TUESDAY, JULY 9. 1912. NEWS AND GOSSIP Os the Fleecy Staple 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. Many say ring is getting along.

Following are 11 a. m. bids: July 11.88, October 12.18, December 12.26, January 12.24. The weather bureau predicts continued warm weather over the interior middle and southern districts during the week. In the south Atlantic and cast Gulf states the showers will probably be less frequent than during last week. New York wires Pell has sold about 8,000 bales so far. The New Orleans Times-Democrat re ports on condition as of July 4, as follows: Acreage probably been decreased about 8 per cent. Outside of Texas reports leave much tu. be desired, the crop being ex tremely late and. spotted as a rule.

COTTON STOMPS ON HEM SALES Profit-Taking by Professionals and Commission Houses Causes Drop. < 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.

Indications are for fair weather in Western states; much warmer in northwest portion. Cloudy with local showers in the central and eastern states. Our market advanced to 12.40 for Oc tober in early trading, but was checked by heavy realizing in New York and sell ing by straddlers on the large difference 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.

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.

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.
