Cables were | about as expected, but more rain was re-
 ported in Texas, which caused buying for 1 long account After the call shorts put
 out a little cotton and longs took profits | on a limited scale. This brought about a decline among the old crops and put | them to points under yesterdays clos | ing in the first half hour of trading. The new crops were not active, but in the | limited trading done in them October lost 1 points. In the early hours the ring eX- hbited a disposition to wait for more
 complete weather returns from Texas be-
 fore taking a decided stand one way or another.
 The decline in the early trading brought out many buying orders, and the ring became active. Prices shot upward quick ly about s1 bale, May going 19 points up from the lowest of the morning and July 20 points. The old crops were not so active but October rose until 1t was g points up from the lowest. When the market began to look something like runaway affair, heavy selling orders made their appearance, and the advance was
 checked, and toward noon reaction Of 10 points from the top was brought about The gossip of the market was that tho
 leading bulls themselves were responsible
 for the heavy offerings because they have
 no desire to see the future market draw
 away from spot quotations. At noon the market was quiet and steady at an advance of to points over yesterdays closing throughout the list. In the afternoon session the market was
 held steady few points over the level of yesterdays closing by bullish weekly
 statistics. The ring was quiet and trad Ing was featureless. The market closed steady at net advance of points on
 May, unchanged compared with yester- days closing on July and October and point down on December.
