Cotton market slackens as reports hint at crop improvement
Monroe June 13 1916 market notes show disappointment at the census bureau May U S mill consumption of 644000 bales and a forecast of continued liquidation. Weather and crop conditions may lift sentiment. US mills used 6 115 000 bales by May while stocks and spindles hold firm. Boll weevil spread concerns Texas and Mississippi, rains easing in places but moisture rising in others. July liquidation discussions and lower freight rates fail to spark spot demand in the South.
