■n THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. Ii fMARKETS SUSTAINED PRICES SHORTS uneasy in these POSITIONS. Liverpool Wu BUghly Better in the Spot Department—Fu ture! Weaker. Liverpool showed a slight Improve ^SKnt | n the spot department. Sales were flret reported at 5,000 bales, but tiiey were later Increased to 7,000. Quotations 'were advanced 2 points to S.01. The futures market was disappoint ing In that prices at the opening were unchanged to 1 point down, when they were due to come 1 to 2 points higher. h'e* York opened 1 to t points low er which was slightly better than due on rabies, but Immediately recovered 10 yesterday's closing figures for tho near-by deliveries, while the later posi tions were adversely affected by the favorable weather and crop news. The government s acreage and con dition report la sill) undpr discussion by the speculative trade, and by those who have nothing to lose other than nmflti on paper cotton. The acreage figures did not suit a considerable number of this class. They were expecting figures much higher, and were probahly In the mar ket for a sharp decline, hence the kick. The New York Sun voices the senti ment of these high figure people as follows: "There Is a genera! bellof In the trade that'the acrenge Is much larger than that of last year. And If we consider the fact that prices are (15 a bale higher than then. It would seem that there la a pretty powerful Incen tive to Increase the area. The South ern Cotton Association asks people to believe that the Increase Is only about 13-1 per rent. The average member of the cotton trade here balks at this lose." The Southern Cotton Growers Asso ciation la a representative body • of Southern planters. Its facilities for gathering news relative to the num- Iber of acres planted and Its condition are equal to those of the government or those of any of the private statisticians who furnish the trade with figures which they claim are more accurate than the people who plant and grow the cotton. Disappointment Is mainly responsl ble for the statement that the govern ment report falls far short of the actual number of acres planted, and hnd tho figure* been placet! at 30,000,000 acres this crowd would have been satisfied, for then cotton would now be Belling at loc or less. However, Secretary Wilson Insists his figures are correct, and that there has been no Juggling In making up his report. Commissioner of Agriculture T. C. Hudson, from 750 correspondents re porting to the state department of agriculture, shows a decrease of 1 per cent In acreage and condition .85. The summer positions were advanc ed In the afternoon, due chiefly to un easiness of shorts, and the new crop sympathised. NEWS AND GOSSIP Of the Fleecy Staple. SPOT COTTON MARKET.

Lf* Private Wire to Gloert A Clay. New York, June 7.—Price broken) came In to July and the local crowd bid up the market. The market Is dull and listless and no feature to the trading. Wilson bidding up the market; also Norden. The Journal of Commerce says: "The day was without feature In the way of an Increased trade, although many buyers were shopping, and were par ticularly interested In seeking out soft spots that do not appear. Beyond the willingness of a few manufacturers of heavy brown cottons to shade prices that are already below a parity with other goods that are as freely made, there does not appear to be any pres ent weakness in the market as a wlsole, and market leaders are begin ning to speak openly to the efTect that the trade will be very large for the last six months of the current year." New Orleans, June 7.—Our traveling representative wires: "Sun Antonio, Kennedy, Cuero to Flatonlo—Fine crop, clean and well worked; commencing to need rain badly; very dry, hot and windy. ^ "Rockdale, Cameron* to Waco—Aa a whole good, but fields getting foul In places. "South Texas—Must have rain In ten days or crop will suffer seriously. "Opening prices were lower In sym- ithy with disappointing foreign mar- •t. No aggressiveness Is manifested by either side, and hence price changes are narrow and featureless. The weather map Is again favorable. Slight rains have occurred on the At lantic coast. Otherwise the map la dry ni.d warm. The western forecast Indicates fair and cooler weather for western Texas and generally unsettled conditions for the balance, with probably showers In Louisiana and Arkansas. There appears to be some unrest among July shorts, for thkt month displays considerable strength and gradually working higher. Private Wire to Ware & Leland. New York, June 7.—Price was said to have bought about 17,000 bales of July, and th- ring >t.u\\ • .is that It was short covering. He is still bullish on the fall positions. Hoadley Is said to be a bear on the new crop months. The South covered shorts to some extent at one time, but this waa re garded as merely taking profits. The South Is Inclined to sell on bulges. Cotton opened steady at about prices expected on Liverpool cables. * Riordan and Schllt good buyers of July. Schill big buyer of October and De cember. Commission houses Inclined to sell around the opening. Market does not act especially strong, and believe it could be sold on hard spots. Looks like the rally Is over. Every body who bought a little cotton on ad vance, Including H. Wilson and Schlll, are now trying to sell out New Orleans, Juno 7.—Practically no rain Is shown over tho cotton belt on the weather map. * Temperatures are high. The net stock of cotton In New Or- h-ans is 65,744 bales, against 7ft,S36 at this time last year. The amount of cotton on shipboard Is 31,694 bales, against 44,262 bales lost year. Edited, by JOSEPH B. LIVELY LITTLE STOCK IS FOR SALE MARKET CONTROLLED BY IM PORTANT BULL INTERESTS Leading- Issues Were Practically Accumulated at Much Lower Levels' By Private Leased Wire. New York, Juno 7.—To a very large degree the uncertainty visible on the previous digs disappeared from to day’s dealings. The market was broad er and more active, and tho advances both larger and better distributed than they have been at any stage of the upward movement which started a week ago. While the flavor of profes sionalism was still uppermost, so gen eral a rise could hardly have occurred without assistance from more Impor tant quarters. The Judgment tenta tively expressed on the previous days that the larger Wall street Interests were actively enlisted on the side of rising prices, was confirmed by every thing that happened during the day. The pront-taklng of yesterday and the day before had considerably Improved the market's technical position. It had k*j>t down any i-xrrsslv.- tendency which was the danger If plunging oper ations had been encouraged. In this morning’s trading, therefore, the mar ket was well situated to resume the advance that had been partly Inter- rupted on tile preceding day*. There was plenty of evidence In the stock market today that.lt was held In absolyto control by important bull in teracts which had accumulated practi cally all the supply of leading Issues at much lower price levels, and that the bulk of the stock accumulated had been permanently lodged and was not for sale around current quotations, .si. Paul was the leader and advanced to 179. Governments unchanged. Other bonds strong.
