going to 263%. United States Rubber lost
2%. selling at 63.
In the industrials American Smelting

developed. Union Pacific and Reading
both moved up sharply. There was a
sharp improvement in Steel common.

Face of Perfect Weather.
XEW YORK. May 21.—Steadiness pre
vailed in the cotton market at the open
ing today, though first prices were un
changed to 5 points lower/ <'ahies were
good, although reports of continued fair
weather over the belt caused selling, the
most of which was in the late months.
Futures were firm in Liverpool, while
spot was in good demand there.
It was evident around the opening that
there was little cotton for sale. The ring
traders seemed to have sold about all
they had to sell yesterday op prospects
of good weather, and while the map
showed nothing unfavorable today, still
there was no cotton brought out and the
m;<ket rallied with Mttle buying. The
feeling on the floor continues bearish
The bulls are few but strong.
Neither side was aggressive in the aft
ernoon. but there was little cotton for
sale, which had the effect of holding the
market very steady, prices at 2 o’clock
showing advances of from 7 to 12 points
on the active positions over the previous
close.
The close was very steady at top levels
for the day and 15 to 17 points higher as
compared with the final figures on Mon
day.

HAYWARD &. CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, May 21.- Washing
ton sent the following message to the
exchange: "Expect to issue report on
June I showing condition of cotton May
25.” English consols are again %d lower.
Liverpool came in about as due on fu
tures, and quoted spots unchanged, but
show sales of 10,000 bales.
Our market opened lower, but was
pulled up by New York, where certain
long interests are making a strong de
fense. The basis for the bulling now
seems to be anticipation of a very low
bureau condition figure. Some New York
opinions received via Texas say that the
bureau is expected as low as 50. against
87.7 last year. It must be borne in mind
that the first bureau condition report
deals mainly with the .state of land and
preparation of soil, and not tvith the con
dition of the plant
A general belief in the North in a very
low condition figure is indicated by a fore
cast made by The New York Commer
cial of a condition of 55. Os course, if
the bureau should prove that low it would
give the world the impression of crop
disaster and bull interests are now work
ing on the expteted effect on the mar
ket.

NEW ORLEANS, May 21.—Hayward X
’’lark: The weather map perfect. Fair
west of Alabama: partly cloudy to cloud\
in the Eastern states. No rain except a i
few light showers on the Atlantic coast
district and .10 at New Orleans. Tern- 1
peratures around 62 to 66 during night,
tine growing weather. Indications are
for cloudy, possibly some showers in
Oklahoma and northern Arkansas: gener
ally fair in Texas: partly cloudy in the
rest of the belt: no rain of consequence,
but possibly a passing light shower.
Market advancing on New York circu
lating very low bureau condition fore
casts. as low as 50.
New Orleans Times-Democrat. The
market developments yesterday pleased
everybody hut the bear speculator. The
farmer had another day of good weather,
the spinner had favorable financial re
ports. which suggest continued good
trade: the bull on cot Um saw the brakes
applied to the contract decline. But the
bear, wiio, all along had counted a sell
ing wave to follow close on the heels of
favorable weather, seemed unaote to
make headway. Spot sales were small,
spinners did not appear to be in the mar
ket to any Important exteht. and, in so
far as surface indications went. bull
speculators did not seam to be very ac
tively engaged. All of vyhich brought the
talent back to the same old starting
point. The old crop has probably been
uloselx- sold up. and average consumption
has thereby been greatly accelerates!.
W ith average consumption greatly accel
erated. the new crop outturn in doubt and
the old crop pretty well gone, the short
side of the account appears less attractive
to the average operator than the average
bear thinks it should be. In a nutshell,
the situation is this: <’otton seed planted
hurriedly under a clod will not do as well
as seed planted in a carefully prepared
seed bed With the exception of some
tather low temperatures, the weather has
been good during the past ten days, and
the farmers have made rapid headway
with their work in the fields

Aggressive Support of Market
Causes Substantial Gains
After Sharp Declines.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK. May 21. Liquidation of
Canadian Pacific for Dondon and Berlin
accounts was the feature of the stock
market at the opening today. This issue
opened at 261%, a full 3 points off from
Mondays closing. Subsequently it
dropped stdl further, going to 261. but at
the end of fifteen minutes’ trading had
rallied from its lowest range.
’There was also selling of the hard coal
stock here. This was generally attrib
uted to profit-taking, as professionals had
purchased on the eve of the settlement
when these stocks were rising. Lehigh
Valley lost ’ 4 and Reading
United States Steel common opened at
70. unchanged from the last night clos
ing. ’The copper group was not very
active. Both Amalgamated and Ameri
can Smelting were off at the outset.
Later they rallied.
Baltimore and Ohio was unchanged.
Atchison was up ’ 4 . while Union Pacific
sustained the same amount of losses.
The curb was <juiet and irregular.
American Railways shares in the Lon
don market were unsettled in tone, but
there was no speculative selling move
ment in this department. ’There was
heavy selling of Canadian Pacific in Lon
don.
Aggressive buy ing appeared in a num
ber of stocks in the late forenoon and
substantial gains were made.
Canadian Pacific moved up I*2 and a
gain of 4 points was recorded in United
Cigar Ma n ufacturers.
Tennessee Copper was active and
strong.
Trading was listless in the last fifteen
minutes and the prive movement was
limited to an extremely narrow range.
Later some pressure was exerted against
Reading, and that stock declined more
than 1 point under 174. This downward
movement induced some selling of its
stock by room traders.
The. market closed steady
Governments unchanged, other bonds
steady.
