Cooler Weather and Firm Cables
Cause Scare Among Shorts.
Offerings Are Light.
NEW YORK, May 6.—Although the
cotton market received good support at
the opening to-day, first prices showed
irirregularity, being 2 points up to 4
points off from last night’s close. Ca
bles were unsatisfactory, but short sell
ers were cautious, fearing developments
in the old crop months. Weather con
ditions were favorable and sentiment
was against the market, but shorts be
came general buyers shortly after the
• •all. when indications pointed to cooler
weather. At the end of half an hour the
list was back to last night’s level and
the tone was satisfactory.
It is estimated that shorts covered
fully 60,000 bales yesterday, attributed
mainly to Wall Street and the Waldorf
i clique.
i The principal points of to-day's weath
er map are reliable indications for more
general rains in the eastern half of the
belt during the next thirty-six hours;
slightly cooler, but no cold weather.
Weather reports and acreage esti
mates. also the technical conditions, are
forming speculative option. Weather
conditions have been excellent as a
whole, but acreage estimates are rather
smaller than generally expected. It
seems plain that short covering has fur-
„ nished the principal buying in the mar-
t ket.
Wall Street was said to be covering
short lines and a rally of about 10 points
from the opening quotations followed.
During the afternoon session the market
was featureless, with prices fluctuating
narrowly. The weekly weather report
was unfavorable for Alabama and the
Eastern States, but very favorable for
the Western belt.
It is said that the market has been
heavily oversold. There seem to be no
forces who are anxious to bull the mar
ket in the face of such ^ood crop re
ports and weather conditions. On the
other hand, the market finds plenty of
sellers on ah r.inos. which makes it
e obvious that this Is a weather
market.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, May 6.—Liverpool
was disappointing at first with futures
hbout 2 points lower than due, spot un-
1 hanged, sales 6,000 bales Political news
Is mixed. The evacuation of Scutari
announced by Montenegro is accepted
with faith and optimism in London, but
with doubt ar.d diffidence by the Conti
nent. Austria and Italy are reported to
continue their military preparations to
move on Albania.
New York acted as though concerted
support was applied which is brought
out in connection with the recent bullish
literature of Mr. Price.
There is no question, however, that
more confidence prevails in regard to the
political situation and increased demand
for contracts and more inquiry for spots
is showing up. This is the explana
tion of the better tone in our market
this morning.
Expectation of an unfavorable weekly
weather report, except for Western
States, gave strength to the new crops.
The market, held a 5-polnt advance well
up to 11 o’clock, when the latest quo
tation of French rentes showing a de-
e of 80 points caused uneasiness on
renewed fear of politics.
CHICAGO, May 6.—Wheat was again
lower this morning, the list showing re
cessions of on further losses
abroad and the favorable crop news
from this country, as well as from Rus
sia. There was liberal realizing in the
Old World and there was some short
selling there. Northwestern receipts, as
well as those in Canada, were in excess
of a year ago.
Corn was %@%c lower and was under
considerable selling pressure, with May
the weakest.
Oats were %(ft%c lower in sympathy
mh corn.
Provisions were easier, except for Sep
tember lard and July ribs
