COTTON DROPG ON BEARISH WEATHER Good Crop News Also Selling Fac tor—Good Demand Appears on Dip—Easy Cables, NEW YORK, June 19.—Influenced by bearish weather advices and easy Liv erpool cables, the cotton market opened rather weak to-day, with first prices at a net decline of b to 11 points from Thursday's close. After the call prices continued to decline and soon the net aggregated 10 to 18 points, New crofis were the weakest. Around 9.15 the market run into ltos orders all around. ['here was no slfn urln% the first half hour of liquidation by the larger bull interests. Trading as a whole seemed to be in small lots and what liquidation was In evidence it seemed to have been for the smaller trallers. ~ The decline was helped along b}g bear ish crop advices from the Jastern States. One local house received the following from Charleston, 8. C.: *Fine rains have fallen throughout t}* sec tion in the fast week, which hav¥® been very beneficlal to crops. In Ndrth Caro lina conditions are not favorable, but in South Carolina as far as I have trav eled conditions are from fairly good to perfect.” Another wire from Memphis =aid that telegraphic replies from South Carolina, Georgia and Texas indicate percentage condition for the two first States about maintained since May 25. in the latter much improved."” | Although the week-end statistics were regarded as bulllsh, showing that spin ning interests had absorbed 182,000 bales during the week, against 166,000 bales during the same period last year, the list continued on its downward path throughout the afternoon session, and at the close the market was easy, with prices showing a net decline of 14 to 18 points from the final quotations of Thursday.

Pre ( titicn was abundant and all ques ticit of drouth is eliminated for the i B dicatiens are for generally fair in e Western and Central States; cloudy v.ith probably some scattered showers n the lastern States, but the tendency is toward clearing over Sunday. liverpool was steady on old crops, but weak and 5 points lower than J:xe on new crops, in consequence, very like ly, of the favorable weather develop ments and improved crop accounts. The Dallas News of Wednesday con tains a long list of crop rePorts quite optimistic in tenor and indicating the recovery of conslderable land for cot ton. Whether this late planted will make much is a question; ordfnarily cot ton planted after June\lo has not much show for yield. The market declined about 15 points in the early trading, but met with strong demand around 12% cents, which price seems to be considered attractive, due tn the uncertainty in regard to yield outturn with the irregular start the crop has had. It is also expected that the trade which lquidated early pur chases around 13 cents may buy at the half-cent decline. 801 l weevi] reports are verly bad from North Loulsiana. Some planters are really despondent over the outlook and inclined to abandon cotton culture as too hazardous. Trading during the afternoon settled around 12.57 for October, with the mar ket quiet but steady.

According to private dispatches early relief may be expected in those States. But even with ample rains, it may be doubted whether the damage can be re paired with an average date of frost. Not only so, but accounts differ greatly as to the benefit derived from compara tively clear weather in Texas. Never theless most professionals are inclined to think that the next Bureau report will show distinct improvement.. As a matter of fact weevil stories are both ering the bears more than anything else now. “‘(‘lose observers attached considerable importance to yesterday's rise of nine sixteenths In consols. This may have been due to expectations of a compro mise with regard to Ulster, or to bet ter news from Paris, where high finance .5 been chilled by home politics and the tensfon between Turkey and Greece. In any event, such an advance in the premier security is not to be believed. “The markets will soon have to deal with the July liquidation. No dramatic developments are to be expected in New Orleans, but almost anything may hap pen in New York. In the one case the course of the Hquidation will hinge upon the course of spots; in the other the predominant house will determine the fate of the tender feet, as the Roman emperor used to save, or damn, the prostrate gladiator, by a twist of the thumb.” 'N.

Local traders sold a little, but cov ered when they found a good demand at the decline from mills and from those who believe in ultimately higher prices. There was no apparent liquidation by the leading long interests. Some further downward reaction is probable if the weather continues favorable, but advan tage should be taken of dips to buy a little cotton, as there will probably be many a scare during July and August.
