HAYWARD & CLARK'S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW YORK, July 18. Liverpool shows no signs of relaxation yet and spot sales increased again to 10.000 bales at 5 points lower. Our market eased around the opening on selling on rains in Texas, but soon ral lied on increasing unfavorable reports from the central and eastern states. Re ports from many sections complain about continued wet weather causing an unfav orable development of the plant, poor fruitage, poor rot stand and increasing insect damage. Professionally, however, the market shows one fact plainly, and that is that bullish news and facts are no longer picked up so promptly and turned to ac count by leading traders in New York as has been done in the past. New York eased repeatedly this morning indicating some prominent selling The into-slght for the week looks around 24.000 against 14.493 last year and 57,096 in 1910.

STOCKS STRONG BUT IRREGULAR Declining Tendency of Grain Makes Bullish Trade in Se curities—Undertone Firm. By CHARLES W. STORM. NEW YORK, July 18.—The upward movement which was in evidence late yesterday continued at the opening of the stock market today. Pennsylvania and Erie preferred showing the best gains, with advances of one-half point each. However, before the end of fifteen min utes' trading profit-taking came. Re cessions tn a number of issues which had previously made fair gains. Great Northern preferred, which opened ', higher, yielded %. A similar move ment occurred in Northern Pacific: United States Steel common opened % higher, but later lost %. The coppers were firm, both Amalgamated and Ameri can Smelting gaining % on the first transactions. Among the other fractional gains were: Southern Railway %, Mis souri Pacific '4, Lehigh Valley %, Read ing ' 4 , Baltimore and Ohio %, Erie com mon %. The curb was quiet. Americans in Lon don were cheerful, although the range of their activities was narrow. The coppers In London were firm, and Canadian Pacific was bought there on the weekly earning report. Price movements were irregular in the late forenoon, a number of issues making substantial gains, while others declined tinder moderate realizing. The copper stocks were prominent. Amalgamated ad vancing %. Steel was also in good de mand. moving up %. The leading rail roads ranger slightly under yesterday’s final. Price movements in the late afternoon trading were extremely narrow, consist ing chiefly of recessions from the mid day figures. There was no special fea ture to the selling, most of It being done by room traders, who put out fresh lines of shorts on the belief that the demand which caused the upturn came almost wholly from the shorts. The market closed steady. Government bonds unchanged. Other bonds steady. Stock quotations: I Last I ClosJPrev STOCKS— |High|Low.|Sale.| Bld.lCl'se Amal. Copper . 83%! 82%l 83 I 83 82% Am.
