STEEL TRADE AUTHORITIES REPORT

Steel trade authorities report a slight in

market from domestic consumers over those
which came TO hard during the last week
or ten days.
They assert that the manufacturers OF
steel are willing to have n comparative iull
after the urgent buying OF recent months,
but express the belief that the demand for
steel has not been satisfied Opinions are
heard more frequently on the street that
prices have about reached their highest

products for which there is quite a good
demand and which would be used to fill

Foreign inquiries for several hundreds OF

NO ACTION ON EARLY START
Only Informal Talk on Opening Cotton
Exchange Earlier

NEW YORK. May 16.-Thus far no
iction has been taken on the question of
changing the time for starting business on
he New York Cotton Exchange to conform
with the turning ahead of the clocks in
England. - s,.-,- -,.
A high official of the local exchange
stated this morning that up to the present
there had been but informal talk of MAX
ing a change here, and expressed the opin-
ion that nothing would come of 1t so far as
he could see at this time That the govern.
ing board of the exchange will consider
the matter If there is concerted move
ment, this official admitted.
He pointed out that there were many ar.
suments for and against the proposition,
saying that although those favoring a
start at $3.50 n. m. maintained this should
be done in order to give a full hour for
arbltrage business between Liverpool and
this city. Those opposed to the earlier
opening pointed out that 1t would cause in.
convenience to the strictly speaking Amer.
lean houses that have branches in the city,
er the West. Therefore. he stated, there
was no apparent reason thus far why a
change should be made.

HEAVY RAINS CAUSE COTTON
PRICES TO DROP IN NEW YORK
Drouth is Ended in Atlantic Belt and
General Pressure Follows

NEW YORK. May 16.-Heavy rains in
the Atlantic belt, giving effectual relief
to the drouth in that section, was the
leading factor on values this morning, and
the cotton market at the start was under
general pressure.
Buying orders OF commission houses in
the near months held those options steady
to a point or two advance. but late options
showed declines of 3 to points. The tone
was steady
About the only important buying was by
two of the prominent and active room
traders who took the offerings in nearly
all the months
After the call the near months fell to
4 points, but distant positions held at about
the initial levels, with December showing
recovery of points at the end of the
first 15 minutes of trading.
Liverpool's frmness was ignored en-.
tirely, although II was believed the buying
was based, at least to some extent on this
factor. At the time of the start here the
English market showed gains of to 5
points, whereas prices were to come N
to 2 points lower.
The receipts of cotton at the ports for
the day were estimated at $4,000 bales,
compared with 1850 bales last week. 16,-
679 bales last year and 10,94S bales in
1914
