DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 9 The weather
map shows cloudy weather over the en
tire belt, except fair at a few spots In
south Texas. General rains In the south
half of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and
the central and pastern states, except In
North Carolina, which had little rain. The
precipitation was heavy In Alabama,
Georgia and South Carolina According
to private reports some good rains fell
overnight In central Texas, and our trav
eling man also says that good rains had
fallen overnight In central west and
northwest Texas Government records
show ten stations in Texas with an aver
age of 40. Temperatures average for
Texas 94, and for Oklahoma 78 Indica
tions are for clearing weather in north
west Texas and unsettled and showers in
southern half of Texas, central and east
ern states North Carolina si likely also
to get the needed rains As expected,
Liverpool weakened materially, futures at
one time showing a loss of 18 points'
spots 13 points lower Our market lost
a few points in the first trading on the
weakness In other markets, but otherwise
offered more resistance to decline than It
has done for some time Support seemed
to be based on the idea of possible crop
damage by continued and locally excessive
rains in the eastern half of the belt.

Grain Report—Market Gen
erally Dull But Firm.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, Aug 9.—Heaviness in the
copper group caused by an unsatisfactory
situation in the London copper market,
was the feature of the stock market at
the opening here today. Later they ral
lied.
The general tone at the outset was good.
Reading was % higher and gains of %
were scored in Union Pacific, Lehigh Val
ley and American Can. Westinghouse
was particularly strong, gaining 1%.
Consolidated Gas moved up %.
There was a rally in American To
bacco, which bad been sold vigorously, and
a recovery to within a shade of Thurs
day's closing resulted. At the end of fif
teen minutes trading in a number of
leaders, including United States Steel, St.
Paul, Amalgamated Copper and Atchison
were ranging a shade higher than their
yesterday s final prices. Canadian Pacific
opened % off, but recovered. The curb
was quiet.
American railway shares in London
■ were steady above New York parity.
There was profit-taking there in Canadian
Pacific •
A waiting tendency was shown In the
late forenoon, although a number of the
leading railroads and industrials moved
up fractionally. Gains ranging around %
wjere made in Steel, Consolidated Gas.
Union Pacific, Lehigh Valley. Canadian
Pacific and Interboro.
Metal. Reading and Westinghouse were
the prominent features, advancing more
than a point each.
The market was sluggish in the after
noon and prices moved irregularly with
a reactionary trend. Declines from the
best prices of the day ranged from % to
1 point.
Stocks closed strong.
Government bonds unchanged. Other
bonds steady.

NEW YORK, Aug. 9. —Carpenter, Bag

says: The course of cotton prices will
be governed by weather and attitude of
largo trade interests.
The New York Commercial says: Cool

that present crop prospects justify 12
cents.
Cotton continues to seek lower levels
Some Wonderful crop report of improve
ment must t«e in the hands of those who
continue to liquidate.
The trade is looking for the next bu

Carpenter. Baggot & Co. say: “Con
sidering the strong sentimental influence
which rains in portions of the states of
Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas have had
on the market, we hardly feel justified in
expressing an opinion, but some of the
features induce us to continue bullish in
our ideas and to feel confident that ulti
mately higher prices must rule.”

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 9.—Hayward &
Clark: The weather map shows cloudy
over entire belt, except fair in a few spots
in south Texas. General rains in north
Texas, also west portion of Oklahoma,
Arkansas, central and eastern belt * Rains
were moderate in central states, but
heavy in’Alabama and \tlantics except
North Carolina. Indications are for con
tinued cloudy, showery weather in belt;
rain indicated also for southfern half of
Texas and North Carolina.
Reliable advices from San Antonio,
Texas, reads: “So far as the cotton c.op
of south is concerned it has de
teriorated greatly and cotton that was
expected a month ago to yield one-half
to three-quarters per bale, is not expect
ed now to make one bale to four acres. 1
understand, however, they have had rains
in north Texas and Oklahoma and that
conditions there are better. The high
temperatures we have had in this pari
of the country and our lands mostly being
pf light sandy soil went to pieces within
a short time.''
The New Orleans Times-Democrat says:
Bearish success is broadening bearish
sentiment,-which in turn is robbing the
ranks of the bulls of manj worker*-*.
What the end will be no man knows. It
is a fact too potent for argument that
rains all over the belt, with the exception
of portions of south and southwest Texas,
have improved, the crop promising to a
tangible extent, and the low price people
are now claiming, whereas, they feared
drouth and high temperatures on a
watered plant, high price people must
fear rains and moderate temperatures.
However, history alone can reveal the
influence on the outturn of the original
handicap of a late start in- poorly pre
pared soil.
Meanwhile there is a surplus of con
tract sellers and a dearth of buyers, and
the brakes were applied to yesterday’s
decline, not so much because there w< re
men in the market with faith in the price,
but, bcause the parity between America
and Liverpool had so greatly w idened as
to purchases on this side seem at
tractive, without much regard to the
probable future course of the market.

Commission men look for a fair run
of cattle for the next few weeks, but
present receipts do not indicate that the
quality of range stuff is as yet up to
standard.
Lambs have not been coming so free

season. A few loads of Tennessee lambs
were on the market this week, and sold at
from % to •% lower and were considered
high for the reason of their inferior qual

Why Do Rich Men

Investing is really the same as
saving. A rich man always in
vests just as much as he can
spare. He does that because it
has become a habit with him,
and he realizes that he never
would have become wealthy if
he had not begun the habit. ’

CHICAGO. Aug, 9. Wheat opened
steady in t”ne and abount unchanged in
price, prices quickly yielding %®%c on
good selling and lack of suport. A report
of less demand for the American hard
wheat was the weakening influence.
Corn was unsettled and irregular with
September a shade higher and the de
ferred months fractionally lower.
Oats were better all around on shorts
covering.
Provisions were unchanged and the
market was featureless with trade small.
Wheat closed with losses of % to %c to
day and there were reces ions in the price
of corn of % to %c.
Oats declined ’ io ’<<■ and there was
considerable reaction from the bottom
prices. The government crop report,
which was given out after the close of
business, wa.: construed by the trade as
a bearish document.
Provisions closed lower with trade dull.
