.MEAGRE SUPPLIES |. OF CORN SENDS THE
 MARKET UPWARD
Oats Gained About 1 Cent, While the Provisions List Lifted 45c to soc Over
 Monday
Rx Associated Pres,

Chicago, May 27.-Prices frightened mate rially today in the corn market owing for the most part to meagerness of the supply The close was firm at a462c net higher, with July s1.6615d1 .665s and Sep tember s1.5SA615S7s. Oats gained A91ikc and provisions 45G5Qe. Shipping char acterized the corn market throughout the session and there was a specially urgent call for the May delivery Upturns of the May price, which touched the highest price yet for the present crop, had an evident direct bullish influence on. the later months, although shorts were trying their utmost to get corn in time to apply on May contracts. Most of the offerings to arrive proved to be too late to help the May shorts and this fact tended to frighten shorts on other months, inas- much as the rapidity with which the visible supply was disappearing continued to focus attention and to intimidate woud-be sellers.
 Reports that green bugs were attack ing the field in some parts of Missouri gave independent strength to the oats market.
 Provisions advanced sharply as a result of packers buying of July lard and ribs! At first, however, weakness in the im- proved trade operated a big weight on values.

SHARP REACTIONS OCCUR IN COTTON
 FOLLOWING ADVANCE
General List Closed Very Steady at a Net Decline of 65 to 103 Points Un-
 der Monday
By Associated Press


 New York, May 27.-While there was no apparent change in the general char acter of the news regarding crop or trade conditions. yesterdays sensational ad- vance in cotton futures was followed by sharp reactions during today's trading. October contracts sold off to SO.60c, or IF points below yesterdays closing and 16O below yesterdays big figures That de livery closed at 30.s0c. however. and the general list closed very steady at a net decline of 65 to 10S points
 There was heavy realizing from the start, first prices being irregular at a decline of p to 42 points, with the market soon selling e3 to S0 points under last nights closing. Supporters were un- covered on this decline. After their ex- eoution, and the publication of..the fore casts pointing to unsettled weather con ditions in the south, with showers in some sections, the market firmed up 35 or 45 points on covering and reports that a good many of the contracts sold on the opening decline had been purchased by trade interests Bullish private crop re- ports and bullish advices from the goods trade with expectations of an unfavor- able weekly report from the weather bu- reau tomorrow encouraged buyers, but demand tapered off around midday and there was another wave of more or less general realizing. There may also have been selling for reaction on the break which extended to 31 45c for July and S0.s0c for December or 105 to 120 points lower. Selling may have been treasured by reports of favorable conditions abroad but slackened again to this level and the market was very steady later in the afternoon on covering and trade buying, accompanied by reports that French n- terests were buying July. Further sales were reported in the south.

Cotton and Grain Exchange
Quotations middling upland cotton
New York Futures.
New Orleans Cotton.


 New Orleans, May 27.-A sharp reac- ton from the long advance was forced in the cotton market todap by heavy liquidation from the long side and selling in a large way for short account on the part of traders who thought the reaction overdue and who. moreover, expected bet ter weather conditions in the belt. The market dropped on the opening and was at net decline throughout the session, standing at it's lowest SS to 126 points under the final prices of yesterday.
 Poor cables and overnight selling orders in large volume opening the day at the decline. In the early trading there was a fall of 5s to 76 points. The forecast of dry weather for the greater portion of the western half of the cotton region in- creased the selling pressure and by noon prices were at their lowest, the new crop months being weaker than the old. Sew eral small recoveries came about during the course of the decline, but no great steadiness was shown until after the noon hour when the steadiness of the market gave confidence to new contracts.
 The close was steady at net loss Of 56 to 109 points.
 Spots were unchanged at 32 cents for msGdling.

ACTIVE AND BROAD
 SELLING WAS AGAIN
 A MARKET FEATURE
There Was a Heavy Expan- sion of Brokers Loans, Which Caused Firmer
 Money Tendencies
Bv AsseeIafsd PresR

New York, May 27.--Dealings on the stock exchange today were again very active and broad, failing only by small margin to equal yesterdays 2,OOO, ooo-share day, which established a rec ord for over two years.
 Frequent periods of uncertainty marked the session, due mainly to the approaching triple holiday with its at tendant uncertainties, but final quota tions. although decidedly irregular, dis closed many substantial gains.
 Developments of the day bore little direct relation to market conditions, apart from the further heavy expansion of brokers loans, which doubtless ac- counted for the hrmer money tend encies.
 Motors. and associated specialties, also steel and equipments, were once more the chief elements of speculative inter- est but rails were more active and metals made occasional response to re- ports of revival of foreign demand.
 Tobacco and food shares asserted some of their recent prominence in the later dealings, but shippings, excepting Martin common and United Fruit, moved within narrow limits. Oils moved in to 4-point radius, but ended at irregular gains and loses.
 Such specialties as United States Rub Der, American Woolen Food Products, Industrial Alcohol and chemical and fer tilizer issues furnished much of the strength of the final hour with South ern Pacific
 Changes among steels were mostly nominal. United States Steel retrieved only a fraction of 5s-point reaction but Southern Pacific held at a substantial advance Sales amounted to S25 n0g shares.
 Victory Bonds made their first appear arce on the exchange selling at 99. .SS0 9996. The Liberty group held firm, while internationals eased off. Total sales, par value, aggregated s1s. s.750,0oo Old United States bonds were unchanged on call.

New York, May 27.-The market for cof. fee futures showed renewed firmness to- day on reports of an increasing cost and freight demand and ffrmness in Brazil. These features seemed to encourage renewal of special and there was also a covering on the advance. The market opened 32 to 42 points higher and sold 40 to 67 points above last nights closing figures, with May and July contracts making new highs. July sold at 1965c and December at 1S.65c, but closed sev eral points off from the, best under real zng. Last prices showed net gains of 25 to AS points.
