COTTON.
NEW YORK. July 23. —Cotton opened
active on the New York exchange today,
early prices ranging from 5 to 7 points
higher as the result of the strong cables.
There was little rain shown in the east
ern belt, but this apparently had small
influence. The steady buying of the Oc
tober option by spot interests was a
prominent feature in the initial trading,
serving to check bear pressure in the new
crop months. After the call the market
became very steady.

STOCKS.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, July 23. -Although price
movements were irregular in the early
transactions on the New York stock ex
change today, the tone of the market was
generally steady and the recessions that
occurred were for the most part gained
before the end of the first fifteen min
utes of trading. On the other hand, these
issues that opened at an advance gener
ally lost their gains in the initial trading.
The character of Washington dispatches
giving prominence to the forecasts of the
Stanley committee's report was used as
an incentive for some selling >f Steel
common, which was heavy, yielding % to
70-% and showing no rallying power.
Reading, which sold ex-dividend 1%
points at the opening, made a gain of %,
which was followed by a decline of %.
General Electric, after selling down a
point, rallied to yesterday's closing price.
Amalgamated Copper opened *% higher at
83%, but yielded % in the early trans
actions. American issues in the London
market were firm in tone, but narrow in
range.
The curb market opened steady.

BUYING CHECKS
COTTONSLUMP
Aggressiveness of Big Traders
Breaks Downward Trend
Due to Weather.
NEW YORK, July 22—Improved weath
er conditions over the cotton belt over
Sunday and weak cables resulted in ac
tive unloading at the opening of the cot
ton market today. First prices ranged
from 6 to 13 points lower. Following the
call the market became unsettled and
was from 10 to 12 points off from Satur
day's prices. Commission houses were
liberal sellers.
During the afternoon trading some large
professionals and a leading broker, who
usually represents a large spot interest,
showed aggressiveness by buying heavily,
endeavoring to bid the market up. This
checked the early decline, with prices ad
vancing 3 to 5 points over the first qiyita
tions. This buying was believed so be
caused by the many anticipations of a
bullish weeklj government report on
weather. The market is entirely a
weather object and will be governed by
any changes, with an absence of rain In
the eastern belt and good general showers
in Texas, would undoubtedly have a de
pressing effect upon the market.
Warehouse stocks in New Y’ork today
112,146, certificated 99,327.
At the close the market was barely
steady, with prices showing a net decline
of 5 to 10 points lower than the final quo
tations of Saturday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, July 22.-Weather
conditions over Sunday Improved greatly.
Outside of northwest Texas there was
practically no rain except in a few coast
districts. Partly cloudy to fair and warm
weather over the belt. Indications are for
part cloudy to fair weather, except un
settled and probably showers in northwest
Texas and Oklahoma and a few coast
showers east of Texas.
Liverpool showed further easiness with
futures at one time 8 points lower than
due; spots 5 points lower. Our market
declined in the early trading to 12.44 for
October, although the demand for con
tracts was good all the way down. Feel
ing is bullish: confidence In a large crop Is
lacking. The lateness of the crop, pros
pects for a bullish weekly government
weather report tomorrow, and a bullish
August bureau report give bulls the ad
vantage.
Foreign politics is the one dark cloud
at present.

NEWS AND GOSSIP
Os the Fleecy Staple
NEW YORK. July 22.—Carpenter, Bag
got & Co.: The Memphis Commercial-
Appeal says: During past week cotton
crop duplicated its performance of pre
vious week, and made progress west of
the river and lost ground east of the
river. Western progress was at least bal
anced by eastern deterioration and prob
ably outwiched. In some parts of the
section east of the river there was prog
ress, due to the scattered nature of the
rains. In large portions of states nearest
the Mississippi river, the precipitation
has not been excessive, and in these dis
tricts the crop made good advance, but
the deterioration in the portions where
rainfall was too heavy, added to the al
most solid deterioration farther eakt ami
overbalanced the gains. -West of the
river the crop made excellent progress,
especially in Oklahoma and Texas, where
the splendid conditions of the last fort
night was maintained. A drouth is
threatened in parts of this territory, but
so far no actual damage has resulted
from the dry weather. Plants are fruit
ing splendidly and are clean well culti
vated fields. Complaints of boll weevil
are few with very little damage so far.
Complaints of boll weevil are few with
very little damage so far. Complaints of
grass worms and kindred insects wore
made from some sections. Considerable
damage from this source has been report
ed from the east.

COTTON SEED OIL.
NEW YORK. July 22. Carpenter, Bag
got & Co.: The market was weak under
renewed liquldittlon, ami on the belief
that the technical position was weaker ns
a result of last week's covering movepient.
It bad also been hoped that the consump
tive demand would improve, but so far
trade has continued dull, and a good deal
of long oil has been thrown over on this
account.

Large Interests Accumulate
Bulk of Shares and Hold for
Better Prices.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, July 22. The stock mar
ket opened today with a display of pro
nounced strength, enarly all of the im
portant issues making fractional gains in
the initial trading. Union Pacific was one
of the most important of the early feat
ures, advancing % to 169%. Brisk de
mand was in evidence in many other rail
roads, including Erie, Reading and St.
Paul.
A significant feature of the trading was
the fact that the inital sales-were followed
by further gains. This was taken by the
traders to mean that the market had as
sumed a broader tendency.
Among the other early price changes
were the following: Steel common up '’j.
Amalgamated Copper up 1%, Erie com
mon up %, Reading up 1%, Erie preferred
up 11,.I 1 ,. American railroad shares dis
played a cheerful tone in the London mar
ket.
In the late forenoon large sales were
made in Steel common, checking the up
ward movement in that stock and a sim
ilar supply was noted in many other is
sues. The copper shares were in fairly
good demand. A number of specialties
were also active and strong. American
Tobacco moved up 6% and American Snuff
5 points and I’. Lorlllard 2 points.
Trading was almost at a standstill after
midday ami there were no price changes
of consequence. There was no demand
for stocks in evidence, and what few
transactions occurred reflected merely the
shifting of positions by room traders.
Canadian Pacific was heavy.
The curb market opened irregular.
