New York Cotton Market

NEW YORK, April 14.-Hutton's wire says:
All that can be said of the market in its posi-
tion is that most of the distressed cotton has
now apparently been hquidated, and the scat
tered speculative long interest which has been
on the books of most commission houses In the
May option in following the late bull deal in
that month has been thrown overheard in
the disgusted selling and 80 point break which
has taken place since last Saturday. The mar
ket's immediate future course Of prices seems TO
depend largely on how long it will be before the
present pessimistic selling movement runs its
course and the attitude of holders In the SOUTH
carrying the balance of the crop.
The weekly government weather report today
is rather unfavorable. The statistical position
Is against the market and leading brokerage
houses predict still loHer prices.

Hay and Feedstuffs

Feedstuns continue very firm and some changes
IN IN rolled oats and mixed feed will be observed.
Bran Is still scarce.
With hay it is a question Of weather and size
OF thesdaily receipts at present. The rain yes
terday morning led buyers to hold of, though re-
cepts were only 215 TONS. The circular Of Som
ers & Co. says:
The last week has been a very active one on
the San Francisco hay market, owing to the
general uneasy feeling the part of most con-
suners here, which has resulted in many of them
laying away an extra supply OF hay, anticipating
have amounted to $500 tons, in comparison with
2,2s0 last week. There has been a steady ad-
vance IN price until Monday, which day
rivals Of about 1900 tons checked the advance.
As we write light rain is falling, and indi-
ca tions are for moro 1T generally be expected
that the tense situation will be somewhat re
neyed and business continued a normal
basis In the very near future.
Many of our hay districts have suffered TO so
great an extent that. no matter how favorable
the weather may be from on, the hay yield
will be light. This is very generally true Of
grain also. and, although incline to the hope
ful side OF the question, yet we are inclined TO
expect only moderate crops and fairly high
range Of prices throughout the coming season.
Much depends on the weather within the next
week or two. for II good showers do not come
the entire state will have to face disastrous
season.
