COTTON RALLIES
 TOWARD THE CLOSE Firms up on Weather Pre- dictions and Bullish
 Acreage Reports

New York, April 30.-After making new
 low ground for the movement during to-
 days early trading, the cotton market
 firmed up on predictions for unsettled
 weather and bullish acreage reports, with
 the close very steady at a net advance Of
 from to F points.
 The opening was steady at an advance
 of to points on better cables than due
 but the market almost immediately weak
 ened under a renewal of yesterdays sell
 ing movement. Stop orders were uncov-
 cred on a scale down. and inside the first hour prices sold off to net loss of from to points on the active months. This break carried July off to ll,22c and October to 1l.32c, comparing with the re- cent high records of 11.Slc and 1lsec and the selling appeared to relieve the market of the pressure of long cotton to some extent
 At any rate, prices steadied, and during the balance of the day showed a consid-
 erably firmer tone on the western belt forecast for unsettled weather with show CTS, a private acreage report indicating a reduction of about 7.6 per cent in the
 amount of land to be planted this spring, covering of shorts and scattered buying for long account Closing prices were within a point or two of the best The better cables than due were attributed by private advices to apprehensions that continued local rains would cause re-
 newal of high water in the Mississippi river and prolong the period of floods Generally fair weather was forecast for tonight and tomorrow in the eastern belt, but the official prediction for the. vest ern belt suggested that the low area Tn the west would move eastward and extend It's influence far enough south to cause unsettled weather and showers or rams over the greater part of the cotton coun- try between now and the end of the week In addition to the unsettled weather the buying during the afternoon was sup posed to have heen promoted by feel Ing that liquidation of long accounts had been pretty thorough on the recent de- cline of nearly & per bale and that the technical position of the market had con sequently strengthened.
 Receipts at the ports today, lS,0oo
 bales against 1Sl1 last week and F. | a95 last year. For the week, 90,0oo bales against 11,S16 last week and Fl, 972 last year. Today's receipts at Gal yeston, 6100 against 3975 last year and at Houston 2810 against 3934 last year

opened steady at an advance of to 3 points on good cables. The weather man was more favorab~< than expected but 1t did not lead to much selling on the first call. Immediately after the opening the trading months were to points up. At this level offerings increased ma terially, orders coming from both sides
 Gossip said that large lines of long cotton were being liquidated. The mar ket weakened under pressure and at the end of 30 minutes was 8 to points under the level of yesterdays close.
 The weather forecast of showers for the western half of the cotton belt checked selling and started q buying wave after midday. The weekly summary of wealth CT conditions over the belt increased the buying to a marked extent. Shorts were thrown Into confusion. It was reported that strong bull interests were again heavy buyers. The weekly summary was generally heavy. It was regarded as confirming the backwardness of new crop preparations. Before noon the list was steady at an advance of 10 to Il points.
 In the afternoon the list queted. At o'clock prices were points over yes terdays close.

STEEL CORPORATION MEETING IS HELD
Deficit in Dividend Fund. Judge Gary Has No
 Comment

New York, April 30.-That the Unit cd States Steel corporation failed to earn its dividends on the preferred and common shares for the first three months of this year by more than &C., 900, 900 was disclosed today at the reg ular quarterly meeting of the directors. Earnings, after charging interest on subsidiary companies bonds, together with interest on outstanding subsidiary bonds, amounted to only s17,S26, 97S. After making the usual allowance for depreciation and other regular fixed charges, including the sinking fund, net earnings were reduced to s12,10S,4 415.
 A further deduction of s5,741, S49, representing interest for the quarter on the outstanding issues, reduced the bal ance applicable to dividends to &C., 366, ,566. Inasmuch as $12.65S,700 was necessary to meet dividend require IL ents on the preferred and common a5ed. In the language of the official statement this was provided from the undivided surplus at December 31, I911."
 Earnings and net earnings as report ed today compare with $23,10J,11 and $i9.e1S,521, respectively, for the quarter immediately preceding, and with s23.- 5I9.203 and s20,001,S17 for the first quarter of 1911.
 Today's meeting was largely attend ed and unusually prolonged. It was rumered that some of the directors fa- vored reduction of the common div idend because of the showing, but this was denied. Neither Judge Gary nor any other prominent official of the cor poration would amplify the financial exhibit. The statement is based on a scale of prices for finished products much below that now prevailing and covers part of a period when the vari- ous subsidiaries of the corporation were working far below capacity.

New York, April 3O.-(Special.) )-Many reports were received both here and in Liverpool of the probability of further rise In the Mississippi river, as a result of the heavy rains in the Ohio valley during the past two days.
 These advices gave steady opening, followed by further liquidation. which carried the market to the lowest point, when the offerings were absorbed on a report that an estimr te of acreage is- sued by a prominent firm would show a decrease of 71s per cent.
 Probabilities of further unsettled wealth CT carried the market upward closing steady at some 10 points higher than yesterday. The market acts long in ex- pection of further bad weather at time when seasonable warm clear weather is needed for planting.
 Liverpool should open to points bet ter tomorrow.
