DAILY COTTON LETTER
New York, Aug. 7.—It was generally ex

the two days’ holiday, would hardly re-
unond to the break In Near Y’ork, while
that market was closed. This expectation
was realised, but the market Itself failed
to hold the Initial advance and Inter

of January nnd December, on which holders
attempted to sell October, but the Open
failed In Its purpose, nml whenever Del
was offered the entire market broke a
rapidly. Th** simple fact --r Ho* matt*
that the crop Is doing very well atul Is re
ceiving so much moisture thnt drouth, the
only development to be feared nt this sen-
s«n. Is very far nwny. It Is now the time
jvhen Southern marketers of cotton
begin to hedge their cotton with sale
futures, and It Is difficult to see liow the
market ran stand this selling at 10c a
pound. It looks very much aa though there
was too much cotton In prospect to en
courage buying, ami either one of two
