Further Developments.

NEW YORK. Aug. 23.—The cotton mar-
;kt • opened barely steady today. First]
Ip* were 3 to 6 points off. Report of .
ap. .inent southerner claiming improve- !
ment in crop conditions in Atlantic coast
states caused selling. The weather map
was fairly satisfactorv . Cables vvefe ,
without much feature. At the end of 15 I
minutes the tone had improved and a]
geneial buying wave prevailed, which re
sulted in prices advancing 5 points in
most active positions.
1 The market has been very quiet during '
' todcy s session. There was short cover
; mg early, but offerings were so liberal i
that the (lemand from shorts showed no i
! stimulating effect whatever upon the I
market, (’able and weather reports re
flected nothing but bearish sentiment upon
the staple and cottbn was for sale on ral
lies. I arge spot inter* sts. Memphis and i
New Orleans, were reported io be sellers
here. The market was shown no support
only at times when shorts taken profit
'the Waldorf crowd and Wail street
| bought, but this had no depressing effect
and prices during the afternoon session
i were practically unchanged from the
| opening prices. The market in all prob
ability will show only small fluctuation
■ until the bureau report to be issue<l Sep
-1 tember 3.
i At the close the market was steady
I with prices I to 3 points above the final
I figures of Thursday.

scarce and the disposition is to cover ini
consequence of anticipation of a bullish :

It is rumored on the floor that the .Na

hollowing is from Cordill: “From Au-,

Port Gibson. Miss., reports first hale
’long staple cotton; only two days later
I than last year. Clinton, La., received its
first bale today.
The New Orleans 'Times Democrat savs:
Nobody got any satisfaction out of yes
terday’s cotton market. Georgia came in
as a competitor of the early sellers of
Texas, making a big splash with a very
few bales. Liverpool sent European
weather advices that might have served
bullish correspondents in Texas. High
ocean freight rates and the sold-up con
dition of freight agents’ books again
played a part in the day’s gossip. Profes
sional crop reporters kepi the mills and
the wires busy telling their principals
I how bad the Texas crop condition is.
i The spot markets continue toward lower
) levels, but contracts are still well below
a parity. Under the circumstances,
neither factions found reason to cheer
; In the opinion of some deep students of
| the market al the drift. values will he
shaped solely by the state of trade ami
the promise thereof, because, they say.
’even should the crop prove all that con
i servatlve bears expect, the y ield will
hai/llv exceed 14,350*000, which, in a good
trade year, as such things are now
gauged, would not be too much.
'The market is paying little attention
t<» the rumor that the National Ginners
will report condition around 76. The
prevailing opinion here is that the bureau
report will show several points under last
year’s August Sellers are
scarce, short covering continues and the

The curb was slow.
