 COTTON MARKET Reports of Cold and Rain Closes Market Bare

New York May 20.-While the onicial forecaster for frost in the Texas pan handle caused an advance after an irreg- uar opening in the cotton market this morning, weather conditions as whole seemed to make more favorable impress sion on sentiment owing to reports Of rain in the eastern belt, and the market closed barely steady at a net decline of , to Il points under realizing and local selling. The opening was steady at an advance of points to a decline of points, near months being higher on the bullsh weekend figures and scattered covering, while late positions responded to the reports of more or less general showers in the eastern belt, and prospects for further showers oyer the weekend. Right after the opening prices showed a tendency to ease off owing to the rain news, but the offerings were we'll ab- sorbed, and immediately following the publication of the western belt forecast calling for the expected showers, but also for frost in the panhandle, the market stiffened up on covering by early sellers and some fresh buying for long account ] WHICH SeHl pflctS to u llet duNdHCe OI about to s points.

BEAR ACTIVITY IN
 WHEAT MARKET
Corn, Oats and Provisions
 Each Show Small De- < cline iH Price

Chicago, May 20.-With a change to showery weather, conditions favored tho bear side today in wheat. There was a good deal of caution, though, about un- duly pressing sales. When the pit was cleared, prices were left Ac lower to asc up. Corn showed a net decline of Ac to ssa1zc, and oats 1s@Ac. Provisions in the end varied from last nights figures to 15c falling off in cost.
 On the whole, 1t was a natural bear market for wheat The chances or mois- ture and heat being proportioned to the needs of the growing crops than was feared might be the case in view of re- cent dryness and high temperature formed the principal influence against values. A good deal of unloading resulted from re- ports of rain in winter wheat states over night. But aside from the break in the drouth and the hot spell, the tend ency toward a decline was aided by signs that world shipments would reach more than 16,aoo.00O bushels for the week. Besides there were general rains in Rus sia and more favorable crop news from | Europe in general Assertions were cur
 
 wheat to Chicago from winter wheat milling points might be looked for next week.
 The early beginning of harvest in Texas did not escape notice. but was put in the background temporarily in conse- quenee of damage reports from Nebraska. What little furry resulted from the lat ter were quickly worn off and the final tone was easy. July ranged from SSc to SS1ac, with last sales 14c down at SSAc. Corn became easier on account of an unexpected larger movement to market. Country acceptances were on a liberal scale. July fiuctuated between 51a4651Sc and 52Mc closing easy at 517sc, a net loss of 3sc. Cash grades weakened under mod crate offerings No. ? yellow finished at 53Q53ac.
 Goodness and rain let oats down a bit, although sentiment was by no means unanimous, especially among prominent local spectators. July sold from 33s4c to 34c as outside lmits and close 1sdAc off at S74qSS%c. 'i

New Orleans. May 2o.-Cotton futures opened steady, unchanged, to 1 point down. Cables were too low and weather reports were good. This resulted in rather heavy selling around the opening and but for support by leading bulls a. material decline would have been brought upon. Immediately after the call the list lost 2 to points under the pressure. At 15 Soc for July. loss of points, Hayne was a bidder for thousands of bales, but the ring had little cotton to sell him. The posting of the weather forecast for over Sunday, calling for cold CT weather in Oklahoma and west Tex as, with frost in the Panhandle, further steadied the market and at the end of the first half hour of trading the active months were. up to down compared with yesterdays close.
 From the middle of the morning on selling was general and at times heavy. Bulls bought some cotton. but, did not make any great effort to hold prices up. Trailing longs liquidated over the week end and considerable fresh short selling of the new crop months was in evidence. coming from traders who were impressed

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York May 0-(Special) An easier market today followed the showers and the predictions of further showers over the Carolnas tonight. Many regard the decline of the past two days as natural reaction from the strong markets of last week. In the last hour the scat tered offerings of July carries prices to the low point It is belief of the trade that the July strength is not over, but that a large portion of the holdings have been liqudated in meeting the demand to cover There is a much better business doing in the cotton goods market and some advances are reported from the low prices made a month ago. While the market will be governed by the weather, it is evident that a large crop will be re- uuired next season.

Judging from the returns of the New York banks and trust companies for the week ending May 20. whatever loan eX- Ipansion grew out of the suddenly in- creased stock exchange operations went to the trust companies or at least the loans of the clearing house banks have been shifted to those institutions. The statement of the associated banks on ac- tual conditions revealed decrease of $1,- e27, 300 in the loan item, while cash ex- banded s2,316, 400 This was a little less than indicated by known curreny oper- ations, but as matter of fact the outside institutions made a gain of nearly three and a half millions in cash, some parts of which at least represents the continued flow. of money to New York.
 The deposits of the clearing house banks increased today $562,90o, while the deposits of the trust companies and other outside institutions, as a result of the heavy loan expansion rose $25,061,20 In this connection it is interesting to record the fact that within the last 60 days the trust companies have increased their de- posits nearly s10S, 00,00O. while the de- posits of the clearing house banks have decreased about sl1 900. Trust company loans in the similar period have expanded about $9S. 0,000, while the clearing house figures show that the associated banks have decreased their loans s27. .0Oo, ,O00
 The statement of averages of the asso- oiated banks for the week ending May 20 did not correspond with the statement of actual conditions. The surplus above the 20 per cent requirement. based on averages lis s45,674,575, while the actual condition surplus stands at SAG, ,6SS, 200 The cash re- serve of the clearing house banks is 2s. 42 per cent, while the trust companies re- serve is 15.9 per cent and incuding the state banks and other outside institu- tons the percentage of the reserves of all institutions outside the clearing house was 17.7 per cent
