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 YORK COTTON.

Grain ———————— * I (By Associated Pless.)- j 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. CHICAGO QUOTATIONS The following were the ruling prices in the exchange today: Pr®v.

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.
