COTTON COVERS
 ! BROAD RANGE
Close Of Week Shows 83. Point Gain For July And
 s,73 For October

NEW ORLEANS, May 1.-The cot ton market fluctuated in fairly wide range last week, but the final result showed net gain of S3 points on July, while October, the principal new crop trading month, gained I3 points. The discount of the October position under July was widened during the week and at the close the difference between the two months was 402 points.
 The dominating influences in the market was the tight position of the near months and the character of the weather and crop news. The danger to shorts in near months was Illustrated by the advance on Friday of full 100 points in both May and July and al though both these positions eased off rather sharply in Saturdays trading. owing to reported private settlement effected by big operator in New York with the principal holders of the long side of the May position. the experi- ence of the May shorts only served to emphasize the danger of a squeeze threatening the large short interest be- lieved to exist in the July position.
 A brief spell of more favorable weather at the beginning of the week cauSeAYsN m0uefAtS reCesstOH oL PhhScss but Asa Liverpool held firm and the weather soon changed for the worse with cold rains and unseasonably low temperatures the losses of the early week were soon recovered, Advices from the interior particularly from the western and central portions of the belt, to the effect that night temperatures have been entirely too cold for the healthy progress of young cotton or for the proper germinatien of the seed in late ly planted areas, have caused alarm among shorts and induced considerable covering, culminating in the sharp Gir turn of Friday.
 The weather promises to be the con trolling factor in the market for the near future and prices will, it is claim ed, advance or decline as the weather continues unfayorable or shows change for the better. A period of warm, fair weather would, it is held, do much to improve crop prospects.

 Discussions of South American loans monop0lized interest negotiations for immediate foreign borrowings. Eorma- tion of new banking group was re- ported under way to handle q $6,0O0,- 900 loan to Peru. Because of the gov ernments recent controversy with it's financial agents here over an option on future financing this development aroused the interest of the financial district.
 Arrangements, however, were not completed fer the sale of this loan or another which Bolivia has been seek ing. Estimates of Bolivia's requirements were reduced from SIC, 900 to $3,- 900, 900, the amount needed for rail- road construction projects. Aside from 3,O00, 900 pound loan which Argen- tina was said to be negotiating in Lon don, the government again sounded out bankers here for temporary $0,000,- 600 credit to finance departmental ex- penditures.
 Favorable Market Likely
 When the United States treasury enters the market in June for addi- tiOnai funds to retire short term mat urities it will be accommodated with the lowest interest rate since the 31a per cent Liberty Loan was floated in 1917, according to present indications. The ruling of call money at 31a per cent since the change in the bank rate and the recent shading of short time loans to below 4 per cent foreshadow a favorable market in, which the gov. ernment can transact its $500, GOO, 900 operation.

BOND VALUES
 CONTINUE RISE Absence Of Speculative Activity Dulls Edge
 Of Trading

NEW YORK, May 11.-tBy Asso- ciated Press )-Bond prices slowly forged ahead last week, although the absence of speculative activity dulled the edge of trading. After the initial furry occasioned by the reduction in the rediscount rate had subsided a temporary reaction was considered nat ural, but a steady demand for high grade investment issues imparted a firm tone to the market.
 Failure of new financing to develop on larger scale was disappointing to bond circles. The number of new issues in preparation, however, was swelled during the week and the delay in placing them on the market was said to be due to technical consider ations. Offerings aggregated approxi- mately $50.000,000, less than half the total for the preceding week.
 German Loan Discussed
 With the return of J. r. Morgan to Wall Street, interest was revived in the German loan.
