Weekly Cotton Review
Bx Assorinted presa

New York. June t7--There were sharp declines in the cotton market during the past week with both July and october contracts making new low records for the season during
 today's trading. The price for Oc- tober deliveries sold as low as 1f.S6c, compared with 13.9c. the high point of last month, and 12.o5c the prev ious low record for that position.
 The market held fairly well during the earlier part of the week owing to scattering crop complaints and reported prospects for an early set clement of British labor troubles. These features failed to create any
 general buying interest, however.
 while there was a steady dribble of July liquidation accompanied by re- ports of further arrivals here in- tended for delivery on contracts anc the market turned very weak later on less favorable labor news ana renewal of favorable crop reports.
 According to cable adyices received today the wage dispute In the Man chester mills has been settled but British coal miners voted against an acceptance of the terms proposed by the coal mine owners. Private ca bIes while noting the adverse vote. said that the miners were gradually drifting back to work and that there
 would be further conferences The census report showing domestic mil consumption of 439,S84 bales for May
 was slightly above the forecast, put was not regarded as justifying any
 change in estimates of the probable carryover and a statement by the bureau on cotton grades was con-s sidered a disappointment from the bullish standpoint
 The figures did not represent any actual count but the estimates sub mitted suggested that only "A per cent of the cotton held in public stora re was too low in grade to be rendered on contracts. Complaints of too much rain were beginning Q reach the trade from the southwest during the earlier part of the week, but clearing weather has now ap- peared in that section
 few beneficial showers nave been reported in the western peit which was complaining of droughty conditions but more rain would prob : ably be considered desirable east or the river The last weekly report for the weather bureau suggested that the crop was making soou progress on the average and conse- uuently strengthened the expecta- ton that end of June figures wouih show a considerable improvement on the decline of Thursday and Friday-

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
 By Associated Press

New Orleans, La, June 16.-New low levels for the season again were made by cotton today. the market falling under continued heavy liquidation, mixed with considerable short selling. All months in the con tract department made new lows, July sinking to 10.51c. At this price the list showed net losses of 6S to "A points. In the late trading shorts realized profits and caused reactions from the lowest of $1 a bale or so, the close showing net losses on the day of 5S to 57 points. with July at 10.65c.
 In the early trading for short pe- riod there was no definite trend to values. After opening somewhat lower, the market came back on fairly heavy buying by traders who were looking for a reaction from the decline of yesterday and this buying soon became heavy enough to put the trading months 2 to points over the final quotations of yesterday. July traded up to 11.25c.
 The report that the British coal miners had voted to continue their strike started heavy selling and a sharp break followed. This was the signal for further unloading among longs, already demoralized by the break of yesterday. The market weakened rapidly and for consid- erable period got no support from any quarter. Late in the day it acted well. cleaned out of it's long interest, and shorts started to buy covers in order to collect their profits they found a much smaller supply of contracts to work on

Torrid Weather Is Cause for Aduance
 In Wheat Quotations
Ry AasncInfed Presa

Chicago, June 17.--Torrid weather did good deal today to make wheat prices advance. Closing prices were unsettled, 2% 9sMc net higher, with July s1.SlA @1.SlAa and Septemper s1.24A@1.24&. Corn finished, 2ss O 2s.c up, and oats gained lA @11ac. In provisions the outcome was un- changed to 2c higher.
 Apprehension as to the effect Of hot weather on wheat had relation to the spring crop, and was intensi- fled by forecasts that abnormally high temperatures would continue several days. Another bullish influ- ence was knowledge that first threshings of the winter crop in Mis- souri showed disappointing returns. Assertions that 750,000 bushels had been bought for export by way of the Gulf of Mexico tended also to lift values. Offerings were light un- til the market had jumped as much as sc a bushel In some cases. At that level, houses with eastern con nections became free sellers, and re- actions ensued. On the breaks, however, demand broadened out, with the July delivery displaying particular strength as the day reached R clcse Bull leaders pre- dicted that there would be no ma terial accumulation of stocks during July
 Strength in corn was largely due to possibilities of a drouth scare. Oats were somewhat affected by re- ports of crop deterioration. Dullness prevailed in the provision trade and hindered the market from sympathiz- ing much with upturns in the value of grain and hogs.

