GROWING CORN CROP REPORTED AS IN AN
 EXCELLENT SHAPE
Drops Back in Quota tions, While Oats and Provisions Went Off
 On Bad News
Rv Assoo,ared Prs,

Chicago, June 17.-Sharp setbacks in the value of corn today resulted large ly from excellent weather conditions for the growing crop. The close was unsettled at 7sc to 2Kc net lower. with July $1.75h @1.75% and Septem- Der $1.6SA @1.69. Oats were l Sc to 217c down and provisions off from SIC to S5c
 Better crop prospects gave pearish influence and quotations tended to force the corn market low, owing to the shrinking of feeding profit thus rendered certain. The fact that in some cases the price of corn was up about IS cents a bushel compared with a week ago Saturday counted likewise in favor of a reaction. Heavy profit taking sales by houses with eastern connections took place and much more than offset persistent buying that was ascribed to rural sources. Most of the orders to purchase were for small lots. Such rallies as took place had no un- usual energy.
 Oats weakened with corn Country dealers were moderate buyers on the break
 Provisions were depressed in conse- quence of the bearish action of cereals and hQgs. Besides an increase was shown in the mi-monthly statement of warehouse stocks here and it was said that shipping demand. both do- nestle and export, was rather slow.

New Orleans, June 17.-There was again this morning a sharp contrast between the general detracting news and the actual cotton considerations traders ac- cepting the former as the stronger in fluence on prices and sold soon after the opening, which was practically un- changed from yesterdays close. For lo minutes after the opening there was rause which was an advantage for bears and selling broke prices about 20 points, after which there was recov- erv, but sustained support was lacking which invited a renewal of bearish ac- tiyity and going into the second hour greater break occurred, aided by hquida- ton in New York in sympathy with weak stock market at this time of the session. The bullish factors were good dry goods reports, improvement in the wire strike situation and unfayorable weather news, together with bad crop conditions. Rains were again reported in Texas and Georgia. There Is tropical disturbance still bordering on South Texas and the outlook for general cloudiness and rainy conditions over the western half of the belt. Professionals were active in the market today, and outside trade appeared to take traders view of the situation, realizing on the rallies; reinstating on declines.
 After ranging within limit or 70 points the market closed steady bO to es points net lower than yesterdays finals.
 Spots were 25 down; middling 3lsS; sales 1221 bales.
 Interior spot markets are unchanged to 25 points down with a small business done.-John F. Clark and Co.

Outlook at Peace Confer ence Has Big Effect on Trading Among the

By AssooIatrd Prsss

New York, June 17.-Stocks made viz orous recovery today from their acute de- pression of the previous session in nu- nerous instances mounting well over last weeks final prices.
 The rally resulted mainly from an un- expected relaxation of the rate for call money.
 Call loans opened at nine per cent but soon fell to six on offerings of large sums from local and interior institutions. The demand was nominal, however, in com parison with yesterdays urgent require ment

New Orleans Cotton.

BY NssocIafeu PFesF
 New Orleans, June T.-Selling pressure increased in the cotton market today and. except for a short period around the opening, prices were at a net decline throughout the session, standing 57 to 6S points down, net, at their lowest and clos ing 50 to 5S down. Around the first call the market was six to F points over yes- terday's close but the net advance did not last long.
 Much better cables than due and con- tinued rains in Texas stimulated the ear ly buying. Offerings 1t could on the fore cast of dry weather for the greater DOT tion of the belt and on an unfavorable opinion of world politics.
 Something of a disposition to recover was seen soon after the middle of the day but the market fell off again after spots were quoted 2ss points lower at 3l 3S for middling.

New Orleans, June 1.-The trend was toward lower levels in cotton today. the market feeling considerable pressure to sell because of a more unfavorable opin- ion of political The drop of nearly point in English consols, coupled with the fact that what looks like the final crisis in the peace conference on gave the trade an unfavorable impression re- garding European matters. Some traders apparently went home yesterday nnder the impression that the Mexican troubles might furnish new selling influence to- day but the quick withdrawal of American troops from Mexico smoothed things over.
 Liverpool was better than due by hal1 a cent around when the American mar kets opened and Texas reported more rain. These two features caused enough selling to put prices 6 to 12 points up around the opening but little later of ferings increased on political views and the forecast of dry weather for the great CT portion of the belt including Texas, and the market dropped to level 57 to 6S points under the close of yesterday Partial recoveries came about later on but toward the end the net decline was about 50 points.
 Spots here were 25 points lower and markets in the interior were 9 to 50 and Gluck.

FLEECY STAPLE WAS IRREGULAR DURING
 MARKET SESSION
Based Off Under Liverpool Selling and Scattering Liquid
 atiOn
By Associated Press


 New York. June 17-While fluctuations were irregular, the cotton market showed a generally declining tendency today with the close steady at net loss of 24 to 4 points. October contracts sold off from S072 to S0.05 and closed at S025 compared with So.6o at the close of the previous day The opening was steady at an advance of B points to a decline of two points with active months selling to 13 points net higher On or right after the call. This was poor response to higher Liverpool cables, however, and the market soon scattering liquidation. Reports of fur ther rains in Texas failed to bring in any fresh buying of consequence and a mod crate midday rally seemed to attract an- other wave of liquidation which sent the market off to SOTO for July and 2s.7s for December or about 50 to 5s points below last nights closing figures.
 Offerings then became lighter and later fluctuations were irregular with last prices showing rallies of some 20 to S points from the lowest on covering Prt- Vdte caDleS atJr1Duted the advance Tn Liverpool to Manchester and local buy ing on easier exchange rates.
 A number of unfavorable private crop advices were received from the southwest and the weather details showed consid- erable rain with precipitation of an inch or over at seven Texas stations, but the forecast was considered more favorable as 1t pointed to partly cloudy conditions. Part of the selling on the decline was be- lieved to come from Wall street sources and was attributed by local brokers to nervousness over the call money situa- ton or any unsettled feeling in the stock market. Reports of a Liverpool dock fire involving several thousand bales of cot ton were without any apparent effect. Port receipts today 30,591.

New York, June 1.-The high interest rates yesterday attracted money from everywhere and today, after renewals at 3 per cent for mixed money and 10 per cent for all-industrial, rates declined quite rapidly until around 3 o'clock quotations were per cent for mixed loans and ' per cent for all industrial loans. The market gave a quick and vigorous response to this change in con- dttions with sharp, strong rally which carried on to the close. It looks as if we would have a continuation of the rally tomorrow and it may even run into Thursday. We think after that stocks will be a sale for we do not believe we will have resumption of the bull move ment right away. The reaction has been a good thing, for a one-sided market always fraught with great danger, peo- pie become too confident and a break is inevitable. If it goes too far such break is apt to assume serious propor- tions. Total sales-1, ,3S3, 700. Post & Flagg.

New Orleans, June 17-After opening somewhat higher owing to better caoles than due the market eased off Tor want of constant support, withheld because or more favorable weather in the interior except in Texas, where furSher heavy rains were noted in the southern and central portions of the state.
 The recent weakness in the stock mar ket, due to higher money rates, influ- enced liquidation in cotton also, but re- ports from New York are to the effect that the interest rate was easier this morning.
 Peace in Europe appears to be in sight at last, something the world has been longing for The allies have given the enemy their last word and Germany must sign or reject the terms by next Mon day night If the terms are accepted the treaty of peace will be signed imme- diately and would likely have bullisn influence on the speculative markets, es- pecially cotton.
 If the terms are rejected, the markets are apt to be depressed temporarily. Meanwhile Germany would be invaded by the allied armies, which would prob ably force the Germans to sign at an early date
