Cotton
'By AaMciatad Press.)
NEW YORK. Aug. 7.—Reports of rains in thel
southwest caused more or less realizing and le- j
clines in both the Liver|*ad and local cotton
markets early today, Liverpool was Rt-JarU
points lower at the hour of the local opening
when due to conic Ito 3 points and the mar
ket here opened steady at a decline of 4 to 1”
points. Private wires were received reporting
showers at several Texas points, also at Okla
homa City, and there was probably some selling
for a reaction as well us profit taking or li«|-
uidation.
The outlook for further showers in the east
ern b-lt was considered an unfavorable feature,
however, while th.' official forecast suggested
nothing more than showers on the Texas coast
and prices here soon steadied, with December
selling up from 14.14 to 14.19 and January
from 14.21 to 14,30 before the end of the first
hour. Liverpool also rallied on the relativelj
steady ruling of the American markets.
Offerings increased late in the morning ow
ing to the detailed weather reports for lexas
.-howlng very general showers or rains for
Saturday with precipitation ranging up to over
an inch at some few stations. December con
tracts sold off to 14.08 and January to 14.17
or atmiit 15 to 16 points under Saturday s clos
ing figures, but at this decline sellers were not
aggressive and prices were steady early in
the noon hour with December ruling around
14.12 on covering and trade buying.
After selling off to 14.07 for December and
14.15 for Wanuary. the market developed re
newed strength during the early afternoon. The
amount of selling brought in by the Texas
rain news seemed to be smaller than some of
tfcc lm-al traders had expevted, while others
claimed that any improvement in the south
west woultl be offset by the continue*! dry
weatbor in Oklahoma and the rains reported in
the eastern belt, f-nying became much morej
active abd prices made new high records, with
December selling nn to 14.33 and January 14.42
nrouml 2 o'clock on covering and a n-newal of
hull support.

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 7. —Poor cables and
rains in Texas' stimulat'd selling of cotton in
this market today and in the first t-alf hour
of imsinesr prices of the active months lost
7 to i» l>oints. The market was quiet ami buy
ers of last week were inclined to liquidate on
a moderate scale.
The market received little support at any
time during the morning and a moderate sup ,
ply of contracts served to widen the decline. At
n«m the trading months were at a net loss of
10 to 15 points.
In the early afternoon there was heavy buy
ing from leading bull operators and the market
quickly bulged from a net decline to a net ad
vance, rising about a o f a cent in a few
minutes’ time. At 1:30 the trading months
were 25 to 27 jwdnts up from the lowest and 13

CHICAGO, Aug. 7. —Wheat prices weakened ;
today under liberal selling due to Liverpool as-,
sertipns that any gnat l>la<*k rust demnge ip
Canada was still unconfirmed. Later, the mar
ket rallied on account of report// that black rust
lias been found in every field near Mwse Jaw,
Sask. The "pturns in values, however, failed
to prove of a lasting character. Opening
prices, which ranged from ,Uc to l-)»e lower
with September nt sl.-»-': ;, i to $1,341;, and De
cember at sl.37*'j t<> >I.BB, were followed by
a recovery of nearly all the loss, but then by
declines lower than before.
Much of the selling in wheat was to pre
pare for a possible surprise in the govern
ment ciop report tomorrow. Besides there
w/.s a material increase of the United States
visible supply total. The close was unset
tled, l T 4c to 2e net lower with September at
•51.‘13 and December at >l.36ss@ 1.36%.
Corn showed strength owing largely to thn
bullish nature of the Missouri monthly state
crop report. Showers in Illinois, however, acted
ns an offset. After opening unchanged to le
higher, the market scored substantial gains all |
around, nn-l then underwent a material sag.
Profit taking by longs tended afterward to
weaken the corn market. 'The close was nerv
ous at %@%c to l*/sc net decline.
In /..its the effect of the corn bulge was
more than cour.ter-balani'ed by the weakness
of wheat. Gains were only transient
Higher quotations on hogs gave firmness to
provisions. Trailing was of fnir volume.

JOHN F. CLARK & CO.’S COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 7.—There were some'
passing rains in the western states. %it pre-1
cipitaticn was mostly over the southern half!
of the state, while the drouth area is over 1
north Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas, and the 1
map this morning again show s fair and no >
rain over that territory.
Cloudy weather prevailed over the eastern ;
half and rainfall continue./ general end wa>
heaviest over Alabama. Georgia anil Florida.
High temperatures over the Savann/iti-Charlec
ton section must be considered unfavorable. In
dicatlons are for partly cloudy west of the
river with possibly some precipitation ovei >
southwest Texas. Generally cloudy east of the j
rlrcr w-lth rather general rainfall likely. |
Drouthy conditions in the northwestern portion
of tilt cotton belt are not relieved tut it is
to be hoped that they will he in the near ■
future.
It is absolutely necessary that the western '
states, north Louisiana and Arkansas main- ;
tain their prospects for a full crop to com-1
pehsntc for the very deficient yield prospects
elsewhere and to assure at least o moderate
simply of cotton for the season.
Tiie following report from Georgia on con
ditions in the eastern states shows bow 'ranch
the western states 1-nve to make up: “Dam-,
age to crop in the eastern states seem* Im- ,
yond repair but there is hope so rsome recov
ery during August: unless it takes place, how- '
ev»r. tiie crop will be /ireailfully short. It is |
poorly fruited and badly in grass and with the
best of weather don’t think last year’s crop
can be equalled.’’
Rnlns in tlm west should have no effect on
the market, as they .would only cause delay
to maturity and harvest without changing the
Kttllisli fundamental situation In cotton nn whicL
the present advance in the market is tased.
\ n Hable rei»ort to us from Arkansas says:
“Made careful examination of field* Saturday
and Monday. Great deterioration and damage
bv dhouth and weevil.”
