the southern cotton states and the Atlantics.
The weekly government report next Thursday
should be bullish. Indications are for cOntin-

heavier precipitation to result shortly from q
disturbance In the southwest and a tropical
storm in the south Atlantic, which the gov

J. w. JAY & co.'s COTTON LETTER
NEW YORK, July AT the opening of
the market there was large selling in Hquida

chant commission houses bought SO freely that
the offerings were absorbed and the price was
sustained throughout the day. The contention
