r THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS, L Spot Houses Buy, Helping the Ad vance—Weather and Crop News Very Bearish, NEW YORK, June 4.—Influenced by Arm cables the cotton market opened quiet to-day with first prices net un changed to 2 points lower than last night’s closing quotations. The poor re sponse to firm cables was explained by the continued decline In the stock mar ket. Weather conditions overnight were favorable, showing further rains in the eastern belt. During the forenoon the market was under heavy buying, which was credited chiefly to shorts covering and brokers identified with the spot in terests. Spot houses were said to have sold July on the opening. There? was a demand for near crops and a rally fol lowed. July and August advanced 10 points over the initial level. New' crop positions were under active demand and followed the advance moderately. The interest seemed to center in the summer option, but there was a good demand for new crops around 11 cents. Habersham King’s report on conditions was very bearish and had a depressing effect. Prices, however, held rather steady and only declined a few points from the high point. Outside specula tion continues so small that it is hard to bring about any material change In prices. The feeling, however, continues extremely bearish and the local traders are Inclined to sell on all favorable news. During the late forenoon and after noon session the market continued on the upward trend. The ring crowd seemed to have gone short during the early trading. The early decline was quickly retrieved. The trade purchased July, which started a renewal of short covering, resulting In prices rallying back to the early best. At the close the market was steady with prices at a net gain of 3 to 9 points from the final quotations of Tuesday.

Our market opened about 10 points iwer, hut steadied on the resistance lotvn by New York. The intention of rofessionals to make the usual sum- er operations against technical condi- ons is responsible for the present sup- >rt and steadiness. Rome reverse, even immaterial in the end but sufficient . serve as the basis of a short scare, is c pec ted by present bull operators to ime along and cause an upturn, and eir buying is on this ground. Mean- bile, the general economic outlook as fleeted by the continued decline in the ook markets is becoming less encour- ?ing. and uncertainty, together with e proposed or supposed radical change iming from a new administration, is lling in its paralyzing effect.

Memphis wires: "Conditions are fa- vorable for scattered showers over the northern parts of the western cotton States and in the Southeast. Yesterday nght rains fell throughout Alabama and in Western Texas and parts of Arkan sas. • ♦ • The New Orleans Times-Democrat says; “With New Orleans holiday, there was very little interest taken locally in the cotton market. The New York ses sion reflected narrow trading, and the talent there explained the decline as due to rains in Texas. Dallas, however, ad vised that a light sprinkle at Paris was the only vestige of rain in the State. “Meanwhile, the spot markets of the South continue to hold the market down in spite of the fact that the new crop movement , is little more than two months away. The interior holds a good deal of cotton, but holders do not seem in the least worried and not at all anx ious to liquidate. “Light rains continue to fall in the eastern States and unsettled weather was predicted for Arkansas. In Texas, hot dry weather exists, but as yet no se rious complaints of high temperatures havo been heard. On the contrary, Tex as is now sending in many very fa vorable crop reports. The talent can not reconcile the Government’s very low percentage figures for the Atlantic States with the private crop advices, consequently, bearish confidence began to return after some overnight contem plation." * * * Habersham King, in his latest report, says: “Reviewing weather conditions from preparation to planting and chop ping out, 1 am convinced that this crop is earlier than normal by at least two weeks. Stands perfect, crop clean and in condition to withstand unfavorable developments with minimum damage Unless the last half of August be so wet as to prevent picking and ginning* the movement this fall will be the earliest on record and from all sections of the belt." * * * The next Government report to be issued will be the acreage report, which will be made public July 3, at noon. It may be that the Government will issue its second condition figures at that time. • * * Thomasville, Ga., wires: "Govern ment report a farce. Conditions in Georgia were never better.’’ MILLER-CARTER COTTON LETTER. MEMPHIS, June 4.—It appears that sufficient shorts covering developed on early decline to check it, since which time trading has been limited and fluc tuations narrow. Foreign advices indi cate a disposition on the part of Euro pean spinners to buy moderately at present pric<*s, but American trade is quite bearish on good crop accounts and prospects give legislation. We antici pate that foreign demand will subside if crop does well for a while longer, leav ing prices at mercy of bearish domestic- speculators, among whom are numbered those of the South.

BULLISH WHEAT TRADERS SAY BIG SHORT INTEREST EXISTS CHICAGO, June 4.—The Inter Ocean says: "Those who are bullish on wheat said last night that they believed the market was sold out and that a good short interest existed, which should it become alarmed over the Northwest ern crop prospects and start to cover, prices will go higher. "Corn prices yesterday were the high est of the season. Bulls are talking 60 cents and most of the local trade are long. “The theory of the bulls is that un less a good supply in accumulated this month to carry the trade into Septem ber prices are to go higher. "The most important point noticeable in the market in the last few days has been the limited selling pressure, mak ing it easy for the bulls to advance prices.” OPINIONS ON GRAIN. CHICAGO, June 4.—Bartlett, Frazier & Co.: Wheat—The course of prices to-day depends largely on the attitude of the shorts, some of which covered on yes terday’s late rally. There is no pressure on the market except from this class of sellers. Corn—There was considerable cover ing yesterday by shorts and should the country start to sell again in any vol ume prices may ease off some The supply and demand situation controls the market now. Oats—We continue to feel friendly to oats for the long pull. Provisions -We are Inclined to look for a higher market to-day. B. W. SNOW BULLISH ON WHEAT.
