COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, March 22.-The cotton
market showed renewed strength early
today, and after opening steady at an ad-
vance of to s points active months
sold about 8 to 10 points net higher,
making new high records for the sea-
son on July and later deliveries. There
seemed to be some further covering by
local traders who had anticipated that
Saturdays ginning figures would indi-
cate even a larger crop than that ac-
tually reported, while there seemed to
be very few sellers around the ring,
and some scattering demand was prob
ably promoted by talk that low tenn
peratures in the southwest might de-
lay the new crop start.
Futures opened steady: May. 800;
July. 9.32; October, 9.64; December.
9.s2; January 9.94.
There was enough realizing to cause
some irregularity during the morning,
but prices held generally firm on con-
tinued investment buying and scat
tered covering, with active months SELL
ing about 10 to II points net higher
and with January contracts crossing
the 10-cent level. There was talk Of
better prospects for an early end of
the war. and offerings seemed pretty
well limited to profit taking.
The market continued firm during the
middle of the afternoon, with prices
about II to IL points net higher.

WHEAT BULLS CAUTIOUS
ON ABSENCE OF DEMAND
Chicago Prices Do Not Seem to
Stand Much Selling on the
Early Upturn Today.

CHICAGO, March 20. - Decreasing
stocks at Liverpool tended today to
lift the wheat market here, but prices
did not seem to stand much selling on
the upturn. Apparent absence of any
active export demand rendered the
bulls cautious. So, too, did the gen

winter crop.
The opening. which varied from !. de-
cline to !. advance. was followed by a
material advance all around and then a
moderate setback.
Corn Selling Scattered.
Cnfavorable weather gave some
strength to corn. Selling was only
scattered. After opening a shade to
sax lower. prices rose we'll above
Saturday nights level
Oats hardened on account Of reports
of delayed seedlings. Offerings were
light.
Provisions went sharply down grade
Sellers seemed to be chiefly Influenced
by the enforcement of the embargo Or
ders in Europe.
Subsequently news Of the capture of
Przemysl by the Russians led to a
quick decline. Further breaks resulted
from uneonfirmed rumors that Italy
had declared war. The close was heavy

Later the weakness of wheat pulled
the market down. Closing prices were
