CLARK A CO.'S OOTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS. April 16. -There were no particular developments over Sunday to call for special trading. The government continue* it* effort* for a large production of soil crops of every kind. 4 Liverpool was better than due on old crops, but shows the full decline on new crops an-l quoted spots 11 down with sales of 7,<K*o bale*. Weather conditions over Sunday were favor able; generally fair central and eastern belt, cloudy in western states. Indications are for unsettled weather with pros|)ects of more gen eral rains In Texas. Oklahoma. Arkansas, west-, ern Louisiana, increasing cloudiness in the cen tral belt followed by rains toward Tuesday night; generally fair in the Atlantic*, with rainy weather following towards Tuesday. The review of the cotton g<**ls market is very bullish. My . ing: “Cotton goods buying very broad and active.” Our market opened about 4 down on old, 106714 down on new crops, and weakened fur ther during the first hour to 19.08 for July and 18.19 for October. The idea underlying the bearish tendency is probably that widespread taxation, the prominent mention of impending food scarcity and the higher cost of living, as well as the appeal for strictest general e-'onomy. will find expression ultimately in reduced buying power and consumption. While engagements for this season are made, the consideration of shrinking enterprise and consumption apply most ly to the next season and should find expression in a greater discount on new crop futrea.
