New York, June 2.-Llverpool had a
strong opening after the three days holi
day. and there was further strength in
our market in the early dealings, but the
governments weekly report issued at noon
showed marked improvement in the crop
conditions in some sections, and caused
heavy realizing, " a consequent moder
ate reaction in prices. worms and boil
weevils are complained Of in many coun-
ties in Texas and the crop is said to be
fully three weeks late, but since this
report was made up, there have been dis
astrously heavy rains in Georgia, the Ter
ritories and northern Texas which viii
probably be reflected in the next weeks
report but will not be taken into account
in the monthly figures to be published on
Thursday.
1t is quite noticeable that many large
operators who have been --e

friendly to the new crop ope.ons, and are
picking them up on every reaction, mean

any occurrence would cause ner-
Sousness in that quarter, would probably

New York, June 2.-The first effective
turn against the bears which has been
accomplished since the present prolonged
decline in prices set in was effected to-
day, and that without any striking deyel-
cpment in the news to effect values On
tho contrary, there was a demoralized
slump in a group of securities which were
sympathetically affected by this peculiar
breakdown CERTAIN Canadian markets.
1t was the serenity with which this break
was regarded and its failure to induce any
further liquidation in the market which
impressed the bears with the ACCESSIBILITY
Of protection their position by covering
their short commitments. During the
last hour Of the trading the demand from
this source became somewhat urgent and
st. Paul and Missouri Pacific were lifted
more than 2 points over last nights level
Rock Island, Southern Pacific, Atchison
Louisville and Nashville, Wabash preferred
and a number of such influential stocks
besides rose about two points over last
night in the late dealings and the mar
ket closed very active and strong. Pre-
monitory symptoms of trouble have been
visible in the Canadian group of securi-
ties for some time and seemed to have
had their inception in the rumored trou-
bles Of the Dominion coal and iron com
panies and in an excess of speculation on
the part of Canadian shareholders in
these companies. Yesterdays sharp de-
olines in some of these stocks induced
demand for additional margin by New
York brokers and forced liquidation of
some of these accounts today. Besides
these disturbing influences the market had
to face the probability of shipments of
gold on Thursday of an aggregate of
"a, 900 900 although only a part of this
sum was '4etually engaged today. A
slump in the London copper market
caused a drop of points in Amalgamated
and was an effective check to the early
hardening tendency of the market Lon
don resumed trading after the holiday to-
day and was disposed to buy stocks here
as it was reported that London was short

Especial to News and Observer
New York, June 2.-There was fur
Their advance in new crop options today,
with prices at the highest point of the
season. October sold at OFT, with a fairly
active business, but with more or less
profit-taking on the advance The weekly
report at midday indicated further i'm
provement in the crop, but the showing
was not at all flattering. Prices broke six
to eight points, but there was no decided
weakness, owing in a great measure to the
general belief that the government figures
this week will be very low The short
interest is getting pretty well covered up
and new crop options are now reaching a
point where it is more dangerous to buy
cotton than at any time before this sea
son. In the event of a very poor bureau
report a further advance is more than
likely, but it is not thing to work for
by buying cotton. AT 9Ac the situation
is very different from that below nine
cents, and with any Improvement in crop
prospects, as it more than likely there
will be no short interest in the market to
look after offerings. Cotton is still coming
in this direction and the course of July
and August is such as to furnish ample
evidence of the unwillingness of the hold
ers of spot cotton to do anything but
stand upon their short contracts. We
would like to see a good break in this
market before again taking the long side,
and on any advance this week we would
sell out long cotton.

(By the Associated Press.)

New York, June 2.-The dry goods mar
ket has not shown as general signs of inn
provement as was hoped. Buyers are con
seIivatiye and the high prices which are
still being asked have acted as a handicap

determined than ever to secure advances

more general.
NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, June 2.-The cotton market
opened firm at an advance of to 6
points and following the call, while not
particularly active, showed still further
strength particularly on the new crop
months under frmer cables, apprehensions
that the floods in the Southwest would
work down into the cotton country and

Under these influences the new crop was
advanced before midday to a new high
level for the season, September selling
up to 1922, October to 9.77 and December
to 9.62 Following this. however, the
market turned easier under realizing
There was more favorable turn in the
weather and it seemed to be thought
that the floods were not likely TO reach
the cotton country in sufficient volume
to work any material injuries. Exports
for the day were heavy, amounting TO
1925 bales, but the port receipts turned
out heavier than originally estimated. be-
ing 1904 bales, against 1861 bales last
year, while the into sight for the week
was estimated at around 81 ,0U0 bales,
against $4,000 last season.
The better accounts from the dry goods
trade had little influence in view of the
low prices at which the finished product
is selling compared with the price of cot
ton and it was argued that while the
government report of tomorrow viii prob
ably reflect known conditions the
present level of prices discounts the dam
age. The spot markets of the country,
also, while firm show little business and
the spot sales in Liverpool amounted to
only 5000 bales. Influenced by these and
