points on the old crop months and an
advance of Is points on the new. The
storm sweeping the cotton belt was the
main feature of the market and it caused
the widest trading seen in many months
Buying was heavy for both accounts, but
frightened shorts were the best buyers
The new crop months were quickly sent
over the 13-cent level; at 1910 for Decem-
Der offerings from the bear side became
heavy again, the stronger shorts putting
out fresh sales to average up the price
of their holdings. 1t was first notice day
for May, but no great number of notices
were reported in the early trading and
they were quickly stopped. At the end
of the first half-hour of business the old
crop months were II points over yester-
days close and the new crops were 20 to

For the first time in many months the
new crop was stronger than the old.

WHEAT MARKET
IS UNSETTLED
BY Associated Press,

Chicago, April 26.-COnficting views in
regard to the Kansas crop report unset
tied the wheat market to-day, but most
operators inclined to a beariSh idea of
the document. Accordingly, a decided
sag in the price level ensued. The bull
contention which was accepted at Liver
pool but not here, took the ground that
the report made a showing much less
favorable than had been expected. On
the other hand Chicago traders gave no
tice chiefly to the fact that condition
7S.5 was better than previous figures
and that the acreage abandoned was
per cent less than year ago. Open
ing prices were 5-Sc lower to 1-4c up.
