New Orleans, Aug. 9. War news was
again the one great factor in the cot
ton market, although the drought in
Texas still attracted attention and it
Lcaused enough buying to put prices up
nearly a cent a pound. ine opening
was at the advance and a wide im
provement in values was maintained
throughout the session, although there
was considerable .profit-taking at times
and moderate reactions were frequent.
At the best of the session the active
months were 90 to 95 points over yes
terday's close. Last prices showed net
gains of 82 to 85 points.
Favorable war news caused the high
er opening. The dry weather map and
the forecast of continued fair weather
for. Texas increased the demand after
the call and during the morning the
inquiry w-as further stimulated by re
ports of fresh successes by the allies.
These reports throughout the day kept
the undertone firm. Offerings by sat
isfied longs were constantly absorbed
by the new buyers.
Mill takings for the week were small,
133,000 bales, but bearish traders were
unable to make use of them because
of the excessively small into-sight
movement into sight for the week
which amounted to only 23,066 bales,
causing a decrease in the visible supply
of 110,889 bales.
Spot cotton, steady and unchanged.

New York, Aug. 9. Dun's tomorrow
will say:
"A heat wave of exceptional severity
this week, extending over a wide area
and for several days remaining un
broken, affected agriculture-and busi
ness adversely, causing further impair
ment of crop prospects and repression
of trade and industrial activities. Yet
the government's grain estimates while
unfortunately falling appreciably short
of previous calculations, still give
promise of large harvests and the pa
triotic spirit of many employes in con
tinuing at war work in spite of the ex
treme temperatures has tended to min
imize the check to manufacturing of
the most essential character. The re
sult of the intensive production efforts
stimulated by the special extraordinary
demands of -the period are seen in phe
nomenal outputs at a time when gen
eral and marked curtailment of opera
tions is usually witnessed and even
more noteworthy achievement in this
direction would be possible but for the
labor shortage and other handicaps.
