NEW ORLEANS C. ,Ol

New orleans, Hay 24.-An un- favorable interpretation If the weekly crop report from tn gov ernment was the main 1T fluence in Il cotton market today and 1t put prices higher following early de- clines under private reports from New York estimating May tenders there at 60,Se0 bales and in the face of considerable liquidation of long contracts. Highest prices came al- ost on tse cie SC when the list stood at net gains of 13 to 2' points. The close itself was at net gains of to 16 points. July tr@..ed as high as 19.96c and closed at 19.92c.
 The first decline carried the mar ket off to 19.e6c for July and put the list to IS points under yester- d y's clc q. New buying met this re- cession b after -mall recoyeries. liquidation became heavy again and July sagged to 19.50c. net loss of 23 points. Other months were stead fer ard after the reading of t--e weekly report which were consid- cred much less flaw. rable than ex- pected, theic WIS a sharp rally to net advance5 of il t. l. points. Further small recession followed but in the late trading the tone became very steady aC in
 The market was active throu;-hout the session but was more of a trad ing affair than it has been of iats. The fact that tomo row e ds the May condition periodS and that a low condition percentage Is expected helped to bring a-ount underlying staadineSs.

BOTTOM FELL OUT
 OF WHEAT MARKET
 ON LARGE RECEIPTS
Corn and Oats Were in Full Sympathy With Wheat, While Provisions List
 Bolstered Up
By Associated Press

Chicago, May 24.--With an ap- parently endless flood of wheat rushing into Chicago to catch ex- pected high prices here before the end of this month, the wheat market suddenly gave way today under the strain. May delivery underwent a sheer fall of 6 cents. bushel in value. The market, taken as whole closed heavy, 1% cents to cents net lower, with May at $1.32 to 1.32A and July sl.22N to 1.22B Corn and oats both finished A cents to 7s down. In provisions the outcome was unchanged to cents higher.
 Hurried trading in wheat re- suited from belief of traders that the bulls in the market had aban- doned the fight for higher prices so far as this month was concerned. The basis for such a course was evi- dence that the leading houses identi- fled with the bull side of the market were selling today on a big scale, and that the chief buying support for prices came from the operations O. leading shorts, the concerns which have been actively opposing of late higher prices.
 Whether prevalent openion that the bull campaign in May wheat had reached an. end was correct or other wise, big receipts which were seem- ingly assured of the remainder of the month formed serve handicap against the bulls today from the start. Deliveries on May contracts this morning amounted to S22.000, bushels. and the fresh receipts here were s65 carloads.
 Besides the Liverpool market was unresponsive to yesterdays sharp advance here. domestic millers ap- peared to be holding back from pur- chasing, and no important crop damage news was in sight. Under such circumstances. rallies in price grew feeble. and at the last the market made swift downward plunge, losing two cents bushel for May in the final thirty minutes of the board of trade session.
 Corn and oats weakened with wheat
 Higher quotations on hogs finally brought about an upturn in the pro vision market, notwithstanding the bearish influence of the break in grain values

 The conference adjourned after two hours discussion but the steel men would not disclose whether any decisions had been reached. saying that was n mat ter for the Attorney General to give out.

 Vi New York, May 2i.-The market for coffee futures was quiet today. Covering by near-month shorts seemed largely improved for an open ing advance from to points. but after selling at 10.13c July eased off to 10.03c under scattering liquidation promoted by rather unsettled Brazil ian cables and talk of lower cost and freight offers. September sold off from 9.5Sc to 9.50c, but the close was a few points net up from the lowest on renewed covering, with last prices showing net advances of to points. Sales were estimated at 13,000 bags May, 10.20c: July, 10.06c; September, s.55c; Oct ober, 945c: De- cember, 9.25c; January. s.1sc; Janu- ary. s.1sc; March. 9.07c.
 Spot coffee was reported in slight 1y better demand at 10Ac to 107s c for Rio Is and 14Bc to 14Mc for Santos As. Cost and freight offers were irregular. averaging a shade lower. Santos 3s and 5s were offered at 13.50c to 14c for prompt and 13.10c to- 13.20c for future shipment. Rio Is were quoted at 10.15c for June and 10c for July. August shipment Amer ican credits.
 The official cables reported no change in the Rio market. with an advance of 20 reis in the dollar buy ing rate and decline of 1.32d in the Rio exchange on London. The early Santos cable was 50 to 275 reis lower. with a special cable later quoting the market unchanged to 150 reis higher. Brazilian port receipts zs.oo0; Jundia higher, receipts 5000.

