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. Warehouse stock in New York today, 109.570: certificated, 97.263.

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.
