COTTON.
NEW YORK. June 1. —The cotion mar
ket opened steaoy 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
The Liverpool market was dosed.

trading has shrunk almost to an irreduci

no strength. It was traded in at the
opening at a decline of 14 points under
Wednesdav’s close, whereas July opened
unchanged. Liverpool reflected more con
fidence in the future of the market than
low price men on this side expected.
The weather continues good, and the
trade is more inclined than ever to look
for a relatively high condition figure on
Tuesday next. Nobody expects the gov

DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, May 31.—The Journal
of Commerce gives an unfavorable report
on Arkansas and Tennessee. The word
ing of the report clear]} shows the pes
simism which existed during the wet
spell. The reports wind up by saying
that there has been a great improve
ment during the recent good weather.
Liverpool is closed todav and tomor
row ’ r>
The weather map. continues to show
perfect conditions. No excessive temper
atures anywhere. <Joudy in west Texas
and Oklahoma; partly cloudy in east Tex
as; fair in the rest of the belt. No rain
Prospects are for cloudy and cooler
weather, probably unsettled, with show
ers in the northwestern quarter, increas
ing cloudiness in east Texas and central
states, and fair in the Atlantics.
Norden & Co. make condition 78. with
a decrease in acreage of 7 per cent.
<>ur market opened about unchanged,
and held well around these prices, with
trading small. Anticipation of a Tow bu
reau condition publication on Tuesday
next is the cause of the steadiness in
face of the good weather and still better
prospects.
; The unfavorable reports of The Journal
of Commerce show that the first condi
tion reports were made during a period
of general pessimism, and the trade
looks for a bureau abound 75. some fear
ing that it may be as low as around 70.
