Back of everything else seemed to he the settled convic- tion that~this will be large crop. and this conviction resulted in liquidation of long contracts and fresh selling for short account.

New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, July 31-Lower prices pre- vailed in cotton today as the result of selling induced by large crop talk. Little attendtion was paid to the bullsh influ- ences in the weekly crop reports from the government or to forecasts of a low con- dition report tomorrow. A private crop estimate of 100000 bales, including lint CTS, seemed to be back of the selling. Intensifying bearish sentiment were re- ports of scattered showers in Texas. At the lowest of the day the market stood 3S to 47 points under the last prices Of yesterday, the clase was 37 to 45 points off, net
 Opening at the decline, the nn,rket lost 15 to 22 points around the first call, but made a quick recovery and went to points above yesterdays close. The de- mand did not last long and the market soon started sagging again, tendency which was maintained all day.
 Most traders called the weekly reports unfavorable, on the whole, and the rains in the west were not considered general enough to alter the drouth situation, but the long side was more inclined to even up to commitments than to increase them Much talk of deterioration of from to points in the July condition report was heard but without quickenng the demand

NEWS OF CLAYTON

Clanton, July Especially While it is county are in good fix, still those inter ested are not content, but efforts are be- ing made to still improve matters. L. H. Reynolds and Judge $. M. Adams are making speeches in different sections of the county urging the people to work earnestly in their respective neighbor- hoods and especially on the cross roads that lead to the public highway.
 Large shipments of graphite are con- tinually being made from Mountain Creek station to points east. It is known that some of this graphite is for govern ment use.
 With the approaching election comes the fact that Clanton will have to elect a mayor, and as Mayor Kemp has proven that he is equal to the occasion there. IS strong probability that he will be called on to again direct the affairs of the city, while his brother, m case he should be elected sheriff will direct the county af- fairs connected with the sheriffalty. By this means Clanton will have two of it's most successful business men occupying positions of trust.
  Press and the Banner, were hit hard by the draft. Newton Aldridge of the Press and NJ. w. Wyatt of the Banner were called to the colors. However. there were two good men secured for both the pa- pers w. E. Corley is now running the Press md Jean Wyatt takes charge of the Banner.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, July 31.-Some good rains around San Antonio. but no general rain in Texas The weather, however, was cooler throughout the southwest. During the past two days the complaints from Texas brought about the covering by the sellers of last week, as they expected a poor weekly weather report and bu- reau report tomorrow which would show a decline in condition of about points. No new buyers appeared after this cov- ering demand had been satisfied, and some sellers from the south found few buyers, so the advance of the past two days was lost. There Is no improvement in the weather in the southwest. With little chance of good rain for another week. Whether the deterioration there will offset the condition in the remain der of the cotton belt will determine the course of prices.-Hubbard Bros. & Co.

Over R. s. Stewart & Cos Wire

New Orleans, July 3l.-The New York Journal of Commerce makes condition TIA, against S3.1 last month, and makes indicated crop 14,500,000 and 100000, with linters, from which 1t argues a surplus of 5000. GOO. This argument seems to over- look the fact that the crop has declined further since July "A. and that on the present weather situation, the greatest decline in condition may come durios August.
 Weather map shows good rain in the San Antonio section, but otherwise only insignificant precipitation over the south eastern portion of Texas, leaving the western drouth situation practically un- changed However, temperatures are lower over the northwestern quarter of the belt Generally cloudy weather pre- vailed over the eastern belt with general rainfall. Indications are for generally fair and warmer in the western half of the belt, except possibly some showers in extreme south Texas, and cloudy, snow, cry weather in the southeastern quarter of the belt, where the continuance of the rainy spell is beginning to cause appre. hension.
 The market experienced a decline Of about 20 points with early selling on some rains west and bearish views as to the bureau tomorrow, many believing that the government coiuitioH VII So ouiii- ciently high, yet to deduce bearish crop estimate. However, the prevailing dispo- sition is to look at declines as rather incidental, because it is being realized that crop condition has Appreciated further this week and the loss is still go- ing on.
 The weekly crop report is distinctly worse than expected. It is drastic fin tfe western states. saying growth stopped altogether in Texas, plant small, she'd ding, prematurely blooming at the top bolls opening too rapidly. 1t also re- ports some deterioration in the east from increased damage from weevil and red r.
