Lowrey, Reece & Co.’s Letter,
New Orleans, April 25.—(By private
wire to Lowrey, Reece & Co.)—The
price of cotton was put below the 7c
mark this morning on much the same
kind of a market that has been seen
for the last week or two. The under-
tone was easy, but on no partioular
aggressiveness from the bears, and the
market seemed to go down of its own
weight. The weekly weather and crop
reports were much more favorable than
expected. The summary wired from
Washington said that during the week
cotton planting had been active under
favorable conditions over the greater
part of the belt and that chopping had
begun in southern Texas and some por-
tions of the eastern belt, and that cul-
tivation had been begun In Georgia.
Mention was made of considerable dam-
age to young plants by frost on the
17th in Georgia, Alabama and the
Carolinas, but as this was eight days
ago the trade generally considered that
whatever damage had been done had
been discounted. Mention was made
of delay to planting by rain in the
northern portion of the belt, but this
’i pressure from general commission
7 house selling, presumably liquidation.

south and the big receipts, opened easy
at a loss of 8 and 8 points. The local
bear crowd raided the market imme-
diately after the opening and soon had
prices off to a net loss of about 6 points,
when it rallied 8 or 4 points on cover
ing preparatory to the weekly weather
report. Following this report, which
was the usual noncommittal affair,
prices went off again to the lowest
point of the day under Wall street
liquidation, selling by New Orleans and
Liverpool and the operations of bear
leaders, while about the only support
seemed to be covering by smaller
shorts on a scale"down. According to
our advices, while low grades of spots
are being offered pretty freely in the
south, better grades are being held
more firmly and spot holders on the
whole are showing less inclination to
follow the decline in futures. The

market, speculative end of the business
showed considerable improvement. Con-
sidering the character of the buying, we
feel this improvement was brought
about largely from packers’ support and
some short covering. Market still

an address in the interest of the South-

farmers, with a good sprinkling of

men in the south for the movement to
secure a diversification of the crops,
reducing the cotton acreage and the
edualizaton of the law of supply and
demand. He recommended that the
farmers adopt the system employed by
Italian immigrants, who come here and

to bring about something of a reac-

improved a few points, there was lack
of snap to the market and it was plain
to be seen that the tendency was down-
ward. The large movement was the
discouraging feature, on the approach
of May notice day tomorrow. The
coming of the latter occasioned a great
deal of reluctant selling of the coming
option, which had an unfavorable ef-
fect upon the whole list. The heavy
receipts offer every evidence of the in-
terior spot holders failing to keep their
pledge of holding the surplus from the

Sanger A Ettelson’s Letter.
Chicago, April 25.—(By private wire
to Sanger A Ettelson.)—Unchanged for
May; 5-80 higher for July. The gov-
ernment weekly report on spring wheat
seeding well advanced. Our market
closed with a better feeling brought
about by less pressure on May and an
improved tone in the deferred futures.
Farly in the session May advanced full
2c over yesterday's close, but the dose
today was unchanged. The price on the
deferred futures cams in the early deal-
ings, no doubt caused by the moisture
over the western wheat country. The
market today seems tn give evidence
that the tension has been to a degree
removed and while at times nervous, it
showed considerable stubbornness.
