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 During the late forenoon the market showed no rallying power and the early support was apparently withdrawn.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.

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. RANGE NEW ORLEANS FUTURES. ► G Closed steady; NEW YORK PRODUCE MARKET. NEW YORK.

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. CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET. Grain quotations: High. 93 92% 92 55% 56 Vs 51 WHEAT- May .... July ....
