Cotton Futures

New York, May S.-ShortS again this
morning had things pretty much their
own way on the cotton exchange, and
in forcing prices much lower,
to the basis Of 7.41 for July, the lowest
level touched since the first of the year.
liquidation of ocal and outside
long interests occurred on the break,
the foreign element also figured
as a liberal seller of the summer posi-
.tions. The market started about
steady, with prices off 5 to 10 points on
near months and unchanged to l point
higher OF far months. Soon after the
call there was a rally of several points
of profit taking, but before the close of
the first hour July had fallen to 7.41,
while October settled to 6.95. Noon
found the market in a weak, ~listless
condition, with the bears in control.
Later, there was a sudden change for
the better and a subsequent strong up
ward movement, on a scare of shorts,
the appearance of good orders from the
south, the west and Wall street and on
Iclaims hat rain was badly needed in
parts of the central and western belt.
Estimates for small receipts tomorrow
added to the confusion of the shorts
land stimulated fresh buying. The
shorts were harassed by fears that the
English market would be quick to take
advantage of the strength here. The
market was finally steady with prices
10 points lower to 2 points higher.
