♦ COTTON ♦
AT THE CLOSE:
Liverpool, steady, 1-2 to 3 points
up,
New York, steady, 1 to 3 points
down.
New Orleans, steady, unchanged
to 2 points up.
SPOTS: v
Liverpool, steady,, 3 points up. ,
New York, quiet, 10 points_down.
NewjDrleahs, steady, unchanged.
Galveston, steady, unchanged.
Houston, quiet, unchanged.
After a triple holiday the cotton
futures markets opened up at an
advance over last quotations, due
chiefly to higher Liverpool cables,
Including liberal spot sales In Liv-
erpool over the holidays, 35,000
bales having been sold. On'the ad-
vance no general demand seemed to
develop, and prices began to sag,
especially when it was learned that
rains over the belt had not been
more than needed. No other fea-
tures of importance developed, and
there was nothing to indicate any
falling off from the government's
condition report. Last prices were
close to the final prices of last Fri-
day, when the markets closed for the
holidays. New York was steady and
1 to 3 points down and New Or-
leans steady and unchanged to 2
points up. Liverpool futures closed
steady, 1-2 to 3 points up.
July opened in New Orleans at
9.00 bid, a gain of 3 points over the
close of Friday, and the final quota-
tion was 9.08, a net gain of 2points.
In' New York the opening price of
the month was 9.35, a gain of 7
points over the close of Friday, and
the close was 9.26, a net decline of
2 points.
Among Southern spot markets
price changes were few. Houston
was quiet, with middling holding at
9c. Sales were 348 bales spots and
50 bales to arrive. Galveston was
steady and unchanged sales 2801
bales spot and 100 to arrive. New
Orleans was steady and unchanged ;
middling at 9c. few York was qui-
et and 10 poiiits down. Liverpool
was steady and 3 points up and sales
were 12,000 bales. «
Receipts of cotton at Houston yes-
terday aggregated 2243 bales,
against 4615 bales the day before
and 360 bales yesterday a year ago.
Shipments were 1697 bales.
Rains falling in different parts of
the State have been of some benefit
to the crops, but in many sections the
moisture was inadequate. In South
and Southwest Texas more rain
would be welcofed.

Bay City, Texas, July 7.—The fear
entertained of the likelihood of a
shortage in the water supply has
been dispelled owing to the timely
action of th^ Carmlchael ccynpany In
allowing enough water to pass
through the flood gates of the dam
at Austin to keep the river at a stage
sufficiently strong to run nearly all
tHl pumping plants In this part of
the rice belt.
In addition to what the Austin
people have done copious rains have
fallen within the past few days at
many places on the river, and es-
pecially In the San Angelo section*

To the Public:
Quite a number of complaints have
been made recently of hogs being
kept in the city which every one
knows, is not only violating the city
ordinance and liable to be fined, but
is a public menace to the health of
the city, and 1 hereby give each and
every one notice that our officers
will prosecute all that are not com-
plying with the law, so please re-
move your hogs from the city and
avoid trouble.—83-tf.

'"pHE next best thing to "swatting the
fly" is driving him away. The sweep-
ing breeze of an electric fan will keep flies
from sleeping infants (or adults) and from
exposed food on dining table or in kitchen.
A G-E fan costs but a trifle to operate
and insures cooling breezes and protection
from flies. We have sizes and types to suit
every requirement.
