On the Break the Bears Resumed Their Aggressive Trading The Attacks

 the Summer Months

New York April 3.-The course of the cot ton market today was varied, with each side subject to periods of nervousness. The strength of the Liverpool market was a surprise, and our market opened steady with prices 1 to points higher in conse- quence. Shorts were excited buyers throughout the call. quick reaction in the English market led to local liquidation, and prices fell rapidly to level 143 points under last nights figures. On the break bears resumed their aggressive trading, at Jacks being principally at the summer months. Near mld-day the market once again made a sudden shift and quickly re- covered from the depression, with noon figures showing a net rise of 5@7 points.
 On the rise reports came in through houses having European connections to the effect that the selling movement had about run its course in the English market, as most of the weakly held long stuff had been eliminated. A bullish semiweekly in terior movement report added to the bet ter feeling in the mid-afternoon, while pre- dictions for waning interior receipts kept the late market steady. Trading was only fair. The market closed quiet and steady at a net advance of to Il points.

Financial

New York, April 3.--The Commerciaq-Ad- vertiser's London financial cablegram says:
 There was considerable reduction in busi- mess today on, account of the approach of Easter. The most pronounced activity was in Americans, which, however sagged all day, and in them a smaller volume of busi- mess was done than for some time. Most transa otions were profit-takng.
 Consols are hardening on easier money. Paris sold it's favorites, this being pay day. Tintos were over 59, and closed 5Ss4. Lon don bought Anacondas largely up to 11as. New York proit-taking caused a relapse to 11h. The. bank lost e3O,000 gold to South America, e2000O to Roumania, and 900 to an unstated destinations. Twenty-four thousand pounds in bars was bought. The large amount of money due the bank was wholly repaid. Many sold silver, but Indian buying was revived.

STOCK MARKET
 WAS UNSETTLED Federal Steel and B. 6 0. lm-
 portant Factors. TRUNK LINES WERE FIRM
The Money Market Worked Somewhat Easier and Bonds Continued Ac- tive, Changes Being Mixed
 Total Sales S4,75o,ooo

New York, April 3.-The two most po- tent factors in teday's stock market were Federal Steel and the B. -& o. stocks. The pressure to liquidate the former had a de- cidedly unsettIing influence on the whole market in the morning and the strength of the latter stock served to stiffen prices during the afternoon and to retrieve to a large extent to the early decline. The open ing in Federal Steel was wide and the price was soon carried down to 49, drop of 42s from yesterdays close It rallied two points but went off again in the last fifteen minutes to the lowest developing renewed signs of weakness in the rest of the list. The selling of stock was due to the partial admission that the failure to amend the charter yesterday at the annual meeting was equivalent to the abandonment of fur ther dividend distributions this year ow- ing to the legal obstacles.
 The trunk lines were firm on the large eastbound shipments besides the sympa- thetic effect of the movement of the B. & O. stocks. Sugar was actively dealt in, but after early decline of over point mounted upward four points on the report ed decrease in the price of raw Sugars The prices eased off in the late decline bringing the net advance down to IA. The money market worked somewhat easier.
 The bond market continued active and changes were mixed. Total sales, par value, $4,750,0G0 United States 3s coupon, new Is and 5s declined Ii in the bid price.
