The Morning News Office,
Friday, July 3.
There were sharp declines in the cot
futures markets to-day, New York
ns of t 16 to 28 points and New Or-
® an! , i6 to 39 points. Liquidation ap
pears to have the upper hand of the
market, and since it has shown a de-
UninS tendency sellers have come into
, arge evidence. Some think the de
clines are a trap set to catch the un
‘v liy who go short in view of the
p ,‘ ro ng statistical position of the ar
and the fact that the bull clique
c t last notice day took all the actual
cotton tendered. This , they are be
lieved to have done for a purpose.
The turpentine market closed firm
at 47t 2 c, after a week of gradual im
provement from day to day. The ls
inancl was good, and reports were that
the entire of the offerings were taken
t the official price. Rosins closed fltm
at the advance on the week, and in
good demand.
The securities market was Inactive
all week, and business was upon a
very limited Beale. Details of the
diff' ient markets follow:
COTTON.
j4p o t cotton closed firm and unchang
ed from a level which prevailed all
week. Sales were a half dozen bales
for the entire week. There was also
very little activity in the f. o. b. mar
ket. The offerings of cotton from the
interior have been small.

COTTON_FUTURES.
New York. July 3.—The cotton mar
ket opened steady at a decline of 11
points to an advance of 2 points. The
declines were on the near positions
with August showing the greatest
weakness on the lower cables accom
panied by reports that short notices
were pressing on the market in Liver
pool. This brought out considerable
selling by tailers and very shortly a
decline of 20 points was apparent on
August with the late months showing
comparative steadiness in spite of the
fine weather as a result of uncertain
overcrop prospects and the government
report. Just before midday the mar
ket was rallied slightly from the lowest
by covering, and when the government
report arrived, September was selling
at 11.52 c and October at 10.36 c, while
August had recovered to 12.58 c. When
the government’s condition figures
were announced placing the average
for the entire belt at 77.1 against 74.1
the preceding month there was great
excitement and considerable activity.
The figures were Just about an average
of popular opinion and consequently
two factions were disappointed with
the result that early buyers on expec
tations of a condition around 75
liquidated while those who had
sold in expectation of a report placing
the condition around SO per cent, cov
ered. The immediate result on prices,
however, was a sharp break which af
fected chiefly the ,September and Oc
tober options. These sold down from
13 to 7 points in the first few minutes
with the near options neglected and
the later positions relatively steady.
Following this there was a rally un
der fresh bull support and talk of rains
in Texas, but after a partial recovery
the market turned very weak under
rumors that the bulls were unloading
and the market closed barely steady,
net 16 to 28 points lower. Sales were
350,000 bales, as estimated.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON MARKET.
New Orleans, July 3.—The spot cot
ton market was extremely dull, but
prices remain firm. Quotations un
changed.
In the futures market it was a bu
reau day from beginning to end. After
the opening, prices fluctuated freely.
When the government report was read
and the condition was jfut at 77.1,
against 74.1 last month and 84.7 last
year, the bears commenced to ham
mer prices. The Tong side regarded
the decline with some complacency,
as they believed that the report was
really bullish and would be generally
acknowledged to be so in a few days.
Any improvements in condition that
may have been made have been, en
tirely lost In the damage done by the
heavy rains and cloudbursts in Texas
district since Sunday last. At the
opening July was 11 points ddwn and
August 10, while the other positions
were at about yesterday's closing fig
ures. From the highest point the mar
ket gradually sold off, the list at the
close showing net losses of 19 points
on July, August 39, September 22 and
the more distant months 16 to 18
points.

H. Jt R. Co’s Cotton Letter.
New York, July 3.—Our market
opened with sales of August at 12.68 c
to 12.64 c and after selling at, 12.GS@
12.45 c ruled at 12.50 c at 16. The
weakness of the Immediate portions in
Loverpool due to large tenders at the
opening of the month of cotton not
ready saleable to spinners brought
about another running decline here on
summer positions. Buyers were few'
on those deliveries while on the dis
tant there was an active demand up
to the publication of the bureau re
port; This report was better than an
ticipated and led to sharp selling. Sep
tember was freely supported from New
Orleans receiving the major portion
of the dealing. The local temper of
the lead is decidedly bearish on the
Impression the bulls have bought the
market to a standstill and the crop
has improved since the report was is
sued. In last half hour the market
became weak on Southern selling clos
ing with the trade looking for another
break in Liverpool to-morrow. The
spot market was quiet 25 points de
cline.
Business and tlie Fourth.
The Cotton Exchange, Board of
Trade, and the banks will be closed in
observance of the “Fourth.” While
there may be some little trading on
the curb It will very probably be small
as many will spend the day out of
town.
