STORMS ADVANCE PRICES

New York. April 90.--While quite cratic as to fluctuations, today's cotton market showed great frmness at times, with May contracts making new high records for the season. The close was steady at a net advance of 1 to points.
 The market opened steady at a decline of l point on May, which was influenced by uncertainty as to the effect of notices, but generally unchanged to points high CT, and right after the opening the whole list frmed up on steady cables, reports of severe storms in the central belt, bull fish spot market talk, covering by near by shorts and bull support.
 There was more or less irregularlty dur ing the middle sessions as realizing was quite heavy, but the general tendency was upward until May contracts reached 10.63 and October 1O.35, or to 12 points above the closing figures Of last night. Later the market was unsettled and prices reacted several points under ind- cations that some of the stronger and older longs were taking profits on a con siderable scale.
 It was reported that the National Gin- ners' association forecasted a reduction of per cent In acreage and this with bulish tips from Memphis concerning the firm ness of interior holders, and storm dam age in parts of Tennessee, Mississippi and Arkansas were the chief factors on the advance. Southern wires were working poorly and probably restricted business to some extent. Another report on acre. age published during the day made the probable decrease only 7-10 of 1 per cent. Southern spot markets as officially report ed early were unchanged to 1-16c higher. May notices were estimated at about 1900 bales and seemed to be promptly stopped.
 To-day's port receipts, 23.164 bales, against 29, 414 last week and 63S4 last year. For the week. 130,000, against 144,274 last week and 5s. .392 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans, 7091 bales against 413o last year and at Houston 453s against 1234 last year.

ket Later cables reported no improve ments abroad but the local market was supported by the so-called valorization who were good buyers of May and prices recovered partly during the afternoon with the close steady, net unchanged to 5 points lower. Sales were reported of SO,- 900 bags, including May at 6.95@7 .o5oi July at 6.50Q6 55c; September at 6.05c: De- cember at 5.S5c, and March at 5.90c.

New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, April 3o.-Spot ,otton steady, unchanged; middlng, 10hc. Sales on the spot 1250 bales; to arrive, 800.
 Futures opened steady at an advance of points on the near and 7 points on the distant months. After the call the mar ket was encouraged to do better by re- ports of heavy purchases of contracts in the Liverpool market by prominent spot houses. The rise was gradual untilJthe old crop positions were 6 to 9 points up and the new crop months were 13 up. At this point the market weakened on rumors of heavy tenders of cotton against May contracts. The position is such that fac tors find it more profitable to tender high grades against May than to sell from their tables. Under this feature the near positions fell to a level to points below yesterdays closing, but the distant months were not so weak, remaining at a net advance of points. The close of the market was steady, the old crop showing a net decline of to points and the new net advance of to points.

Hubbard Bros. 6 Co.'s Letter.

New York. April 30.-(Specia1. )-The is- suance of notices for May deliveries, esti- mated at about 10000. produced the usual effect of advancing the market and they were speedily withdrawn Bidding con- tinued during the forenoon on a small and narrow market without any general interest to be affected. The local shorts are now few, and the reports of heavy rains in Arkansas and Mississippi, with predicted cold weather in the Memphis district, brought higher prices oc cover ing demand The position Is a purely speculative one, as the spot demand Is limited and general business does not fol- low the advance in the staple. As usual with a weather market the advance was unstable and selling orders forced a>de- cline to about opening prices. It will apparently be difficult to maintain any marked improvement at present
