 Despite Unsettlement

NEW YORK, July 7.-The market acted in a comparatively steady manner during the period of unsettlement on the New York Stock Exchange and in other se- curity trading groups. but prices natur- ally reached lower levels. This was due largely to the fact that many curbs are secured in accounts which other Issues are held and suffered from the general uquldating movement. There were special reasons for declines in some of the indus trials labor troubles being brought for ward as a reason for the steady supply of Gillette Safety Razor. which dropped from 25O to PAP.

New Orleans daily letter on cotton by private wire to Doremus, Daniel & Co.
 NEW ORLEANS. July 7.--Moderate de- pressions prevailed in cotton today except that after the early trading July made some show of strength because of the eliorts or few shorts to cover July seems to be fairly well liquidated with only scattered interest left in it. and the advantage remains with holders of long contracts because of the supply sit uation. Selling was induced by continued favorable weather over the belt and by the rather unfavorable tone of week end reviews of trade in general in this country.
 Generally speaking. the weather over the belt was dry, rainfall being confined to immediate gulf coast sections. The fore cast called for dry weather over Sunday in all sections of the belt, except foI showers in southeast Louisiana Tempera- lures were about normal, being neither too hot nor too coll, and comment was heard that night temperatures were highly favorable for the plant. A feature of the returns from the belt was the improve ment claimed in some sections of Georgia, in which state the first bale is TOW pre- dicated for July 20.
 Trade reviews were fairly encouraging in statements concerning retail business, but still noted caution and hesitation among buyers in the wholesale markets. In cotton goods, the advantage plainly cotton Is likely to continue much of a weather affair this coming week.
 New York daily lette on stocks by private wire to Doremus, Daniel & Co.
 NEW YORK, July 7.-The market today with some few exceptions maintained the rally of the past few days especially In the speculative leaders which have borne the brunt of the attack for the past few weeks.
 There was renewed pressure on Delawore and Hudson, the stock touching 93A, new low for the year. Various reasons were ascrIbed to account for this decline. One report had it that large block of the stock was being liquidated for estate. There have been no indications that the directors who meet July 25 for action on the quartey dividend contemplate reducing the dividend.
 We are now inclined to believe the oil stocks, outside of technical rallies, have seen their peak until such time the present flood of oil meets better demand for consumption, but good securities like Baldwin, American Locomotive, Pullman, Southern Pacific and Atchison should show good returns on purchases made at pre- vailing prices.

Butter Weakened By Weather Conditions

CHICAGO. July 7.-weather conditions were largely responsible for the weak con dition of the butter market during the closing days of June and early part of past week, according to market reports Hot dry weather brought in burdensome supply of under-gradc butter to the mar kets. which were further weakened by the holiday during the week. bringing light demand and uncertainty as to the course of the market.
 Demand for storage butter sprang up md in New York found offerings of de sira blc goods very light. Confidence in the market was restored as stocks cleaned up. and although declines later are p"cted, predictions of sharp breaks are less common.
 Relief is. current that prices will be lower Reports indicate the peak of pro- -duction is passed. but excellent weather conditions are expected to make the de- line from the peak slower than usual.
 Among imported goods. Denmark is finding favor in New York; Esthonian m | Holland were also included in i'm ""rts during the week. Canadian mar cts declined some, but were still too :"h for American purchasers.
 Range in wholesale prices 92 score but far during the week were as follows:
 Chicago. unchanged at 37iac; New York,
 '-half higher at 3sc; Boston, one-half
 at a5l7c; Philadelphia, unchanged

HUBBARD BROS. LETTER

NEW YORK, July 7.-The market de veloped a good undertone after the early selling on the opening. The selling was attributed to profit taking after the ad- vance of yesterday and some thought that there would be further decline on favor able map. Towards the last hour however. further short covering made its appearance and the market regained the early losses. There Is some cloudness predicted in the eastern and central belt but the weather Is still fair in the west. The July position Is extremely strong and the stock in New York Is being slowly depleted. This has a very strengthening effect on the market and may cause further advance.

trade shows slight falling off. Worth street continued dull and featureless The strength in July yesterday and today was attributed almost entirely due to pur- chases of this month by spot people. As the New York stock is supposed to bo necessitate buying in that much hedge.
 A reliable New Orleans cotton man travelling Texas wired that he found 6t per cent of the crop good 10 per cent poor. 2 70 weeks late very little cotton made to this time. fruiting unsatisfactory, general rains needed. Thinl. conditions in general overrated, fruit'ng would have to improve materially to justify the larger crop views. Sentiment remains bearish but the market cannot be judged entirely rom il weather or crop outlook standpoint while July remains such uncertain factor.- & R. Stewart & Co.

Pressure Resisted By Stocks And Bonds

NEW YORK, July 7.-Stock and bond prices offered more stubborn resistance to selling pressure this week and disclosed . marked improvement in speculative senti- ment. While the absence of many large traders from the floor and the resultantly decreased dealings made 1t difficult to | determine whether the reactionary move ment which began in March had been definitely checked. market observers agreed quite generally that barring un- expected and unfavorable foreign develo D. ments the market had discounted most of the bad news in sight.
 On several occasions toward the end of the week short traders found the floating supply of stocks small and their short covering operations resulted in some marked gains. 'f Commodity prices continued reactionary, with additional cuts in load copper, rub Der and few minor grades of crude oil.
 Raising of the British bank rate which was regarded as one of the most signifi. cant developments of the week, is expect cd to check the diversion of duns from London to other centers and to strengthen sterling exchange, which established. a new low for the year during the week. Several continental ourrencies also were quoted at the years lowest prices.
