New York, April 24.-There is nothing in
the movement OF cotton or weather con-
dition to cause enthusiasm at the mo-
ment. AT Liverpool the situation is thus
described: Operators can scarcely have
failed to observe the small cotton exports.
This fact, it is said, while tending to
strengthen Liverpool, must have a con-
trary tendency in New York. The Euro
pean buyers will not buy, either because
Europe has already bought all 1t wants
or because it fights shy of the grades now
offered. The satisfactory outlook for
Egyptian cotton is confirmed"
The feature of the market today was
liquidation in May. covering loss of seven
points. Other months were down four to
five points. The present outlook for the
crop is too good to encourage friends of
the new positions. Gables were unchanged
from Saturday and this weakened the New
York market.

morrow except in Alabama. The weather

Meeting of the North Capitol and
lexington Organizations.
meeting of the North Capitol and
lexington Citizens Association was held
last night at their hail, at Lincoln end
Ohio Avenues northeast, A. r. Severn pre-
sided, with A. o. Tingley as secretary.
The membership committee reported the
unanimous election of Joseph Hazard, jr.,
as member of the association. The exc
cutive committee stated that the paving
of North Capitol Street from Florida Ave-
nue to r Street is to be done as soon as
possible after the electric railway is com
pleted. The railway committee stated that
the lexington and Soldiers Home Rail-
way have promised to be in opera ton by
May 10. /. B. Linton, chairman of the
committee on schools and schoolhouses,
was advised to consider the subject of an
other school, the present one being in an
overcrowded condition, and also to urge
before the Commissioners the establish
ment of kindergarten the next school
year.
letter was read by the secretary from
w. s. Knox, President of the Business
Mems Association, in reply to a complaint
that their delegate to the Peace Jubilee
w. G Henderson. was treated discour-
teously by former Director w. S. Mexican.
Mr.. Knox stated that at that time Mr..
Mexican was not acting as a representative
of the Business Mems Association, but as
secretary for the general committee of the
Peace Jubilee. He was personally very
sorry there had been any friction between
Messrs. Henderson and Mexican, and would
present their grievance to the board OF
directors OF the Business Mems Associa-
tion. He reminded them that theirs was
the only association in this city that had
not given the Peace Jubilee hearty CO.
operation. ,,
The trouble with the North Capitol
and lexington Citizens Association be-
gan when the subject of Jubilee was first
broached. The association passed resolu-
tions to the effect that next year rather
than this would be better period for a
celebration, but a clause was added that
if the majority favored the latter their
representative was to acquiesce. They
allege that Mr. Mexican. learning theil
instructions, refused TO allow their dele
gate to be present at the conferences. He
was withdrawn and since then they have
| maintained a dignifed silence.

New York. April 24.-The week opened
rather auspiciously for the long account
in the stock market Saturdays bank
statement. the more seasonable weather
and expectations of favorable traffic re-
turns for March TO be submitted this
week might have been expected to have
created a demand for stocks in the days
market, but as a matter Of fact the de-
mand was in disappointing volume. After
opening irregular. but with smart upward
movements in a number of the specialties
and industrial shares, the market became
reactionary and dull.
The sole actual feature of the situation
of a disturbing character was the rift
in the diplomatic sky, growing out of the
utterances of a naval officer at a semi
public dinner last week. The amount of
publicity given to this matter, in the press
of this country and Europe was bound to
concentrate attention upon the involved
possibilities. and indeed the situation was
the chief subject of the days discussion.
While the affair was accounted as of suffi-
cient Importance to warrant hesitation in
new speculative ventures, il seemed to
be the common opinion that it would be
properly settled before il threatened to
The easier money market conditions
foreshadowed in the bank statement were
realized today, and the banks voluntarily
reduced the rates on standing call loans
TO per cent. Much of the new borrow
ing was effected under these figures. This
circumstance was logically reflected in the
bond and general investment market, even
though its speculative effect was, as noted
chiefly negative OF the traffic returns
submitted today the most interesting ex-
hihifs were those of Jersey Central and
Southern railway companies. The former
company made a really remarkable show
ing. its net returns for March increasing
nearly i20 per cent. In regard to Jersey
Central il was announced today that the
new issue of stock TO be made for the
purpose of retiring some s4,500. 900 of ma
turing bonds will be offered 10 the stock
holders at par Shareholders of record
may subscribe to the extent of 20 per cent
of their holdings.
The stock market was extremely dull
throughout the day and interest was rather
poorly diffused. The granger shares, the
Pacific issues, New York Central, and the
other standard shares were all dull and
heavy. The shares of the Southern roads
were fairly active and were also reaction
ary- The trading was heaviest In Sugar
Refining. in which instance the trade

There was nothing bullish in the action
of the stock market yesterday, and in this
il was undoubtedly disappointment to
many who had believed the good bank
statement of last week and the generally
hopeful condition of affairs would cause
a rally In prices this week. The opening
was at higher prices than those OF sat
urday and for few minutes there was
good buying of several stocks that looked
like the beginning of a rally. Later the
tactics of the professionals, so much IN
favor last week, were begun again, with
heavy selling and a general hammering of
the entire list. This was kept up until
the close and the losses for the day
amounted TO a point or more on the aver
age. There was tendency in some quar-
tiers TO attach considerable importance TO
the international possibilities OF the Cogh-
Ian incident and some short selling sas
INDUCED in on this account. The best
