able to get into for many days.
 Around the opening there was de- termined selling for a time and one brokers sales of October were esti mated at 5000 bales. This offset the effect of the weather map and fairly favorable cables. At the lowest, how ever, prices were only 1 to points under Saturdays close. From this there was a gradual rise until, in the early afternoon, trading months were 12 to 13 points over Saturdays close. Last prices for the day were at net gain of 10 to 9 points.
 According to market gossip. spot peo- pie led In the buying movement A fea- ture of the day was the report of the first bale of the Georgia crop. Texas telegrams stated buyers were paying 13c for cotton not yet picked.
