IRREGULARITY IN
PRICE OF COTTON
Good Rains in the Western Belt
Cause Decline After Early
Gain-No Feature,

NEW YORK, June THE cotton mar
ket opened steady to-day with first
prices net unchanged to points lower
than last nights close. Early cables re-
f1ected the usual weekend evening up
at Liverpool. resulting in a wave Of
scattered short covering here. Prices i'm
mediately rallied l to points above the
opening quotations. The selling was
scattered. The strength Of the market
was mainly attributed to the strength Of
the summer positions
Later advices from sections Of the
cotton belt indicated that the crop is
making excellent progress. This, coupled
with the weather map showing heavy
rains over the entire State Of Oklahoma
and nice showers in Texas, where rains
are badly needed, brought out some SELL
ing, resulting in prices dropping 3 to s
points from the previous close.
At the close the market was steady
with prices showing irregularity, being
4 points lower to 2 points higher than
the final quotations of Friday.

OPINION ON GRAIN.

& Co: Wheat-We are inclined 20 look
for a narrow market until after the
Government report on Monday next. IN
less something sensational in the way Of
crop news comes 10 hand.
CONSERVATIVE intere1t has as
sumed rather small proportions and the
market Is In a waiting attitude. The
action Of the cash markets during the
next few days will be the chief factor IN
determining values.
Oats-Crop reports from the South
west are not good, while the reports
from east OF the River show some i'm
provement
provisions-Think some further up
turn in prices Is likely.

FROWNS ON APPOINTMENT
SENATE NOT INCLINED TO RE-
CEIVE CLAYTON.
Leaders Doubt Right of Governor
O,Neal to Appoint Him Without
Legislatures Consent.

When word was received that Gov
ernor Emmet O'Neal Of Alabama had
of his own volition appointed Repre-
sentative Henry D. Clayton to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of Unit
ed States Senator Joseph F. Johnson
it was a question whether or not his
credentials would be accepted by the
senate. Lawyers on the Democratic
side of the senate decided unani-
mously that Governor O'Neal needs
special authorization from the state
legislature to make his appointment
legal. Some senators would evident
ly be glad to have Mr.. Clayton seated
without struggle, but the opinion
was overwhelming that party neces-
