Copious showers fell In practically all
sections of the state durlns the week
and materially, benefited growing-.crops.
That portion of the cotton crop which pf 1nn « ACK ^

a decided Improvement and is now grow

The crop as a whole, however, Js small

many sections cannot recover. Rice,
sugar cane, peas and potatoes are In* a
very promising condition. The output of
pe&ches is below the overage, much 'oss
ha-vlng been occasioned by rotting of the
fruit; the quality of the crop now being
shipped is generally excellent.
The general market still hangs on .Texas
and \ u rains, but It seem* to be reduced,
to North Texas, and until that section
is relieved the trade Is willing to go slaw
oh the short side. Meantime much Inter
est Is attracted to Kansas and -Missouri
where they have the “highest tempera
ture* In the corn belt ever known.
“If they should strike down into Texas
what would happen to the price of cot
ton?
“Would it go soaring with the mercu
ry?’'
The local market remains unchanged.
We have heard of no sales today, sell

NEW YORK. Julv 24.—The cotton mar
ket opened weak and down 4 to 8 points
under a small movement to sell out cot
ton purchased from 20 to 30 points higher.
A bad break In the July option, weak
Liverpool cables. Southern selling orders
and reports of more rains In the South
west, were the main factors upon which
the depression was based. Fearing that
about all the weak long cotton had, been
disgorged rlnce the present downward
movement set In. conservative traders
were disposed to anticipate natural reac
tion In the Immediate future, and low
prices on weak snot after the opening.
The government chart indicated light to
hard rains In Southern Texas ai)d in
parts of the cotton belt, but the forecast
pointed to clearing weather conditions
pretty much over the entire Western belt
tonight and tomorrow. Crop accounts
were mixed to such ar) extent that the
trade was confused at- to the actual totate
of affairs on plantations. Official reports
led to the belief that settled weather
has at last come to the relief of the
South Atlantic states. New York shipped
1,600 bales to Europe today, making total
shipments for three days clos? to 20.000
bales. Longs were cheered up roipewhnt .
the fact that official
limited trading.

broke sharply after yesterday's decline
here and the market touched the low point
of the week for all options. .The most
tsvere break was In July, the least in
March showing that pressure came from
spot cotton—not a change In news on the
crop. At the opening the decline amounted
to 4*io 12 point*, with August weak and
January rather steady considering the
break In Liverpool. Considerable cototn
was sold on the decline, which left tho
tone weak and unsettled throughout the
morning. At noon the pressure seemed
to have been removed and the market
recovered to a level above that o( last
night. The trading was more active than
In yesterday and considerable cotton
bought on tho break. After the profit-
king of the past few days, there were
made tho position very attractive for a
turn. Uncertainty over the disposition
of August and fear that notices will bo
Issued with no clique to take the cotton
had a pressing Influence. But there was
no change In the general crop situation.
As the bureau stated In Its general sum
mary. the drought still exists In the great
er portion, of Texas where the cotton Is
critical. The crop Is not doing well in
a large part of the counfry, and while
Improving In other parts, the outlook Is
not such as should Justify short sales.
It’s merely a question of time when the
position of the crop will become known.
The market is likely to be unsettled for
some time, and the uncertainty of tho
situation is- such we cannot advice pur
chases for a bull market, but beltove cot
ton Is. a safe purchase on all breaks

; most needed have worked to lho ndvsn-
’ 1 togc of the bear clique, and we have been
witnessing of late a general decline In the
market, which Is entirely unwarranted.
It is well kxnown that certain Southern
short Interests nre responsible for this.
The facts do not warrant lower prices.
On tho contrary, It is unreasonable to
expect a full crop In that state, while
there Is little doubt of a short one. In
fact, tt may lie sold that but for tb.o per
sistency ot -certain Houthern shorts who
baye been misleading the trade by hourly
dispatches of good and general rains all

nessed n much hlrher market. Later on.
It will toe found that the trade has been
deceived, as to Texas especially, when re
ceipts begin to start. Receipts at the
•ports today were 3,C00 against 5,700 bales

New York Stoek Letter.
NEW YORK. July 24.-The dullntas and
the feeble fluctuations in prices In today's
stock market reflected the flagging of
speculative Interest which is usual after
active sp^cu'atlre movement has expended
Itself and has been followed by reaction.
By this morning the fact had become
quite obvious that yesterday’s violent re
cover)* In the prices of stock* had been
principally based on tho lapse in the grain
markets, rather than on any actual news
from th# grain crops, The consequence
of this revised view of yesterday’s move
ment was some renewed ml*glvlngs leK
yesterday’s reported benefit from rains
had been overestimated. These misgiv
ings were accentuated by published estl
7.60-41 tmates from exhaustive inquiry showing
heavy damage already Inflicted upon *he
\9 u ”l corn crop. The sharp opening declines.

exceeding these at the opening, and ex

tions of the railroad list.
The tendency of stocks to rally from
declines showed the growth of a feeling
among the speculators that, svsn conced
ing substantial dsmsge to tho corn crop,
the decline already effected In prices of
stocks has ifalrlv discounted this damage.
Another party argues that prices of stocks
are still unduly high compared with pre
vious years, notwithstanding the wide de
clines that have occurred from the year's
high level. Thu* there Is room afforded
