Market Holds Steady in Spite of
General Rains Because of
Short Covering,
xrcw von
May 17.—Influenced by
fa\
of
la
table weather newt! the cotton mar-
opened easy today with first prices
lints higher to 4 points lower than
right's close. The market, how-
° sfoiwtd resistance to the selling
; >nd developed a steady tone. While the
weather mat) was construed as favorable
crop conditions, the crowd was in
clined in buy and the buying looked bet-
ti p than the selling, which came mainly
from the spot houses.
The market was given additional sup
port when shorts became good buyers.
This class of buying was based on the
* that the market did not recede on
Abe general rains, which has been the
gossip of the trade of late. After the
'•all the entire list rallied above the
previous close. July was under active
demand and rallied to 11.59. while later
positions scored the like amount.
Prospects for further showers over
’be greater part of the belt Sunday
1 iskJ the market to develop a sagging
tendency during the last half hour of
' '** short session and prices fell a shade
i wtr than the opening The buying
was less persistent. Offerings became
i freer, which was thought to be profit-
taking, causing the market to close
steady with prices at net unchanged to

Oordill, one of the South's leading crop
experts, makes a statement reviewing
the condition of the cotton crop all ovei
the belt, and as a whole, he says, the
start has been favorable. He says that

and*in 1911. Both of these seasons were

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, May 17.—The map
shows a splendid general warm rainfall
ever the eastern half of the belt, while
the western half was generally fair and
dry. It ran be safely said that the en
tire belt lias had the rains needed.
Liverpool is closed to-day. hut will
be open Monday. A New York wire re
ported that the Government had revised
the season acreage, adding 670.0(H) to its
previous estimate, making the total 34.-
760,000 acres.
The market opened a few’ points lower,
but July in New York showed such
oetermined support, suggesting the in
tention of holding the market through
'his position, that selling was intimi
dated and covering brought about a rally
to 11.10 for October.
The leading freight people say that
bookings and demand for freight room
fur 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,
f while the opinion prevails that the com
ing bureau and private conditions fore
casts will give a high condition aver
age.

The New Orleans Times-Democrat
says. “Good to heavy rains fell nearly
all 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-
cidedlv steady undertone. Throughout
the session, however, 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
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. Violet t & Co.: “The market
is very susceptible to any bullish news,
and most of the rallies have been the
result of short coverings.”

NO JUNE WHEAT AVAILABLE.
CHICAGO. May 17. Bartlett, Frazier
& Co.: “Those who may he 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 thal 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 over July or have been entirely
sold by July 1.
OPINION ON GRAIN.
CHICAGO, May 17.—Bartlett, Frazier
& Co.:
Wheat Map shows light rains iu the
Northwest and showers east of the river.
The market is apt to be under local pres
sure in sympathy wdth 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', hut fair in
meats.
Masons Demand Raise.
ROME.—A ('lash between Rome
brickmasons 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.
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 tun.
“It was the gossip of the oats trade
that the Armour Grain Company has
more May oats than any other inter
est.’’
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
ar* near the end of their respeefive ea-
sons, and are scarce. !
Beans, on the other hand, are so
plentiful that the market is overloaded
