COTTON GAINED : : :
4 TO 7 POINTS
Bear Element Made Uneasy by
News of Contemplated Squeeze
ROOM TRADERS IN CONTROL
Attempt to Depress the Market Met
With Failure, and for Time
Prices lowered Around
the Top Notch.

New York, April 26.-The cotton market
opened steady in tone, with prices 1 point
lower to points higher. During the first
few minutes less irregularity prevailed,
owing to conflicting rumors regarding the
reception of some 10000 May notices, which
had been put in circulation by certain
houses with the intention, it is understood,
of depressing the market. Developments
soon demonstrated that these tenders were
being rapidly gathered in by the crowd,
and as material result the houses sending
out the notices made scramble to recover
as many as possible. This demand sent
May up points in short order, with the
rest of the list following suit, although less
rapidly and on a smaller scale.
By midday the market had settled into
the old rut, and for the rest of the session
ruled generally quiet, with room traders
in control. Prices lowered within a point
or two of the top notch on scattered de-
mand from shorts, together with light buy
ing which drited in from Wall street. The
bear element, while satisfied with the crop
and weather news, were made uneasy by
persistent rumors of a contemplated
squeeze of August shorts, and by estimates
for much smaller receipts at the larger m
ner towns and ports.
At the close the market was steady, with
prices to points higher.

By Private Wire to Paine, Murphy & Co.
Birmingham, April 26.-Foreign cables
were weak today and the export demand
has been very slack and prices have been
dragging during the session. The spring
wheat seeding is progressing rapidly under
most favorable conditions The bulk OF
crop will be sown by the close of the week
Possibly some delay in a few of the most
northern countries In the northwest the
average is likely to exceed that of last year,
with marked excess on the Pacific coast.
Public and private reports are not likely to
show anything not already known concern

are liberal enough in view of the fact that
farmers are very busy on field work. Corn
ruled steady. Not much demand for hog
consumption, and export speculation lot
active. Privisions have been firm, mostly
changing May for later deliveries. Packers
are the principal traders in futures.
