I NEW YORK. Aug. 28.—Cotton opened barely steady toda\ at a decline of from a to 9 points, being affected by weak J cables and a generally favorable weather report. After the call further recessions took place. The demand was limited to •covering by the spot interests. This gave I the market a steady tone and a reaction of a few points prevailed. The selling was of a general character, while ring sentiments continue, bearish. Heavy realizing by McFadden and spot’ interest during the late forenoon trading caused the market to develop a sagging tendency in prices which receded back to the early range. Bell Interests and ring speculators were at times reported to be good buyers, but their demand failed to absorb the heavy offerings and prices during the afternoon session was played around the opening quotations. i Jhe market seemed to be stagnant, and the prevailing opinion is that traders ate endeavoring to work prices to an even keel t<> meet thy holidays. Saturday and Monday next. Following the adjournment of the holidays the government will issue its condition report as of August 25. which many anticipations are to the effect that this report will show a slight improve ment over the previous mqnth report in stead of displaying its usual deterioration uunng the most critical period of the cot . ton growing season. t Renewed buying by spot interests in j the last hour of trading checked the downward movement and prices quickly regained the decline for the da\ and at I the close the market was very steady I with very little changes in prices from I last night s close, the list showing irreg- • ularity ranging from unchanged to 1 to 2 points up on near months and 2 points | lower on distant positions' • Semi-weekly interior movement: I 1912.

Early ad vices from I'exas yesterday of aeoumula tion spot pressure were confirmed by spot quotations in the late afternoon, show ing prices in the interior as much as down and well below 11 cents. This was probably the cause of the very disap pointing Liverpool cables this morning where, instead of the expected reaction, futures showed a loss of 3 points. Weath er developments over night were favor able. It is feared if rains continue that inseel damage reports would have re suited. Tlie map this morning shows fair over the entire belt, normal tempera lures, rain only in a few coast districts <>ur market opened lower, but the dis- I position to cover prevailed, owing prob ably to the near approach of the holi ’ days. New York and this market will be , closed Saturday and Mondav. and the bu reau report will be published Tuesday, which leaves only two days more to ar range interests As stated yesterday, sell ing is much more cautious now than it was at this time last year.

Many localities need good rains to insure a top crop. Oklahoma Conditions in Oklahoma are exceedingly promising and show an im provement ovei a month ago. when the percentage condition was 79.3. Many cor respondents report the best prospects in , years, but the season is generally three weeks late and an early frost would do much damage.

Cultivaion is good and picking will be genera) by September 10. Rain fall has been plentiful, though some sec tions are beginning to need moisture. Missouri—Cotton is doing well with prospects for a good crop. The cotton market received some sup port from McFadden & Pell, brokers, to day, but ring sentiment is very bearish.
