Bag-' [got & Uo.: While Liverpool was not as | I good as uue on our close of yesterday, | still the buying was rather good and pre- ; ve , n , a decline. j I'he opening was quiet, but after open mg there was evidence of some of the <ld bulls buying a little cotton which .< used short covering, bringing about a I few points advance. While there is lit i tie spot demand heard of. in a general I way. some of the spot houses sax- spni i ne ™ are buying on the decline. lhe course of the market at the m<»- I mem depends on whether mills are will- • ing to buy around present prices or await • further developments over the belt with I prospects of buying at a lower level. The Waldorf crowd have been good buy- • ers today and there is some spot demand I reported, which is stimulating market. I rhe Journal of Commerce states that transactions were reported yesterday in print cloths at concessions of l-16c to %c. but the quantities involved were not con sidered large enough to establish new basis of value Calles was the largest buyer after the opening.

Aug 20 Hayward & Clark: The weather may shows cloudy in south ’Fexas. west Texas and North Carolina. Eair elsewhere; s«»me showers in south Texas. Few’ isolated showers in rest of the belt Temperatures lower in Oklahoma and northwest Texas. Weather very favorable. Indications are for un settled, cooler and rain coming on western states- in near future. Cool wave ap proaching, also rain indicate*! for North Carolina Partly cloudy to fair else where. Houston, Texas, receives 12,515 new bales today against 6.138 last .'ear. The New Orleans Times-Democrat says: over Sunday a little ra’n fell in Texas ami cooler weather with rain is promised in that state. Nevertheless the contract rings encountered a distinct re actionary spirit which suggested the pres ence of a burdensome short interest and a scarcity of speculative sellers. All of which should interest the talent in view of the bearishness of most operators, of the relative strength of the actual stuff, of the expanding new bale movement ami of the scarcity of ocean freight room. Either futures are too lbw for spots and • must climb at least 50 points during the near future, or spots are too high for fu tures and the basis must break. Bulls confident) expect pessimistic re ports from the Atlantlcs within a day or two. Bears expect rains and cooler weather in Texas. Exporters seem to be finding cotton enough for the filling of their August commitments out of Galves ton. but say that new’ business is danger ous because of the high basis they must now pay.

Rag got & (?o.: There was an easier tone in • the cotton oil market this morning, al though the volume of business was small. . September sold at 6.64 on the curb yes terday afternoon, but after opening at 6.53. declined to 6.51 under moderate liquidation. Lard was lower, and while the steadiness in cotton might have been expected to exercise a steadying influence on values, crude oil was said to be offer ing more freely, and cotton crop ad vices received by cotton oil houses were considered favorable. ♦ niton seed <»u «iuotatTons: ~~22ZZZZZZZ i Opening.
