The cotton market opened steady in
response to relatively higher cables.
Although July showed no change
from Saturday close october and
December opened 2 to 6 points up.
Values remained at the initial fig
ures for a time but later a good de-
mand from spot interests for July
developed.
July traded up to 1885, october
1889 and December 1858. or 6 TO Q
points above Saturdays close. At
the end of the first hour the market
was steady and at the highs.
The market ruled steady through
out the morning due to the appar-
ent completion Of July liquidation
here and in New York. That de-
livery remained at the earlier high
while later positions further i'm
proved TO 1871 I1r october and
1850 for December, or 10 to II

The official forecast for thunder

Whether they came don at some
isolated point in the Azores, losing
the use of their radio on lighting in
water after sending a message OF
their arrival. or whether they de-
cided to continue straight on to New
York without stopping. were queS-
tons unsolved early today.
Official announcement OF the
search orders said the planes plight
was not considered desperate, since
favorable weather conditions pre-
vailed between the Iberian PENN
sula and the Azores and the huge
seaplane was entirely s~eaworthy.
IL was explained the planes radio
would cease to function once the
plane alighted on the water. and the
silence Of Major Franco and his
companions was not considered ON
nous.
The semi-official Monday news
paper, Noticiero del Lunes however,
quoted the premier. General Primo
de Rivera, as saying: The aviators
must unhappily be considered as
lost. The premier added a previous
report of their safety at San Miguel
island, in the Azores group. made
public by himself Saturday, was
"inexact."
Confirms Fears
The premier's Saturday statement
and the subsequent official note
confirmed fears which had been
growing for hours. Although lack
ing details General Primo de RI
vera's announcement that the Jupi-
ter had arrived at San Miguel ISL
and Saturday was considered as au-
thoritative, and caused tremendous
rejoicing throughout Spain.
The Western Union operator at
Horta, Azores, said the company's
station at San Miguel island, on the
east OF the archipelago. reported the
flyers were not there. He had heard
they Had alighted between Formigas
and Santa Maria islands, at the ex-
IRENE southeast of the group but
he had no confirmation.
