Hiews and gossip Os the Fleecy Staple I NEW YOftfc, July 29.--Carpenter, Bag got & Co.: The Journal of Commerce reports the following on conditions in Ten nessee and Arkansas: Tennessee—Prospects have fallen oft considerably from a month ago, when the condition percentage was 79. The plant is generally small and poorly fruited, while stands are spotted. Too much rain has enabled grass to become heavy, but recent favorable weather has given farmers a chance to clean their fields. A few sections are beginning to need rain. The season is two or three weeks late, but with a late frost a good crop can yet be made. There are prac tically no insects. Arkansas—Conditions are very spotted. Worms are quite generally complained of. and grass is heavy, owing to too much rain. The plant is small, but recent fa vorable weather has given it a good start and improvement is very marked. Fruitagie is satisfactory’ and fields are getting in a fair condition. The season is from three to four weeks late and pick ing will not ITegin until October 1. Cor respondents’ estimate of percentage con dition indicates that the crop has about held its own since our last report. Browne. Drakeford & Co.. Liverpool, cable: "Some realizing, chiefly conti nent. Weld seller." The Texas detailed report Saturday showed eighteen stations with maximum temperatures ranging from 100 to 104 de grees. In Oklahoma ranged from 100 to 106, three station in Little Rock district, four in New Orleans, one in Vicksburg and one in Mobile reported 100 or more. Dallas’ wires: "Texas —The panhandle partly cloudy, scattered clouds west; bal ance clear and hot. Oklahoma —Liglit rains in Weatherford, Perry and Onege: tlireatenig Oklahoma City and vicinity; balance clear and hot.” The ring crowd were free sellers in Hie early trading. The buying was gen eral and scattered. Anticipations are that the market will sell higher. Shorts re ported to be nervous. It is believed that commission houses, through the public, have again taken the bull leadership, and that the market is in for a further advance, says The Com mercial-Appeal. Few believe that the bull movement is over. J. F. Boyle wires from Little Rock. Ark : "Crop destined to prove smaller than 1910. I.ook for runaway market. Nobody in the South has any long cotton." This is purely a weather market; tech nical position strong; good spot demand; think market is going to work higher before government report Friday. Following are 11 a. m. bids: .inly 12.79, October 12.98, December 1.3.01. January 12.97. NEW ORLEANS, July 29.—Hayward & Clark: The weather map shows fair in the entire belt except cloudy in Arkansas, parts of Tennessee and the Carolinas. No rain except scattered light showers in Arkansas. .01 at Oklahoma City and .12 at Amarillo, Tex. Temperatures in western and central states high, but normal in Alabama and Hie Atlantic’s. The map indicates cloudy, with possibly some scattered showers in Arkansas, 'Tennessee, north Louisiana, north Mississippi and the Carolinas. Gen erally fair and dry elsewhere. Forecast for week: Texas, generally .air during the week from the Mississippi vallej eastward; fair during first half of the week, followed by local showers dur ing the second half and no decided tem perature changes. Further bad private reports from Texas saying very high temperatures yesterday, and crop going back rapidly. General rain needed soon. Houston reports five -new bales today, making twelve new bales to date, against 7,159 new to same 'date Hist year. New York says Weld selling in Liver pool causes easiness. Corsicana.

We added that we do not claim recoveries in all cases ami might make a failure, but that wo would take the chance, and trusted within three months to show such results that the pa tient would be in comfort and would have new heart and courage in the reasonable probability that recovery could ultimately be had.

A *»k for pamphlet COTTON SOARS; REACTS AT CLOSE Drops to Below Opening. But Advances Again on Reports From Texas. NEW YORK, July 29. —Considerable ir regularity was shown in the cotton mar ket today on the opening, first prices ranging from unchanged to 10 points lower and 2 to 5 points higher. The firtn Liverpool cables rendered support to our market combined with favorable weather over Sunday. There was evidence of disposition on the part of longs to take profits, but this was temporarily offset by a large volume of buying orders that had accumulated over Sunday. The demand was quickly supplied and the new crop deliveries re acted sharply. Reports of showers In Oklahftma and Arkansas last night with lower temperatures created the impres sion that the hot waye had finally been broken. Commission houses and the ring crowd continued their selling irp -to the noon hour, while the buying was concentrated. Large spot interest and big professional are said to be good buyers. Later In the afternoon trading further reports were in circulation of deterioration in Texas, caused by Hot winds and the continued dry weather and no prospects for relief at present These reports set shorts in a panic and through their aggressive ness a further upward movement pre vailed. with prices making a continuous rise, setting new high levels for the year. October went to 13.20. and December was carried to 13.26, with prices throughout the list 12 to 19 points over the opening figures. Many anticipations are to the effect that if a sudden change in tem perature and good rains don’t prevail over Texas, cotton will reach 13.50 by tomor row. , During the last hour of trading, heavy profit-taking and short selling by- the Waldorf crowd caused the market to make a downward shoot, after- reaching new high levels, 'of 'the year. At the close the market was steady, with prices 1 to 2 points lower to 1 to 6 points bet ter than the previous close.

The quieter tone was probably due to the good report of The Journal of Commerce on Arkansas and The Memphis Commer cial-Appeal that only central Texas is about to be damaged by drouth. Very unfavorable private reports came over night from Texas to the effect that tem peratures yesterday were very high and the crop is going back fast. The map shows cloudy weather in the northeastern quarter of the belt,, with light scattered showers in Arkansas and Tennessee: In dications are for cloudy weather, possibly some showers in the northeastern quar ter of the belt, also some light precipita tion and cooler in northwestern Okla homa Generally fair elsewhere. Official records show an average of 100 degrees for Texas and 104 for Oklahoma. No rain in Texas, one station with .20 in Okla homa. Liverpool cables that Bombay, India, reports crop prospects could hardly be better. Some liquidation, but spot de mand still good. New York reports Liverpool a heavy seller there and Weld & Co. selling in Liverpool. Our market opened at un changed figures, hut news of realizing by Liverpool in New York and some liquida tion bv leading bull interests soon caused a decline of 12 points. The selling, how ever. was well taken and feeling contin ues bullish. All eyes are on the weather in the Western states owing to Mr. Cor dill’s report suggesting widespread dam age in case rains do not come this week.
