Later on reports of Uibught in southwestern Texas, some recovery in Liverpool and buying by start* mused a rally, which put prices slightly above the closing prices of yesterday. Copious rains were reported m some parts of Texas and spot markets at the South were weaker. One firm said: “To soil cotton at ruling prices Is taking the chances that there will be a cor.tinui- ticra of all the bearish features that have recently prevailed to bring the market down to Us present level, and as many ‘things may happen, such us adverse erbp reports, a settlemept of.tariff mat ters and a revival of business confi dence. one or all of which might occur within the next sixty days. It would seem best that the season should be a little further advanced before attempt ing to put the market below the figures touched today. However, we must wait on Liverpool, as Is usually the case, to determine whether prices have recov ered as much as present crop prospects warrant. With any encouragement from there we shall/ improve, but without that support we shall have tb drag along until we hear more favorably from that market.” ■■IPI^HLXVBRPOCP*. Liverpool.

Chicago, July 31.—There was far less strength to wheat at the opening today than marked the close of yesterixy. The corn market was oft and, as wheat took its impetus from that grain when ad vancing, it quite naturally receded in sympathy. Long wheat whs disposed of with aa much celerity os possible, not considering the question of profit and loss. The entire session did not indicate any inherent strength, although alt the close a moderate rally took place on buying by holders to privileges. Very little en couragement was derived from the an nouncements, unless, perhaps, the export clearances had some effect In steadying prices. The primary market receipts were the larges* for any day since the inaugu ration of the new crop movement. Sep tember opened 63V4 to &3%; sold between 64 and 52%. closing at &3%a% of a cent under yesterday. Cash wheat was in good demand at about steady prices. Corn, after glancing at the weather map, the bull in corn plunged tnto the pit at the opening, and frantically endeavored to sell Coff‘.e, options quiet, 15 points down and 15 points up.

Chicago, July 31.—Wheat, a weak open ing, an. early rally and gradual easing off. characterised trading m this market. Foreign advices showed but a feeble re sponse to the strength yesterday, which was not sustained, later dispatches re porting Liverpool selling. The news was again bearish and everything current had a depressing effect, and it is very plain that ytaderduy’a strength was purely sympathetic, and short* scarce. Ship ments from India, Baltic and sundnyporu* 2,864,000 bushels; .American shipments, 3,- 300,000 bushels, making the total European wheat supplies Cor the week, 6,164.090 bushels. Shipments of wheat from an countries to Europe this season, ending July 31, ubout 332,000,000 bushels against 335,000,000 bushels the previous season. Reports of another cargo of 100,000 bushels of wheat Toledo chartered for Chicago, New receipts, Minnesota and Duluth, 370 cars vs., 185 the same period lost year. Receipts at primary points again 1,250,000, and clearances were large, ubout 714,000, apparently had no effect on the market, there being more than an offsett by Brad- streets report. Showing on increase in stocks East and West of the Rockies ,100,000 bushels, with a decrease of 112,000 bushels, in the stocks of European afloat, trading was largely by professionals, New York, St. Louis and Chicago, who sold freely on the early advance. Corn—The weather again played a very important part In the corn market. Rains were reported In Iowa and Nebraska, and prices sheaved a loss of 1% to 1% cents a* the opening, but was soon run up *1 to 1 cent on buying for outside account, conwniEslon houses being good buyers. On further reports of good rains from private fources, the market became weak and gradually declined, losing all of Its early advance. A very large cash Duslness was transacted, about 400,000 bushels with prices under September. Oats opened weak with prices a shade off and heavy selling by elevator firms, principally May option, the market de clined, showing loss at the close of % to 1 cent Itecttpts—'Three hundred and' one cars were quite large, overrunning the esti mate some 40 cars. Provisions opened firm and active, but with no change In prices. Hogs at the yards were consid erable under the estimate and prices were 5 to 10 cents higher, there being a pretty fair shipping demand.

Prices started irreg ularly and weak, but soon after the first trades were mode it became noticeable that orders to buy were doming from the portion of the corn belt that had not been 'avored with showers, whilst the districts that had had rain were selling. Not. a great deal of rain had fallen during the night, but Washington predicted further Showers- which brought out more corn and produced a weak un dertone. There was a rally during the early hours of the session, which carried prices back ever a portion of the opendng decline.- September com-opened tirm at 45% to 15%, sold*"between G% from yester day.. A largt/busdnoss was done In cash oorn; at prices averaging half a * cent vor yesterday. Ooats—This market was without inde pendence of action. Longs were selling, but, it was due only to the weak and de clining wheat and corn markets, that they were doing so. September oats clos ed 1 cent under yesterday. Cash oats were steady at unchanged prices. Provlsions-Wlth an improved tone of hogs, a light run on them oml an ad vance in their price, product was enabled to present a better feeling today than yesterday. 1 was-a dull, spiritless mar ket, however, prices giving .way to a slight extent before the close bn account of weakness In grain.

New York, July 31.—Liverpool declined s points and gained L This market lost e points and molv than rmra trwwt Im. points and more than regained the loss, *ome of the Improvements being due to reports of less favorable accounts from 601 ,ar S*ly attributable, We think,to the fact that the shorts gen ially seemed disposed to cover. Hlx and J cents for August here means a price to the producer that mokes cotton grow- *ng a matter of ttttle profit, and yet It thay be that with a continuance of favor, able crop advices, the lowest prices may hm, have been'seen. To sell cotton at ruling prices here Is taking the chances that there will be a continuation of all tne bearUfi features that have recently Prevailed to bring the market down to its present level, and as many things may happen, such as adverse crop reports, a tfitlemim of the tariff matter and a re vival of business confidence, any or all c * which might occur within the next bkty days, it would seem best that the o«a*m should be a little further ad- vaneed before attemplng to put the mar ket below the figures touched today. However, we must watt upon Liverpool fe usually the case, to determine Whether prices hare receded as much as prew-nt crop prospects would war rant. With any encouragement from *n*r*. we shall improve, but without their ■upport we sballhave to drag along until ?• mere favorably from that mar- k«t.
