COTTON GOSSIP
Market Holds Steady in Spite of
General Rains Because of
Short Covering.
XKW YORK, May 17.—influenced by
favorable weather news the cotton mar
ket opened easy today with first prices
2 point# higher to 4 points lower than
last night’s close. The market, how-
cver, showed resistance to the selling
ami developed a steady tone. While the
weather map was construed as favorable
to crop conditions, the crowd was in-
■ lined to buy and the buying looked bet
ter than the selling, which came mainly
trom the spot houses.
1 he market was given additional sup-
v Y ien rfhorts became good buyers.
his class of buying was based on the
fad that the market did not recede on
general rains, which has been the
gossip of the trade of late. After the
< ail the entire list rallied above the
previous close. July was under active
demand and rallied to 1.1.59, while later
positions scored the like amount.
Prospects for further showers over
the greater part of the belt Sunday
•aused the market to develop a sagging
tendency during the last half hour of
snorl session and prices fell a shade
lower than the opening. The buying
was less persistent. Offerings became
fleer, which was thought to be profit-
taking, causing the market to close
steady with prices at net unchanged to
-.joints lower than the final quotations
of Friday.
Warehouse stocks in New York to-dav
are 84, <52 bales; certificated, 73,078
bales. ’

HAYWARD & CLARK S
N DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW. ORLEANS, May 17.—The map
shows a splendid general warm rainfall
over the eastern half of the belt, while
the western half was generally fair and
dry. it can be safely said that the en
ure hell: has had the rains needed.
Liverpool is closed to-day. but will
be open Monday. A New York wire re
ported that the Government had revised
the season acreage, adding 670,000 to its
previous estimate, making the total 34.-
11*0.000 acres.
'Phe market opened a few points lower.
1-ut July in New York showed such
determined support, suggesting the in
dention <>f holding the market through
Liis 'position, that selling was intimi-
< and covering brought about a rally
to 11.10 for October.
The leading freight people say that
hookings and demand for freight room
lor the fall months are very small; almost
nominal. The market continued very
dull for the remainder of the session, but
held around 11.10 for October. The rally
in the face of the bearish weather de
velopments appears to have nonplussed
many, others can not account for it,
while the opinion prevails that the com
ing bureau and private conditions fore
casts will give a high condition aver
age.

PORT RECEIPTS.
The following table shows receipts
at the poris Friday compared with Due
same day last year:
CordlU, one of the South’s leading crop
experts, makes a statement reviewing
tlie condition of the cotton crop all over
tlie belt, and as a whole, he says, the
start has been favorable, lie says that
most of the complaints have been exag
gerated, but there will be the usual
amount of replanting on account of the
dry spring months, as there was in 1904
and in 1911. Both of these seasons were
dry at the start.
He says:
’'In North and East Texas soil prepa
ration could be better. Cotton is com
ing up slowly to good stands south of
Tupelo, Miss. South Alabama and South
Georgia also have been rather too dry
and germination has been slow. I should
say .5 per cent of cotton is not up yet,
though it is coming slowly to good
Hands. A good deal of cotton is up to
good stands and chopped out in both
South Alabama and South Georgia.
From Macon and Augusta to Greenville,
S. C., it is coming up to good stands,
but from Greenwood, Athens to Atlanta
it is very irregular; much is not up yet.
The soil is in excellent shape and gen
eral preparations are about all that
■ould be desired. Widely scattered
showers and a few good rains fell dur
ing the past week which were locally
beneficial, but general soaking rains are
badly needed. I am not apprehensive of
a dry spring, but would like to see
enough moisture to make good stands.
General conditions are far in advance of
last year in every way, as last year at
n time much of the land was uYi-
plowed. South Alabama and South
Georgia are possibly a week later than
•911, though soil preparations are equal
ly as good. Central Georgia and the
Carolinas are about the same, as w’e
had serious complaints of dry weather
t this time in L911, which in the Green-
ville-Charlotte section extended well
into June. Good rains have obtained
over Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana and
Mississippi, West Texas had good soak
ing rains, the best in several years.”

