UNCERTAIN COURSE. ON STOCK EXCHANGE.
Liberty Bonds Listed on the Exchange and Were
 Sold at Par

New York, June discrimination of the liberty loan campaign with liberal over- subscription and a per cent rate for call money were the opposing foFces in todays market and created considerable confusion and unsettlement of prices. Ex- treme reactions of 1 to 4 points in im- portant stocks were largely regained be- fore the finish, when money relaxed to 514 per cent.
 Liberty bonds were duly listed on the exchange, their first quotation being 101 1-50, or a slight fraction over par. Transactions which immediately were fol- lowed were mostly at par, but just be- fore the close of the session a sale was reported at 99 48-50, a discount of 4 cents in the S100.
 Dealings in the new issue were regarded a5 nominal insofar as they bore upon general investment conditions. The 6 per cent money rate was the highest Of the year and resulted almost wholly from conditions imposed by payments to the s2,O00, 100000 loan and other government commitments.
 Prior to the reversal in stocks which began at midday the market pursued an uncertain course, gains being restricted to relatively obscure rails and special ties Prominent in these groups were Pittsburg and West Virginia common and preferred and Pittsburg Coal, also the Motors, Oils, Savage Arms, the latter at an extreme rise of IA points to 102.
 Equipments and allied industrials start ed off at irregular advances but broke to points in the afternoon when signs of money scarcity became apparent. United States Steel made gross rever- sal of almost 3 points from Its maximum of the forenoon, but ended at net loss of s of a point. Lacakawanna Steel also rebounded but allied shares finished at material recessions, Virtully all the special issues retrieved about half of their setback andl high-grade rails, with few exceptions, recorded nominal losses. Total sales amounted to SS5,0O0 shares.
 International bonds, especially the war flotations, were lower except Anglo French 5s and Paris 6s. Total sales, par value, aggregated $2,700000.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, June 15.-While there was much pressure on the cotton mar ket here today and for while prices were at a material decline, the tone finally steadied. prices recovered and even went to small advance. The suc- cess of the liberty loan contributed to the steadiness. Cold weather in the belt and the drouth in Texas were other bullish
 influences. Momentarily, on the opening, the strongest months were to points up, but the market fell quickly in sym patry with a poor Liverpool. Offerings were increased by the report that prominent London house was out with crop surnmary showing decrease in acreage of less than half of 1 per cent and maintaining. that in spite of the poort start of the crop there has yet chance for an average yield At the lowest active months were 29 to 3S points under yesterdays close. Around the middle of the morning optimistic reports concerning the liberty loan began to have their effect and the trade paid more attention to temperatures down around 50 in the northern portion of the belt and accounts of the evil effects on vege- tation of the lack of moisture over a part of Texas, The decline was grad ually recovered. Last prices were at a net advance os 3 points.

Ayery's Letter

The cotton market closed about at yes terdays final figures Support was given the market when st looked particularly soft.
 It is becoming daily more apparent that the big fellows are quietly unloading. The time required to complete this liquidation depends upon the line they have to un- load. Considering the advance, doubt less it is big one When this is com pleted I would not be surprised to see them turn bearish and put prices as low as they can to replace their long cotton. The next upward move will be timed to take place during the crop scare period, which usually comes in July and August. Prefer sales on the bulges to purchases on the breaks if it was absolutely neces- sary to have some cotton, otherwise would leave the market severely alone.
