GERMAN NOTE
Prefers to Get Actual Contents of
Documents Before Making
New Moves.
By BROADAN WALL.
NEW YORK, May 29.—Notwith-
•landing report* that the German note
would be of a conciliatory nature,
$Vall atreet to-day maintained its pol
icy of "watchful waiting." preferring
to get the actual content* of the note
before making new commitments.
This resulted in another session of
3Ugh: trading with narrow price fluc
tuations. that resulted in unimportant
Dew changes for the day.
| At the opening prices showed but
trifling changes. small fractional
Jains and losses being about equally
divided. Scattered selling before the
•nd of the flrst hour of copper shares
and war atocka caused an easing off
In prices, in which Steel lost more
than half a point and Union Pacific
fialf a point, with the war stocks down
! to 2 points. In the last hour there
was a rally, led by Union Pacific and
Steel, each gaining a point from the
days low. closing the list strong, hut
^Ith most Issues showing slight frac
tional net losses
Sentiment in favor of the railroad
•hares was helped by the decision of
Jwo St. Paul Justices enjoining the
fMoroement of the 2-cent passenger
rate law' in Arkansas and granting
railroads operating in that State a
rate of 3 cents per mile. This w'll

Orleans Cause Net Loss of
One to Two Points.
NEW YORK, May 29—The cot'on
market was easy to-day In liquida
tion by longs and weakness at New
Orleans, finishing at a net decline >t
1 r u 2 points There was covering at
times. The market appeared to have
discounted a Government condition
report slightly above 80. Business
w as, on a small scale The Journal
of Commerce makes the condition >f
the plant 80.4, against an average
date of May 23. Port receipts for the
day were about 8,000 bales, against
18,169 bales last week. 12 697 bales
last year and 14.389 bales In 1913.
The general visible supply Is 6,416.-
•66 bales, against 4,858,641 balq* last
vear The American supply is 4.670,-
966 bales, against 2.802.641 bales.
As an offset to the selling of de
tained cotton by the English Govern
ment and the entrance of Italy into
the war, shutting off Germany’s sup
ply through Genoa and Switzerland
it was pointed out that the demand
for cotton goods 1n the United States
of every description would soon bring
the problem of increasing the work
ing time of the mills to the attention
of the manufacturers
There were no cables from Liver
pool to-day. but business will be re
sumed In the English market Mon-

Weekly Review of
Atlanta Produce
May Future Market Goes Out of
Existence With Drop From
$1.41 to $1.37.
By JOSEPH F. PRITCHARD.
CHICAGO, May 29.—New wheat cf
the year of 1916 cut a figure in the
matter of price-making on the Chi
cago Board of Trade to-day. This
grain was purchased by Chicago
houses in Oklahoma and Texa.s, and
“hedging” sales in the July future
were put out against it. Additional
amounts of new wheat were offered,
and it Is expected that the move
ment the eomln'r Week will show vast
increases In all parts of the winter
wheat belt.
Farmers who are now carrying old
wheat will, It Is likely, dispose of at
least a part of it, as crop prospects
have Improved some the past few
days, or since the forward march of
the Insects was halted by the rains.
The new* crop months were lower,
with the July showing a net loss of
lc and the September was off 1-So.
When the fact is considered that the
May future was forced downward^
from $1.41 to $1.37. the other months^
held up well. With the closing of the
Roard of Trade to-day the life of the
May future came to an end.
Cash sales here were 30,000 bushels,
of w hich 5,000 bushels were to millers
and 25,000 bushels to exporters.
There were losses In corn of
1-2c and declines in oats of 1-4fQ)
1 l-4c. There was more or less liqui
dation by the longs In both these
coarse grains, and the buving power
was not as strong as earlier in the
week.
COFFEE AND SUGAR HOLIDAY.
NEW YORK, May 29.—The coffee and
sugar markets were closed to-day. Be
ginning tefday, the Yaw and refined de
partments* of the sugar market will be
closed Saturdays during the summer
ELGIN BUTTER.
ELGTN. ILL, May 29.—Seven hundred
tubs of butter sold on the Elgin Board
of Trade to-day at 28c per pound, the
same price as last week, and 50 tubs
at 27c a pound.
The Fidelity Fruit and Produce Com
pany, In their weekly letter to the trade,
say:
“While our market has been badly
overstocked on a few lines. It is in very
good shape on most varieties. The re
ceipts of squashes, cucumbers and to
matoes have been heavier than the
demand which caused prices to break to
around $1 per drum. We have informed
the growers and shippers, who will no
doubt divide their .shipments to other
markets and send only enough to At
lanta to supply the demand, which will
enable us to get satisfactory prices for
their goods. Beans, while around $1.25
per drum, are cleaning up daily, re
ceipts are heavy. The potato market
has been better than usual, with Flor
ida receipts cleaning up without a break
in prices. The Georgia and South Caro
lina crop is now moving at very good
prices with receipts Just about equal to
the demand. The low price for beans
has practically stopped the sale of cab
bage; very little demand. The Florida
celery crop is over, only the green sum
mer variety to be had, which Is now
selling at satisfactory prices. Lettuce Is
very scarce. Peppers of good quality is
in limited supply. The receipts of Ber
muda onions are heavy from Florida,
Georgia and Louisiana, and we look for
the price to decline within the next few
days.
“The market is strong for anything in
fruit, all peaches, strawberries and
cherries selling on arrival at good prices.
There is not enough got>d stock to supply
the demand. Pineapples from IHorlda
are becoming more plentiful, but selling
on arrival at good prices. The season
for Florida oranges and grapefruit is
over.
“We had the flrst cantaloupes of the
season out of Florida this week. The
crop Is expected to start in earnest next
week, which will be used in the place
of grapefruit. Contrary to expectations,
the lemon market is weak. We can see
no reason for a break In prices, since
our heaviest receipts come from Italy,
and the prospects of her attention being
called to more strenuous business than
shipping lemons there Is every reason for
the market to hold firm. Watermelons
should start next week. The crop re
ported short. Poultry Is firm, with
sllghtlv advanced prices. Eggs are about
the same as they have been for some
time.”