EVENING UP OF MAY. CONTRACTS WASA
 COTTON r ACTOR
General Staple List Closed Steady at a Net Advance of Twelve to TWenty-tWo
 Points on the Day
By Associated Press

Kew York, May 24,-The feature in the cotton market was the final evening up of May contracts. Notice representing 5000 bales were is- sued making total tender of about 172, BOO bales for the month, but a little scattering May liquidoaion was readily absorbed and 1t was gen. etally supposed that the three in- terests which had taken previous notices were stopping those of today. The last sale of May was 21,23 and al a premium of f25 points over July. Fluctuations in later months were somewhat irregular but an early de- cline to 1918 cents for October was followed by rallies to 20.09 cents for that delivery or IS points net higher. October closed at 2004 with the general market closing very steady at d net advance of 12 to 22 points.
 The market opened barely steady at a decline of to II poionts on July and later deliveries which were influenced by lower Liverpool cables, the weather map, scattered local and southern selling. The offerings were not heavy, however, and the market became steadier when it was seen that the May notices were being talk en. The bullish weekly report of the weather bureau helped the tone of the afternoon market which was d. So influenced by trade buying of July late in the afternoon.
 This buying was through brokers believed to be operating for one of the firms credited with stopping May deliveries and was accompanied by rumors that arrangements were being made to ship cotton out of the local stock. Nothing definite could be learned in that connection beyond a statement that ocean freight room for 1, ,000 bales had been engaged for shipment out of New York to Liver pool. July contracts sold from 1887 to 2o.2a or 24 points net higher, -hile December advanced from 1868 to 2o.00 and last prices were within a few points of the best.
 Private cables reported scattering 1iquidation in Liverpool but claimed there was a continued good spot de- mand and that favorable reports were being received from Manches- ter. A firm tone was reported in the cloth market but business was said to be less active.

SLIGHT ADVANCE
 STOCK MARKET ON NEW RAIL ORDER
Call Loans Opened and Re- mained at the Recent High Rate of 4 Per Cent, Shad-
 ing to 3 1-2
By Associated Press

New York, May 24.-The stock markets initial response today to the lower freight rates ordered by the interstate commerce commission took 4 the form of a general though moder- ate advance in junior transportattons while representative issues were in- c1ined to react.
 On the whole. railroad and finan- cial interests were relieved at the long deferred action of the commits sion and the general reduction, aver aging about 10 per cent. was within popular expectations.
 The strength of some of the socon- dary rails. notably Chicago and AL ton common and preferred, Wabash common and preferred "A',' and LaNe Erie and Western. was due mainly to persistent reports that these sys- tems are likely to figure in mergers or traffic agreements.
 Proof that the railroad situation is brightenlng in its broader aspects was furnished by the resumption or dividends on the common stock Yf the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St Louis railway, controlled by New York Central interests.
 Other divisions of the stock list followed their irregular course of the preceding days of the week on more moderate dealings, their movements beng largely governed by ahe man euvers or expedients of professional interests.
 Independent steels rose and fell 10 the accompaniment of the conflicting rumors, extreme gains of l to almost points being shaded in the latter part of the session. Equipments were featured by Lima Locomotive cop- mon and preferred and affiliated is- sues and coalers were at their best in the final hour, when Heading first and second preferred showed gains of and S% points, respec- lively.
 Call loans opened and remained at the recent high rate of per cent. but shaded to 3ia per cent before the close. A slightly firmer tone was shown by time money, most Of the 30 and 60-day loans being made at 1 per cent, longer maturities ranging from A to Az per cent.
 All the leading foreign remit tances were appreciably better on an increase of business, especially in sterling, francs and lire. Bills on London got within the smallest frac- ton of their best for the last three wears and the Italian rate gained al- most 10 points.
 Eastern European quotations were heavy. however, and Far Eastern rates suffered q sharp reaction.
