The bears in cotton have had an uncom-
Portable week. Everything seemed to be
working their way; the receipts were SO
heavy as to apparently justify the most
extreme crop estimates and the know-it-
all class of commission houses had given
the verdict that there was no chance for
cotton to advance for a considerable time.
1t is, therefore, not surprising that the
bears should be no little disconnected by
a very decided improvement in the tone
and temper of the market, with heavy
increase in the volume of trading, the
market ruled very firm, and was at
times quite strong. There was a net adj
vance of about Is points; May ellie ana
August, 6.20c. The main cause of the adj
vance is the fact that Liverpool is short
of actual cotton, having delayed buying
up to requirements in the belief that
prices would go lower as soon as the full
extent of the crop was recognized; for
those who predicted a crop of near II,
100000 bales, also predicted a further de-
cline of 30 to 100 points. But other markets
have absorbed very much more than had
been anticipated, and the belated buyers
now find that most of the crop has gone
and that cotton is getting scarce. AS sta
ted here repeatedly, there does not appear
much danger of any material decline, but
the extent of possible advance is very
uncertain 1t is not a fortunate time for
Queer Is concerned, for a rise now would
exert a stimulating effect upon the next
acreage.
Wheat ruled pretty strong, especially
for May which sold as high as 9S34c, and
closed at 9794c an advance of 2s4c; July
advanced nearly &c and closed S54c. 1t
was reported that the Chicago bull clique
have contracted to ship abroad most of
their holdings, and when all that wheat
moves out the position will become still
more alarming to the shorts. One thing
in the situation does not look reasonable
and that is the enormous discount, now
12c on July There are few if any reasons
where July does not sell as high as May,
and the amount of new wheat available in
Chicago on July contracts will hardly be
enough to justify more than very mod
crate discount on that month.
All the other markets were strong.
Corn advanced fully 1c, closing at 901sc for
May. oats gained nc, closing 26c. Provis-
ions sill continue to display signs Of
working up to a permanent higher level.
Pork advanced 421ac, and closed 5000;
ribs. $3.50. Advices on both grain and
provisions are decidedly bullish in tenor.
