Upward Movement Prevails in
Last Hour After General
Unsettlement Early.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, April 30.—-There was
constant variation in the tone of the
slock market this morning and price
movements during the first fifteen min
utes reflected the conflicting Influences
of continued heavy realizing offset by
vigorous buying. This purchasing,
which was done through commission
houses, caused brisk advances, which
were followed quickly by sharp reac
tions. This situation was most pro
nounced In Reading, which, after ad
vancing to 15444. declined to 1537*.
Amalgamated Copper redded % at the
outset to 74‘4 and then rose to 751*.
Lehigh Valley opened 3-%* higher at
146, but on the next few sales dropped
to 143*4. Union Pacific was In good de
mand, moving up IV* to 133. United
States Steel common gained IV* to 67V*.
Utah Copper Improved a point to 66.
Rock Island was under pressure, the
first sales being recorded as 4.000 shares
from 32 to 31, a loss of 3 points from
yesterday’s close with a later rally to
32Vi- The heaviness of this stock, to-
f rether with the pronounced weakness
n Rock Island of 6s yesterday was the
subject of a good deal of comment.
Mexican Petroleum Jumped 4Vi points
to 93. followed by a reaction to 91V
The strong tone which was shown at
the opening was followed by a general
unsettlement of the speculative situa
tion. due chiefly to the heavy offerings
of Rock Island, which declined 5V4 points
to 28V Most of the leading Issues lost
all of their early gains
Erie declined from to 28V* and
Maxwell Motors yielded to 46, a loss of
2V4 points. Centarl Leather dropped to
404*. a loss of 2 points and Southern
Railway Vi to 187».
American Can was about the strong
est issue, rising 1 point to 30V*.
Money loaning at 2 per cent.
Prices again moved upward in the first
half of the last hour’s trading. Max
well Motors was prominent, selling
around 49, against 45 at noon. Bethle
hem Steel was conspicuous, advancing
from 133 to 141. The tone was strong.
The market closed buoyant. Govern
ments unchanged; other bonds strong;
except Rock Island.

WATKINS BUREAU MAKES CUT
IN COTTON ACREAGE 18.6*
The second report of the Watkins’
Cotton Statistical Bureau of H. F. Bach
man & Co., of New York, as of April 10,
relates to weather conditions, the sea
son compared with normal, the progress
in planting and the Indicated acreage
that will be devoted to cotton
on March 20 the bureau showed a
contemplated reduction in acreage of
20.9 per cent, or a total acerage of 29.-
280,000. The indicated cotton acreage is
now 30,035,000, a decrease of 18.6 per
cent as compared with last year.
The results of the bureau's Investiga
tion are summarized as follows:
“The weather the past month has
been favorable for crop preparations and
f *lantin» in 229, partly so in 114 and un-
avorable in 235 counties. Cold weather
and too much rain Interfered with
tarmwork a good portion of the time.
“The season is about normal In 81
counties, and nearly two weeks later
than normal in all other sections.
“In 207 of the counties about 20 per
cent of the crop Is planted, while In 371
little or no planting has been done.
“The crop has not had a favorable
start owing to continuous cold, wet
weather, much less fall and winter
plowing has been done, and generally
speaking, the lands are In a poorer state
of preparation than usual. Our corre
spondents again lay especial stress upon
the largely decreased use of fertilizers
as compared with last year. The in
crease fVi the corn acreage, 18 per cent,
is shown to be in almost exact propor
tion to the Indicated decrease In tne cot
ton acreage. The change from 20.9 per
cent as the indicated decrease In the
cotton acreage one month ago. as com
pared with 18.6 on April 10, Is accounted
for by the Increase In the value of cot
ton. amounting to above $7 a bale, and
also unfavorable weather preventing
the contemplated corn acreage. The
final cotton acreage is still largely de
pendent upon the stands of corn obtain
ed. and the price of cotton before the
final planting.
The Indicated acreage in cotton and
corn by State® follows; •

