NEW YORK COTTON FUTURES
 By Associated Press New York, June 7.-The market closed
NEW ORLEANS COTTON


 New Orleans, June LA sudden covering movement among shorts during the last half of the session in the cotton market today sent prices to new high levels for the movement upward that has been under way for some time past and put the trading months $5 bale and more. over the closing quotations of yesterday. It was the sharpest bulge in several weeks and it carried July up to 21.20c. At that price the list stood at gains of 94 to 109 points. The close was S1 to 104 points up. with July at 2i.07c.
 In the early trading and evening the middle part of the session the market hesitated at the advance and much of the gain made was done in a grudging way. In the early trading advances of to II points were caused by the rains over the belt and accounts of heavy rains in sections of Texas that were only re- gently flooded. Toward noon the advance was widened to 24 to 34 points. mainly on the very bullish showing of the weekly crop reports from the government and great many boil weevil complaints from many sections of the belt but the buying was not aggressive.
 During the last hour of he day the demand from shorts increased, suddenly sweeping the market bare of offerings. Prices rose to their highest and strong undertone was maintained to the close. Widest gains were made by the distant months. which were affected by boil weevil reports more than were the nearer positions.

DRY WEATHER IN BELT SENDING UP
 PRICE 0F WHEAT
Other Grains Went Up in Pro- portion, While the Provis- ions List Was on a See-
 saw All Day
By Associnted Press

Chicago, June 7.-Dry weather com plaints from the northwest together with reports from Illinois and Ohio telling of chineh bugs did good deal tolay to lift the value of wheat. Prices closed firm. l &c to 2Mc net Higher, July. s1.13M to $f.f4h and September. $11s% to s1.14. Corn finished ss c to Ac higher. oats at h c decline to asc advance, and provisions un- changed to 27c off
 Nearly the top prices of the day were prevailing at the close in the wheat market, and there was no time when prices were as low as yester- days finish. Apprehension of a less favorable crop outlook was un- accompanied by any specific claims of actual damage yet, but it was generally conceded that rains were needed in parts of the northwest, and that subsoil moisture was lacking in some sections. Talk Of frost In Cam ada counted also as a bullish factor, and so likewise did relative firm ness shown by the Liverpool market in the face of yesterdays decline on this side of the Atlantic.
 There was strong demand for wheat by exporters here, and they took all the hard wheat offered which, however, in the aggregate was small. Offerings on the spot market were light. and the few cars which arrived in Chicago were said To be billed through to an eastern null. It was reported that ten loads or NO. hard wheat were sold from here~ at lie over July, eff Montreal
 corn sympathized with the wheat auVance. There was talk current, too. that the after planting movement of corn to market was practicallw over Prices of oats were inclined to drar owing to liberal stocks in sight.
 Provisions lacked support.

SUDDEN CHANGE ID ACTIVITY IN
 COTTON MARKET General Staple List Closed Strong at a Net Advance of Eighty-tWo to Ninety
 nine Points
By Associated Press

New York, June 7.-There was a sudden change from dullness and hesitation to activity and strength in the cotton market today. October contracts advanced from 2G2Sc, the closing quotation of yesterday, to 21.27c, with all the new crop posi- tions making new high records for the season. October closed at 2l.22c, with the general market closing strong at net advance of S2 to 99 points.
 The market opened steady at an advance of five to Is points owing to relatively steady Liverpool cables and private reports of rains In the south. Liverpool bought d little cot ton here while there was a scattering local and Wall street demand, but 1t was supplied by further liquidation of long accounts and there also ap- peared to be a little southern selling. The failure of the early rain news to promote more buying was evident ly appointment to people who bought at the opening and prices sagged off to within to 5 points of yesterdays closing figures during the morning, with July selling at 20.40c and December at 20.24c. The weekly report of the weather bureau was considered about stand off and was without any immediate sf- feet on the market, but the detailed weather reports for the day con- firmed the early rain news and after very quiet morning the market became more active and excited dur ing the afternoon. Some of the larger interests who were credited with having taken profits on long cotton before the bureau. were supposed to be rehuying, This started covering by recent sellers for reaction which seemed to be further stimulated by bullish private crop adyices and re- ports of a firmer spot basis in the south. July was rather slow in fol- lowing the advance. but sold up to 21.22c, while December advanced to 2t20c, or S4 to 99 points net higher. The close was at very nearly the best on continued covering and re- buying. No exports were reported today. Exports so far this season, 5,350,S7S. Port receipts, 12S39. U. $. port stocks, S57632. Private cables attributed the advance in Liverpool to covering and said trade demand was restricted by the holiday in Manchester.

Apart From Lack of Public h. terest, Developments Most iy Helpful to Markets

New York. June 7.-Higher quo fat4ons for various speculative is- sues dominated ly pools or profess sional interests ana further trreg- ularity or heaviness among shares of recognized value featured todays broad but in conclusive session Of the stock exchange.
 Apart from the lack of public in- terest. developments were mostly helpful to the markets constructive side. Call loans fell to last months 8 lowest quotations. supplies of time funds increased and commercial pa per was n better demand
 As an indication of better indus trial con iitions still high prices 1re quoted for finished products in the Ohio steel district and ire West Virginia came word of the reopening of the steel mills after year of suspended operations
 Dealers reported a steady increase in the inquiry 4or cop CT at IA cents for July and August deliveries and additional advances were announced in other base -Aosals.
 In oil trade predictions for yet higher prices Tor erut ard refined products were current.
 Tn major portion of the days turnover in stocks eneompassed the oils. motors. steels, minor rails, with a liberal admixture of coppers, ship pings, secondary equipments. chem icals and the usual miscellaneous is- sues. Individual features of strength ansonr these shares included Cosden. Maxwell "A" and "B," Studebaker, which threw off its early heaviness, I4ackawanna, Midvale and Republic eteeis, Lima Locomotive, Pressed Steel Car, Chicago and Alton com mon a.d preferred and Iowa central.
 Consolidated Gas. Montana Power and Mackay companies were among the strong utilities.
 United States Steel eased In the later dealings and Mexican Petro- feum, majority of the domes..; cils and numerous specialties dis closed at recessions of fractions to a point. Investment rails were slug Eish. ignoring better earnings, as illustrated In the case of Seal oard Air Line, where heavy deficit in 1920 was replaced by large gain for 1921. Sales amounted to 1,o50,000 shares.
 Trading in foreign exchanges were light and the British rate forfeited part of its recent advance on profit taking, German marks were better, although still considerably under their gain of last week. Mixed changes were recorded by allied re- mittances and similar tendencies were shown by neutrals, aside from the Dutch rate, which was at It's maximum for the current movement

 New York, June 7.-Cotton goods were steady today. Narrow print cloths sold a little better and there was better call for spot deliveries of some of the wide staples. Joh- bers reported a more widely scat tered trade in domestics. Worsted yarns were in better call for kni-- ting purposes and worsted fabrics also sold better. A break in burlitp prices was attributed to collapse of speculation at Calcutta. Knit goods were in moderate call.
