NEW ORLEANS COTTON
New Orleans.—Cotton bulged 16 to 18
points in the first half of business on
this market today on a buying wave
stimulated by good cables, low' tempera
tures in the belt and complaints of too
much rain in a few sections. Brokers
■with buying orders found little for sale
in spite of the prospect that the drought
in the Atlaritics would be broken.
Moderate realizing on the part of longs
made its appearance and at noon prices
were eleven to twelve points up, net.
Cotton opened steady. Opening bid:
July and October 13.10; December 13.21;

NEW YORK COTTON
New York. —The're was a renewal of
active general buying at the opening of
the cotton market today and first prices
were firm at an advance of nine to four
teen points with old crop deliveries
making new high ground for the move
ment. Firmness in Liverpool, appre
hensions that lower temperature would
accompany rains in the South and the
persistency of peace rumors seemed to
be bringing in a big demand from bulls
who had taken profits last week, as
well as fresh buying and covering of
shorts. July contracts sold up to 13.33
and October to 13.30, or about fourteen
to sixteen points net higher. There was
a good deal of realizing at this level and
prices later reacted four or five points.
After the advance to 13.13 for July
and 13.30 for October the market be
came rather irregular as a result of
heavy realizing. Offerings were well
enough absorbed by fresh buying to give
prices a steady undertone at reactions of
five to six points from the best however,
and trading was less active during the
middle of the day with July ruling
around 13.20 and October 13.24 or about
nine to twelve points net higher. Liv
erpool was an active buyer of July here
during the first hour.
Cotton futures opened firm: May

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET
New York —War shares and related is
sues showed material gains at the open
ing of today’s market, Crucible Steel,
Mexican Petroleum and the shipping
shares rising a point or more with less
substantial advances in motors and
metals. Reading was the foremost fea
ture, early dealings compromising nu
merous individual lots ranging from 1,-
000 to 2,000 shares at 93 to 93%. and
continuing its rise to 94%, a new high
quotation. Canadian Pacific and Le
high Valley were included in the other
strong rails. Distilling issues and
Harvester Corporation rigured among
the less prominent specialties with gains
of, one to two points.

GAUGE INDICATES
A VERY LOW RIVER
Th«t official gauge on the river
showed seven feet this morning. This
Is the lowest stage the river has reach
ed In May since 1904 with hut one ex
ception. This exception was on May
31st, 1911. five years ago, when the
gauge read 6.9 ft.
The normal, compiled from the re
cords dating hack to 1876, for the river
at this time In the year is 6.5 ft. Much
a deficiency at this time means an ex
tremely low river during the summer
months unless some unusual rslnfHll
occurs. The moisture in the soil that
is stored during the flrt four months
of the year Is depended upon to main
tain the ground water flow during the
summer.
BUT THERE'S STILL BRICK
UNDER IT.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET
Chicago, lll.—Wheat prices underwent
a fresh setback today influenced by as
sertion that the general condition of the
Kansas crop was not alarming. There
w r ere also favorable crop advices from
the Dakotas and Minnesota. Opening
prices, which ranged from Vi to %<q\
lower, including July at 1.15% to 1.16*4,
and September at 1.16 to 1.16 Vi, were fol
lowed by a material further decline.
Corn yielded a little to the influence
of wheat weakness. After opening Vs off
to Vi up the market hardened some
what and then receded all around to be
low yesterday’s finish.
Oats eased off with other grain.
Strength in the hog market lifted pro
visions.
Announcement by the British foreign
secretary that the Vatican had made
representations to Germany in an effort
to have Germany abandon submarine
warfare brought about decided breaks
in wheat prices. The market closed
heavy, 2% to 3%@3% net lower with
July at 112‘k and September at 113%.
In later dealings, the corn market gave
way with wheat. Prices closed weak
at % to %@lc net decline.
