Green & Co.’s report on cotton futures says:
“The movement has been free and the tone
buoyant, with the demand directed principally
toward September and October, on which there
was a gain of 12 to 10 points, with other options
showing only 6to 7 points advance. The stimu
lus to the demand was thought to be found in
the belief of a scarcity of old cotton, with pros
pects that buyers wants were likely to lie
greater during the early fall than at any other
period. A large portion of the inquiry came
from outside sources on investment orders, but
there was also some local buying, as well as
covering against short interest, not before
known to exist.”

Chicago, May 24.—Local rains and the show
ery condition generally increased the number of
realizers at the opening this morning. Receipts
of wheat (400 cars), a very large share of which
came in over the Chicago. Milwaukee and St.
Paul, and Chicago and Northwestern roads, bore
up apparently the prediction that the recent rail
cut on big grangers was going to, bring a good
supply of wheat here at once, and this, too, hod
a weakening effect upon prices. The crowd was
very bearish and determined to sell June wheat
It lias currently reported and generally credited
among them ihat t he clique was unloading Juno
and changing to July. Consequently there was
a disposition to sell the former and buy the lat
ter, and July really became more active. June
wheat opened at’ 89c. dropped immediately to
88%e and recovered gradually to 88%c, where it
was held steady for some time. Toward midday
it. again dropped to 88c, at which point the
clique came in with buying orders. They took
everything offered at 88c and did not allow the
market to go below that. For the latter part of
the morning session June ranged between 88®
SB%c, with trading fairly active in June, July
aud August. June closed for the day at 87%c.
July opened at 88c and sold off 2 jioiuts during
the day, closing at 80c. Trading in corn Was
heavier than for several months. Corn opened
weak at 40%©40%c for July, and sold down to
40%c in the first hour's trading, and afterward
to 46c, at which figure it closed for the day. Pro
visions were weak all day. July ribs started at
$7 32% and closed at $7 25. Lard sold down
from $0 95 to $0 80.
