Aug 24.—Steady cables and absence of rain in Texas caused the cotton market to open unchanged to 6 points higher today. The market was quiet. During the first 15 minutes of trad ing was almost entirely local and re vealed little tendency either way. After the call the market was dull and featureless and prices in most active posi tions lost 7 to 9 points. Later, however, the weather map indicated some disturb ance which caused some hesitancy among traders to sell and prices showed a tend ency to rally a few points. The market became dull and less at tractive during the late trading of the short session. Pell interests and other in terests were said to be free sellers throughout the day. The buying was of a general character and prices were firm ly maintained around last night's closing figures. At the close the market w’as steady with October contracts 11.23, against 11.19 a week ago. while December was 11.82, against 11.26.

Wheat—No. 2 red 103%@105% Corn 79 Oats 33 CHICAGO, Aug. 24.—Wheat was %@%o higher early today on the strength in tha markets of the old world which was brought about by continued wet weather and unfavorable crop conditions in Russia and England. Shorts were buyers in this market. The smaller supply of ears in the United State* will, it is feared, cur tail the movement of new wheat. Wheat closed with gains of %c to %o over the close of yesterday and about %c above the lowest levels reached. Cash trade was small, with sales of only 50.- 000 bushels. Export bids were generally out of line. Sentiment xvas still bearish. Corn was %c lower to %c and %c high er and the feeling firm. Cash sales grads were 165,000 bushels for Eastern ship ment.
