Georgia Crops Far
Behind This Year
SAVANNAH. GA., May 16. -"The
general condition of the crops through
out the State is very backward," said
Professor J. Walter Hendricks, who has
returned from a trip through the Sa
vannah territory in the interest of the
Hoys' Corn Clubs. ,
"The spring oats crop is going to be
almost an entire failure. However, the
fall sown oats, put In with a grain drill,
will make out all right, notwithstand
ing the day weather. About two-tbirds
of the corn crop has come to a stand,
while some fields have not yet been
planted. Where corn has been given a
cultivation it Is looking well.
“Not more than one-half of the cot
ton crop has come to a stand. One-
third of the crop has not yet been plant
ed. However, the farmers are in a
very hopeful frame of inind, and are
going ahead in a determined way. It
is not too late to make a crop. A failure
this year would go hard with the farm
ers, as the cotton crop has been a fail
ure fer the last two years. In 1911
there was a good crop, but the heavy
rains kept the farmers from picking it,
and there was a great loss. Last year
it rained all the time. This year has
been rather dry.”

Danger Lies in People Believ
ing Panic Rumors.
NEW YORK. May 15.—The opening of
the cotton market was very quiet and
trading was llghi Gifford. (Jeer. Mitch
ell, Russell, McKnany, Hubbard, Rior-
dan, Geran and Ingersoll were the lead
ing buyers. Hentz, Clearman, Hicks,
Flfnn and Rosenberg were the leading
sellers.
WASHINGTON, May 15.—“There
Is no threatening cloud in the busi
ness atmosphere of the United
States," declared James J. Hill, rail
road k<ng of the Northwest, who is in
Washington on business.
Mr. Hill was discussing the exist
ing economic conditions of the coun
try and the probable industrial con
ditions of the near future. As if to
give added emphasis to the above
statement, he said:
“I see no menace to our national
progress in the present industrial sit
uation. Rather the existing situation
leads me to take a somewhat opti
mistic view of our future. The only
danger to continued industrial pros
perity lies in the people themselves.
"The tendency of the people to
seize upon false rumors of impend
ing industrial upheavals—and these
rumors, usually having their birth in
irresponsible quarters, are. always a
danger with us.
“If the people keep their heads, if
they do not become angry at some
temporary ill that may look big to
them as a portent of industrial panic,
the country will continue to progress
along prosperity lines."
A wire from Texas said that the
crop was in excellent shape. East and
southeast from San Antonio, where the
crop ought to be early It is slightly late,
with some replanting having been nec
essary in small parts of the State.

COTTON MARKET OPINIONS.
Thompson, Towle & Co.: We believe
market is too low, bui would buy on
breaks only.
Norden A On.: We feel conservative
purchases of ail positions on weakness
will prove profitable.
Hayden, Stone & Co.: With senti
ment os much against bull speculations
it is impossible to atiract buying in
cotton without a crop disaster.
Miller & Co.: Tne tendency seems
downward.
According to a report received from
Austin, Tex., very little cotton has been
chopped out in that territory. The re
port said that the crop is about ten
days late in Texas.
The New York Commercial says: A
Jap walked into a Broadway commission
house yesterday and stood gazing at
the board a while. Then he picked up
the cotton tape and studied it attentive
ly. The manager politely asked him
whether he understood the figures. “Sure
I do." replied the Jap In the best ver
nacular, and proceeded to extract from
his pockets a handful of charts. He had
charts of cotton prices, others of wheat
movements, still others of coffee and
finally a curious maze of lines to indi
cate the stock market. After consult
ing them he announced that July coD
ton was headed toward 12 cents and
that coffee was a purchase at current
levels. Then he made his exit. "Well, it
does seem as Japs make charts of
everything from markets to fortifica
tions." observed the manager. “Perhaps
he is getting ready to blow up the stock
market," suggested a loafer.
Liverpool cables: "American middling

Atlanta dispatch to Journal of Com
merce states that notwithstanding the
fact that for nearly five weeks practi
cally no rain has fallen in Georgia, the
State Department of Agriculture pre
dicts a "bumper” cotton crop this year
for that State.

WHEAT CONDITIONS BAD.
CHICAGO, May 15.—B. W. Snow says:
"The wheat situation on the Pacific
Coast is radically different from the rest
of the country. There has been drouth
all spring and crop advices are coming
bad. Every weather bureau station west
of the Rockies show a heavy deficiency
u moisture since the beginning of the
season and foremost of them the figures
are sensational
“The coast wheat prospects have gone
back rapidly since May, and it begins to
look like a decidedly small winter wheat
crop west of the mountains."

