BULLS TRIUMPH ON
COTTON EXCHANGE
Exciting Day Follows Continued
Report of Ruin of New
Crop in South
Preparations Rushed for EnOr-
nous Delivery OF Old
Product in May

NEW YORK, April 25.-Not since the
big break of January last has the New
York cotton exchange seen so much ac-
tivity and excitement as today.
1t was a time of triumph for the
bulls, whose already strengthened posi-
ton as regards the old crop was sensa
tionally stimulated by reports of disas
trous weather in the south. This led to
rumors that the bull campaign was to
be carried on throughout the end of
the current season and possibly into
early new crop deliveries. as it was in
the season 10000 when, after Sully's
successful deal in May contracts, Brown
& Hayne, who are prominently men
toned in connection with the present
bull movement, carried the bull cam
paign through into July, August and
September.
1t is argued that even if the south
finds enough seed to repiant the entire
area reported damaged the cold snap
has made it look like a late crop, and
mills consequently will be dependent
upon old crop supplies for long
period.
on May contracts are steadily going
| forward 1t is said that the New York
cotton exchange had larger force of
men engaged in preparing cotton for
delivery yesterday than ever before and
according to the official figures the
stock of certifcated cotton at New
York which was reported as $1,000
bales toward the end of March had
mounted up to Isl 900 bales by the
close of business Saturday with predc
tions that between 100000 and 200 900
bales would be ready for delivery on
May l. Moreover, the May shorts have
until the end of May to secure cotton
for delivery on contract.
Damage complaints from the south
were in many instances accompanied by
southern buying orders and almost all
the fresh buying for long account was
said to be for new crop delivery. 1t
was believed around the local ring that
position at times during the day to
prevent too rapid an advance or to re-
duce their holdings, and it was the new
crop that chiefly reflected the broaden
| ing of bullish sentiment. October cot
ton sold at 12.94c or 81 points above
the close of last Saturday, while May
touched 1920, or gain of only 81
! points from the closing price of last
| week.
| The opening advance in the New York
market was greatly encouraged by the
| strength of Liverpool, which had the
/ bad weather reports before the trading
| here started.
