porphyry copper producing companies.
the Utah and the Chino, yesterday
voted reductions in the regular quar-
terly dividend rates. A quarterly divi-
dend of $50 was declared on Utah

terly distribution OF sl50. compared

dends by these companies caused little

duction having been foreshadowed by
the heavy decrease in earnings in re-
cent months owing TO advancing costs
and larger taxes.

Cotton

hlle there was a renewal Of trade
demand in the cotton market yesterday,
the buying was less active and fluctua-
tions were irregular. Father sharp
rallies followed an opening decline,
with March and October deliveries
making new high ground for the move
ment, but the advance met selling for
profits, and the close was barely steady
at net gain of l to points. After
selling Off to 31.09c early, May con-
tracts touched 31.35c and closed at
81 20c
The reactionary impulses which had
shown themselves Oh the setback OF
Thursday afternoon were in evidence
barely steady showing, while there
were further reports of light rains in
the Southwest, which promoted the
tendency to take profits on long ac-
count. Offerings were we'll absorbed
on a decline Of to i3 points, however.
owing to the continued demand from
Liverpool and domestic trade interests.
There also seemed to be disappointment
that the Western belt forecast held out
no promise OF further rains in Texas,
and there was covering by early sellers
on the rally which established a net
advance of / to Is points Part of the
selling on this advance was attributed
to hedging against grade cotton in
the South, and as soon as the demand
slackened prices turned easier under
renewed realizing. The close showed
reactions OF some 10 to Is points from
the best.
Private reports suggested that rains
had been quite general if light in
nartheast, central and south Texas
Otherwise there was little change in
the news bearing upon new crop pros
poets. and, owing TO the severity of the
drouth in the Southwest, many traders
feel that frequent we'll placed rains will
be required to make a good crop in
that section this season. There was
/ considerable discussion Of q report or
the cost Of producing last season.
crop which was issued by II. F. Back
man & Co. This indicated that the
average cost of production had been
1l.28c per pound, and that the aver
age profit to the grower had amounted
to $3.50 an acre. There has been
much argument as to the cost of pro-
ducing cotton, particularly in view OF
the great advances which have oc-
Cured in the cost of many of the
items which enter into its production
A continued good spot demand was
reported and some of the private wires
received indicated a large business in
the Eastern belt. Southern spot mar

changed to 25 points higher. There

Wheat Private reports OH farm re-
serves of wheat We're not issued with
corn and oats. but it is tEf general
impression that the figures Will not be
materially changed from those of last
year. when there were 100.650.0 600
bushels. THE Modern Miller said
that The winter wheat stand shows a
good average condition throughout the
soft winter wi.eat belt; in Kansas
heavy rains have fallen, particularly
beneficial to Western Kansas, where
fall drouth prevailed, and, judging
from the stand and root condition.
Kansas should produce over 100, ,000,-
00J bushels and Oklahoma 40,O0000O
but the Texas crop will be a small one
Corn Prices were practically un-
changed both for futures and for the
cash article. Corn suitable for grind
ing purposes and for export was, in
fact. firmly held, but some of the low
est grades were in poor demand and
xather easy. Reports from the West
said that exporters had recently tax N
$50, 900 bushels, and that The food ad-
ministrationj had ordered leading ter
minal markets to furnish 100000 BUSH
els daily out OF receipts for export.
Some leading authorities in the West
were inclined to advocate n broader
market, on the plea that it would ia
cilitate the handling of corn and
bring about a more rapid accumula-
tion. A leading Western statstician
makes farm reserves of corn 1856,
275.000 bushels, or 1872 per cent of the
crop. This is the largest showing in
bushels on record and the second larg
est percentage. Last year the gov
orrment made farm reserves on March
l 82.303 600 bushels, or 305 per cent
of the crop. This years government

Oats. There was only a moderate
trade. with prices steady to irul, clos

March position showed tho greatest
strength. owing to light tenders on
March contracts in tho West. The
cash situation was steady despite the
fact that Western shippers are being
harpcred by the railroad embar soes
against shipments 10 the East. which
lave caused somAlongestion at West

cutie liberal, although the fear was
expressed that the movement may not
