New York, July 2.-The action of the market after the appearance of the report was about what was to be ex- pected in view of the record improve ment shown for the month. but the ab- sence of any speculative long interest was very apparent. as well as the ex- istence fo short interest which has accumulated in the course of the re- cent decline.
 There has been nothing of late to worry that interest and while some covering has been going on this after noon it has been light and scattered and largely due to disinclination to go over three days with open commit ments Trade interests also bought to some extent and the opinion was ex- pressed that Europe would not be very deeply impressed with a crop expectancy of 11,500,000 bales at this season of the year with the critical period still to pass through