NEW ORLEANS. May 15.—Hayward
Clark: The weather map shows
clf»udy over the entire belt. Some good
rains in Arkansas. Showers In North
I.otiisiana and East Tennessee. The
map shows no rain elsewhere, but de
tailed records at 10 o’clock bound to
show more precipitation, as telegraph
companies and private reports say rain-
tall at many points. Indications are for
unsettled, showery weather over the
entire belt, with increasing certainty of
rain in the Eastern states.
The detailed Government records show
a rather general rainfall in Oklahoma
over night. Twelve stations out of a to
tal of eighteen show an average of near
ly one inch, whereas the weather map
this morning gives only .14 at one sta
tion. This shows how showers, no mat
ter how large, are not always shown on
»* map.
We compare with mill takings for
the week last year of 279,000 bales. It
is believed that the visible supply will
be bearish.
The New Orleans Times-Pemocrat
says: Like a bolt from the blue, the
hear contingent hurled defiance in the
teeth of the enemy in the shape of an
assertion that the new crop is in as good
condition as it was at this time in 1911.
Of course, bulls ridiculed such an idea
and countered with deficient rainfall re
ports, with advices saying replanting on
too large a scale for the good of the
crop had been made necessary by cool
nights, and finally by exploiting a tele
gram dated San Antonio, which read:
"Many reports of abandoned acreage on
account of no germination and too late
to replant even if rains come soon. De
ficiency in rainfall since January 1, 3.54
inches."

The transfer of New York’s protective

ing a serious aspect in--the eyes of July
shorts. It Is now* reported that a num
ber of thousand bales of low grades have
been culled out and ear-marked for
Bombay. All along Liverpool has ad
vised that low grades cotton out of the
New York stock would be welcomed
there. Thus it would seem that the
Yew York July short has real cause
for concern, especially since the New
York contract market holds well below
.Southern spot parity.

Beneficial Rains Fail to Depress
Quotations for Futures—Trad
ers Wait for Developments.
NEW YORK, May 15.—New crops
were supported moderately on account
of the weather reports at the opening of
the cotton market to-day, first prices
ranging from 1 point lower to 2 points
higher than last night’s close. The
tone was steady. Outside trading inter
ests are apparently awaiting further
crop statistics.
The market was extremely dull dur
ing the late forenoon and prices fluctu
ated within a very narrt/w range, being
t point higher to 3 points lower than
the opening quotations. Dullness was
attributed chiefly to the apathy on the
part of the leading professionals, who
were inclined to withdraw their atten
tion from the market until something
new turned up.
Sentiment was bearish: also weather
reports. The map shows rain storm
formations over Southwest Texas, hold
ing forth good prospects tor rains; also
in the South. North Carolina and South
Carolina are forecast to have fair
weather, while Florida, Alabama. Geor
gia and Mississippi are due to receive
local showerH.
In addition to the bearish weather
conditions the impression prevails that
the visible supply figures to-morrow and
also mill takings will prove a bearish
factor. This brought out rather free
offerings from the ring and Wall Street,
but the market took the selling well and
prices were firmly naintained around
the initial level.
Interest during the afternoon session
was plainly centered on new crop posi
tions. The local crowd and Wall Street
continued to sell on reported rains in
the Eastern belt. The market, however,
maintained a steady tone, owing to the
buying by brokers who were said to be
buying for Liverpool. Near positions
were practically unchanged from the
opening, while new crops were 3 to 4
points lower.
Every one seems to be waiting for
new developments. This coupled with
Liverpool being closed Friday and Sat-
urdaj- will probably cause the market to
rule very quiet with a narrow range, but
the prevailing tendency seems to be
downward as sentiment continues bear
ish. The majority of traders seem to-be
waiting for something to come up so
they can sell, believing that the market
ia too high in the face of predominating
bearish sentiment.
At the close the market was steady
with prices at a net decline of 1 to 2
points from the final quotations of Wed
nesday.

York: May 11.41, July 11.54. August

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. May 15.—Liverpool
is holding around 6d for new crops and
awaiting developments. Spot sales are
very small; total, 5,000 bales. That
market will be closed to-morrow’ and
Saturday and may affect spot business.
Political news is not prominent at pres
ent. but the failure of government se
curities to show a rapid recovery would
suegost that apprehension has not yet
entirely subsided.
Detailed government records show
rather general precipitation overnight
in Oklahoma, twelve stations out of a
total of eighteen reporting an average
of nearly one inch.
The into-sight movement for the week
looks around 75,000 bales, against 95,186
last year.
As Liverpool forwardings to mills this
week are only 46,000 American, against
67,000 last year, an unfavorable con
sumption statement is indicated for to
morrow.
So far to-day advices of rain have
n ome from Pine, Bluff. Little Rock,
Spartanburg and Greenville. South
Carolina.
The market is quiet around 11.10 for
October. Buying of new crops by Eu
rope was again quite prominent this
morning and held up the scales against
filing on good crop reports and favor
able weather reports. It is essentially a
waiting market.

IN DIG BATCHES
CHICAGO, May 15.—Wheat closed
strong, unchanged to %c oetter. There
was a great deal of talk of "fake” ex
port sales coming from the seaboard and
elsewhere, but the final reports claimed
a cash business here of 476,000 bushel?
of which 300.000 bushels was reported
as having been taken by exporters. This
caused some reaction and advance in
the market from the lowest levels
reached. The exports of wheat fron\
both coasts during the month of April
were 10,737,000 bushels compared with
4,900,000 bushels for a like period last
year.
Corn closed %c better. Oats were up
Provisions were better all around.
