Market. With Bullish Tendency,
Fails to Feel Heavy Selling
Pressure. x
NEW YORK. July 26.—The cotton mar
ket opened up from 4 to 12 points to
day. When October sold at 12.75 on the
opening call it uncovered a lot of stop
orders, which caused a quick reaction to
1i.70. Man' traders had fiixed that price
as their limit on which to take, profits.
; and there was also considerable pressure
from ihe room element, on the idea that
12.75 discounted a lot of crop damage so
early in the season. Fair)' m tlve sell
ing all around the ring followed the
weather map. which showed high temper
atures in the eastern belt, with no rain
in Texas.
It was estimated that fully 10.000 bales
were sold in the first half hour of trading
this morning, which was bought mostly
by spot interests and those representing
foreign interests. During the afternoon
trading the market was quiet, with July
under heavy selling. This option declined
14 points, with later accounts ranging
from 1 point higher to 8 points under the
opening. The market is purely a w-eather
affair, with every indication that it will
continue for another week, until after the
bureau report August 2 is out of the way,
with tendency of prices to work higher
with only slight reaction. Some of the
strength shown in the market is due to
the many anticipations of a bullish mill
taking
At tlte close th? market was steady with
prices ranging from 1 to 7 points above
the final of yesterday.

NEW YORK, July 26.—An irregular

stock market today. £ome issues being in
fairly good demand, while others were
pressed for sale at concessions that ’
caused substantial losses. General Elec- ;

Many of the important railway Issues,
however, showed pronounced strength.
Aggressive buying appeared in Reading
which rose to 158. and fractional gains
were made in a number of low-priced is

COTTON-
NEW YORK, July 27.—Strong cables
and high temperatures in Texas and Ok
lahoma caused a steady opening in cot
ton here today with first prices ranging
from 7 to 14 points better than the final
of yesterday. • After the opening a sell
ing wave prevailed upon the market.
This, however, had no bend-back in
prices, and prices firmly maintained the
highest levels of the year. The buying
was moderate and scattered.
