Federal Notes as Obligations.

Mr.. vanderlip would cause the fedora
reserve notes to be obligations or the
United States but would strike out the
words "and shall be receivable for al
taxes, customs and other public dues.
He would make them redeemable in gold
or lawful money "at the option or the
holder" He declares that criticism OF
the bill with respect to its intent to"aro
gold would be removed by the insertion
of these words.
Without recommending a specific amend
ment Mr. Vanderlip declares: think
the money reserves back of the notes
might well be increased to some point
above 80 1-3 per cent. i am not pre-
pared to recommend the exact figure, but
there are good grounds for recommending
an increase up to a point as high as
30 per cent
He would strike out the provision re-
curing the payment of interest on fedora
reserve notes, statng that II the surplus
profits of the banks are all paid to the
government such interest would come out
of government profits.

WEATHER REPORTS
INFLUENCE MARKET
Public Less Inclined to
Trade in Old Crop
Positions

New Orleans, May 1s.-Weather condi-
tions will continue to be the main influ-
enee in the cotton market this week, al
though development in the July position
may be strong enough to attract some
attention, and perhaps affect the whole
list in the future market. of late. how
ever it has been evident that the trading
public is less inclined to trade in the
old crop positions than is usually the case
az this time of the year, and, consequent
ly, the July option has lost much of its
Importance.
Reports from the cotton region at the
end of last week indicated that rain is
much needed in many important sections
of the eastern belt, but that elsewhere
ample moisture for the time being has
fallen. 1t is very likely that continued
rains In the central and western belts
would raise the cry of excessive precipi-
tation and talk of too much rain in May
generally leads TO quick advances in
prices. Nearly everywhere IN the belt
warmer weather would be welcome Con-
tinned cold nights would be a strong
bullish feature which the long side could
use to great advantage.
The great question of the near future Is
in regard to getting the crop up to a
stand. Planting was early enough, but
much seed has failed to germinate either
because of low temperatures or of lack of
moisture I'm the soil or because of both
reasons. Anything that will further de-
lay termination of seed would cause the
conviction to grow that there is a late crop
over a large part of the belt, in spite of
the outlook for an early start when plant
ing first commenced.
Warm weather with very little rain in
the western and central belts and warm
weather with good rains In the eastern
bel, are the conditions most desired this
week. If they materialize the market
may have a tendency to work lower, es-
peclally as it is claimed by many brokers
and traders that a good part of the short
interest has covered, leaving the market
weaker technically than 1t has been for
some time past
