New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, May S-The cold weather prevailing over the south and the an- nouncement of plans for a S1,000, ,000,O O0O merchant fleet were features which put cotton to higher levels on this market today in the face of steady selling which, at times. reached large propor- nervous, but it was firm in the after noon and the close was officially called very steady Highest prices were reached later in the day, when trading months were at a net advance of g to 2S points. Last prices showed net gain of 22 to 27 points
 In the early trading the market rose 10 to 15 points, on the cold weather in the belt, only to meet liberal selling orders. which appeared to come about equally from liquidating longs and bear- ish traders who were going short. Short offerings seemed to increase as the morn ing grew older, and finally all the ad- vance was wiped out and replaced by 8 decline of to 4 points on most active months.
 fened, partly on telegram from the belt telling of damage to young cotton by the cold but more especially on the plans to build a fleet of merchant vessels | which, it was supposed, would reopen ocean lanes to exports of cotton on a free scale once more. Late in the day shorts appeared to be the best buyers and they were forced to assume stiff losses in order to get back their cot ton.

Shepard & Gluck's Letter

lover w. E. Campbelps Private Wire)
 New Orleans, May S.-Cold weather is now the dominating influence in cotton the face of some little selling pressure. There is certain element which would like to ignore the statistical position and which feels bearish simply on war condi- tions as they now are developing. The late start of the new crop the unsatis- factory stands, slow germination and damage done to young plants by the tenn peratures ofNths remarkably cold spring are a stumbling block in the way of this element Our own idea is that if condi- tions continue unfavorable for any length of time we are in for another bull year. It can hardly be evaded if the trade once gets the notion that conditions are pad enough to make only small crop pos- sible.
 As yet with all the unfavorable condi- tions which have surrounded the start new crop, nothing like crop scare has developed, but it is a market axiom that no season can become very old without It's crop scare. Too much rain in May would prove unusually disastrous this year, and too much rain Is quite as pos sible as the most favorable of weather, We think the new crop will loom up with increased importance from now on and believe it's progress should be most closely watched.
 Liquidation of scattered sort still comes on the market and offerings of short contracts are rather liberal on the whole. Cotton is drifting into position where it may easily be advanced once any special buying starts.

COTTON MARKET
 CLOSES STEADY.
Reports of Buying and Un- certainty of Crop Prog
 ress Are Causes

New York, May s-The cotton market was steadier today on reports of trade buying and uncertainty as to the progress of the crop owing chiefly to the low tenn peratures in the belt. July contracts sold up from 1934c to 19. 56c, and closed at the high point, with the general list closing very steady at a net advance of 12 to 25 points
 The market opened steady at a decline of points on May, but generally to 10 points higher in response to higher ca bes The circulation of a few May mo- tices accounted for the relatively easy ruling of the near months and the gen eral list turned easier right after the call under scattering liquidation. There was also local selling on prospects for warmer weather in the southwest, and the mar ket worked back to practically last nights figures before the end of the morning October sold off to 1S.52c, or 2 points net lower and July sold point under last nights closing, but at this
 level the market was steadied by trade buying and reports that trade interests had good buying orders around the ring for execution between 1S.50c and 1S.60c for December contracts. The appearance of this buying combined with uncertainty as to how recent low temperatures might be mentioned in the weekly report of the weather bureau tomorrow started cover ing on which the market rallied rather sharply during the afternoon. General business continued quiet, but offerings were light on the advance, which carried October up to 18.77c. The market closed at practically the best point of the day. Private cables attributed steadiness in Liverpool to little buying on the poor crop accounts in a narrow market.

GRAIN AND PRODUCE

Chicago. May Swell founded predic- tions that the government crop report would prove bullish led to a sensational fresh advance today in the price Of wheat. May delivery jumped l7c a bushel to s. a new high record The market closed unsettled and as com pared with last night 32sc to 1lc up, with May at s297 and July at s2.31 to g. .s21l4. Ccrn gained 11sc to 314c and oats 14c to l5sc. In provisions the outcome was a setback of 7c to 25c.
 Trade anticipations of the substance of the government crop report turned out to be too conservative rather than toe radical as to wheat. A generally accepted estimate before the official fig ures were available was that the winter crop yield indicated would be less than 4OOOo0O0o bushels and but few dealers were prepared for the remarkable small total announced from Washington after the close 366, i16O0O bushels.
 Record breaking swings upward in the wheat market began the moment that business opened and the topmest point reached was just before the cloud trans actions were so restricted in volume. however, that the crowd of brokers in the speculative pit had a thinned out international appearance that suggested unusual lack of direct personal interest, and seemed to tell of a notable shrink age of public speculation.
 Although the most striking advance was shown by the May delivery of wheat the bulk of trading was in new crop fu- lures, especially July. That month as- cended overnight an extreme of 71sc to Sc.
 Corn as well as wheat advanced to a new high level. Strength appeared to be chiefly due to the action of wheat. A concern with seaboard connections led the buying.
 Oats sympathized with other grain. I'm proved crop advices, though. tended tc check the rise.
 Absence of support weakened provis- ions. A little bulge that resulted from an advance in the hog market failed to last.

STOCKS LOSE ALL
 OF EARLY GAINS
Abrupt Reversal Set in on Heavy Selling of Certain
 Securities

New York, May S.-Although during the first hour or two of today's broad CT and more professional session, the stock market gave promise of mak- ing additional recoveries from last weeks depression, virtually all the ad- vantage gained was relinqushed in the afternoon.
 Leading industrials and rails rose l to points during the early trading with gains of as much or considerably more among specialties but an abrupt reversal set in on heavy selling of utilities, chiefly gas and traction is sues which later extended to tele- phone and telegraph shares and be- came more general in the last hour Advices came from Washington which outlined the radical policy of the gov 7 ernment toward industrial corpora tions in connection with a comprehen- sive plan for the upbuilding of an American marine service. Final quo tations for representative stocks were slightly above lowest levels on the short covering which followed the pub : lication of the crop report.
 M1HlInurH priCeS TeCoIueu today by some of the better known utilities were the lowest in years Brooklyn Transit dropped points to 54, Con solidated Gas 71a to 105h, Peoples Gas of Chicago 65s to 74%, American Tele phone and Telegraph 41s to 118h and Western Union Telegraph 3N to 9l
 Delaware and Hudson was the first of the rails to react, falling 35s to s106R, but making almost full recov cry on the reassuring statement of it's executive as to the immediate divi- dend outlook.
 Canadian Pacific reversed 2-point gain to an actual loss of over a point. Lehigh Valley was weak and other coalers fell away with Pacifics and St. Paul.
 United States Steels early rise to 116B was accompanied by 1 to B. point gains in other industrials, cor pers and associated specialties, but nothing remained of these advances at the end Steel closing at 114%, a ne. pers, motors and oils followed the course of other speculative issues.
 Fresh weakness in rubles and lirea featured the exchange market, the for : mer recording a new minimum al 276s.
 Severe declines in minor rails weak ened the bond market. Total sales par value, aggregated $3,030,000,

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

It is understood that steamer loaded with cotton was sunk near Havre this morning, creating an unexpected demand in Liverpool for hedges. Some of these hedges were bought here and those wno have been identified with the market were alert to bring about a recovery of being advanced that it will be impos- sible for the south to raise crop of cot ton this season equal to the expected de- mand and that as the spinners will have to contract anyhow for forward delivery of goods, their hedge purchases alone in the market will be sufficient to absorb any offerings of spot cotton from now on