GENERAL SELLING
 VAS RENEWED IN
 COTTON TRADING
Staple Market Closed Easy at a Net Decline of Forty-four to Fifty Points on
 the Day
By Associated Press

New York, June 17--There was a renewal of general selling in the cotton market today which sent Oc- tober down 10 11S6c, or 61 points net lower, and made new low rec ord for the life of the contract July also made new low record for the season, selling at 111Oc. or 55 points net lower. Rallies followed on COW ering and trade buying but were not fully maintained with the market closing easy at net decline of A t. 50 points
 The market was fairly steady at the start, owing to relatively steady big break of yesterday and scattered buying for a rally. The opening was points higher to points lower anu as soon as over night selling orders had been absorbed, active positions worked about s to 9 points net high CT with October selling at l2.56c and December at 13.05c. This bulge brought out increased offerings however, suggesting liquidation Of old long accounts, and the market became very weak late in the morn Ills OH LCPoflS lIldl DIitiSli COaA ihtIT CTS had voted against the acceptance of terms proposed for ending the strike and the unsettled ruling Of the stock market. Stop loss orders were uncovered on the decline which extended from 13.05c for December to 12.37c and carried the active months 5S to 61 points below last nights closing quotations. The vol ume of liquidation then subsided while it as reported that trade in terests had been heavy buying on a scale down, and the market rallied 20 or 30 points from the lowest fol- lowing reports that the Lancashire mill strike had been settled, and that in spite of the adverse vote, British coal miners were gradually drifting back to work. The buying by the trade, however, was less ac. tive on the bulges and last prices were easy under liquidation by early buyers. Western and Wall street interests were considered the big sellers again today, with brokers re- porting comparatively little pressure from the south The week end fig ures showing smaller spinners talk ings than last week and an increase in the worlds visible supply were probably a late factor. Exports to- day, 50,95S, making 4,774,440 so far this season. Port receipts, 27,576. United States port stocks, l,6l6,392.

LOW RECORDS WERE MARKET FEATURES
 ON WALL STREET
Cashing In for Profits Gave List an Upward WhirI In the Last Hour of
 Trading
By Associated Press

New York, June 17.--NeW low rec ords for one to six years were estab- lished .today in every important di- vision of the list, as liquidation and short selling continued to force down prices in the stock exchange.
 Some steadiness was manifested at the outset on short covering in Louis vile and Nashville, induced by the proposed stock dividend This was neutralized, however. by weakness of Crucible Steel, which forfeited nearly points on an overnight div idend cut.
 Rallies in speculative favorites failed to hold when United States Steel fell 1A points to 731A, the low record since 1915. Other steels, as well as railway equipments. motors. ahippings, tobaccos, chemicals food and mail order issues, figured in the further reversal at gross declines of 2 to points.
 Oils were confusing, particularly Mexican petroleum, with an extreme advance of 2A points and a net loss of 1A. The gain in Louisville and
 
 Nashville proved only temporary, and all rails encountered a setback Tn the last half of the session. Chesa- peake and Ohio falling points on further postponement of dividend ac- ton.
 Cashing in for profits gave the list an upward whirl in the last half hour, but fresh offerings of long stock soon effected a reaction, losses of nearly 1 to 3 points prevailing at the unsettled close. Sales amounted to 765,o00 shares.
 The one encouraging feature was the plethora of call money at 51a per cent. All foreign exchanges strength ened. Liberty bonds were mainly lower and other domestic issues showed mixed changes at the close. Among interests, French municipals and Mexican government bonds were heavy. Total sales, par value, Ss'- 675,000.

SUGAR MARKET By Associated Press

New York, June 17.-There was no change in the local raw sugar market today with centrifugal quoted at 5c. There were sales of 10000 bags of Porto Ricos for June-July shipment at 4c and at the close more was of fered at that level without being taken.
 There was little more activity in raw sugar futures and closing prices were irregular. ranging from five points decline to four points advance. Near positions were easier under scattered liquidation and commission house selling, while later deliveries were steadier on covering and trade buying. Final bids, July 2.84c; Sep tember 2.74c; December 2.5Sc; March. 2.51c.
 The market for refined sugar was easier and prices were reduced 15 points to the basis of 5.60c for fine granulated. the lowest level recorded in over five years. No Improvement was noted in the demand with buying still confined to nearby requirements.
 Refined futures were firmer, not withstanding the decline in the spot market and closing prices were to Is points net higher with a little more activity noted The advance was due to covering and buying of September by leading trade inter- est, which some thought was against sales for exports Closing bids, July and August. 5.45c; September and October 5.50c.
