New York. July 12.-Prices have reach ed nigh levels today on general buying in which Liverpool and domestic trade in terests have been prominent as well as brokers Who often act for leading Japa- nese spot houses. The advance is in face Of generally favorable weather news and reports of improvement in the crop pros poets in many localities especially in Texas. Temperatures continue rather high in the Southwest with Fort Smith reporting 102 degrees Offerings. however. have been on comparatively small scale and mostly in the way of realizing. though not few in the trade express the opinion that these prices discount the bulllsh features in the situation to date quite fully. The supply of contracts. how ever, continues limited as producers even where they are willing to hedge at leas part of their crop hesitate to do so. fearing unfavorable crop developments later which would compel them to margin such sales heavily before their cotton will be ready. There has been more selling today through houses with southern con- nections than for a long time past which bears out the opinion that a certain amount further will be marked around these prices and on advances, but the pressure has not been severe enough to encourage sales for short account.-Post and Flagg
