Liverpool cables were much better than expected, the strength in that market reported to be caused from the? buying by jobbers In early sales, and sentiments be . coming more bullish on fear of bad crop reports.

TUESDAY, »J LAE 25, 1912. COTTON ®IET SHOWSDECLINE Good Weather. Lower Cables, and Selling Pressure Com bine to Pul! Prices Down. NEW YORK, June 24. Disappointing Liverpool cables and liberal selling, oc casioned by the weather map, affected our market on the opening with a decline of 3 to 9 points. Liverpool cabkes market declined in consequence of favorable weather ami selling orders from the con » in ent. During the first half-hour the market developed a firm tune on the report is sued by Cordill, wno is out with report on part of Georgia, not so good as ex pected. After the call, scattering covering and buying for the New Orleans accounts i brought about a rally, carrying prices 1 to 6 points above the opening. This rally only lasted a few minutes and the mar ket became weak, duo to the favorable weather condition over the belt, and the government predicting another week of good weather, and the market shown a backward trend with prices sagging back to the opening. The bears anticipate still lower prices before the close The buy ing power was moderate and scattered. Spot houses shown good demand for spots, however, there was very little for sale, the belief is that spots have almost petered out. At the close the market was steady with prices unchanged to 5 points lower than the Saturday’s close. Warehouse stocks in New York today, 135,378; certificated, 115,924. RANGE IN NEW YORK FUTURES.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS. June 24.--Weather conditions over Sunday were favorable Dry, warm weather prevailed in the east ern states, while light to moderate scat tered showers covered central and west ern states. The dreaded heat wave did not materialize; on the contrary, Wash ington predicts another week of favorable weather: generally fait with normal tem peratures. Liverpool was about 5 points lower than due, but promptly followed the rally in New York. Spots .3 points lower. An old farmer and ginner, over 30 years in the same locality, writes from a point in south Texas: “Crop immense; best of my rec ollection. Already many half-grown bolls and blooming all over, while growing continually. Already 2 to .3 feet high, No insects at ail. Not a weevil can be found. An English buyer who left for Liverpool Saturday offered 50 cents for a weevil during the whole week without getting any even after raising his limit to sl. Think of over five-million for Texas assured. Plenty of old cotton in our com presses yet, which people now think of selling." A farmer writes from Arkansas that a six-hundred-acre place which, on April 17 was overflowed, now has a good crop. The market opened easier, but was soon strongly supported and rallied, 'rhe fact that the least apparently unfavorable crop report even if unimportant, is being given preference over the volume of good reports and facts, shows bullish indica tions prevailing.

The principal buying is thought to be , from New Orleans, undoing straddles and I covering by uptowns shorts. Outside! business light. There seems to be a fair demand for ; new crop and hot much pressure to sell. Cordill is out with a report on part of ■ Georgia not so good as expected. Market is being bought on Cordill’s re port. Dallas wires: “Texas generally cloudy and cool; good rains in Weatherford, Dal las. San Antonio, Marietta. Quanah. Ar lington, Aledo, Strawn, Colorado City to Tonah, Greenville, Longview. Lancaster; scattered light rains east. Oklahoma, clear to partly cloudy and cool.” ’l’he Memphis Commercial-Appeal says: Rains over the western part of the cotton belt and clear open weather in the East made the past week a good one on the cotton crop. Progress was made, general ly speaking, both in plant growth and cul tivation, although, in plant growth, some what retarded, the former by unseasona bly low temperatures and the latter by rains. In the west, where most of the tains.of the week fell, the soil was al ready at a high state of cultivation and the fields were clean. In that part of the belt the week was unusually favora ble. as the moisture the crop received was just the one thing that is needed. All over Oklahoma, Texas and Arkansas, heavy rain fell, and good general rain fell in Arkansas, Louisiana. Mississippi and Tennessee. In all these states, cultiva tion is well advanced. In the east progress was made, due to open weather, although temperatures were too cool for the Best results of the plant.

STATE EXPERT SAYS COTTON CROP WILL BE SHORT THIS YEAR E. Lee Worsham, state entomologist, who has just completed a trip over the state, is not impressed witli Georgia’s prospects for a good, big cotton crop. Mr. Worsham took a decidedly pes simistic view of cotton conditions in general today, asserting that if the August influx of the cotton caterpillar proves as damaging as usual, Georgia will be lucky to get away in the fall with a 65 per cent crop. The recent intrusion of the army worm, however, Mr. Worsham said, had been chocked to a large extent. A. ('. Lewis, assistant entomologist, who kaf been in the field sim e the army worm appeared in south Georgia, reports the situation well in hand at Tifton. Bax ley, Hazlehurst. Pelham and Thomas ville. P. D. Willingham writes that the worm has appeared in Bibb uounty just south of Macon in large numbers.
