New York. May 1.-The past week

great damage to the new crops from
unusually cold weather eas- the fea-
ture early in the week. and caused a
rise of 30 TO SIS points prices for the
next crop being carried up TO IL rs
for OCTOBER deliveries and 147-S for
May. Then came the liquidation of
weak speculative holders in the May
option breaking that month so points
to the basis of II as by Thursday. and
causing reaction In the next crop OPP
tfons of about 30 points from the early
high level, October falling back to
12H cents. But the real market fea-
ture did not develop until Friday. Then
the record breaking acceptance OF
more than 10000 bales OF actual cot
ton by the bull clique on its May con-
tracts occurred and this sent the mar
ket UP again TO within 10 points OF
the early high level.