The New’ Orleans Times-Democrat
says: “Good to heavy rains fell nearly
all over the western cotton bell, while
very little rain was reported by the
Government in the eastern belt, where
moisture is most needed. But the mere
talk of rain seemed enough to encour
age scalpers on the short side until the
rings learned that some big spot people
were buying New York contracts, and
that some large auction sales in the East
were panning out astonishingly well.
After that the market reflected a de
cidedly steady undertone. Throughout
1he session, how’ever. business was on
the moderate scale. There is a growing
suspicion in many quarters that the
Liverpool trade is quietly picking up the
new crop contracts in New Orleans,
which speculators seem never to tire of
selling.”

COTTON MARKET OPINIONS.
Logan & Bryan: “There seems to be
more or less apprehension over the July
situation, which at this time has a ten
dency to check aggressive operations on
’he selling side, owing to the fact that
leading spot interests seem to be ar-
rayed on the constructive side of that
month.”
Thompson. Towle & Co.: “We prefer
buying on all soft spots.”
Atwood, Violett & Co.; ••The market
is very susceptible to any bullish news,
and most of the rallies have been the
result of short coverings.”

SHORTS ARE SLOW IN
COVERING MAY WHEAT
CHICAGO, May 17.—The Inter Ocean
says: "It was the general impression
among close students of the market con
ditions last night that the short interest
in May wheat has hardly started to
cover, and were anticipating a mate
rially higher range in the next two
weeks. They were also very friendly
to July. Conservative people said they
preferred buying the deferred futures
of corn on breaks, as there has been
fairly good selling in anticipation of the
after-planting run.
"It was the gossip of the oats trade
that the Armour Grain Company has
more May oats than any other inter
est.”

NEW ^ ORK, May 17.—A 400 per cent

prove the plan for increasing the capi
tal stock from $15,000,000 to $75,000,000.
Directors to-day mailed out notices for
a special meeting on this matter for
June 6. If the stock increase plan is

BANANAS PROVE SCARCER;
FIRST PEACHES ARRIVE
(By McCullough Brothers.)
Bananas, usually the most abundant of
fruits, just now are in greater demand
than supply in Atlanta, and meet with
ready sale at somewhat firmer quota
tions.
A few peaches and cantaloupes have
been received, the first comers of the
season, and they went fast at stiff
prices. The Florida season for straw
berries is about over, and the present
supply is from Tennessee.
Apples, sweet potatoes and grapefruit
are near the end of their respective sea
sons, and are scarce.
Beans, on the other hand. ar« so
plentiful that the market is overloaded.

NO JUNE WHEAT AVAILABLE.
CHICAGO. May 17.—Bartlett, Frazier
& Co.: "Those who may be figuring
that any of the wheat at present in Chi
cago will be available for delivery on
June contracts may as well disabuse
their minds of that idea, for unless we
have a very general advance In new
crop prices, every bushel of old wheat
here will have advanced to considerable
premium fiver July or have been entirely
sold by July 1.
OPINION ON GRAIN.
CHICAGO, May 17. Bartlett, Frazier
Co.:
Wheal Map shows light rains in the
Northwest and showers east of the river.
The market is apt to be under local pres
sure in sympathy with cable advices
and smaller cash Inquiry.
Corn—Look for rather narrow market.
Oats—Market very nervous and likely
to continue so to-day.
Provisions — Scattered liquidation
caused easier feeling yesterday, with
cash trade in lard slow, but fair in
meats.
Masons Demand Raise.
ROM E. A clash between Rome
briokmasons and contractors is
threatened. The masons have de
manded 62 1-2 cents an hour after
July 1 instead of 50 cents, and that
eight hours instead of nine hours
compose a working day.
