I HAYWARD 4 CLARK'S DAILY COTTON LETTER New Orleans, Sept. 21. The weather map shows less favorable conditions; tem peratures in the northwest dropped to 46 in central Oklahoma and there were rath er extensive rains in the western and cen tral states. Weather conditions In the eastern states were favorable, normal tehiperatures, less rain. Indications are for clearing colder northwestern quarter, cloudy, rainy weather elsewhere. By Sun day night temperatures should rise again in the northwest. What Is feared most at present is the continuance w' rains. It would spoil the grade or lead to a rise in the basis, and as a consequence, a pos sible increased spot demand in order to secure the good grades. It will he re membered that such a rush to secure good grades was quite a market factor in the season of 1910-11. Liverpool came easier than due on fu tures. but spot prices are unchanged The market ruled cull and easy around 11.66 for December. Week end realizing by longs anil anticipation of warmer weather in the northwest by Monday caused selling. The market next week will depend upon weather developments over Sunday and would probably he most affected in case general raise should con tinue ami Increase the fear of a rise in the good grade basis. The latter part of the week preparations for the two gov ernment reports on October 2, both of which are expected to be bullish, max’ be reflected in the trading.
