New York, Apr. 16 The situation and .outlook of the cotton market remains the same today as outlined m our re cent letters. The trade is awaiting the outcome of the "deal" in the May op tion, a definite line on which will prob ably not be forthcoming until the first day for issuing notices tor deliveries, Tills, will not occur until April .28. Meanwhile the outlook for a good start to the new crop has been Im proved during the week by the relief to recent dry conditions in the Atlantic and gulf states. The extensive storm which swept over Louisiana, Missis stop! and 'Arkansas this morning Is now, extending to Alabama, Georgia and the Carolines: Clear weather and warmer temperature are developing In Texas and this will succeed the stbrm as it passes off the Atlantic coast. Therefore no further apprehension is felt regarding the need of further moisture anywhere In the cotton belt at present. Planting operations will be rapidly pushed as soon as the soil dries out and develop germination so extensively the new crop options will be more difficult to bull. Any fresh bull movement can only develop at present under these cir cumstances from' a more active trade demand for the actual cotton or the resumption of aggressively bullish ac tivity against the shorts in the old crop option by. the bull clique. Pending such developments trading should be contin ued along scalping lines for moderate turns with purchases of July and August most favorable on further breaks, while sales of October continue more advisable on such rallies as may be influenced in the new crop options in sympathy with such movements in May,; July and August..

Alcohol Lamp." "How Was I to Know," VThe BiUiken Man," The Same Old Moon" and "Satis- fled." tha last, two being the best, .:. The most ' effective scenic effects were the. demonstrations of weather making and the sunburst chorus. Nell McNeil as the ' April Fool" was the best of the cast..
