BUREAU REPORT ON
 COTTON TOMORROW
First Report Is Not Consid- cred of Any Great Im-
 portance

New Orleans, June 2.-The main event in the cotton market this week will be the first bureau report on condition. It will be issued Tuesday at II o'clock, New Orleans time. It will carry the crop down to May 25 and is generally expected to be bullish popular opinion being 5 percentage will be around 7S per cent of of the normal as compared with SIS year ago and s2 two years ago. Some bulls expect as low as 75 and some bears look for as high as 80. Private bureau reports this last week of 7s and 794 re- spectively, however, seemed to about fit with more conservative ideas, the first figure being the more popular. This first bureau report Is not considered of any great importance because of the fact that on May 25, there was still much cotton to plant and still much cotton to come up from seed that had been planted 1t Is impossible to give out much informa- ton concerning crops not yet above ground which was the argument used to postpone the acreage report by the gov ernment until July. Many cotton men think the first report on condition should be dated June 9 instead of May 25.
 With the first condition report out of the way. the trade will devote more attention to the weather and the daily map will have much to do with the course of prices. Since May 25, the weather has been favorable over almost the entire belt and a continuation of good weather will give the bear side the advantage. Many people will soon begin to get pro- nounced idea on the acreage, but 1t is probable important private estimates Will be withheld until nearer the time of fh. government.
