IMPROVING CROP
CONDITIONS SENT
COTTON DOWNWARD
General Staple List at Close
Was Barely Steady at a Net
Decline of TWenty-eight
to Thirty-TWo Points

new YORK, June 4.--OnIdNOraDle
British labor news and reports of inn
proving crop conditions in the south
were considered chiefly responsible for
declines in the cotton market today.
October contracts sold off to IS. 24c,
or SO points net lower and II points
below the high price touched on the
advance of late last week. They
closed al 1875 7c. with the general mar
ket closing barely steady at net de-
cline of % to 80 points.
Cable advices published here before
the opening stated that wage negotia-
tons in Manchester had broken down,
and that nearly half million spinning
and weaving operatives in Lancashire
would be out next week. There We're
also reports that another deadlock had
been reached in the British coal strike
disputes, and the market here opened
barely steady at decline of 10 to IS
points under liquidation and Liverpool
selling. There was also considerable
southern selling accompanied by
rumors of an easier spot basis in the
southwest, and local traders were very
favorabiy impressed by the weather
map showing further beneficial rains.
July declined to ~. SIC and December
to 13. 67cslate in the morning, and last
prices were about the lowest of most
positions. Trade interests were buy
hedges, but sold October against part
of the purchases. Some of the south
ern selling was supposed to be in the
way OF hedging against cotton in the
southwest, where an early new crop
movement is expected Otherwise the
bulk of the pressure was supposed to
reflect weekend liquidation from
western, Wall street and local sources

goods situation were considered gen
orally favorable. particularly reports

that merchants were placing orders for

OF production at Fall River was placed

TRADING IN GRAIN
HIT A DOWNWARD
SLANT YESTERDAY
Excellent Weather and Fore
casts of Continued Cool
Skies Over Belt Chief Fac
tor In the Decline

Chicago, June 4.--Grain futures were
down-grade on the Chicago Board of
Trade today. Ordinary breaks failed
to halt the movement, especially in
July wheat, which was so weak that
it dragged all other grains with 1t.
The end of the session found all OPP
tions at practically the low point of
the day. Wheat Melted loss of
sac, corn 1@1iAc and oats l q &c.
Provisions resisted the movement and
closed to 20 points net higher.
Wheat prices were noticeably weak
September, but transactions were small
and it hung generally about 15c under
the July option.
Excellent weather for filing wheat
berries and forecasts OF continued cool
skies over the belt was the chief fac
tors in the decline at the start. These
were steadily added to as trading pro-
crossed, and their effect was height
ened just before the close by word
from the seaboard that France had
inquired as to the chances of cancel
ling Chicago wheat shipments for July.
This later development was generally
IeS0ueu as al eiiecl u ZIG
GOV ernment's reported intention to
place heavy import duties on grain.
Export demand was generally slack.
Corn and oats were both affected by
wheat prices and by reports which
held out prospects of good crops in
both those products. Sale of 100000
bushels of corn for export failed to
change the futures market in the face
OF the wheat situation.
Higher hog prices, a decreased west
ern run for the week and an optimistic
trade report from a leading packing
company operated to keep provisions

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
Rv Associated Press


New Orleans, June 4.--The trend
was lower in the cotton market today,
under the effect Of favorable weather
conditions over the belt, favorable
crop accounts from Texas, small mill
takings and the bearish Interpretation
of weekend reviews of trade in gem
eral which were not to show the i'm
provement that had been expected.
Hester made mill takings of Ameri-
can cotton by the world $4,000 bales
against $4,000 this week last year and
$4,000 this week two years ago. Mo-
mentarily, on the first call, prices were
1 to 3 points over Thursdays close
on the most active months. From this
there was gradual sag which persisted
to the close, last prices being the
lowest of the session and showing net
losses of 20 to 23 points. July traded
as high as 1927 and as low as 1902
Showers over good part of the
southern half of the belt were held to
be favorable. Houston messages
claimed Improvement in the condi-
ton of the crop for both Texas ani
Oklahoma and predicted a considerable
movement of new cotton from south
Texas by the middle of July.
The decline appeared to be slowed
down in the late trading by cable
grams from London stating that a new
conference over the British coal strike
had been arranged and expressing the
belief that there was a chance that
the dispute would be settled over
Sunday.

Conf USING IN THE
WEEKEND TRADING
Louisville and Nashville and

Gains of Five to Nine
Points

New York, June 4.-Confusing
changes featured the weekend session
of the stock market, leading issues re-
cording widely divergent movements.
Food shares and many secondary
steels. oils and affiliated stocks were
under further professional pressure,
but several seasoned industrials and
rails denoted substantial support.
The strength of Louisville and Nash
willie and Atlantic Coast Line proper
ties, virtually under one ownership, at
net gains of AS and points, respec-
lively, was a noteworthy but mex
plicable factor.
Some of the more extensive declines
in speculative issues were partly or
wholly retrieved in the usual covering
of short contracts. Persistent weak
ness was shown, however, by sugars
and shippings. Sales amounted to $780,
900 shares.
Liberty 31As made further appre-
ciable recovery from their recent de-
preston, rising to 1898, or almost 50
per 500 from the low record of
Thursday. other liberties, as well as
Victory notes, eased, however, and the
general bond list was irregularly low

The entire foreign exchange Market
was again unsettled, sterling demand
bills falling to $3.S4sz, or more than
15c to the pound from the high quo
tation of a fortnight ago. Weakness
of the British rate was attributed prl-
marily to the strike of the cotton
spinners.
Another decrease in actual loans and
discounts was reported by clearing
house banks, together with substan-
tial gain of cash, increasing excess re-
serves to slightly over $25,000,ooo.
