NEW YORK, Aug 28.—Cotton opened barely steady today at a decline of from 1 5 to 9 points, being affected by weak 1 cables and a generally favorable weather ; report. After the call further recessions i 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. Pell interests and ring speculators were at times reported to be good buyers, hut their demand failed to absorb the heavy offerings and prices during the afternoon session was played around the opening quotations. The market seemed to be stagnant, and , the prevailing opinion is that trailers are endeavoring to work prices to an even keel to meet the holidays, Saturday and ' Monday next. Following the adjournment I of the holidays the government will issue I its condition report as of August 25. which I many anticipations are to the effect that I this report will show a slight improve | ment over the previous month report in | stead of displaying its usual deterioration | during the most critical period of the cot , ton growing season. i Renewed buying by spot interests in i the last hour of trading checked the 'downward Movement and prices quickly regained the decline for the day and at the close the market was very steady with very little changes in prices from 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.

HAYWARD <S. CLARK'S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEU ORLEANS, Aug. 28. Early ad vices from Texas yesterday of accumula tion spot pressure were confirmed bv spot quotations in the late afternoon, show ing prices in the interior as much as '.4 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 insect damage reports would have re sulted. The map this morning show's fair over the. entire belt, normal tempera lures, rain only in a few coast districts. Our market opened lower, but the dis | position to cover prevailed, owing prnb | ably to the near approach of the holi -1 days. New York and this market will be j closed Saturday and Monday, and the bu reau report will be published Tuesday, which leaves only two davs more to ar range interests. As stated yesterday, sell ing is much more cautious now than it was at this time last year. The lesson of this spring has not been forgotten The market recovered to 11.03 for De cember, but on the rally there was too much hedge, selling and the gain was lost. RAJMGE IN NEW ORLEANS FUTURES.

Aug. 28 -Carpenter, Bug got Co.: The Journal of Commerce reports the following on conditions of the growing cotton crop nf Texas. Oklahoma and Mis souri: Texas—Drouth has been the chief cause of deterioration, and worms have in jured cotton to some extent. Compared with a year ago at this time, however, prospects are said to be considerably better and quite a few correspondents look for the largest crop in years. The weed averages a fair size and is gen erally fruited, and shedding is compara tively light lacking is general and in many sections bolls are opening rapidly. is plentiful. Many localities need good rains to insure a top crop. Oklahoma— Conditions in Oklahoma are exceedingly promising and show an im provement over a month ago. when the percentage condition was 7H.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. The plant is medium size, well fruited—in many cases heavily fruited and strong Insect damage is very slight, boil worms appearing in some sec tions. Cultivaion is good and picking will be general 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. McFadden, Gwathmey, Cone and Schill were best buyers after the call. Munds, Hartcorn and Martin were good sellers. McFedden and some of tht other spot people are buyers. Dallas wires: "Texas generally clear and warm. Oklahoma generally fair and warrti." Cotton freight rates from New York to Liverpool have been raised to 40 cents a hundred pounds. Some spot houses say that Texas has about 300,000 bales of old cotton stored away, to work a score on planters and buy new cotton cheaper. McFadden. Gwathmey and Weld con tinued to sell through the day. depressing the market. Pell brokers and ring spec ulators were buyers, but market has no snap. Some of the bear forces predict 10 cents. \Ve have the following wire from Dub lin. Ga., Hiurens county: "801 l worms devasting cotton in Laurens and sur rounding counties.” Following are 11 a. m. bids; October 10.84, December 10.94. January 10.89, March 10.97. NEW ORLEANS, Aug.x2B.-~ Hay ward & Clark: The weather map very favorable, after Monday's general rains the map shows fair entire belt; normal tempera tures; only few showers on coast. Indi cations ar»‘ for stationary conditions, ex eept protiably increasing cloudiness; some showers in north Oklahoma and north Arkansas; rainfall only Savannah 1.00, New Orleans .50. Houston says but for scarcity ocean freight room receipts would be larger. The New Orleans Times-Democrat says: While the remnant of the old bull guard is inclined to believe the bears are pushing their success too far. spot mar ket development proved a help rather than a hindrance to the price depressor yesterday, though actual cotton still holds above a parity with contracts except at Mobile, which quotes middling at 10" r. As yet Savannah has not become a heavy seller of spots for the simple reason Sa vannah receipts' of new cotton thus far amount to only 454 bales as contrasted with 24.546 last year. In Texas the sit uation is complicated by scarcity of ocean freight room out of Galveston The ex port demand is enormous in fact, it is limited only by the shipping facilities as it is asserted that fully half a dozen additional ships could be filled for Sep tember sailing out of Galveston. But the ships are not available and Toxas ex porters have begun to regret they op posed complete railroad rate parities be tween Now Orleans and Galveston from all of Texas, and are now seeking a re adjustment that will enable them at will to use New Orleans as w r ell as Galves ton (’’lose analysis clearly show's little or no thought now’ among short sellers of possibilities of a larger requirement and a moderate supply. The marketing season has opened up as though the re quirement will be large, otherwise less would be heard of strain <»n the shipping facilities on the heels of the absorption b\ consumers of the greatest supply on record.
