TUMBLE IS REGISTERED IN I WHEAT PRICES YESTERDAY
 ON CANADIAN IMPORTATION
Rx Associated Press

Chicago, April 1S.--Wheat prices tum- bled today owing largely to continued importation Of Canadian wheat and to q sharp break in values at Winnipeg The market closed heavy at SAc to 4Ac net lower with May s12 to $1.241z and July l.05H to s1.05h. Corn lost ssc to 24c and oats iac to 5sDlc The finish in provi- sions was unchanged to 35c down.
 At first the wheat market showed con- siderable strength as a result of fear that low temperatures had damaged the new crop. Field advces, however. in- dcated that the damage, if any, woul3 prove to be of only a miner character. Then the attention of traders shifted to big receipts in the northwest, swollen by arrivals from Canada both steamship and rail Uncertainty as to progress of the emergency tariff bill in the Senate tended also to give some advantage to the bears. At this juncture word came of a collapse of prices at Winnipeg, news which greatly accelerated the downward swing of the market here. Selling pressure was given impetus at the last by the fact that the last visible supply report was much smaller than had been looked for. Corn and oats were weak but were steadied somewhat as a result of export sales of 5000o0 bushels of corn and by signs of some foreign call for oats. In provisions higher quota tions on hogs were soon more than coun- terbalanced by the bearish action of grain.

LIQUIDATION AND
 SOUTHERN HEDGING
 FEATURE |NCOTTON
The General List Closed Bare- ly Steady at a Net Decline of Eight to Seventeen
 Points
By Associnted Pre.n

New York, April 1s.-The cotton mar ket was comparatively quiet today, with prices easing off under scattering liqui- dation and~southern hedge selling. July contracts declined from 12s5c to 126Ic and closed at 1267c, with the general list closing barely steady at net decline of 8 to r points
 The market was irregular at the start, opening , points lower to points higher.
 Active months sold up few points right after the call on the higher Liver pool cables and reports of a good open ing tone in the stock market, but prices soon turned easier under small south ern Offerings and liquidation by recent buyers. The latter may have been due partly to disappointment that over Sun
 day reports showed no change in the British coal strike situation, and the set back here was also promoted by the ca sier ruling of the later Liverpool cables. Bullish comment on weather con- ditions in the south failed to inspire any support of consequence, while the decline during the middle of the day was pre- noted by the weakness of grain and less favorable Wall street reports. May con tracts sold off from 12.2Sc to I2.O4c and October from 13.36c to 13,10c, or 10 to 2 points net lower. Later trading was very quiet with last prices showing rallies Of 6 or points from the lowest on cover- ing. There was considerable May liqui- daton during the day, but hedge shorts were buyers of that position against sales of July and October, and it was re- ported that the July premium over May was sufficient to meet the cost of carry ing cotton forward. Private cables from Liverpool said that Manchester buying mad absorbed hedge selling there during the earlier trading. Local brokers at tributed the comparatively small volume Of business here to the continued uncer- tainty of the British coal mine stua- ton, which is expected to come to a head Friday and disposition to await de- with reference to German war reparatlons.

NEW YORK COTTON
By Associated Press
New Orleans Cotton By Associafed Press

New Orleans, April 1S.-The tendency was to sag in the cotton market today, mainly because of the disposition of buyers of last week to realize. Ab- normally cold weather in the belt, which private messages said had done more or less damage to young cotton, hardly had the effect of steadying the market at the decline. It aroused no buying power. even after the posting of the forecast calling for continued cold weather and much frost in the eastern half of the belt tonight. Momentarily on the open ing call the near months were points higher, but after May touched 11.9Sc sell ing pressure started and the decline did not stop until the list was 19 to 20 points under the closing quotations of last week. No important recoveries occurred during the day, and the close was at net losses of 16 to 20 points May traded down to 1I.74c and closed at that price.
 According to private messages, frost occurred at many points in the interior of the belt and wiped out much cotton, which will have to be replanted Predic- tions were made by traders on the long side that the governments weekly review of crop conditions this week would be highly unfavorable. It was considered that the cold weather, coming on top of the heavy rains at the end of last week, would tend to Keep the soil moist and in such shape that it would be several days before planting can be resumed Considerable comment was caused by the rumor that firm in the southwest had put out an acreage estimate in which the decrease was put at 31.2 per cent.

PaImer's Weekly Cotton Letter

Preliminary acreage reports indi- cate heavy general reduction. Fertil- 'izer consumption even more so. The weather, therefore, promises to be the main issue in determining this years yield Wet weather would invite dis aster; high temperatures would com plete it. Vital clements in the soil are lacking. Cotton could not thrive un- der such conditions if handicaped by bad weather. A perfect growing sea son is the exception rather than the rule. Production, therefore, may fall short of anything seen in generation or more.
 The bear faction in the new crop months is becoming cautious. The ele- ment of chance involved in this sea son's growth is too great>to warrant new crops at this time. Bearish op- erations are likely to be confined to May and July. principally July. There is too much cotton readily availabls in New York and elsewhere to justify any attempt at bull manipulation in the summer months. We favor the sale of July against the purchase of December. Should bad weather develop, or European politics improve, or a re :. vival in American industries and gen eral business set in, the December op- ton might very eaesily run zoo to 3oG points over July. This sort of a De- cember premium existed in the fall of 1918. In our opinion it is almost cer- tain to be duplicated this year under existing onditions.-Raymond Palmer & Co.

New York. April 1S.-tSpecial. )--Advices from Liverpool indicated steadier mar ket, with Manchester buying offsetting hedge selling. A moderate demand being in evidence, consequently our market opened up and remained steady but very dull with little outside business Now that the British strike question is thing of the past, interest will be centered on the new crop and the weather.
 From all reports, the cotton belt has experienced very bad weather for cot ton growing. Several reports have been that in a good many places renewed planting had to be done. On top of that we have the news of very severe storm or hurricane in Arkansas and good deal of rain throughout the Memphis district. all very unfavorable. Possibility of large exports of cotton is being talked about Anything in the way of removing our present carry-over stock will be very beneficial and an aid in clearing the way for new business. We expect a gradual improvement.- Bros 6 Co.
