NKW YORK. April 24 -Influenced by
firm tables and a disposition on the
part of the ring to buy for a reaction
the cotton market opened steady to
day, with first prices at a net gain of
3 to 6 points from last night’s close.
Later a short covering movement pre
vailed ami liberal buying from the
larger spot housrs «-aused a farther ad
varioe of 2 to 7 points.
The rally In the old cron positions
was attributed to Liverpool straddles
One large exchange house was a good
buyer through Rlordan.
Weather condition*! continue favorable
and the market found free offerings
from Wall Street and the uptown
crowd. It is said that a large long in
terest still is in the May option, which
more than likely will come out before
notice day.
During the late forenoon the market
showed no rallying power and the early
support was apparently withdrawn.
Those who played for a rally found sen
timent was largely against the market
and prices fell back. Trading was very
light.
1 Yedi< tion of frost in the Western belt
over night resulted in a renewal of the
early buying by the ring and the larger
spot houses. This buying caused fur
ther short covering and the market re
gained the early level with prices 4 to
6 points over the opening. New crop
contracts were In active demand, while
the selling was scattered.
At the close the market wtls steady
with prices at a net advance of 6 to 11
points from the final quotations of Wed
nesday.

HAYWARD & CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, April 24.—Liverpool
to-day showed some resistance to the
decline. Futures are about 2 points
better than due.
The Atlantics should get rains to-mor
row night, heavy rains in the delta will
agf+avaic the river situation and there
is danger of low temperatures pretty
lar down into the western half of the
belt. All now depends on how cold It
gets and whether the early start will be
lost in portions of the belt. This fear
stopped the selling pressure this morn
ing and caused prices to rally to 12.10
for July and to 11.33 for October.
New York seems to hold to the idea
that more long liquidation must take
place before notice day without regard
to bullish influence. This caused the
support here, based or fear of weather
damage to hesitate and the market be-
eanie quiet and easier in the second
hour. Bearish comparisons are likely.
The into-sight for the week looks
around 102,000. against 162.000 bales and
mill takings 314,000 bales last year.

ST. LOUIS CASH QUOTATIONS.
Wheat- No. 2 red %
Oats—No. 2 red 32
CHICAGO, April 24.—Wheat showed
early recessions of %®<%c on general
rains in Kansas and a report to Bart
lett-Fraser. frob B. W, Snow, the
crop expert, that while there had been
some losses in the vicinity of Great
Bend, of that State, the ideal conditions
elsewhere would make up for this de
ficiency. The shorts were in the lead
as buyers. Liverpool was unsettled and
continental markets were higher.
Northwestern receipts were largely in
excess of a year ago.
Corn was %®)%c lower on increased
offerings of the cash and selling by the
principal longs in the pit.
Oafs were a small fraction lower in
sympathy with the other grains.
Provisions were higher with the ad
vance in hogs at the yards.
There was heavy liquidation of wheat
toward the close of the day with the
Kansas crop report indicating 122,000,000
bushels on 7,200,000 acres, and the con
dition 89.5, the leading bearish factor.
This caused a lot of selling and there
w’ere longs in the trade who were anx
ious to secure available profits. There
were many to take profits. A big specu
lator was reported as a heavy seller of
July and September wheat during the
entire day.
Duluth reported another line of cash
wheat lor export, but it was impossible
to learn the exact amount. Cash sales
of wheat were 35,000 bushels; corn, 500,-
000 bushels; oats, 200,000 bushels.
Corn closed with losses of % to Vic
and oats were % to %c lower.
Provisions were sharply higher.
