SLIGHT REACTION
 IN STOCK MARKET Bear Element Was Backed Off
 the Field, DECLINES WERE OVERCOME The Market Showed Itself Much Less Sensitive Than for Some Time Past To Depressing Influences.
 Close Was Firm
DECLINES WERE OVERCOME

New York, May 16.-Stocks of railroad companies made demonstration of per sistent strength in the stock market today. Whatever unfavorabe factors developed during the delivery were ignored or their influence resisted and the resulting declines overcome.
 The bear element was so far impressed by the show of strength that they got tired of the field before the day was over and did not repeat yesterdays maneuver of a fierce raid on the industrial quarter which on that occasion upset the market in the last fifteen minutes of trading. The mar ket showed itself much less sensitive than for sometime past to any depressing in fluence and the close was distinctly firm at the best level of the day; earlier losses in the industrial stocks having been al- most entirely overcome.
 Although the advance in stocks was gen. erally wiped out when the gold engage ments were announced and the upward movement was resumed upon further consideration of the circumstances. It is the conviction on Wall street that only a small amount of this gold can be shipped to London on Saturdays steamer under present conditions. Todays advance in prices was without the sustaining influence of recent strength in Missouri Pacific, that stock dropping back at one time two points on the request to stockholders to authorize an additional capital to the extent of $15.- 000, 900. This partly recovered on the expla- nation that the new issues must be re- served for retirement of debenture bonds. The bond market was dull and only part ly shared in the strength of stocks Total sales par value, S11S5,O00. United States refunding 2s when issued declined A, and the 3s IS in the bid price.

Stock Letter

Purnell, Hagaman & Co.'S Stock Letter to
 H. D. Cothran & Co.
 New York May 16.-The stock market opened strong, encouraged by London's con- tinued purchases. The announcements of gold engagements for export tomorrow were larger than had been generally ex- pected and they were utilized for sharp attack on the list, the chief sufferers being the iron and steel issues, American and Con- tinental Tobacco, Sugar and Missouri Pa cifc. The railroad department showed de- cided resistance even while the raid was in progress against the industrials. Foreign houses were large buyers and their pur- chases were sustained. The other side in- dicated that the London market was in clined to hold it's own. Talk of an increased dividend imparted especial strength to Atchison preferred. Other strong railroad stocks were Burlington and Quency, Union Pacific, Pennsylvania, Louisville and Nash vile and Reading. The iron and steel is- sues were strong. American Tobacco rallied sharply from the lowest, showing a small fractional net gain. Sugar was sharply de- pressed in search for large stop loss or der, but ended only at a slight loss. Leather preferred was heavy. The market closed strong with heavy covering of shorts on reports tht in spite of the weeks gold ex- ports, the city banks might be able to show a gain. or at least no loss in reserves.

COTTON MARKET
 WAS AGAIN WEAK There Was a Little Buying on. Theory of Reaction. STEADlED AT THE CLOSE Local Trade Continued to Sell on the Theory that Long Interest
 Yet Remained to be
 Liquidated
STEADIED AT THE CLOSE

New York, May 16.-The cotton market opened active but weak, declining 3 to 9 points on the first cal with subsequent business increasing the decline to to 17 points under a tremendous selling move ment, largely for the purpose of liqudating long account.
 There was some buying on the theory of a reaction from an oversold market. The weakness was due to private accounts re- flecting a demoralized condition of affairs in the English market in response to the weakness here Selling orders from the south were very heavy, while receipts at the ports were larger. Notwithstanding these bearish conditions there were few rallies with conservative shorts inclined to take profits. The local trade as a rule, however, continued to sell on the theory that long interest yet remained to be liquidated in the face of unfavorabe con- ditions at Manchester and Lancashire.
 Just prior to the close the market stead fed on brisk profit taking and was finally steady at net decline of to Il points on present crop months, and unchanged to points higher on new crop deliveries.
