R. D. Burgers Letter

New Orleans, June 27--The trend of the market was to new high levels, an- other sharp advance having been re- corded this morning as a result of the continuance of unfavorable wet wealth CT in the interior and more bullish monthly private crop reports. Realizing at the advance, however. occasioned slight reaction.
 Rains, in some instances heavy, par ticulariy in the south Atlantic section and in south and central Texas, have fallen in all cotton growing states for the third consecutive day.
 So far five private monthly crop con- dition reports have been issued, rang ing from 69.5 to 733, averaging 707. Should next Tuesdays government re- port average the condition of the crop lower than 77.3, it will be the lowest end of June report on record, the pre- vious low record for June 25 being 77.3. in 1917, when the acerage was 34,- 925, % acres.--H. & B. Beer.
 Chicago. June 27.--Coarse grains con- tinued, the weather conditions were considered favorable to growth, and the report of damage were less impressive. The cash markets were slow. Corn was within narrow range; the trade ex- pected some advance, but the selling was insistent and the market lost 1 Ac on old months. due largely to the corn in elevators getting out of condition. The receipts for five days were equal to the previous week, and the ship ments were 50O,000 bushels less Re- vival of cash markets alone will stim- ulate the market for a rally. and the present tendency is downward
 Oats were of from F O %c. The sup plies of old stuff are ample. receipts are 100, ,000 smaller so far, compared with last week, and the shipments are 900, 900 bushels. The trade Is heavy and this will influence the contracts unless damage reports increase. The southwest movement Is still delayed by weather but a large crop is being claimed Clement Curtis ( Co.

Over W. I. Phelts & Co.'s Wire

New Orleans. La., June N.-More of a reactionary tendency was assumed by cotton today following bulge to new high levels in the early trading. Much realizing came from the long side and filled up the demand.
 The weather map was again wet and the forecast had little promise of better weather in it. Private crop accounts were as bullish as ever and of three pri- vate bureau reports or condition of the day all were under 70. The Watkins bu- reau estimated the percentage at 69.9 which was the highest figure of the three, and the American Cotton associa- tion placed it at 69.3 which was the lowest figure Another report was 69,5 of the normal and the Watkins bureau predicted that the government figures would be under those put out by itself. This bureau stated that indicated crop on it's condition figures was only Il mil lion bales.
 Between now and bureau day which is Tuesday much profit taking on long con tracts is to be expected and in view of this although we still feel friendly to the market we would advise purchases only on restriction. The close was 20 to s7 down net-Shepard X Gluck.

New Orleans. June 27.-Weather con- ditions are better. Rains yesterday were largely confined to southeast Texas and the Atlantic district. Indi- cations are for partly cloudy to fair in the central belt, but showery weather over southwest Texas and southeastern portion of the belt. Oklahoma has en- joyed favorable conditions for the past six days and reports there and Arkan- sas are encouraging.
 Liverpool came about 30 lower than due on near positions and quote spots only higher.
 TheS Lancashire strike probably af- fleets near prices. but new crops were within 10 points of the response due to yesterdays change in our markets.
 The press this morning was total blank as to foreign news which, of course. raised opinion of the possibil- ity of renewed uncertainty. However, the cotton market was so absorbed in trading on condition reports that it paid no attention to surrounding mat ters.

MONEY RATES NOW REGULATE PULSE

Speculation Increases and Expands as the Call Loan Rates Are
 Relaxed
By AssoeIatsd Press

New York, June 27.-That speculative interests are almost wholly dependent on the movements of money was strik ingly illustrated today, the stock mar ket ralllying very generally and trad ing expanding perceptibly as the rates for call funds relaxed.
 The opening for loans was to 51s per cent, those quotations being the lowest initial rates of the week and the more significant as all loans made today hold over until the coming week.
 These rates compare with yesterday 5 high of per cent and the previous days 15 per cent, and bespeak favor able weekly bank statement, indicat- ing also that next weeks mid-year r settlements have been largely antici- pated.
 There was only one noteworthy ex- ception to the higher prices achieved, rails tagging throughout the session, with renewed weakness in Baltimore and Ohio, which experienced further liquidat tion on the passing of the com mon dividend
