New York. June !•.—The cotton

was*not until this level had been
reached that enough bull support
«me In to hold the market from de-
lining still further. The narrow con-
dition of market Is due to in a great

Some think the drought in Southern
Texas Is causing considerable damage
and also the excessive rains In the At-
lantic states, while others view that
no damage had yet occurred. Traders
here are still playing for rain In south-
ern Texas to break the market when
they expect to get back their cotton.

to the election next fall Henc
still felt the necessity foLthe invest!

be retroactive, but confessed that he
had little hope iu that direction. "The
