STEADY ADVANCE
In COTTON MARKET
Rally On Unfavorable Wealth.
er Reports Brings Nervous
ness to Bullish Element.

NEW YORK, July 15.-Although
expectations of those sanguine
bulls who are expecting a runaway
market, prices continue to hold
steady. and this morning, after
opening IL points lower to 2 points
higher, rallied on unfavorable
weather advices from the South. a
good spot demand. and an increased
nervousness on the part OF shorts
There were reactions, but the SELL
ing apparently came from those
who had bought at considerably
lower levels.
The nervousness and the suscept-
ibility of the cotton market prob
ably reflects the uncertainty in the
minds of the trade regarding the
question of suffciency of supplies
of the coming season. There are
those who talk of 100000. and
even 100000 bales. but private
reports fail to confirm these con-
tentions. or else the South is very
grossly exaggerating their crop
There has been undoubtedly some
Improvement in the Southwest. but
the weather in Central Texas is now
beginning to worry the trade. as
down in that section there has not
been sufficient rainfall recently
Now is the crucial period OF crop
development. and 1t has almost be-
come an axiom in the cotton mar
ket that deterioration starts to set
in at this time of the year.
Trading was more mixed this
morning than at any time during
the past week. The weather is be-
ing watched by every trader on the
floor. The first one who obtains
reliable information on the weather
seems to have the market his own
way. The majority of houses are
bullish.
The Manchester situation is also
reported not as good as IL has been,
and there was talk yesterday that
Lancashire was whispering possi-
billy of short time. No one in the
trade takes much stock in such a
report as exports of cotton goods
and yarns from England are in
creasing each month.

Low MONEY RATE
HELPS BOND MART
Impressive FURRY in Liberty
Bond Group Brings
Firmer Tone.

NEW YORK, July Is. - This
weeks advent ,, of Enthusiastically
cheaper money here. coming as il
did simultaneously with a cut in
the Bank of England's rediscount
rate to per cent, was a good omen
for the bond market. There were
other factors at work on the other
side of the balance, however, so
that there came nothing like a
boom in bond prices taking the mar
ket as a whole. The impressive
furry in the Liberties. every one of
which rose to new high levels for
the year. and the smart rally in
most of the better-grade legal
issues indicated. however, that the
week closed with a distinctly firmer
tone than 1t began.
Not so much was done in the
more speculative issues, OF course.
since stocks moved uncertainty
much of the week. and the cheaper
bonds take their lead more directly
from that quarter than from the
bond market. itself. Following
MONDAYS sharp break in the foreign
bonds there came gradual but
noteworthy Improvement to that
HIST. and these bonds generally
closed around the weeks better
levels. The French issues were nat
urally the greatest sufferers on the
bad German news; but, on the other
hand. the French issues made a
faster recovery than any of the
other foreigns.

Since last May wheat and cotton
prices have been moving in opposite
directions, while the price of corn
has remained steady. Sixty days
ago the prices of wheat and cotton,
as a result of their advance from
the low level of 1921 noted in the
accompanying chart. were back in
line with the general level of whole
sale prices. which then stood at
about so per cent above the 1918 av-
erage. The slump in wheat prices
since then has thrown that commod
