The sentiment in the wheat pit was ex-
tremely bearish, outside markets being

weather favorable for the growing crop.
Under these influences the market opened a

NEW YORK, May 7.-COTTON-Market
and after the call displayed still further
strength under firm Liverpool cables,
smaller receipts, the continued strength of
New Orleans and renewed indications of an
uncovered short interest in the near
months. May opened at 10.S6c and sold up
to 1O.S9c, against l0.7sc, the closing price of
for the season. July reached l0.16c and the
general list at this time was net 64l3 points
higher. The new crop months again showed
relative easiness as a result of the favor
able weather and the better tone OF pri-
Vate crop advices. The bull pool sold mod
erately at the higher levels of the morn
Ing, feeding out MAY carefully with appar-
ent intention of preventing any more seri-
Gus stampedes of nearby shorts. Under this
Influence, in connection with the favorable
weather, the whole list eased off, selling
down to-a level of . points higher to 3
points lower. Following this, however, the
market was again rallied by buying based
on the sensational developments in the Au-
gust option at New Orleans, which sold up
80 points from yesterdays close. The in
terror movement was rather bullish, and
this also helped the ad"ance, which car
ried prices back TO about the best of the
day and the market at the close was very
steady at "A net advance of 36l6 points,
that being within a point OF the best on
July and August. while May was within 8

time past. the quality of most of the stuff
was rather on the common order. Buyers,
