Where Quality is Always Higher Than Price " Financial and New York Cotton New York, .July 25.?Pronuonced weakness developed in the cotton mnr k?:t tili? morning as a result of decid edly lower cables, reports of good rain? in Texas and tin; gravity of the Austrian-Servian sit nation. The open ing was 18 to 2(? pofnts'iowor and from this level the market Bold off a couple j of points further in the early trade ar ter which it gradually hardened until at the eluse it was steady and 13 to IS points net lower. The Texas showers furnished quite a controversy as some private dis patches' reported rather general rain fall over that slate and Oklahoma, while others insisted precipitation was light. the government fore cast was for partly cloudy conditions in the western licit over Sunday a hot ter feeling took possession of the new market alter the early break, being? emphasized later by route foreign buy ing and a report that Servia would agree to the Austrian ultimatum un der protest. The late rally was also influenced by the report of a Memphis crop expert who made conditions 79.1 against 78 last month and 81.9 a year a?o. A southern crop reporting asso ciation was also rumored to have made conditions slightly under 7S.i.

First prices wore IX to 19 points off avi the market stood at a net decline throughout the morning,| although the initial declino was not widened. Tho close was at a loss of 7 to 8 points. Another influence against tho mar ket was the foreign political situation. This was supposed to have been part-i ly the cause of the poor Liverpool market. The weather bureau noted showers at only eleven out of the fifty. wcatho rstatlons in Texas und the' failure to conili m private account:; of almost general rains helped steady the' market. Dullish features of the morning, were two private condition reports front well known bureaus. One put the condition at 78.,"i per cent of tho normnl- ond the other .at -79.1 ne -com pared with the government figures of 79.6 for last month. "otton futures closed very steady.
