showers for portions of the western cotton

showers for portions of the western cotton
belt served to hold the new crops down.
With the market getting excited over
the advance, heavy realizing sales We're
made by longs, probably with the inten-
ton of checking the advance, and July
fell off to 15 zoe. a reaction of points.
The new crop months sagged an equal
number of points, although their advance
had been slight compared with that made
by July. December toward noon sold
point under yesterdays closing, while
October stood unchanged compared with
yesterdays last quotation. The forecast
of showers for the eastern half of the
cotton belt encouraged short selling in the
new crops and robbed them of the stead
mess they would otherwise have drawn
from the July option. At noon the market
was quiet, with prices 2 to points down
from the top.
In the afternoon session the market was
dull and featureless. Bulls withdrew their
support and scalpers did most of the trad
ing. Prices showed narrow fluctuations
and at 2 o'clock the tone was steady,
with July 1 point down from the highest
of the day and the other active months
down. Shorts still exhibited q dispo-
sition to cover.
A feature Of the trading in the last half
hour was the gains made in the August
option, which went to 14.76c, or Is points
over yesterdays close. This was due to
short covering. The close was steady,
with July showing net gain of ID points,
and the new crop months 10 points
over yesterdays close.

ANOTHER ADVANCE
IN COTTON MARKET
Prices Gain 8 to 20 Points in
the General List
NO RAIN IN SOUTHWEST
Advances Begin Early and Prices Run
Up Sharply When Realizing He
gins, But This Affects Prices
Only Very Slightly

New York, May 11.-Today's cotton
market was practically a repetition of
yesterdays, near months selling sharp
ly higher on active covering, while the
new crop was relatively quiet and easy,
with the close steady at a net advance
OF to 20 points on the general list.
The opening was steady at a decline of
8 points to an advance of points, May
being 3 points lower in sympathy with
somewhat disappointing Liverpool fu-
lures, while later positions advanced on
a renewal of yesterdays covering move
ment, the failure of the weather map
to show any rainfall in the southwest,
and reports of steadier southern spot
markets May very quickly firmed up
with the rest of the list and it was not
until the market showed net advance
of Q to 10 points that there was any re-
action of consequence. At that level Of
ferings were a little heavier and during
lull In the demand from shorts the
market eased off to within 2 or 8 points
of last nights final, under realizing.
Later, however, there was renewal OF
bull support, and fresh squirt OF cover
ing, particularly by July shorts, ana
that position sold into new high prices
for the session. when it sold 15.27c or II
points net higher. May also made new
high record for the day in the late trad
ing, selling at Is. 4oc and old crop months
also made slight advances for the active
positions.
Southern spot markets officially re-
ported early were 1-16@1sc higher. Arrf-
walls of cotton at New York yesterday
were smaller, and 1t was reported that
5000 bales will be exported from the local
stock by the German line tomorrow
and that 5000 bales will be shipped to
Liverpool on Saturday. Aside from the
reports that rain is needed in the south
vest. weather conditions are considered
generally satisfactory.
Receipts at ports today, 1927 pales,
against 5145 last week and 1861 last
wear. For the week 1900 bales, against

WHEAT RECEIVERS
PART OF LOSSES
After a Struggle the Market
Closes With a Gain
BULLIsH NEWS IS HEARD
After a Period of Buying In Corn Prices
Recede, But the Close Is a Little
Higher-Oats Adance, But
Provisions Lose

Chicago, May I.--Alleged indications
that the comparative weakness of wheat
at Duluth was, in part at least, the re-
suit of manipulation from Chicago, tended
today to deaden the effects Of threatened
further shipment here from that port.
After nip and tuck struggle, ceasing
only with the gong traders finally
emerged from the pit with prices lie
higher for the May option and unchanged
to A@skc up for the deferred deliveries.
Corn closed unchanged to nc higher; oats,
Lake to %c higher, and provisions to
10 cents lower.
Temporarily, when the wheat market
seemed about to give away in earnest,
the most talked-of matter was dispatch
from Duluth asserting that the May cash
wheat trade there was Sick" and that
cargoes for Chicago could be gathered
without trouble. At this juncture the
pressure of selling in Chicago was heavy
and continuous, and there was not as
much buying as on previous declines. Re-
ports of rain in the Canadian northwest
added to the difficulties of the bulls al
crowds earlier in the day had referred to
immediate danger In Alberta from lack
of moisture and because of winds and
frost. Just in the nick of time for the
bulls telegram arrived disclosing that
a prominent firm in Chicago was selling
May wheat in Duluth and delivering the
stuff Immediately. On receipt of this in
formation the situation appeared to as
sumo a decidedly different aspect to the
crowd in general. and helped by Hessian
fly damage reports from Illinois and In
diana the close was firm at 81. 01@1. 1ls
for September, net advance of A@7sc.
May was cratic, f1uctuating 1sc between
trades.
Leading longs in wheat bought corn
early and sold it out late, but trade on
the whole was small. The wet weather
over most of the corn belt was expected
to delay planting short time only. Sep
TENDER finished steady and a shade higher
at 631ac. Cash demand was slow. No. 2
yellow sold at 63@64c. Trade in oats was
on a liberal scale. Damage reports were
received from the northwest and from
parts of Illinois, but the country sold
more oats today than 1t bought The
close was steady, with September &c up
at 391sc.
One of the export concerns sold line
of lard today, but otherwise transactions
in provisions were small. Pork closed &c
lower; lard, 71a@1Oc. and ribs 5Q71ac.
