RALEIGH COTTON,
STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, April Speculation in
the industrials and the railroad stocks
showed distinct dividing line today.
Both departments were extremely irreg-
ular. but generally speaking, the indus
trials were strong and the railroads
were heavy. The sagging tendency Of
the railroads seemed to be due for the
most part, to selling to take profits.
The volume of the buying demand was
very much diminished and the realizing
was conducted therefore under that much
disadvantage. The selling was not in
great volume, but when it did attain
to any proportions the downward course of
prices was quite fast. There were some
points of strength in the railroad list
but the few advances were not we'll main-
tanned and were not effective in SUSTAIN
ing the rest of the market. Pennsylvania
was lifted at one time over a point and
other stocks to show strength, were Bal
timore and Ohio preferred, Missouri Pa

PRICE. MCCORMICK & co.'s LETTER.
Exporting Firms Seek to Break Market to Sc
cure Cotton More Cheaply For Export.

New York April 6.-Price, Mccormick
& Co, in their today's circular, says:
According to the New Orleans state
ment the visible supply shows a decrease
as compared with last week of $4,000
bales. The amount of cotton in sight in
Guiding the corrections made at the end
of the month is 117,000 bales, showing
that 301 900 bales have been absorbed dur
ring the week from the amount of cotton
available. The visible supply of Ameri-
can cotton tonight is 2,625000 bales,
which is a smaller visible supply than
we have had at any time since 1896,
when with a consumption of about fifty
per cent. less than at present cotton
went to 1924 cents. 1t looks as if the
world was fast running into a natural
corner and there is no reason in our opin-
ion why those who hold the remnant of
this crop should sell it below 10 cents per
pound. At the present rate of absorption
peared before the first of August. and
prices must go to a point that will
check consumption. At present con-
sumption is apparently undiminished,
Vigorous efforts have been made by ex-
porting firms in New York during the
past two days to break the market in
the hope that they may secure the cot
ton they require more cheaply, but the
impression that has been made upon it
is trifling and the addition to the short
interests is at least 100000 bales. The
short interests in August contracts alone
in New York we estimate at 100000 bales.

New York. April 6.-The cotton market
opened steady with prices points lower
to four points higher. following favorable
Liverpool cables. After the opening the
general list Ievelled up to an advance of
407 points on yesterdays prices, partly
on the strength of the Liverpool cotton
statement which had Enthusiastically bull
ish significance. After waiting in vain
for the Wall Street contingent to renew
their recent buying tactics, some of the
room operators commenced to SELL in
the absence of outside or public support;
and the market eased off 7@10 points
from the best figures of the morning.
Selling was accelerated by generally fav-
orable crop and weather accounts and
also by reports of weakness in Southern
spot markets. At most, however. it was
narrow market with the local hesitation
increased by unsatisfactory accounts
from the dry goods market, which pointed
to materially smaller call for cotton

sgression, the bears showing very cau-
tious disposition, but the other Paclhc
stocks were sold more heavily than the
average to take profit. London was
free seller, with considerable influence
upon the sentiment and the news OF
trouble in British West Africa, and the
new mishap to the British troops in the
Free State prompted some selling at first
hand by the local traders. The industrlals
and Specialties made a notable show OF
strength, each apparently under the in
fiuence of some individual cases. sugar
was bid up against the shorts with the
suggestion that recent operations mlgS
have resulted in the transfer of control.
Peoples Gas moved up on persistent re-
ports of the absorption of the Ogden Gas
Company. The Rubber stocks were strong
on the dividend declarations and earn
ings statement. Leather and Tobacco
moved up under manipulation. The New
York public utilities moved upwards un-
der a demand from the short interest.
