Avery's Letter

Hester's figures on consumption showed 14,O3O, ,O0O bales of American cotton been consumed during the commercial crop year ending July S1. and his analysis of the present statistical position of the remaining supply, visible and invisible. to be 3,365,O00. These figures, especially the big consumption, was the real push behind the market. which again lifteu prices to new high levels, crossing cents in most months.
 McFadden & Weld were conspicuous in the buying. Wall street shorts covered and castles was in the limelight on the bull side.
 Many conservatives said 14.5cc for May in New York discounted great deal This however, remains to be seen.
 If each producer of cotton in the soutt would pledge themselves to put O bales of their first picking in the ware house and market the remainder s'o and 1udiciously they can maintain these

DAMAGE ID WHEAT
 CROP DISCOUNTED
Heavy Profit Sales Offset Reports of Crop Failure
 and Prices Decline

Chicago. August S.-Heavy sales to -re-
 than an offset for<reports of a virtual crop failure in a large section of Mant-
 toba and Saskatchewan. The market,
 which was influenced also by reassuring
 later advices from Canada, lost all of an Hearly advance and closed weak at h@ssc
 to 7sc net decline, with September, s1.2s7s,
 and December, s1.337s. Corn finished h@
 Ac down; oats up 5sc to 11sa1Ac, and
 provisions at gains of 5 to S2Ac.
 Fifteen cents a bushel advance on
 wheat in three days proved too great
 temptation to be withsood by a rna- jority of the bulls, even though the latest upturns had been based on explisit dam age reports from one of the best known experts in the trade. He had sent word this morning from .Estevan, Sask., that the wheat crop from Brandon, Manitoba, to Oxbow, Sask, was a failure. Rust, he said, was in every field, and was ex- tending toward Estevan. This anounce-
 ment brought about excited onsets of fl esh buying and consequent sharp ad- | vance in prices. Then the load put on the market by professionals taking on large scale began to take effect, and there was a succession of downward | swings in value, accelerated by an au- thoritative denial of yesterdays report that black rust was present at Moose jaw Sask., and by comprehensive off cial statements from Winnipeg tending to show that damage reports had been extravagant.
 Whether or not the facts had been stretched as to the harm wrought in Canadian wheat fields, many spectators here seemed to have adopted the view late in the session that the crop damage as a market influence had been insuff- ciently discounted-at least for the time being
 Corn swayed with wheat On the whole | though, the market ruled comparatively l firm, owing to increasing reports tha1 | cornf1elds were firing in Kansas and | in central Illinois. Oats developed in- | dependent strength owing mainly to un- | favorable estimates current as to the to. l tai domestic yield as compared with a month ago.
 l Buying to fill relief orders for Belgium l gave the provision market a lift. Lower | quotations on hogs were ignored. Future quotations were as follows:
