COTTON REGISTERS
STEADY ADVANCE
Reaches Best Levels of
June in Series of Moderate
and Slow Gains.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, June 29.-In a series
Of slow and moderate advances the
cotton market this week pushed up
to the best levels of the month.
The passing Of the first July notice
day without the issuance of tenders
and the maintenance Of July pre-
MUM Of from 80 to 80 points over
October was regarded as emphasizing
the tightness of the spot situation,
and when July liquidation subsided
contracts became relatively scarce.
october closed yesterday at l1.53,
compared with 1923 at the close Of
the previous Friday.
AS the July liquidation tapered
OF without any easing Of the near
month premium a question was raised
as to how far the old crop situation
might carry into the new crop posi-
tions, and there was probably some
buying toward the end Of the week
on an idea that scarcity of contracts
would continue below a parity with
the 12-cent loan value, pending the
new crop movement.
A more favorable view was taken
Of weather conditions over the greater
part of the South and Wednesdays
weekly weather report said that ex-
cept for continued wetneSS over
considerable Northwestern area and
need of moisture in the Southwest
the period had been fairly favorable.
Nevertheless, crop complaints con-
tinued to come in from the South
west, keeping alive the apprehensions
Of a low yield with anything less
than very favorable conditions dur
ing July and August.
Reports from Worth street indi-
Gated a continued slow demand for
cotton cloths in the primary markets
and pointed toward continued or in
creased mill curtailment during July,
