MUCH MORE ACTIVITY FOLLOWED
 EASY OPENING.
Good Weather in the South, With Big Re ceipts Reported and Talk of Free Spot Offerings-E1nal
 Prices Low.

New York, April 27.-The cotton market was much more active. The opening was easy in spite of rather better cables than expected, first prices being points higher 10 3 points lower. The initial advance was on May, but that month weakened immedi- ately under scattering liquidation through commission houses in preparation for notices tomorrow, while other active months sold off under renewal of bear pressure based on good weather in the South, big receipts and further talk of free spot offerings:
 After a decline of or points under last nights finals, the market was rallied sharply by covering It looked as if about all the May liquidation had taken place that could be expected, and nearby shorts began to display uneasness owing to ru- mors that notices would be promptly stopped and reports of larger reduction in acreage than has been recently talked of.
 Selling up about 6@11 points over last nights finals during the middle session, the market weakened again before the close, however, on renewal of bear pres sure and liquidation and final prices. while steady, were about the lowest of the ses- sion, net decline of points to an ad- vance of 2points the gains being on the new crop months. Sales were estimated at 450,0o0 bales,
 After the close a private estimate was iBsued claiming reduction in acreage Of about IA per cent.

wheat are said to have changed hands dur ing the break. July slumped off in sym- ences entered into the situation and tended to create the prevailing bearish sentiment. One of the leading elements was sharp break in wheat prices at Liverpool. An other prominent factor was weakness at Minneapolis. Perhaps the most vital cause, however. was the excellent weather prevail ing generally throughout the United States Additional rain had fallen over the great CT part of the winter wheat belt. With were favorable for the rapid development of the fall sown crop. Toward midday buying of May by a leading oull gave some sup port to the market, but the effect of the buying was partially offset by rumor that the same operator was selling under cover. Later firTner tone developed on quite the improved demand was report from North Dakota to the effect that seed wheat was rotting in the ground Another reason was report from Minneapolis telling of improved demandsfor flour for export. The price of May held firmly around sse dur ing the last part of the session while July advanced to S3h QS3Hc. The close was moderately firm with final quotations oD May at ssc: July closed at sac.
 Lower cables and the break in wheat caused heavy selling of corn early in the session. resulting in considerable weakness. The selling, however. was general and not from any influential source. Seeing the leading bulls were not offering freely pit traders gradually curtailed their sales, and with a good demand from shorts the mar heI DeCdIne QulIe SITOnBs Sindll pTlInaTy re- ceipts had a bullIsh effect July opened hc lower at 45%c, sold up to 46 hc and closed at 46% a 6hc.
 Influenced by the weakness of wheat and corn commission houses were active sellers of oats early in the session. As a result the market had weak undertone. Later the market rallied buying by shorts. and closing prices were practically at the high est point of the day July opened a shade to hc lower at 28hc to 2S% @2S%c, sold up to 2S%c and closed at the top. Local receipts, 63 cars.
 The feature of trading in provisions was renewed liquidation of May holdings The market was weak throughout the entire day. Lower prices for hve hogs had a de- pressing effect. The slump in grain also had a weakening influence. Pork showed the greatest loss, the July option closing at a decline of 15@1Thc at $12.2 Lard was off 2ia p5c at $7. 25. Ribs were unchanged at S7 .12h.
