New York, April THE cotton mar
ket to-day was entirely local. There
was a temporary rally of 304 points
on manipulation but near the close
prices gave way under selling pressure
and the close was easy at unchanged
to one point higher as compared with
Yesterdays closing. The substantial
features of the market were the full
exports and the decrease in the estima

There were some unfavorable reports
from the cotton mills stating that
prices had been reduced.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

New York, April THE feature Of
the shares speculation was the fact
that the general list proved superior
to pronounced weakness in American
Tobacco. The stock mentioned, even
reduced To full shares, surpasses any
of the list i'm extent of trading and
scored an exceptional loss of Az per
cent, closing at the lowest Of the day
This development was regarded gener-
ally in stock exchange circles with
feeling akin to satisfaction as demon
strating that the conspirators in the
stock had overshot their mark and
were now victims of their own ma
chinatioRs. The break in Tobacco was
yariously explained. One report was
that the traders, detecting attempts
on the part OF insiders to unload had
taken away the market The decline
was also attended by unconfirmed ru-
mors Of injunction proceedings TO res
train the payment of the 20 per cent.
script dividend and il was finally stat
ed that the authorities OF the stock
exchange had been called to investi-
gate the methods of the management
Of the American Tobacco Company
The last report was denied by an Of
ficer OF the exchange.
Influences upon the general market
were Of negatively favorable charac-
ter. 1t had been expected that the
decisive vote in the House in favor OF
the recognition of the Cubans as belli-
gersnts would be marked in the re-
sumption of business on the London
stock exchange after the Easter holt
day by heavy selling Of American Sc

RALFIGH COTTON MARKET.

III BifA RID BROS. COTTON LETTER
New York, April (special) Our.
market, though quiet, shows contin-
nency Of the undertone Of strength in
small business, to which we have re-
Gently called attention. The demand
today has come entirely from local
source, but has absorbed all the offer
ings of cotton which appear to have
been supplied by the larger houses as
the orders have been executed on an
upward scale.
The weather throughout the cotton
belt appears to be more favorable, but
no attention is paid to any Of the fac
tors influencing the market, SO long as
there is little or no change of condition
Of trade, or in the demand for cotton
goods. Our local traders feel that the
small supply will prevent any decline
and, therefore, it is better to look for
an improvement from any depression,
rather than decline from any advance.
So far, however, the demand from gem
eral trade has not appeared Upon the
liquidation of a line of long cotton,
brought about by an intimation that
the movement thus far this week point
ed to an increase over last week, the
market closed easy. The local
trade feels bullish, but the buying
power seems limited.
