New York Cotton Market.

New York, April 27.-The feature Of to-
days operations in the cotton market was
the liquidation of cotton purchased on the
recent sharp advance. The selling was
started by weak English cables and reports
that southern spot markets were in a reac-
tionary condition. 1t was particularly
heavy in the May option. The market
opened easy. Trading, while fairly active,
was. of a local professional character. The
market closed steady, with prices showing
a net loss of Toll points.

New York, April 2T.--Another- discourage
ing Liverpool report and large deliveries on
May contracts caused a further decline in
the cotton market today. Liverpool, was
two to three and one-half sixty-fourths
lower and the spot sales there were again
small In sympathy with this dispatch our
market opened three to seven points lower.
Immediately after the opening heavy IL
quotation of May, induced by delivery no
tees, set in and this had depressing effect
upon the entire market. 1t also resulted
in widening the differences still further.
Liverpool Was moderate seller of the late
months. Prices gradually gave way
throughout the day. August opened at 6.26.
declined to 6.21 and closed at 6.22 to 6.23.
with the tone of the market steady The
diminution in the demand at Liverpool dis
couraged the bulls. We expect lower
prices. RIORDAN & co.

Birmingham, April H.-Liverpool futures

terday. Spot demand dull. Sales, 5000
bales. Prices 1-32 lower; middling, 1882
New York opened 5 to points under yes
terday's close in sympathy with weakness
abroad. The excitement of the past few
days has subsidized somewhat and the vol
ume of business has materially fallen OFT,
the disposition being to await decided de-
velopments regarding war. However, the
market rules comparatively steady, for
eigners being disposed to long up on any
reaction. The decrease in the demand for
spot is attributed to the unusually large
purchases made the past. two weeks.

little speculative inquiry here. The dif-
iculties in the western Australian market
have not yet been settled. Another failure
was announced today. AS result of the
Bank of England's policy In making ad-
vances of free interest, 100000 pounds in
gold has already been secured. The London
discount market would be easier but for the
fact that on May more than 1910 100000 of
the Chinese indemnity money TO be paid to
Japan will, with the exception of 100000
pounds to be retained by the Imperial Bank

In Wall Street.


New York, April 27.-Today's stock mar
ket was almost entirely without tone, the
total transactions footing up only $1,000
shares. The market drifted aimlessy and
over narrow range. The trading in Cana
dian Pacific and Northern Pacific saved
the market from utter stagnation. General
Electric strengthened on the showing of it's
annual statement. Kansas City, Pittsburg
and Gulf rallied ~ points on yesterday s
loss, which is said to have been due to APP
prehension that it's terminal port on the
gulf would be closed by the war. Hawaiian
common council recovered points of its
recent losses, which were said to be due
to apprehension that it's stock of sugar in
transit was liable to capture. Arbitrage
dealers sold most of the international
stocks, but bought Northern Pacific. Their
transactions, however, were insignificant.
The dullness in stocks Is no doubt due in
part to the transfer of speculative interest
to the wheat market.
Conditions in the money market seemed
to be working to an easier basis. Call loans
at the banks, which hold out for four per
cent are being repaid, as money can be had
for less than that in the street and time
loans are said to be made at shade below
6 per cent. which has been firmly held for
some time. The demand for funds from
the interior continued, but is not as large
as earlier in the week.
The bond market was intensely dull in
sympathy with stocks and prices were held
about steady. Total sales, 5000, 200. United
States old fours, registered, declined &c
in bid price and the new tours coupon were
&c lower bid than the sale price of yes
terday.
Total sales stocks today. $1,000 shares,
including Burlington, $780, Erie, preferred,

Paine Murph v ~ Co.'S Grain Letter

Birmingham, Ala, April 2I.-Disappoint-
ing cables and general encouraging crop
news were the arguments used this morn
ing to further the raiding of July wheat
that was inaugurated yesterday, when
Letter and Piilsbury sold out their hold
ings. The opening was fractionally below
yesterdays close, but rallied a half cent.
A concerted action by St. Louis and the
local crowd soon depressed prices and liqui-
dation by recent buyers helped the decline,
which was carried down over cents before
support was noticeable. The market con-
tinued erratic and feverish until after the
noon hour. when the report of prominent
failure abroad of shorts caused covering
which carried prices up cents bushei
from the early break To size up the day S
transactions, 1t is simply a case of manipu-
lation in face of conditions which have re-
suited in the manipulation by their own
petard. We have constantly bulled wheat
and for the past week put ourselves on
record. We see no reason to change our
views. Coarse grains are strong. We have
reason to believe July corn will sell cents
higher.
Provisions should be purchased on all re-
actions
