COTTON SEED OIL. ;W YORK, May 7.—The cotton seed market was dull and featureless to- trading being professional, pending developments. Outside trade re- id at a standstill. Advance in cot- was offset by the decline in bog ticts. White City Park Now Open Bulls Bid Heavily for Contracts, but Holders Refuse to Sell Any Great Amount. NEW YORK. May 7.—Prices made a quick upturn at the opening of the cot ton market to-day and first quotations were 3 to 8 points above Tuesday’s closing prices. Cables were strong. Old and new crop positions shared about equally in the rise. After the call the market continued steady on heavy buy ing. based on rain in the Eastern belt and a general bullish report from Cor- dill, and a report by Neil, which was construed as bullish. The advance was helped along by a Liverpool cable say ing the continent was buying on good trade demand. This buying gave the market addi tional strength and prices Increased their gains 3 to 6 points from the open ing level. Later the market sold off about 2 points from the early high level on reports of rains in Alabama. The report, however, was not official and the market again steadied at the high point. The weather map contradicts the of ficial forecast of fair weather and shows every indication for unsettled, showery weather in the Eastern half of the belt. The ring and Wall Street played for a reaction at times, but were cautious. In addition to the unfavorable weather map, Sterret Tate wired from Columbus, Ga., that cotton in parts of North Caro lina and North Georgia and all North *bama and Florida is in bad shape. Shorts became heavy buyers during the late forenoon and there was very little cotton for sale. The larger spot houses were also credited with buying, but their absorption seemed limited. Many reliable crop experts say unless we receive good rains it will be neces sary to replant much, and that unless the crop produces fully 15.000.000 bales prices will go higher. However, Wall Street and the uptown crowd disbe lieved that anything serious was the matter with the present prospects and sold between intervals of the early ses sion. The bulls took advantage of the op portunity and took possession of bull ish theories and worked them to the core for the rally. During the afternoon session prices aggregated a net gain of 8 points for May and 13 to 16 points for other positions from last night’s close.

HAYWARD A CLARK’S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLF7ANS. May 7.—Liverpool came in very good to-day, with futures about 3 points better than due. Spots unchanged; sales larger: total 10,000 bales. The Continent was reported as buying new crops, which is either due to unfavorable crop reports from this side or growing confidence in the po litical outlook and expected trade im provement this fall. The essence of all reports from the Eastern States is that the soil is in fine condition, start good and all that is needed now is rain. Feeling in favor of a reaction pre dominates in our market at present. It is based on a supposed excess of short interest, bullish intentions by a finan cially strong element in New York, led by Sir. Price, absence of general rains in the East, and. most of all, by the widespread idea that three big crops can not be made in succession. It is im portant to point out in this respect that the increase in production in late years has been mainly due to better agricul tural methods arising from better knowledge, an 1 this factor once estab lished is destined to remain. The contract market is very steady at present abound 11.91 for .July and 11.08 for October. Professional sup port against the short interest is evi- NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

The early start is all lost and conditions now are below norm al, and steadily falling behind on ac count of drouth. Early rainy weather made it impossible to prepare the low lands properly. Farmers plowed too early and the land is now so lumpy it may never be put in shape, an the sun is baking the land. *’l heard complaints all the way down and saw many people in Atlanta and talked with a number of people over long distance phone and the same story comes from everywhere. Comparatively little cotton is up and reports every where complain of very bad, defective or inferior seed and there is now a scarcity. “The warm weather in January is said to have caused heating and to have damaged almost half the stocks of seed held for planting. The outlook here is discouraging and a large crop is considered impossible in the eastern belt. • • • tn the late trading yesterday tlie ring looked too long and the bears took ad vantage of the opportunity to hammer the market and sold it freely. This selling was based entirely upon the rumor of rains in the eastern belt. How ever. there was no official report. * * * Liverpol cables: ‘American middling fair, 7.16d; good middling. 6.28d: mid dling. 6.62d; low middling. 6.48d; good ordinary, 6.14d; ordinary, 5.04d." •* * • Dallas wires: "Texas and Oklahoma clear and pleasant.” * * * Following are 11 a. m. bids: May 1.39.

Developments are very slow’ w’ith hardly any change in barometer conditions. Indications still are for unsettled, showery weather in the eastern States and becoming unset tled also over the northwestern quarter. * * * Rains are reported at Tuscumbia and in North Georgia, where they are badly needed. * * * Cordill wires from Troy. Ala.: "From Memphis to Tupelo, Miss., the soil is in excellent condition. Planting is about completed. From Tupelo, Columbus. Tuscaloosa. Ala., and Montgomery' to Troy', conditions are irregular Germi nation is slow. Some cotton is up to good stands: some is just coming up. Some was chopped out between here and Montgomery. Rains are needed in this entire section. Unless they get it soon, much replanting will be necessary. The weather is partly cloudy and warm.” * * * The New Orleans Times-Democrat say's: "Because the trade is attaching more importance to the necessity for replanting over a large section of the belt, and because the Government re ported deficient moisture in many sec tions. the rings w'ere inclined to ad vance values a little But the bulls lost their advantage when French rentes were reported down 60 decimal points and when private telegrams reported rain falling in Alabama. The truth of the matter is the market is on the threshold of the know-ledge. Thus far the talent has had great argument about it, but nobody has learned anything of a very definite nature. "Now. however, bull and bear alike are looking through the doorway. In a little while the darkness will begin to lift and with the coming of light they will all know whether the crop has had an early, a normal or a late start. They will also know whether the acreage in crease is important or not. and whether the renlanting made necessary by r lack of moisture at the psychological mo ment and continued cold nights has or has not made a lasting impression on the yield.

CHICAGO, May 7.—Bartlett, Frazier & Co.: Wheat—Sentiment is still pronounced ly bearish, but we feel that the de cline Is being overdone. Corn—New buying is rather limited, but the country does not show any dis position to offer freely. Oats—Values have been affected chief ly by other grains, there being little or no selling pressure on the market except by shorts. Provisions—Packers were the best buyers on declines, the selling coming chiefly in the way of scattered liquida tion. LIVERPOOL GRAIN MARKET. LIVERPOOL, May 7.—Wheat opened % to %d lower. At 1:30 p. m. the mar ket was %d lower; closed % to %d lower. Corn opened unchanged to %d lower. At 1:30 p. m. the market was % to %d lower; closed %d lower. DROP IN WHEAT PREDICTED ON GENERAL PRINCIPLES CHICAGO, May 7.—Bartlett, Frazier & Co.: “Wheat traders saw nothing last night on which to base purchases for a sub stantial upturn. Some were disposed to believe that with any further decline to-day there should be a reaction on general principles. "Gossip on corn was rather bearish. Even those who have been friendly to the market said that with favorable con ditions for planting, combined with pros pects of a larger movement from the country, they saw nothing to warrant a good advance at present. Gats special ists were moderately bearish, but hesi tated about following the short side too closely. PRIMARY MOVEMENT. WHEAT— | 1913. | 1912. Receipts .... . ,| 703,000 | 355,000 Shipments . . . .
