Price of Cotton Falls Sharply in New Orleans Trade

Liquidation of long positions and heavy short selling drove prices down 63 10 to 79 points. Better interior weather and lack of export demand hurt sentiment while short covering and occasional buying near week end limited losses.

Germany's reply affects market in July trading mood
New York reports that relations with Germany calm, aiding a tentative market upturn led by J. P. Morgan's recovery. Disclosures after an attempted assault on the financier, bomb threats to cargo ships, and early foreign dilution dampen sentiment. Demand for American war goods boosts sectors like steel, while exchange-rate weakness strains American debtors. A French 20 million credit uses bank acceptances, hinting at scarce new US securities. Missouri Pacific reorganisation and St Paul dividend drop signal broader market recalibration.
