COTTON.
NEW YORK, July 9. —The cotton mar
ket on the operating today displayed con
siderable strength, showing in the first
figures quotated a net gain of 4 tu 12
points over the previous close. The
strong Liverpool cable gave some support
to our market, which caused some «>f the
steadiness. The big traders who were
freely sellers yesterday were god buyers
on the opening. However, very little cot
ton was for sale.
The weather conditions reported not* so
favorable over the Atlantic and Central
sections, with light scattered showers
over the eastern belt.

NEW YORK, July B. Carpenter, Bag
got & Co.: The Memphis Commercial-
Appeal says: Too much rain over the
cotton belt acted as a' deterrent to the
normal growth of the plant during the
past week, and in many parts of the belt
did actual damage that may not be over
come during the remainder 'of the sea
son The growth of the plant was not
up to normal except tn the western por
tion and in South Carolina in the east.
Cultivation was retarded in all parts of
the belt, and grass and weeds have
gained a foothold in the fields of the cen
tral and eastern portions, rendering their
eradication a serious problem. The lack
of proper growth In the remainder of this
portion of the belt adds further to the
lateness o's the plant. In the west the
plant made excellent progress, especially
in Oklahoma and Texas, where splendid
eondltions of the previous wee.k continued
Rainfall was more than was needed in
this part of the belt, but caused no dam
age. The plant is fruiting nicely, but
generally one to four weeks late, varying
with location. -The crying. need of the
ci op is warm weather, with plenty of sun
shine and a cessation of rain. Damage
from boll weevil ravages so far has been
Inconsequential. No reports are made of
the cotton army worm
Profit-taking has been heavy today.

In the south Atlantic and cast Gulf

ports on condition as of July 4, as follows:
Acreage probably been decreased about 8

< NEW YORK. JuHt .B.—There was fair
buying by the public today nt the open
ing of the cotton marke-t, with the result
that first prices were 5 to 9 points higher.
The cables were also firm and several
points better than due. There was heavy
selling by several brokers at the outset,
but this was more than offset by the
demand. After the call the activity in
creased with prices from 9 to 10 points
higher than on new crop positions.
At noon the market was under heavy
selling pressure by some of the big pro
fessionals and commission taking profit.
This caused a weak tone to develop upon
tlie market, and a downward movement
in prices, carrying quotations 3 to 11
points below the opening figures. The
late weather forecast reported favorable
conditions over the larger portion of the
belty
At the close the market was steady,
showing net losses of 4 to 8 points below
the final quotations of Saturday.

Our market advanced to 12.40 for Oc
tober in early trading, but was checked

of 25 points from New York The gov
ernment daily weather forecast of local
showers for the central and eastern
states gave the market another bullish
impulse, which carried October to 12.45.
Heavy realizing by New York bulls theta

Pell & Co. are reported large sellers.
The'weekly'weather report tomorrow is

Industrials Lead in the Drop.
Trading Active. But Tone
Shows Weakness.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, Jftly 8 -Nearly all the im
portant railroad arid industrial stocks
sold at sharp recessions at the opening
of the stock market today, trading re
flecting a disturbance of speculative po
sitions by the showings of the bunk state
ment on Saturday. There was an ab
sence of demand, but after fifteen minutes
a steadier tone set in and some of the
issues rallied. Reading and Lehigh Val
ley acted in unison, declining % from
Saturday's closing. Amalgamated Copper
and United States Steel common were ■%
lower. American Smelting was >,A lower.
Canadian Pacific was one of the few is
sues making a gain It opened at 266%,
a gain of %.
Southern Pacific. Baltimore and Ohio,
Erie and Pennsylvania were unchanged.
Union Pacific lost %.
The curb was quiet. Americans in, Lon
don were listless. Canadian Pacific in
London rallied,
A heavy tone prevailed in the late fore
noon and losses ranging around 1 point
were sustained in a number of issues.
Boston and London were prominent sell
ers of nearly all the active Issues, and
particularly Amalgamated Copper and
United States Steel,
Speculation sentiment continued bear
ish throughout the afternoon, and further
declines were sustained in a number of
issues. The copper stocks suffered to
the greatest extent. Amalgamated Cop
per. Utah Copper and tlie American
Smelting all yielded over 2 points from
Saturday's final. Boston houses wore ag
gressive sellers, many attributing the
bear movement there to Thomas W. l.aw
son.
The market closed steady.
Governments unchanged; other bonds
steady.

CHICAGO. July 8 With sharply lower
prices in the Northwest and longs still
liquidating in Chicago, there were price
losses early of %c to *Bc. The buying
power was absent, save those who were
short and having profits. The Ohio July
report as wired by King makes the wheat
i prospects 43, against 45 in June and 84 a
years ago.
Corn was unchanged to %c and %c
lower and longs selling freely’ The Ohio
July report makes the condition of corn
compared with an average of 77 per cent
against 89 a year ago.
Oats were %c to %c lower, with the
Ohio prospect 98. against 95 in June
Provisions were sharply lower on sell
ing by longs and the putting out of short
lines.
Wheat was weak and sharply lower to
day on continued tine weather and good
crop prospects over both winter and spring
wheat belts. Final prices showed losses
ranging %c on December to %c and %c
on July. A good reaction from bottom
prices was caused by short covering and
good buying by strong houses.
Corn was weak on fine weather and va
rious good state crop reports. •
Oats were under pressure early, but re
covered strength on shorts covering
Provisions were weak early on longs
liquidating, but recovered later with the
grain market.
