Cotton

The cotton market showed continued
nervousness and irregularity yester-
day. Liquidation of long accounts was
promoted by favorable crop advices.
but the action Of prices suggested
more disposition to even up commit
ments pending definite news from the
Washington conference than to in
crease lines on either side of the ac-
count. After breaking TO $3.50 to
1892, July rallied to 1921, but failed
to hold, closing at 32.73, with the gen
eral list closing steady at net de-
cline of Is to 81 points.
The market opened barely steady, at
decline of II to 23 points, and after
the publication of the weekly weather
report sold % to Al points net lower
under liquidation and scattering pres
sure, which seemed to come partly
from Liverpool and Southern sources.
The absorption of offerings on this de-
cline was attributed largely to trade
buying, however, while spot advices
continued bullish, and early sellers
turned to cover during the early after
noon. Rather sharp rally followed,
but before the early losses had been
fully recovered the market met re-
moved liquidation, and later fuctu-
ations were irregular.
NOtnInS UouHlLc as TO Cne trenQ OF
the conference between cotton goods
trade interests and the War Industries
Board had been received up to the
close. Later reports reached the trade
that the question of fixing prices on
finished cotton, wool and leather goods
would be taken up by the board within
the next ten days. The most general
impression, while the market was in
session, appeared to be that if prices
were fixed on cotton goods they would
be at high levels, and that the con-
ference was likely to be followed by
an active demand from spinners for
beth spots and futures.
Yesterdays weekly report from the
Weather Bureau was the first Of the
regular weekly reports for the season
1t contained no complaint as to the
rev crop start and was quite gen
elally characterized around the ring
as one of the most favorable initial
reports in the history OF the trade
he weather continued favorable in
the South, suggesting further gooc
progress, and the news in this respect
doubtless promoted part of the West
crn and Wall Street selling of late de-
liveries. Exports for the day were
1903 bales, making 3,OGG,143 so far
this season. Southern spot markets, as
officially reported, were generally I'M
changed to 25 points lower

Wheat.-Leadng authorities in the
grain trade believe that the present
outlook for the new wheat crop is ex-
ceptionally favorable. The winter wheat
has passed through the winter with
little or no loss. and recently the
Southwestern States, in fact the whole
winter wheat belt, has been visited by
splendid rains, which should prove of
untold value to the crop. The season
is early in the spring wheat states, and
the crop has gone into the ground
under exceptionally favorable condi-
tions. The recent rains are expected
to bring about very active germina-
ton, as the weather has turned warm
in that section. Unless some unfore-
seen disaster overtakes the crop before
harvest there is every promise Of a
very large crop, which will assure lib
eral supplies for home consumption
next year as we'll as provide liberal
surplus for export. Favorable condi-
tions also prevailed in Canada, where
increased acreage of the spring wheat
is being planted. The continuation of
the fight in Washington over the Gore
bill to increase the price of wheat to
$3.50 is still discouraging the sale Of
wheat by farmers. and receipts at
primary points continue small.
Corn.-Operations in the new corn
contract will be inaugurated to-day,
and in consequence trading yesterday
in tho May position consisted largely
OF evening-up outstanding accounts.
The new contract calls for the delivery
of No. 1 mixed corn as basis, and
it was expected that the price would
start around S1.4O to sl.50 for the July
position. No limitations will be put
