New Orleans Cotton


 New Orleans, April 20.-The trend in cotton today was higher from the open- ing on general demand for which the cold weather in the belt was mainly re- sponsible. Private reports told of almost general replanting in many localities in the southern half of the belt, the govern considered highly unfavorable' and the weather map indicated another cold wave headed for the cotton region which. 1t was feared, would put the finishing touches to crop damage. The advance was well maintained through the session and was gradually widened, until, during the last half hour, it amounted to 5 to 37 points. The close was 29 to 30 up. May traded as high as 1,16S and closed at 1.162.
 S In s the early trading values. were helped, to some extent, by better cables than due and the fresh attempts to- set tie the British coal strike, but the market soon got away from such features and settled down to consideration of weather and crop news. Private reports from the interior said that many farmers were buying fresh supplies of seed for re- planting purposes and some localities claimed that supplies of specially bred seed were getting low or were exhausted.
 In the early afternoon buyers received further encouragement from spot points in Texas which wired in that the de- mand for export was improving. Shorts covered freely following the receipt or these messages and the additional de- mand made for very firm undertone.

WHEAT SWINGS UPWARD
 FOLLOWING A DECLINE IN
 WHICH JULY HITS BOTTOM
By Associated Press

Chicago, April 20.-Wheat took de- cided upward swing in price today after a new decline in which the July delivery touched the lowest point yet this season. Extremely bullish crop advices from India, together with scat tered reports of domestic crop deteri- orating were factors. The close was strong, 2A to f. net higher with May $125h to $1.25M, and July. $1.05A to $1.o5h. Corn gained 21sc to 3Ac, and oats ssc to Pc higher. In provisions the outcome varied from cents de- cline to 20 cents advance.
 Estimates were current that the win ter crop of India this season would be 100000, 900 bushels less than last years total, and that the country would be an importer instead of an exporter. It was said that drouth and other ad- verse conditions had been general throughout India, and that in the Pun jab, the most important wheat district, the yield would be cut down half. Do- mestic crop deterioration reports came from the west and southwest, and were contrary to the government weekly report which said freezing temperatures had done but little dam age. Strength in the corn market tended also to stimulate active buying, which had been notably absent during the first part of the day. Persistent export demand gave independent strength to the corn market. Oats were firm in sympathy.
 Provisions rallied with grain after being depressed by lower quotations on hogs.

COTTON GOES UP ON. SMALLER OFFERINGS. AND BETTER SPOTS
General Market Close Was Steady at a Net Advance of Twenty to TWenty-nine
 Points on the Day
By Associated Press

New York, April 2O.-The cotton mar ket recovered most of yesterdays losses owing to smaller offerings from the south reports of an improving spot de- mand in Liverpool and an unfavorable weekly report on crop progress. July contracts sold up to 12.60 or s1 points net higher and closed at 12.5, with the general market closing steady at a net advance of 20 to % points.
 The market was irregular at the start owing to a renewal of near month liqui- dation, with first prices points lower to points higher. Spot interests seemed willing to buy May against sales of July at difference of about 60 points, how ever, and as soon as the initial sales had been absorbed, the market turned firmer on covering. Trading was very quiet during the middle of the day, with brokers again reporting a more or less general disposition to wait the outcome of Fridays conference between the Eng fish coal miners and the mine owners, and developments in connection with German war separations. Covering be- came little more active after the pub lication of the weekly weather report indicating that planting and growth of cotton had been retarded by wet wealth CT followed by low temperatures and there was some foreign trade buying to- ward the close. This was believed to include buying of October for Japanese account, and Liverpool also seemed to have a few buying orders here in the late trading.
 May sold up from 11.70 to 1L7s and October from 12.S3 to 1914. closing with in four or five points of the best. Talk of easing money rates and frmer mar ket for India cotton in Bombay were among the features mentioned on the late advance. Trade advices from h. dia said the healthier statistical posi- tion was asserting itself there, and that Japanese interests were steady buyers.

Hubbard Rrns.

New York, April 2o.--(Special.) Jour market opened around last nights close and in the absence of any un- favorable news from Liverpool soon advanced and remained steady throughout the day. After the decline of yesterday 1t was quite natural to expect an advance, as the general situation was unchanged, 1t was even little better. Reports from Man chester indicate a small increase in business there, particularly for India account. Reports from the south in dicate favorable weather throughout the belt. that the growing crop needs is plenty of sun and warm weather. The crop is reported about two weeks late owing to the indictment weather of last month. The market acts steady at the point awaiting fresh news. We expect a gradual improvement with all interest centered on the new crop Hubbard Bros. & Go.

WALL STREET TAXES
 BACK TRACK AT TER PERIOD OF ACTIVITY
Call Money Rates Were Lower and Supply of Time Funds Also Were More
 Liberal
By Associated Prsrs

New York April 2o.-Lacking stimulus or initiative from any responsible quar- ter. the stock market today lapsed into a state of dullness and irregularty, after an early period of activity and higher prices for speculative favorities, notably the oils.
 Steels, equipments and various other fndustrials which move in their wake were sluggish at reactions of 1 to points, while local fractions weakened in connection with prospective cancellation of existing leases.
 The course of negotiations between the American ship owners association and It's employees occasioned some pressure against marine issues and reacted mode rately upon rails.
 Financial and industrial factors were unaltered, but crop prospects offered greater encouragement. Call money rates were lower and the supply of time funds also were more liberal Little attention was paid to the British labor situation, but advices from London indicated re- taxation of recent tense conditions.
 Passing of the quarterly dividend by the B. F. Goodrich company and the un- favorable quarterly statement of the Re- public Iron and Steel company were among tne rev noteworthy lncloentS or the session. According to trade reviews, lower prices of the United States Steel Corporation have affected no material change in the conservative attitude of the consuming public.
 British and continental rates of ex- change strengthened perceptibly in re- sponse to latest reparations develop ments, but the German rate showed cor responding depression Weakness in the Greek rate was attributed to that coun- rys military reverses.
 The bond market was fairly active, but mainly at the expense of values. Liberty issues were lower, local utili- ties reflected coming reorganization plans and rails of the convertible type were again noticably affected. Total sales, par value, aggregated s10, 450000.
