Scattered Support and Covering By Shorts Caused Rise in Cotton Firmer Late Cables From Liv- ( erpool and Reports of Good Spot Demand Were Followl—l ed by More Active Demand for Futures (By Associated Press.) NEW YORK. April 6.—Tbe cotton market 1 opened quiet today and early fluctuations were irregular. Liverpool was relatively easy and ■ after opening steady at a decline of 1 point to an advance of 3 points, prices here workea 1 off a point or two under scattering liquidation. ’ Later cables were firmer, liowever, while there ■ appeared to be some further trade buying of 1 old crop months, and the undertone was fairly • steady. . After selling at 12.00 early July eased off to 1 11.96 and then rallied to 11.98 before the end of the first hour. A private report Indicating an increase of 8.6 per cent in acreage was pub lished before the opening, but evidently failed to stimulate any fresh business. One of the < cables from Liverpool said the market showea ’ a steady tone owing to tbe absence of southern hedging, while another said that sentiment there was bearish owing to expectations of a long war. . Firmer late cables from Liverpool and reports of a good spot demand st Savannah were fol lowed by a more active demand in the cotton market. There was some further scattering May liquidation, and that delivery failed to fnllv share to the idvance. but sold up to i 1186. or about 3 points net higher, while July sold at 12.03. and October 12.20. or 6 to 7 points alxtve last night's closing figures shortly after midday. The market showed continued firmness diirina tbe middle of the afternoon with July selling un to 12.06 and October to 12.24. with the gen era! list ruling som- 6 to 12 points above last night's closing figures.

April 6.—Wheat prices developed strength today as a result of anxiety as to the lateness of seeding in the northwest. Some weakness at times, however, was shown on account of predictions of increased Argentine shipments to Europe. Domestic crop reports were .of a mixed ebaraetter. Opening prices, which ranged from %c decline to ad- vance, with May at $1.18^4®1.18%, and July ut $1.16%®1.17%, were followed’ by moderate gains all around, Interrupted temporarily by a rather sharp setback. The wheat market later headed downward again, followed bv welcome rains in tbe south west. Tue Ohio state report and bullish guess ing regarding the government report to be is sued tomorrow failed to act as much of an off set. Closing quotations were unsettled %®%c to %4 t %c net lower with May at $1.17% and July at $1.16%. Corn reflected the changes io the wheat mar ket. For the most part, trading was confined to pit speculators. After opening unchanged to %c higher, prices scored further upturns, though not without undergoing transient dips. Gossip of export sales tended to sustain the corn market in the late dealings. fne close was steady at %e to %c net advance. Oats hardened witth other grain. Business, however, lacked volume.

WALTON STORM VERY BULLISH ON COTTON Mr. Walton Storm, of the firm of Johnston, Storm & Co., of New York, who is in Atlanta attending the meetings of the American Cotton Manufacturers associat lon. says he is very bull ish on the cotton market at the present time. The' situation as we see it: In regard to acreage, our private reports predict an Increase of approximately 10 per cent in Texas, which would amount In round figures to a little over a million acres. Our traveling representatives predict a small Increase amounting to about 5 per cent In Georgia, which is tho second largest producing state, such in crease being made for the purpose of offset ting a decreased use of fertilizers. Our branch office managers and traveling representatives give us to understand that the Mississippi and Alabama acreage will not be any larger than last year, If as large. North and South Caro lina, we are led to believe, will increase very moderately. If at all, but to look at the matter from its most bearish standpoint, let us say that we will have an increase of 10 per cent, or approximately 8.000,000 acres in the 1916 growth year. What will this Indicate with two facts kept in mind, namely, oroutb in Txxas, that Is to say, lack of winter rains, which is the greatest damnation that can be inflicted upon this otherwise much blessed sec tion, and which Is usually the basic element of a very drastic July and August rise; taken tn cx.nfunction with the boll weevil’s spread through Alabama and South Georgia, and taken in con junction with the deficiency in quality and quan tity of fertilizers used in the heavy fertilizing states of North and South Carolina and north Georgia? We refer to tbe 1912-13 crop, which was made on an acreage V>f 34,766,000 acres, and v hich produced 14,552,000 bales. The 1910-11 crop, which sowed an acreage of 33,419,- 000 acres, and which produced 12,075,000 bales. The crop of 1908-09, which was 33.370,000 acres and which produced 18,817,000 bales. The first and last of tbe referred to crops were consid ered, In those cotton years, bumper crops, due tc the heavy use of fertilisers and Intense culti vation. Basing our outlook for the balance of this cot ton fiscal year, that Is to say, including the 1915-16 crop delivery options, and taking into consideration the prospect* as far as they can be analyzed at present, effecting the new crop, we find that tbe underlying facts effecting tbe summer option* are mostly bullish. JCHN I. CLARK & CO.’S COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, April 6. —The ominous quiet lately In International politics is as much a factor in tbe waiting attitude of speculation and the markets as tbe undefined and contrast ing views of new crop and distant trade pros pects. Something will happeu one of these days to break the deadlock; meanwhile interest in tbe market is narrowing down to that solid portion which Is independent of changes or fully prepared to meet all surprises. Reviews of the cotton situation, invariably point out that a million bales or over Is yet carried in the interior. Evidently, not suffi cient consideration is given to changed condi tions. With the financial and commercial po sition which tills country has attained in the past eight years, becoming particularly definite during the war abroad, we must get accustomed to see this country finance and carry supplies. Tbe Idea, as lately suggested, that the south is Incapable of filling this mission, and that holdings of any kind can be squeezed out. Is evidently a relic of former times and practice. Liverpool was firmer on old crops but easier ou new. Spots one point lower, sales 7,000 bales. No doubt the decline In freight of $5 to $6 a bale, with contingent straddle operations, is responsible frit tbe tendency of the Liverpool market, that the limit of this depression may be reached, is suggested by the sharp rally in Liverpool of 10 points today towards the close. The New York Commercial makes the in crease in acreage for the belt 8.6 per cent ami says fertilizers will not be reduced but that quality is poorer. Washington reports that the house has passed a resolution providing for the collection of statistics by the census bureau of the quantity of cotton used in the manufacture of explosives. The map shows raining in northwest Texas and unsettled weather over most of tbe belt, with Indications for more general rainfall com ing on the western half of the belt, followed by colder weather. First trades in futures were at unchanged figures with market showing the same peculiar scarcity of sellers in spite of prevailing bearish literature and advices. Trading was narrow but the market showed decided steadiness. It is generally believed that Interest in tbe May po sition is small, as during the March liquidation the transfer was mostly Into July or October. The firmness of the spot situation, indications for further delay to the next crop, and some how a more hopeful feeling over politics, ac count for the tendency to rally. The Intosight for the week looks around 142.- 000 against 239.473 last year, and we compare with 320,000 mill takings this week last year. Chances are that supply -changes will be bull ish and mill takings better than last week as the railroad congestion in the east seems partly relieved. t . . Spots are very steady with about 1,500 traded in so far The rally In Liverpool is sure to Increase the demand.