News and Notes on
the Grain Crops
CHICAGO, April 20.-George M. Le-
Count has telegraphed the following
from Concordia. Kans.: “Wheat acre
age about same as year ago. Wheat
looks good generally. Condition improv
ing. Weather favorable.”
* * •
The VanPusen-Harrington Company,
of Minneapolis, says: “During the past
week rain has fallen In all portions of
three Southwestern States, \ has been
of great benefit in melting the snow left
In the fields last week. Field work is
now in progress in all portions of three
States and seeding is commencing. We
might summarize by saying the condi
tions are everything that could be de
sired at the present time.”
• • •
Broomhall’s Liverpool cable says:
””! he weather in Argentina continues
unsettled with rain in parts. The pro
longed wet spell Is seriously interfering
with deliveries of all grain and seed and
the forecast Is for bad weather. The
export demand Is unprecedented for all
grain and seed. Gathering of corn has
been stopped in parts and generally In
terfered with. Harvesting is general.”
• • •
King. Farnum & Co. say: ’’Weather
keeps dry east of the Mississippi, and
there is increasing scarcity of cash
wheat. Seaboard exporters report slow
demand for our wheat, but as our sur
plus is sold and Europe will need more
wheat than Argentine can afford, we
are still of the opinion the scarcity of
wheat will prevail soon, and will war
rant very high prices not only for May,
but July as well.”
Early Reaction Wied Out on Re-
newde Buying by Spot Houses
and Short Covering.
NEW YORK. April 20.—Influenced by
lower Liverpool cables than due, the lo-
cal cotton market opened barely steady
to-day, with prices at a net decline of
« to 11 points from Monday’s close. Liv
erpool and Wall street sent in some"
good selling orders, which widened the
initial range to 8 to 13 points within the
first half hour of trading.
There was no feature to the market
and operations were mixed after the
call. However, sentiment continues
very bullish, although there was more
or less talk of a further reaction. The
decline Induced rebuying by sold-out
longs and some of the leading bulls were
In the market with good buying orders
during the forenoon with the result that
the list rebounded to a range of 1 to 3
points over the opening quotations.
Bullish predictions that the reaction
was only temporary materialized in the
early afternoon when they rushed, the
list 11 to 13 points above the early low
range on a batch of good buying orders.
J here was renewed buying for account
of spot houses and shorrts were quick

COTTON MARKET OPINIONS.
S. B. Chapin & Co.: “The long side
of the market still looks more attrac
tive for following a conservative trading
position for moderate profits from this
level than the selling side."
• * •
Thompson. Rhonnard Sr Co.: “Our
opinion on cotton remains unchanged of
ultimately higher prices, but we prefer
to wait for a reaction before entering
the long side of the market.”
* * •
M. D. Burnley: “Owing to the weak
ness In stocks late yesterday afternoon
I would not he surprised if Wall street
sold some cotton this morning. I do not
look for much decline, however, as the
cotton market is not overbought. I
would take advantage of any dip to
buy.”
• • •
E. F. Hutton & Co.: “Some selling
from Wall street aources is likely to
day, and should a break occur, we would
take advantage of same and buy cot
ton.”
HAYWARD & CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, April 30.—The mar
ket has lately become such a one-sided
affair that the character of the advance
created doubt and distrust. Liverpool
acted that way to-day, futures about 6
points lower than due. although spots
were quoted 5 points higher and sales
are large, total 10,000 bales.
, Good rains fell overnight over the
western half of the belt and are slowly
moving eastward.
First trades here were at a decline of
about 8 points and the market weakened
further under more general realizing.
Fear of speculative power and feeling
In Wall street held selling in check, the
more so as early advices from New York
reported bull Interests trying to stem
liquidation. The forecast yesterday by
a New York bureau of 19 per cent de
crease in acreage Is greatly In contrast
with the finding by competent Southern
sources, and the promise of 17,009.000
bales consumption this season Is diffi
cult to harmonize with the deficit in
mil} takings of 2,100.000 bales shown so
far by statistics and the season closes
in three months and ten days from date.
That there is now some dissension of
opinion even at headquarters is shown
by the following wire from a leading
New York house:
“Recent buying largely speculative:
short Interest small: think advance more,
than discounts bullish features and
sharp reaction lkely at any moment.”
Northern mill reports are good. The
advance in goods prices and liberal cir
culation of capital is pushing business.
The large spot sales in Texas yester
day are in line wdth reports that hold
ers are inclined to sell at 10 cents. As
there is little export demand, the cotton
Is being bought and held against high
futures. Spots here are dull, although
offerings are liberal.
Although the market was strongly
supported from time to time by leaders,
the tone is not as confident as it was,
and there are many more willing to
realise on bulges.
