WEEKLY COTTON
By Associated Press

New York, May 21.-There were two distinct price movements in the cotton market during the past week. The first was upward,( owing to unfavorable wea- ther in the south and expectations of very low private and official condition figures. Buying on these features was stimulated by the apparent strength of the position in May contracts and the sus- pension of the rule limiting daily fluctua- tions in that delivery, as was done in the case of March. May sold up to 42.9Sc on Wednesday, while October contracts sold as high as 3673c, or 243 points above the low level touched on the break of late last month and within 52 points of the seasons high record.
 The appearance of more favorable wea- ther conditions in the south checked buy
 ing on the bullish crop news, however, and the market became very weak and
 unsettled owing to talk of unfavorable general business conditions. Fear was expressed that further contraction of banking credits might lead to commodity liquidation, while reports of price cutting,
 particularly in dry goods and wearing
 apparel, had an unfavorable influence
 which was intensified by the weakness of securities and reports that China was cancelling orders for cotton goods in
 Manchester. Realizing was veryN heavy. and the lowest prices of the week were reached during today's trading. when sen- timent was unsettled by the closing de- cline in the price of May contracts. This was the most spectacular feature of the week, although 1t was considered of no great importance in its bearing on the general market situation. But the decline to B. soc for May in the last few minutes of trading in that delivery today repre- scented a break of AIS points of the high record of the week and of 365 points from last nights closing quotations. It was | felt possible that the number of notices issued was somewhat in excess of ex- pectations leading to liquidation. but only I a few lots of May were sold on the break | from 4250c to assoc and the effect on later months was regarded as largely senti-
 mental.

BOTTOM OUT OF THE COTTON MARKET ON
 GENERAL SELLING
General List Closed Steady at a Net Decline of Seven ty-Three to Ninety-five
 Points
By Associated Press

New York, May 21.-There was a sensational break in the cotton market here today under a renewal of heavy general selling.
 The spectacular feature was the clos ing weakness of May deliveries. trad ing in which ended at midday and which sold off from 42c to assoc in the last few minutes. This was re- garded by local traders as the result of local and technical conditions rather than matter of broader significance, but the collapse of the May position had an unsettling effect on the later months. October sold off to 34.50c. or 125 points below last nights closing figures. and 223 points below the high level of the week. That delivery closed at 34.90c, with the general market closing steady at net decline of 73 to 95 points.
 The market opened barely steady at a decline of 32 to AZ points on July and later deliveries owing to poor ca bles, continued good weather In the south and scattering liquidation. There were rallies during the middle of the morning on trade buying and covering,
  ings and when May began to break the selling became more general Nothing was heard of increased spot offerings in the south, but very few buyers appeared on scale down, while sto borders were uncovered with the ] weakness of the market tending to in- creas nervousness over unsettled gen. 1 eral trade conditions.
 | July broke to 97.55c and December | to 33.3Sc. with active months gener- 1 ally showing net declines of 96 to 125 points during the middle of the aft ernoon. Rallies followed on covering
 and laster prices were 3S to 50 points | up from the lowest. Liverpool cables ! reported a quiet market with not suf- | ficient business to absorb some local selling on the further decline in

By Associated Press


 New York, May 21.-Bradstreet's tomorrow will say: Events of the week have been many and various and the word irregular only faintly de- scribes the situation. Chief among the events have been further efforts to restrict credits and deflate the much extended financial situation. the featuring of so-called cut price sales at retail, the further quieting down of wholesale and jobbing business pending a clearer view of the effects on general merchandising of the re- tailers efforts to reduce unwildfy stocks, created by past free buying and bad weather, the active intervention of the interstate commerce commis- sion break the strangling congestion on the country transportation lines further liquidation of securities es- pecially bonds for which 1t is demon strated there exists a demand at a price and finally a rather better crop situation which needs only good weather to become fair to good pros pect.

 FRAME OF MIND
Better Feeling Shows Up In Irregular Recovery of Prices to An Apprecia-
 ble Extent
By Associated Press

New York, May 21.-Wall street was in
 more cheerful frame of mind today. lis feeling finding delft expression in an Irregular recovery of prices, even the mercurial issues participating to an ap- preciable extent.
 Virtual reassumption by the govern ment of control of the country's trans portation systems as means of relieving the protracted and harassing freight blockade and a spirited rally in Liberty Bonds and Victory Notes from their standing factors.
 It was commonly believed that pur- hcases by the treasury department con- tributed measurably toward today's re- bound of the war fIotatIons, but bond dealers ascribed much of the buying to private investors attracted by the un- usually high interest returns.
 General credit and monetary conditions manifested no symptoms of relaxing from their high tension, but from various quarters came further assurances that the 'period of readjustment" had already borne fruit. Considerable call money was loaned at per cent.
 The price-cutting campaign proceeded twith unabated vgor, according to re- Ilorts received by foremost financial and Mercantile interests and the effect of this Increased deflation is expected to strengthen the bank position at centers where reserves recently have shown greatest declines.
 In the stock market rails of all descrip- tions made extreme gains of to points, steels and equipments 1 to 3, and oils, feathers and sundry specialties 1 to 4. In most instances, however, these were moderately reduced at the close. Sugar, motor, textile and shipping issues were under pressure.
 With one or two exceptions. liberty and victory issues finished at top prices, net gains running from l per cent in the first As to BOA per cent; in the fourth 4As. Foreign issues also were higher. but the domestic list in general was irregular.

Coffee Market


 New York. May 2l.-The market for cof- fee futures opened at an advance or to T points, but there was only a little buy ing on the talk of firmer technical posi- ton and prices soon turned easier
 The weakness in the cotton market may have been partly responsible for the decline which followed, as some of che selling seemed to come from cotton trade sources, but the declines reported at Rio and the reported absence of any import ant demand in the spot market were also factors. July sold off from 15c to 1475c and December from 14.5Sc to 14.40c, or II to 12 points net lower, after which the market rallied several points on covering. The close was net 15 points lower to l point higher Closing bids: May 14.55c July, 14S5c; September. 14.55c; October. l4.54c; December, 14.52c; January, 1454c; March, 14.57c.

Sugar Market .. 1.sn~i~<aA Draan


 New York. May 21-The local market for raw sugar was strong. owing to the sharp decline in futures, and prices were higher. There were sales of about 1000 bags of Peru sugar to local refiner for June shipment at 22Ac, f, and local refiners were in the market for Cubas al 221sc, cost and freight. without finding sellers, while outport ref1ners were said to have paid 231ac for Cubas. cost and freight, equal to 24.57 centrifugal. In the absence of fresh business. prices locally were nominal.
 The market for refined sugar was un- changed at 201z@26c for fine granulated. Refiners continue to allot sugar as fast as possible. but the demand continues active and much in excess of the supply. Reports that leading preserve interests would shut down their industries unless the price of sugar was reduced, and talk that exports of both raw and refined from the United States would be pro- hibited as well as weaknes in other commodity markets, led to heavy general lliouidation in the sugar futures market today and prices declined full cent I or the maximum decline permitted in any l one days trading, with final quotations at the lowest.
