NEW YORK. Aug. 17.—Decided weak cables resulted in the cotton market points lower* to 1 point higher today. The weather map showed very favorable weather conditions with Indications for favorable weather over Bunday, and prospects for showers in 4u U v an< * west Texas. This encouraged the bears and a heavy selling wave pre vailed which carried most active po sitions 7 to 11 points below the opening prices. The buying was moderate and scattered and very little support rendered to market. During the late trading of the short session, some local professionals and the ring crowd began to cover, which gave the market support, and-prices were car ried on an upward movement from the early low levels. However, the selling continued general, with the McFadden in terest the best seller. At the close the market was steady, with prices showing a net decline of 6 to » points from the final quotations of Friday.

HAYWOOD & CLAPTk'S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 17. —Liverpool was very poor during the first hour, with futures as much as 8 points lower than due, but rallied somewhat toward the close, probably on covering before Sunday, or intentional support to reg ulate the decline. Spots were 9 points lower. Our market declined In the early trading to 11.26 for October, but, being Saturday, the disposition was rather to even up, and covering by shorts rallied prices to 11.37 for October. Market prospects for next week de pend on weather developments and new crop movement. What is most feared Is that new crop offerings in the cen tral and eastern states will come in competition with Texas offerings, which are filling the limited demand.

Wheat—No. 2 red 105%@107 Corn 78% Oats 32% CHICAGO, Aug. 17.—Advances of %@%c were made in wheat this morning on further rains and prospects of a con tinued delay in the movement. The mar kets of the old world were higher on covering by shorts and the strength at Chicago. There was a disposition on the part of the holders in this market to take profits on the bulge. Corn was up %@%c at the opening, but this strength soon gave way to weak ness on the increased offerings and a lack of buying power. Oats were %@%c higher early, but sympathized a little with corn and eased off a shade. Provisions were irregular. Hogs were weak. The wheat market closed with net losses of % @% for the day and resting spots were around the lowest levels reached. Export bids from abroad were out of line and the cash transactions at Chicago were only 90,000 bushels and this was largely on milling account. Corn clised with losses of %@% and it was under some pressure during the lat ter part of the session. Oats were %@%c lower. Provisions showed but little change and this, too, in the face of an enormous cash trade on both domestic and export account. CHICAGO CASH QUOTATIONS.
