THE STOCK MARKET

During Course of the Morning, Hovy- ever, the Liquidation spends Most of its Force and Recovery of
 Prices Follows.

New York, June 22-The selling terday's stock market was carried over into todays early dealings and kept the tone of the market unsettled and weak, for time. During the course of the morning the liduidatjon spent most of its force. The bears day yesterday began to perceive that their operations were running ahead of the current of the market.
 When they began to cover their short offering was much diminished from the large volume of yesterday. The re- eovery in prices ensued. That the de, the limits of the professional short in- terest did not appear.
 The action of the market in rally was hesitating and uncertain and there of the dealings as prices recovered to last nights level and above South ern Pacific was the effective leader of had an immediate sympathetic effect on Union Pacific The rumors on We'd nesday of an intended early dividend declaration on Southern Pacific follow by the Baltimore and Ohio were varied today by reports of an intended offer Of authorized preferred stock of the holders at subscription prices which would prove of value as rights.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PRIVISI0Ns.
 Chicago, June 22. Profit taking by leading longs caused an easier tone in the wheat market today. final quota. lions in the September option being or 1-S. Corn was down 1-S@1-4. oats were 3-S lower Provisions showed loss of 1-2 to 10.
 The volume of trading in the wheat pit throughout the day was small At the opening the market was firm on fair demand by commission houses. chiefly because of the confirmation or the report that black rust had appear ed inethe wheat fields of Logan county, Illinois. Small shipments from Argen- tina which held the Liverpool market firm also strengthened prices here. Toward the end of the first hour, how ever. the market weakened on selling by local holders who were influenced by declines in the price of wheat at Kansas City and St. Louis. Later the market became firm on buying by ever. caused another reaction late in the day. The market closed barely steady. September opened 1-SQ1-4 higher at S4: sold between s3 3-S@1-2 and S4 Is and closed S3 5-S@3-4. July ranged between S3 1-403S and 83 7-S@84 and closed at S3 1-2. Clear ances of wheat and flour were equal to 22s,400 bushels. Exports for the week 1,7S0.000 Primary receipts were 249,- 900 bushels against 232.000 for the cor- responding day year ago. Minneapo- lis, Duluth and Chicago reported re- ceipts of 230 cars against 190 last week and 16S year ago. Light acceptances from the country caused a steady tone in the corn market early in the day but later the market weakened on gen. era1 selling based upon the expecta- ton of increased local receipts to- morrow. On the decline prices broke almost cent. Much of this loss was regained on covering by shorts but tho close was easy. September opened a shade higher at 52 1-4 td 52 3-S, sold off to 5t 1-2 and closed at 52. July ranged between 51 1-4 and 52 f-S and closed at 51 3-4. Local receipts were 446 cars with 216 contract grade
 Sentiment in the oats pit was bear ish all day. Improved weather condi- tions caused liquidation by local longs and the market lacked support. The close was easy September opened un- changed to a shade higher at 36 Is to 36 1-S@1-4, declined to B 1-4@3-S and closed at 35 3-4. July ranged between 3S 1-4 and 39 14 and closed at 3S 1-2@5-S. Local receipts 16S cars.
 Provisions were quiet and easy Sell ir~ of lard by longs was a feature of the market. At the close September pork was off ' 1-2 at 1855. Lard was down 10 at SIT 1-2 Ribs were 2 I-s lower at s.07 1-2~
 Estimated receipts for tomorrow are: Wheat carsi corn 560; oats 2i6: hogs 17.000 head

New Orleans, June 22-There was a gteadier undertone to market today. es there closing firm at an advance of only one point, closing quiet.
 The firmness of near petitions in all markets today is probobly due to the large sales of higher grades of spot cot ton out of the New York stock and to 6 better Inquiry in this market for the same character of cotton, a fair bus mess having been put through during the day at about unchanged quotations

 Waco. in Central Texas, wired about noon that the temperature was 102 In the shade and that hot winds were blowing.
 A June drouth, however. seldom, if ever, is harmful to a cotton crop. for while blooming of the plant at the top might be reported, there develops a tap root that could not be had if wet weather was to be the rule at this pe- riod of the season.
 There is danger, nevertheless, of the drouth extending Into the critical month of July when the heat becomes more excessive and more destructive un less alternating rains occur.
 This is the worry Of shorts at mo- nent and unless relief in the way oe generous rains be forthcoming in tho very near future, sreadier and prob ably a higher market might be the re. suit.
 For the ensuing twenty-four hours fair weather is predicted for the entire cotton belt, but 1t was raining all fore neon at Oklahoma.
 We are about to enter the season of crop scares. and the market is supposed to be short feature longs will make thte most of on the first favorable op- portunity.
 Therefore, the weathey especially in South Texas. will govern the market. probably ruling lower if It rains, high CT if no rain.

COTTON LETTER.
By Private Wire to Loveman and Conn
 pamy, % Commerce Street.

pauy, 36 Commerce Street.
 New Orleans, La. June 22.-Uncer- July situation In this market was the only bearish feature today. Texas continued as dry as powder mill, and reports of hot winds" cropped up once more. The weekly statistics were fully as hullish as expected. the amount brought into sight for the week show ing a decrease under last year nf 66,- 900 900 bales There was good demand and on the other hand. offerings were re- stricted owing to the small supplies in factors hands. Altogether, the slt- ance, but pulls. presumably held in check by fear of further liqidation of July contracts, lacked aggressiveness, and hence, the days advance did not amount to much. Spots were officially reported firm and unchanged. Sales amounted to 2,100 bales of spots and 400 bales to arrive. Middling was qu0- tedw at 10 15-1e.
 Bearlsh sentiment is gradually yield ing ground to bullish facts. The ad- vancfng. tendency. which the market unmistakably shows on the new crop ton on the part of Southern traders, the majority of whom have sold short on good crop reports. but who will loss unless weather conditions, espec- tally in Texas, improve between now and next Monday.
 New York seems willing to ignore the July position, and thera Is more disposition to do the same thing here. October and December now occupy the center of the speculative stage, while it matters little now whether with applause or silence only the big pro- fessionals remain interested to any extent in July. and they may. find 1t necessary before long to transfer their interest in the July position to Octo- Der or December, which can be done at an attractive discount. For the present we feel very bullish on the new crop months, not so much on ac- count of the drought in Texas as on account of the existing large short interest in these months.
 Yours truly,
 LoVeman 2z Go.
