NEW YORK. Aug 4.—Active selling
was in order at the opening of the cot
ton market to-day and first prices ;
ranged from .unchanged to 6 points
lower than Saturday's final. Heavy •
rains were reported over central and I
western Texas, and the selling was
based on this Information. Wall street I
led the selling movement and new low '
levels were recorded for the present
movement, with January dropping under !
the 11c level and other positions touch- i
ing 11c.
Business was somewhat light, owing i
to the holiday in Liverpool.
Riordan was perhaps the largest sell
er, selling about 16,000 bales of January
on the call. There was scattered buy
ing after the call, which was said to be
for certain spot Interests and Wall
street, the latter was supposed to be
short covering. The buying, however,
failed to stimulate the market and ev
ery position on the list Increased their
decline 1 to 8 points from the Initial
level. I^ater there was apparently a
good demand on the declne, resulting in
prices retrieving a portion of the early
decline, but remained 4@8 points under
the previous close, during the forenoon,
with the exception of August, which
rallied 3 points.
i'he map indicates increasing cloudlnesa 1
in Oklahoma, northwest Texas, western
Arkansas and fair in southern fcalf of
Texas. Central States and the Atlantlcs,
except unsettled in south Georgia and
Florida
The feature of the market during the
afternoon session was the strength of
August. Spot houses were aggressive
buyers of this option, resulting In a rap
id advance of about 10 points. Other
positions were under active selling and
prices were maintained around the early-
low level. The market closed steady
with August at a net advance of 8
points, while other positions were gen
erally 7 to 11 points lower than the final
quotations of Saturday.

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 4.—The most
Important development over Sunday is
that there was much rainfall in the Cen
tral and Southern States and that clear
ing and cooler weather has come to that
part of the belt which was threatened
with deterioration from too much mois
ture. Today’s indications are for in
creasing cloudiness in the Northwestern
quarter and probably showers in south
Georgia and Florida. Generally fair ev
erywhere else moderate temperatures.
Liverpool is closed to-day and will
open to-morrow. Political news from
crops Is more cheerful. Peace negotia
tions are apparently more definite this
time.
Our market eased in the early trading
to 11.11 for October, but there was a
rather strong demand for contracts, .
which soon steadied prices. Eleven 1 Interboro 1514
cents seems to be considered the point I ^ 0 , pref. ..
of resistance for the critical crop month
—August. With a better political feel
ing in Europe, more inquiry for fall,
shipments is a probability.
New York mentions covering of short
lines near 11c on the bullish argument
in Mr. Price’s circular.

MILLER-COTTER COTTON LETTER.
MEMPHIS, Aug. 4.—Following the
early break on Texas rains, the market
has been slow with business light. Spe
cial telegraphic reports to our bureau
show that, the northern two-thirds of
central Texas lias had rain sufficient to
stay. deterioration and set the crop to
growing. The south is still dry, but
there has never been a year when some
part, of tho State was not dry. With
fair weather in the Atlantic's condi
tions are ideal, and though the market
may temporarily remain steady at 11c,
we expect lower prices.

Cattle receipts fair with a better as
sortment this week than usual. Several
loads of Tennessee cattle were on the
market; one car of 1.200-pound steers
shipped from Wartrace. These were In
a class to themselves and were sold
promptly to the Atlanta packer at bet
ter than 7c. the top price of the week.
These were two-year-old steers and fat,
and the price was not considered too
high for the quality. This only goes to
show that Atlanta is like other markets;
they will pay good prices for good stuff.
Tennessee cows and heifers were fairly
plentiful and prices ruled steady.

ragged bunches in the pens, although
enough to supply the demand for this
class Prices vary according to flesh and
condition.
