Green & Co.'s report on cotton futures savs:
“There has been considerable animation to-day
on cotton contracts, with the general tone of
the market easier and prices averaging lower all
round. Buying and covering orders on new
crop were generally lighter and the desire to
sell greater. The latter was due to more favor
able weather reports from the cotton belt and
weakness on the Southern market, coupled with
some disappointment over the tenor of advices

Chicauo, Aug. 2.—The corn pit was more
excited to-day than any grain pit on "Change
has been since the wheat panic in June. Corn
got av, ay from the shorts yesterday, and tlmre
was a fright among them to-day. Crop reports
were unchanged to-day, and that was all the
bulls desir. and, and they cam-- on 'Change deter
mined- to send corn up. Sept end ier, which closed
strong at Vie yesterday, after an advance of
lk>e. opened at'lie, sold up to tljrje. then back
to lifj-yc. then up to 42c. back to 41ie, and
finally to 43J2,c, arnl closed at 12e, just 2c over

May corn, us 011 yesterday, showed the most
marked advance, and closed at 4t!Uc. or 2J<c

lating offi-ct on oats, but the usual crowd of
t: .al-rs in wheat left their pit to look on or take
a hand i:i the corn deal. While it was evident
that rh,. 1 uige 1.1 corn was started by shorts,th
market long beforo noon, even, hud assumed
Kuril strength, and the pit contained such a
I my,. cn.Wd of general traders, Dial shorts
eea -d to be iinieli of a fitetor from the 1111-
tisually large nimls.T of orders received, the
eoiintiy m emed to have a settled conviction
that owing to tie- lack of rain crops hud sus
tained very material damage. The country was
very heavy buyer all the way up. Wheat at the
otsming sympathised with corn. It closed last
