COTTON GOSSIP
Market Holds Steady in Spite of
General Rains Because of
Short Covering.
NEW YORK, May 17.—Influenced by
favorable weather news the cotton mar
ket opened easy today with first prices
- points higher to 4 points lower than
last nigtit’s close. The market, how
ever, showed resistance to the selling
and developed a steady tone. While the
weather map was construed as favorable
so crop conditions, the crowd was in
clined to buy and the buying looked bet
ter than the selling, which came mainly
from the spot houses.
The market was given additional sup
port when shorts became good buyeis.
This class of buying was baaed on the
.fact that the market did not recede on
ihe general rains, which has been the
gossip of the trade of late. After the
call the entire list rallied above the
previous close. July w’as under active
demand and rallied to 11.59, while later
positions scored the like amount.
Prospects for further showers over
the greater part of the belt Sunday
caused the market to develop a sagging
tendency during the last half hour of
short session and prices fell a shade
lower than the opening. The buying
was less persistent. Offerings became
freer, which was thought to be profit-
taking, causing the market to close
steady with prices at net unchanged to
2 points lower than the final quotations
of Friday.
Warehouse stocks in New York to-dav
are 84.752 bales; certificated, 73.07*8
bales.
Estimated cotton receipts:

Cordill, one of the South’s leading crop
experts, makes a statement reviewing
the condition of the cotton crop all over
the belt, and as a whole, he says, the
start has been favorable. Ilo 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.
lie says:
“fn 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. 1 should
sa.v .5 per cent of cotton is not up yet.
though it is coming slowdy to good
•Mantis A good deal of cotton is up to
go<xl stands and chopped out in both
South Alabama and South Georgia.
Kron Macon and Augustu to Greenville,
S. ('.. it is coming up to good stands,
but from Greenwood, Athens to Atlanta
it is very Irregular; much Is not up yet.
'I'he soil is in excellent shape and gen
eral prepaiations are about all that
•ould be desired. Widely scattered
showers and a few good rains fell dur
ing tiie 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
ri’is time much of the land was un
plowed. South Alabama and South
Georgia are possibly a week later than
1911, though soil preparations are equal
ly as good. Central Georgia and the
Carolinas are about the same, as we
had serious complaints of dry weather
>t this time in 1911, 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 leading freight people say that
hookings and demand for freight room

nominal. The market continued very
dull for the remainder of the session, but
held around 11.10 for October. The rally

Secretary Hester’s weekly New Or

The New Orleans Times-Democrat
says “Good to heavy rains fell nearly
ill over the western cotton belt, 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
the session, however, business was on
the moderate scale. There is a growing
suspicion in many quartets 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: “Tnere seems to lie
more or less apprehension over the July
situation, which at this time has a ten
dency to check aggressive operations on
the 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.”

CHICAGO. May 17.—The Inter Ocean

among close students of the market con
ditions last night that the short interest
in May wheat has hardly started lo
cover, and w-ere 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

fairly good selling in anticipation of the

that the Armour Grain Company has
more May oats than any other inter

NEW YORK, May 1.7.—A 400 per cent
dividend on the stock of the Standard
Oil Company, of New York, will be soon
declared, providing the stockholders ap
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
ratified, which is very likely, the 400
per cent melon will be sliced a w r eek
later.
BANANAS PROVE SCARCER;
FIRST PEACHES ARRIVE
(By McCullough Brothers.)
Bananas, usually the most abundant of
fruits, jusi 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, are sr
plentiful that the market is overloaded
.'H1CAGO, May 17. The strength in
the May wheat was the feature as well
the factor of the day. 'Phis strength
..«s based on the buying of that future
against cash sales at Chicago, which
amounted to 75,000 bushels. The more
leferred months were firm and they
losed better. The net gain for May
vhcat was 8 c |\hile July was up only
*c^ and September was a shade lower.
Corn closed %c lower to unchanged.
Oats %c higher to * 4 c low’er to un
changed.
Provisions showed advances of 12 l t'h
<• for pork and 50 7%c for lard and
ribs.

OPINION ON GRAIN.
CHICAGO, May 17.—Bartlett, Frazier

Wheat- Map shows light rains in tlie
Northwest and showers easi of the river.
The market is apt to be under local pres
sure in sympathy with cable advices
and smaller cash inquiry.
Goi n Look for rather narrow- market.
Oats - Market very nervous ami likely
to continue so to-day.
Provisions — Scattered liquidation
caused easier feeling yesterday, with

meats.
Masons Demand Raise.
ROME.—A clash between Rome
