REALIZING SALES
WEAKEN MARKET
Rains and Crop Reports
Were Chief Incentive
to Buyers

New Orleans. July 25-After a period
of steadiness and higher prices today the
cotton market became soft under realiz-
ing sales from the long side and closed
at a net gain of 2 to 6 points. In the
early part of the session, trading months
terday's last quotations. Around the
opening and for sometime after buyers
found little for sale, but late in the day
decided pressure to sell developed and
market comment was that large traders
on the long side already letting go large
amounts of holdings recently accumu-
lated
Continued rains over the eastern half of
the belt was the chief incentive to buy,
although a fair volume of buying ap-
peared to have been inspired by expecta-
tons of unfavorable government crop re-
ports tomorrow, but the outlook for a
lower condition report on the first of
August than was issued a month ago.
This was the last day in the July condi-
ton period, and feature which added
to the early steadiness was the rumor
that private crop reporting bureau was
out with figures on condition of rs per
cent of the normal as against SOL a
month ago Boil weevil complaints from
the central belt increase and added to
bullish sentiment. Reports of the con-
tinued showery weather over the greater
part of the eastern belt is regarded as
highly unfavorable. Spots were quoted
at an advance of Scent pound.

Charles Fairchild & Co.'S Letter

The cotton market this morning gave
early evidence of nervousness on the part
of the shorts. 1t advanced thirteen to
fourteen points from yesterdays closing
figures, hesitated, declined slightly, and
rallied again. In the final hour local in
terests became sellers and in the absence
of any aggressive bull support prices
eased about fifteen points from the top.
III the last few minutes of business, how
ever, short covering and fresh buying for
long account brought about rally frorl
the low of four to five points. We be-
lieve the conditions in the Eastern belt
is very serious. We look for an extremely
bullish government condition report on
August 1.
We expect big trade and speculative
bL wing meantime. Prices have every rea-
son to advance and very little to de-
cline. We favor purchases, believing that
the highest levels seen in recent years
are justified by conditions.
We are partial to the long side of cot
ton seed oil. The market has had a
drastic decline A short cotton crop
means deficiency in oil. Both these
conditions in our opinion are inevitable
october, November and December look
cheap, despite the bearish views at pres
ent prevailing.
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1916-07-26

made a full response by opening from
eight to ten points advance. The bulge
was met by a flood of selling orders
" hich closed the days trading with only
about five or six points net advance to
the bulls credit.
The market bulls extremely hard and
inasmuch as the weather in the eastern
belt is improving and that of the west
ern belt has been all that could be de-
sired, it is very likely to continue hard
to push above present prices with new
cotton already moving. Bachman and
Martin were heavy sellers. The former
selling represents the ideas of the Wat
kins Bureau on the crop and inasmuch as
they are sellers. the natural deduction is
that Watkins is bearish. The National
Ginners was out with one of their usual
'rumors" of a condition of about rs per
cent. This, if true, is 80 per cent. higher
than the ten average of the government s
August condition of 72.5 per cent. Believe
these bulges afford good opportunity for
short sales.

$40, 412,424 over the preceding quarter,
as in excess of the most favorable esti-
ates. The action of the directors in de-
airing an extra dividend of 1 per cent
SO came as a surprise, but was accepted
indication of extreme confidence in

NOTABLE ADVANCE
OF COTTON PRICES
Market Steadily Advances
and Reaches a Rise of So
Bale in Two Days

New York, July ga crop scare de-
veloped in the cotton market today and
advanced prices Is to Is points attended
by heavy covering and a notable increase
of outside buying. The rumors that a
southern crop reporting authority would
make condition slightly under 76 or a
decline of about points for the month
made a strong impression on the specula-
tive mind as it was taken to indicate
what might be expected of approaching
private and official reports, especially the
government report at the end of the
month which is made up Of statements
from correspondents at the close of bust
ness today.
Opening to 10 points higher, the market
steadily advanced during the first hour
to 1920 for October and 13.49c for jan
uary, representing a rise of about 81 per
bale in two days Business was more &C.
tive than it has been in many weeks
and there seemed to be a good deal of
concern over conditions east of the river
although the alarm was somewhat modi-
fled later in the session by the failure of
bullish reports from the South Atlantics
from that section. In fact, this situation
led to more aggressive selling after mid
day by the bear element, particularly
Wall street and prices late in the day
eased off to 13.14c for October. and 1886

net advance of to points
The forecast of further showers In the
eastern belt and dry weather in Texas
and Oklahoma were considered unfavor-
able, although it was generally admitted
that cloudy weather and occasional show
ers in the southeast were preferable to
dry, hot weather, which would cause ex-
tensive shedding. Reports that New Or
leans ocean freight rates to Liverpool
would be advanced next month led to
selling from that quarter. and there was
also Liverpool selling here in the first
hour, although the latter market closed
firm on the crop news, and 10 to 131a
points net higher Southern spot mar
kets maintained their firm position, and
there did not appear to be as much south
western hedge pressure as had been ex-
pected on the advance.

DEALERS DISCOUNT
BLACK RUST DAMAGE
Wheat Reached High Prices
But Weakness Prevailed
at Close

Chicago July notwithstanding that
wheat at one time today touched the high
est price yet this season, the market,
on the greater part of the day was on
the decline, influence largely by cooler
weather in the black rust region and by
assertions that for the present the damn
age had been discounted by the recent
big advance in quotations. Weakness
prevailed at the close, which was to 25sc
net lower with September, 1.191a. and De-
cember, 1.23. Corn finished 1sc off to &c
up; oats down 14c to ss@1ac, ana provisions
varying from 2Gc decline to a rise of &c.
1t was a day of profit taking on a
big scale by commission houses that had
been extremely bullish of late, as to
wheat, but had decided to regard the adj
vance as sufficient for the time being
Conflicting reports regarding the pres
ence of black rust in Manitoba counted as
to some extent in favor of the bears.
Gossip was current that high freight
rates on the ocean has checked European
demand for wheat. Late in the day, how
ever, Baltimore sent word that a cargo
of United States wheat had been pur-
chased there for export. 1t was said, too,
that domestic millers had made lib
eral purchases of new winter wheat in
the southwest. On the other hand, pri-
mary receipts showed a big increase as
compared with last week as we'll as with
a year ago.
, Corn weakened with wheat but country
houses and few locals showed desire
for the December delivery and most of
the strength displayed was in that future
which closed &c higher. Weather condi-
tons reported not propitlous for the crop
rendered also to prevent any decided set
back.
Trading in oats was not heavy and the
price trend followed the course of wheat.
Country offerings were moderate, and the
cash demand was not pronounced. Firm
ness in live hog prices failed to influence
provision dealers and prices were lower.
Important selling induced dip, but good
support took prices away from the low
levels.
