The*
Tendency Toward Lower
Level with August Show
ing Most Weakness.
The cotton market has shown
downward tendency today, August
(hon ing the greatest weakness.
News influences have not changed,
the crop prospects In some sections
bring reported aa brilliant, while In
others some deterioration Is raported.
Fluctuations have covered a narrow
range, with business very dull.
Mr. Price has issued a condition clr
eular, compiled ifrom 6,344 replies of
an average date of July II, ae fol
l0 "Thc average condition la 71.2, we
against a condition of 74 reported by
my correspondents last month, and 69
this time last year. The fact that the
condition Is only 1.2 abova that re
ported by my correspondent at this
time last year speaks loudly as to the
last yei
: of the
reported on an average twelve
late, nnd for this reason It la more
than ever exposed to the vlclsltudea of
the weather hereafter. It la notewor
thy that while the condition In Texas
and the southwest Is better than last
year, tha condition In tho Atlantic
states and Alabama Is decidedly below
that of last year. Many of my corre
spondents report that should hot, dry
weather now follow the execettlve rains
which have been general throughout
the South, the result will be a very gen
eral disaster.”
In the late afternoon a covering and
bull support resulted In advancing
prices In some options sharply above
yesterday’s final figures.
