New York, May l6.-Hubbard Bros.
g. co.'s cotton letter says: To the sur
prise Of the trade, Manchester appeared
in the market as buyer OF cotton to-
day, swelling the sales 10 1000 bales
and advancing the rival market 2-did
above yesterday, The feature OF the
market Is its lack OF vitality In the
face OF the improved condition OF husl-
ness In Manchester, rs the quotations
furnished from Europe are almost the
highest touched In that market on the
recent advance. Under the influence of
Liverpool buying our market closed
firm at the highest prices OF the day,
with generally a better feeling, as Il
result Of the Improvement in all mar
kets. Reports from New orleans are
to the effect that there Is excellent
demand for spot cotton In that market,
which undoniably had some effect in
advancing the market here during the
afternoon, but the main support came
from arbitrage operators, who were
free buyers against prospective sales
in Liverpool tomorrow.

New York, May i6.--rhe stock mar
ket at the opening was somewhat ir-
regular but a sharp buying movement
was quickly developed during the
rest of the day and strong tone pre-
vailed, prices moving upward steadily
TO the close, the final dealings being
notably buoyant and generally higher.
Buying for the foreign account and
the sale In London of 5000 shares Of
New York Central treasury stock were
important factors In the advance. The
sum realized on the New York Cen
trail is to be used for construction
and Improvement purposes The street
accepted the sale as Il mark Of renew
ed confidence in Aemerican securities
and the other leading stocks including
the rest of the Vanderbilt group. the
Changers. the Coalers and several OF
the industrials came into heavy de-
mand and by degrees most OF the list
took part in the appreciation IN val
ues. Great Northern, which closed at
1913 bid last night, sold to l82 on the
report that President I'M has secured
the control Of the Northern Pacific.

New York. May l6.-The Evening
Posts London cable says: There was
a slight increase In the coin and the
bullion in the Bank OF England this
week, although $1,000 pounds net were
exported, the details being 100000 to the
Cape and $4,000 Imported from Aus
tralia; 10000 pounds from Paris and
6OO0 pounds from Oporto
The increase In other securities is
believed to be due to the purchase Of
a large line Of India treasury twelve
months bills The stock market
opened weak today In sympathy with
a further break In the mining market,
difficulty being feared at the next carry
over. Americans. after weak OPEN

covered in sympathy with Americans
There was a panlcky fall In copper
on the break down OF the combination,
which was entirely due to the AmerI-
can producers refusing at the last mo-

that the European producers were not
