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.” Galveston, May 24.—Cotton firm; middling 10 9-10 e; net receipts 17 bales, gross 17; sales none; stock 7.557 bales.

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.
