New York. May 14.-A wave OF sell
ing developed in the cotton market to
ward the close today and the market
weakened after new high levels for the
season had been established earlier.
Some Of the offerings came from
Texas. and it was thought that they
reflected an improvement in crop con
ditions. In other quarters they were
attributed TO hedging against the actual
article which is being bought in large
volume. including low graGes.
Good weather for the next ten days
would carry the crop to the govern =
mcnt's canvass for the end of May con =
dition figures. due to be published early
in June. That statement will include a
revised estimated of the area planted
last year. The Census Bureaus report
showed that the consumption of the sta
pie last month was larger than had been
expected.
Heavy general realizing. led by Wal
, street. coupled with southwestern and
eastern belt spot firm selling. promoted
a sharp reaction in the last hour. when
prices sold off more than thirty points
from the morning high level.
The close was barely steady at net
decline of 15& % points.

Traders In Silver Cautious

New York. May 14.-The sharp
fluctuations at London, which have led
TO general confusion here, have re-
suited in increased caution, and in the
forenoon today business in silver was
at standstill, both buyers and sellers
holding off, refusing to quote figure
at which they would do business until
the cabled price was received. Bar sill
yer was quoted in London to day at 54d
for immediate delivery and at 53hd
for forward delivery compared with
55h and BOD respectively. yesterday.
The decline in London resulted in an
easier tendency here late this afternoon.
The price ranged from Sill TO 81 10.
with limited transactions around those
figures There appeared 10 BE- eonsid- I

ADVANCE ON MOSCOW
PLANNED BY KOLCHAK
Head of Cmsk Government Aims
First to Destroy Russian
Soviet Army
WANTS STRlCTER BLOCKADE
BY the Associated Press

Paris. May Il. (delayed) Plans are
being made by the All Russian govern
ment at Omsk to begin an advance on
Moscow, Admiral Kolchak, head of the
government, declared in an interview
with the correspondent of the Petit
Parisieh. In discussing the military
situation in eastern Russia the admiral
said:
'Owing to the thaw and the difficulty
OF moving the artillery forward, a lull
prevails. But the operations will be
resumed before long and wc.will try
to establish and guarantee communica
tion with Archangel and also with Gen
cral Deakyne in the south
''The advance in the direction of
Moscow will then begin. The capture
~of Moscow is the supreme end, the
political aim, to which our wills must
bend. But we must first reach the
purely strategic aim. which is the de-
struction of the Soviet army. This is
the end to which | will devote my at
tention.'
Admiral Kolchak said that the Allies
rould aid in the campaign by sending
armament, munitions. material and
clothing TO the army of the Omsk gov
ernment. The blockade of Soviet Rus =
sia. he added, might be made more
stringent.
After the final victory. the admiral
continued. a national assembly will be
called. to which Admiral Kolchak will
hand over his authority. To prepare
for the election of national assembly.
the Omsk government will be assisted
by council composed of representatives
Of the zemstvos, the municipalities and
the large social organizations. The
council will co operate with the govern
ment in the paciication of the country
and in fixing rules and organizing the
elections for the assembly.
