Unique Bits From
Fashions Realm to
Please Everybody

Venetian fuehsia, that gorgeous
shade between crimson and cerise,
is effectively used at present in
smart little hats of velvet. These
hats are so splendid in coloring that
they require very little ornamental
tion.
The ideal frock for this stage of
the summer season is one of those
foulards of crepe de chine in two
colors. A dark blue, for example,
peppered all over with tan spots of
various sizes and of no particular
pattern.
Fur almosts smothers the newest
coats. Of sunptuous material, they
end at the neck in high ermine
collars-or collars of mole or seal,
as the case may be-and they dis
appear at the knees into a fluff of
12-ineh-wide fur banding.
Among the bathing suits which
despite the lateness of the season
are being offered today in bewild-
ering variety, is one with n novel
motif of embroidery. This is div
ing girl, who in red, black, orange
and blue, dives all the way across

COTTON ASCENDS
 ON STOP NOTICES
May Jumps 115 Points With Close Showing
 Rise Of g To no

NEW YORK, April 25.-The feature in the cotton market today was the very sharp advance which followed the stopping of few notices and carrying the price up to 3O.7Oc for May con tracts, or. 115 points net higher.f New crop months were slow to follow, but October sold at 24.95c or B points above yesterdays closing quotation. The market closed very steady at net ad- vances of g to no points. The opening was steady at unchanged prices to an advance of q points on relatively steady cables. There was selling on the favorable early weather map and prices eased off during the early trading to 29.59c for May and 24.37c for October. The May notices were estimated at only 1,700 bales, however, and the market soon turned firmer on covering by May and July shorts. The western belt forecast for lower temperature seemed to stimulate buying and the advance be- came more rapid late in the afternoon on bullish weekend figures and better rejorts from the stock market.
 All positions made new highs for the day in the late trading and the close was within five or six points of the best. Two private crop reports were published, one pointing to an increase of 6 per cent and the other of s per cent in acreage.

WHEAT E LIFTED
 BY COLD IN WEST
Uncertainty Over Pro- posed Legislation Also
 Aids In Advance

CHICAGO, April 25.vC Cold weather over Canada and the Dakotas did good deal today to lift wheat prices here, and so did uncertainty over proposed legislation at Washington. The clos ing in the wheat .mar;ses was firm, 5s to ,'5sc net higher. May Sl.03A to $1.03% and July $1.05A@ssc to $1.0533s, with corn ssGl 1sc to 34c up, oats showing 1s to X@%c gain, and provisions at 5c. to 15c decline.
 Upturns in wheat values. began early aided by q slight advance in Liver pool and by the fact that offerings here. lacked volume. Dearth. of selling was ascribed largely. to renewed chances that farm bills designed to advance prices might yet receive the approval of Congress before the end of the pres- ent legislative session. On the other hand, buying which for time ap- peared to come chiefly from. houses with northwestern connections was attributed to reports that field work and plant growth in the spring crop, belt. was being hindered.
 Highest prices of the day in the wheat market were scored during the late dealings, and the close was at the top figures reached. Much of the buying at the last was said to be on eastern account, and to be due to some important financial move about to be announced, referring possibly to sub stantial advances about the establish nent of new German credits in this country.
 Notwithstanding some enlargements of corn receipts here, corn and oats responded readily to the advance of the wheat market. Some buying of corn was asserted to be against the stock of corn at Duluth
 Liquidating sales of May lard weak ened the provision market.

SUGAR MARKET

NEW YORK. April 25.-while no fur therl changes occurred in the raw sugar market today. there seemed to be bet ter inquiry at the 6.2sc duty paid level for eabans, with offerings lighter Sales includsd 20, 900 Thgs of Cubans and 2O.- 900 bas Porto Ricans for May shipment,
 Rawsugar futures opened . to points lower under liquidation, due to the issu- ance of liberal May notices, but al good demand for shorts and trade interests rallied prices F to l4 points above the previous close.
 Realizing checked the upward move ment and brought about partial reactions. leaving final prices 8 to s points net higher. May closed 4.53c; July, 4.73c; September, 4.74c; December. 4.35c.
 No changes were noted in refined prices which are listed from 7.SO to S.25c for fine granuated. A good inquiry was re- ported at the inside figure.
 Refined futures were nominal.
