cotton market to-day. First prices were 1
2 points higher to 2 points lower than j
the closing quotations of Thursday
Many had expected a much lower wturt
on account of the weather map. but
the market •shows considerable resist*
ance in the face of favorable weather,
with predictions, for further rains, and
spot people gave the market support
by buying old crops, and this prevented
the market from showing depression
After the call bear pressure developed
In volume and the new crop positions

The principal feature during
forenoon trading was the selling b> «ev
era I brokers who usually represent the
larger spot houses.
Reports of rains is causing mofe bear
ish sentiment, but - the mosi radical
hears are not inclined to sell the market
short on such reports, owing to the
many misleading re,ports that have
issued during the pa
Most of these ’eports
when the official gov

presem levels, but it is noticeable they
art n<ft celling the n.arkei short to any
great ex tout.
1 »urfng the late forenoon the market
was quiet with prices a shade lower
than the opening range.
The strength in July was credited
chiefly to tin steadiness of the n* w
erop positions, but prices failed to bulge
either way. The forecast is for more
extensive tains over the Eastern States
during the next 36 1 ours.
During the afternoon Session the mar-

unchanged from the previous close.

Tin cotton crop stand in Georgia is
not mom than 50 per cent. It may bo
as lew as 40 per cent. This estijnate
was made 'Friday by officials of the
State Department of Agriculture on
iate reports from agents and farmers
throughout the State.
- 'The ; ituation is alarming.” »aid
J. J Frown. Assistant ("ommissione*
*)f Agriculture, "y is worse than it
has been in yea/s. r ilie department
is not desirous of spreading ‘calamity*
reports, nut it is impossible to get
away from the fact thu the stand is
not more than half the normal. It
may be even less.”
Farmers can meet in a measure the
conditions of drouth or rain once
they get the plants, but without a
stand they are helpless. The long pe
riod of ary weather has prevented
the germination of the seeds. If an
attempt is made to replant within the
next week, it is a . question whether
the crop will reach maturity in time.
"Farmers with considerable of their
acreage in corn have fared better.
There are good stand*- of corn about
the State Find the indications arc that
there will be a fair and a profitable!
rrop.”

The New Orleans Times-Democrat
says: "On the eve of more holidays at
Liverpool, and harassed by widely vary
ing views as tp the character of progress
the crop in the aggregatf is making,
the American markets reflected a do-
nothing disposition. The talent is
largely dependent on technical develop-
mcnls for daily inspiration and technical
developments now are few and far be
tween. The constitutional bear is in
creasingly inclined to believe that the
mental attitude of the actual cotton
trade is still being influenced by the
very pmall yields of several years ago.
"‘Last season, it is argued, all the holes
made during the period of lean supply
were filled Find normal relationship be
tween supply and need was re-estab
lished. This year production and con
sumption Fire not far apart.
‘‘Thus, the legitimate influences that
should be created by the relationship-be
tween another year's crop and another
year's need should apply. Carrying this
argument further, the bear claims that
under the influence of adequate supply
th** fear of raw cotton scarcity will grad
ually disappear and in the eyes of Euro
pean mill men. sixpence will begin to
seem high. On this belief, of which they
make fi foundation, the bears are now
building the hope that new crop values
will decline one or two hundred Ameri
can points during the summer or fall.”

and raised on the Comer farm at Mill-
haven. Ga.. and would do credit to any
beef producing section.
With the exception of this load and
two loads of Shorthorn steers from A.

CHICAGO, May 16.—William M.
Burton Superintendent of the Stand
ard Oil Company of Indiana, to-day
made a special plea before John
Montgomery, Jr., commissioner of the
Supreme Court of Missouri, asking^
that the company be permitted to do
business in Missouri.
He said if permitted to operate In
Missouri the Standard Oil Company
would spend $1,000,000 on the Sugar
Creek refinery at Kansas City, and
supply the State with a sub-motor
fuel to take the place of gasoline,
which would be sold at 3 cents a
gallon less than present day gaso
line prices.
"Seven or eight years hence,” said
Burton, "the price of gasoline may
reach any figure. If we are per
mitted to open up in Missouri we
will tyiter the State as a competitive
company and spend $1,000,000 on the
Sugar Creek refinery.”
He said that, if the company were
kept out of the State under the rul
ing of the Supreme Court in April
last year, the cost of this sub-fuel
will be as great in Missouri as gas
oline on account of the extra charges
for shipping.
He promised that, if permitted to
enter Missouri, the Standard Oil
Company w6uld keep its books open
for official examination at any time.

SHORT INTEREST IN WHEAT
WILL BE FORCED TO COVER
CHICAGO, May <6,—The Inter Ocean
says: A tight situation is developing
in all grains for May delivery, espe
cially is wheat and oats. There is said
to be a fairly large scattered short in
terest in the forrper which may be
forced to cover, particularly• in view of
the good cash demand. A more friend
ly feeling toward wheat, however, was
apparent in the gossip after the close,
and while few’ could give good rea- j
sons for a sustained advance, a number J
believed that purchases made on breaks
to around yesterday’s* low point would
be regarded with moderate profits.
Com specialists continue to look for
% narrow range for the deferred fu
tures. but refuse to commit themselves
regarding the action cf May. July and
September are regarded as a safe sale
on bulges, or an equally safe purchase
on bfeaks.
oats traders figure that if prices can
advance 9 cents desrdte such bearish in
fluences there is little danger In buying
September around 35 cents, with reports
already coming in of unfavorable con
ditions ai d very little prospects of a
bumper crop.
CANADIAN REPORT ON WHEAT.
CHICAGO. May 16.—The May report
of the Canadian census and statistics
office says that in Ontario 18 per cent
and in Alberta 43.5 per cent of area
sown to winter wheat last fall was win-,
ter killed The loss is 261.000 acres,
leaving standing for harvest in Canada
