New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, May 22.-Cotton fu- lures opened steady at a decline of 3 to points on poor cables and favor able weather reports. Liverpool was lower than due on futures and the wea ther map indicated considerable rain in the eastern half of the cot ton belt. In the northwest section of the belt temperatures were low over Sunday but this was offset by the fa- yorabe weather elsewh ere. First prices were the lowest in the early trading. Good support was offered the market and buying soon became general At the end of the first half hour of trad ing prices were 3 to points over Sat urday,s close and ' to 10 points up from the lowest.
 After the middle of the morning the market queted down. chiefly because reports coming in from the cotton belt were conflicting. Some said that the crop was doing well and that better weather than that prevailing could not be imagined. Other accounts said that was imperative and that seed would not germinate in some localities until 1t did rain. The result was that many traders withdrew from the market un- til they could get a better line on crop conditions. At the highest of the morn ing the list was to points over

SHARP ADVANCE FOLLOWS OPENING Renewal of Old Crop Bull Support and Drouths
 Responsible

New York, May 22-After an if'regu- lar opening the cotton market had sharp advance today on a renewal of old crop bull support. continued drought complaints from sections of both the eastern and western belts and covering of shorts. The close was steady at an advance of to 19 points.
 The market opened steady at a decline of points to an advance of 4 points with disappointing cables, followed by more favorable reports from the dry goods trade and the failure of the wealth CT map to show any rain in the Caro- linas. There was nothing to indicate that the frost predicted on Saturday for the Texas panhandle had materialized, but there were numerous reports that cotton was not germinating in many sec tions of the Carolinas owing to the ab- sence of rain, and the market became firm right after the opening with spot houses and the bull leaders supporting old crop positions, while local and com mission house shorts bought new crop months.
 After selling about 2 to 16 points net higher there was a reaction from to I points, but the bulls bought on this de- cline, and during the middle of the day there was & fresh upward movement which was led by August on covering by Wall street houses. That position sold as high as 1517c or 22 points above the closing price of Saturday, while July sold 16 points net higher. and new crop posi- tions at a net advance of about to 10 points. Realizing caused some irregu- larty in the late trading. but last prices were only to 4 points off from the best. The final figures of a local crop author ity for May issued today made the aver age condition of the crop S4.7 per cent. against S0.9 per cent. the ten-year aver age, but the numerous private complaints of drought now coming in and the fail ure of the weather forecast to indicate any immediate change in the droughty sections beyond the possibility of show CTS in extreme western parts of the Car olinas created expectations of a bullish weekly weather report tomorrow

ANXIETY RELIEVED
 IN WHEAT MARKET
General Rains Put Com plete Stop to the Dry
 Weather Scare

Chicago, May 22-Relief from anxiety drought resulted today in a haggling market for wheat. Because of special support. however, the May deliv- cry was an exception, closing 94c up. Other months finished %cQkc to hc down. The end of the day left corn at 1sc lower to a shade advance, oats with Ac@1sc decline. and provisions varying from PEG gain to a loss of a dime.
 The general rains of the last 4s hours put complete stop to all talk of dry weather scare in the wheat crowd. Any thing like a stampede to sell, though was checked at the start, the obstacle being a disconcerting show of strength in May when shorts tried to cover. The possi- bility of a long delayed squeeez in the current month had a decidedly intimidat- ing effect on the bears.
 Moreover, the demand at the lower levels proved more than enough to offset the selling pressure which tapered ma terially with the declines. The fact that world shipments had broken all records for this time of the year received less attention than would have been the case if European markets were not holding well. Export sales of Manitoba helped to give a relatively firm tone to trading at the close. During the session July ranged from S7sso to ssc and in the end was STAG, a loss of 1sc net
 Corn prices were sustained by the idea that conditions for smelling and moving the crop would interfere with expected of receipts. July fuctuated between 5111@61ssc and 52c, closing firm, a shade up at 517sG52c Cash grades were easy. No. yellow finished at 52%@53c.
 Benefits from the rain brought about liberal selling of oats, especially by the On the resulting break there was good buying on the part of commits sion houses, but the weakness, notwith- standing, was greater than In any other cereal. Low and high points for July turned out to be Ss14c and 3S1ac, with the close ssc net lower, at S3ss@331ac
 An encouraging export showing lifted a trif1e barring July pork. That article. through lack of demand, slipped down 10 cents as compared with the last preceding close.
