The cotton mar ket opened steaay with a decline of from 2 to 3 points today. The easier tendency was due to bearish private crop advices, a favorable report on Texas weather and a disposition on the part of the scat tered longs to liquidate in advance of the government report Tuesday. New Orleans interests were moderate buyrs. and. fol lowing the call, spot merchants rendered support promoting a slightly firmer tone. . Th* 4 Liverpool market was ’osed.

HAYWARD A CLARK’S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS. June L Weather de velopments continue favorable. The Journal of Commerce gives a fa vorable rejMirt on Texas, and adds that there is ample moisture to last for sev eral weeks. The report on Oklahoma is not good, saving stands are generally poor. There are, however, some excel lent private reports coming from several points in Oklahoma. The market opened somewhat lower, hut soon recovered to yesterday's closing level and held steads around these fig ures. interests seem awaiting the bu reau publication on June 4 at 11 o’clock, and trading is small. The future busi ness here will be suspended Monday. Interest In the market is very light. The repeated manifestation of bullish power in New York keeps much selling in check, and with the world full of cot ton and the favorable weather and crop developments, confidence in purchases is lacking. The market is in a waiting at titude. hull interests counting on a spell of drouth, and bears desiring to get near er to a reliable assurance of a large crop.

June I.—There were losses of to 1c in wheat his morning on the z r<ains in Kansas and Missouri, cou pled with the bearish news from India and the heavier shipments from that country to Europe. Longs were sellers and there were short lines put out early. Corn sold to Lc lower for the de ferred months, while -July was unchanged. Oats were l ß c to ’ 4 c lower and slow. Hogs were fractionally better at the yards and the provisions market was strong in the pit. Closing prices in the wheat pit. al though reacting and advancing to from the lowest levels, showed losses on the day of 1•% to l 7 s c. General rains, where neded, was the depressing feature. Corn closed showing losses of to 2c in the various options. Heavy selling was the main depressing factor. Oats were off to IVsC. 'l’he market failed to readily absorb the offerings and the market sagged off with the other grains. Provisions were featureless and with out much change for the day.

June 1. —Old crop apples are a thing of the past for the present season. 3’he warm weather is resulting in a strong demand and higher prices for lemons. A fair demand prevails for California oranges. No Florida oranges in the market. Limited quantities nf grapefruit selling promptly at satisfac tory values. Home-grown strawberries are in light supply. Shipments from a distance of good quality selling readily at fair prices. The season is now on for cul tivated blackberries and dewberries. The crop is large and quality fine. Florida peaches are in liberal supply at lair values. Early varieties of Geor gia peaches are now finding their way in to the market, but the grade, as jet, does not warrant their sale at high prices. Pineapples are quite plentiful and sell ing at values low enough to warrant a general and liberal consumption. Bananas are high with receipts suffi cient to meej requirements. The demand has been good for cher ries; in fact, sufficient to take all the re ceipts at good prices. Quite a good many Florida canta loupes are now coming to the market. The quality, generally speaking, is poor. Watermelon receipts are liberal and of good quality. The season is now in full blast covering all kinds of garden vegetables. Old and new Irish potatoes scarce and high. Within the next few days local truckers will no doubt be able to meet trade re quirements wdth these goods fresh from the farm. Egg rec< ipts liberal, w’ith consumption limited and demand weak. Dive hens are dull at lower prices. A fair demand prevails for spring fries at good prices. The best grades of table butter selling at fair values. A decided accumulation of cooking butter is now in the market and will have to be sacrificed in order to effect its sale.
