COTTON AWAITS
BUREAU REPORT
NEW MiRK, July 25. Cotton opened
firmer on the New York exet/ange today
with prices advanced from 3 to 8 points.
New high records for the movement were
established in response to strong cables,
good spot sales in Liverpool, continued
buying by the spot interests here and dry
weather in Texas Early offerings were
I’Sht and scattered. While weather con
ditions east of the Mississippi showed
niucn improvemeni. the lack of rain west
of the river is causing apprehension and
this will become acute with reports of
higher temperature. Bea* pressure was
checked and with spot men steady buy
ers prices held firm after the call.
curing the afternoon trading the market
firmly maintained the phenomenal
strength and high levels made on the
opening. Even in face of heavy selling by
a certain large spot interest and local
professionals, who took their profits,
there was no depressing effect upon the
market. This selling only caused a few
points decline from the opening, which
were soon gained on reports from Texas of
hot winds and h’gh temperature. Some
shorts were good buyers, endeavoring to
cover on anticipation of a bullish govern
ment report.
At the close the market was steady
wita prices unchanged to 4 points better
than the final of yesterday.

HAYWARD 4 CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. July 25—Liverpool
made a full response with futures and
spots 11 points higher; sales 10.000 bales.
Following cable received: "Think higher
on anticipation bullish bureau and possi
ble excessive heat in Texas." Another:
"Looks grave; likelihood lockout card
room workers Lancashire within three
weeks; strong friction between parties and
general labor unrest make adjustment
difficult."
The weather map shows cloudy in the
Atlantic's and west Texas: fair elsewhere;
no rain of consequence except at Savan
nah. Indications are for showers in North
Carolina, unsettled and probably some
showers in west Texas; generally fair
elsewhere., private «reports from the
cientral- and eastern states show Improve
ment. and the dry spell is being actively
taken advantage of to clean the crops
where peeded. While most reports from
the Western startes are good, some men
tion the urgent need of rain to prevent
sb adding.
Our market opened about 6 points high
er. l>ut eased on the i.iverpool cables
suggesting strike troubles and the gov
ernment forecast of unsettled weather for
west Texas. The belief in a bullish Au
gu.sL.Uuxta-14,. expectation of a bullish se
ries of reports by The Journal of Com
merce. and fear of dry weather damage
reports are still causing a scarcity of sell
ers. There has not been much general
buying, however, bn these views and ex
pectations. and the market is technically
in shape to be affected by good rains in
the Western states, should such occur
Comparisons of mill takings tomorrow are
expected to be bullish, as takings last y ear
were only 104,000. The into sight for the
week looks around 26.000.
