States su preme court involving the boundary line between North Carolina ami Ten nessee which began at Murphy last Monday has been concluded and the next taking of testimony will take place at Asheville July 6.

New Orleans, La., June 27. The 'chief event in the cotton market this week will be the report df the crop condition by the department of agri culture . This report will take the crop j down to June 25, and will be issued on Friday Juy 1. Following it will be triple holidays in all of the future markets and there fore, indications are that this week will be none too lively, and that op erations Friday will be more of an evening-up sort than anything in the way of new undertakings. Up to Fri day trade will be probable hesitate about increasing their- lines. The three-day recess is due to the Fourth of July, which Liverpool is also observing, because that market does not want to be the' target for openings here after a long holiday. The weather of this week will have no effect at all on the coming condi tion report, as the report win be based on, replies from the cotton country under date of June 25. Because of this the weather while it will be of importance, - may not have its uual effect on values.
