MARKET FOR FUTURES
THE BULL FORCES MEEr WITH
 A SETBACK.
They Showed Evidences of Nervous ness Owing to the Lack Of Re- sponse to the Legitimate
 Influences.

NEW YORK. June 21-Whila success full at the start today, the bull forces in cotton met with someth ng of d setback later and at times shoTsd many evidences of> nervousness owing to the lack of re- sponse by the market to legitimate infiu- ences. The opening wa; steady with prices unchanged to points higher. and during the first few minutes indications pointed to still further gains. Liverpool was fully 1 point higher than expected ana news from spinning districts proved to be radically bullish. But d turn in the character of foreign news and the ap- pearance of selling orders in July turned the scale against the market and prices slowly eased off. Liverpool eventual .ly stifened upon fine Manchester accounts and large demand for spot cotton in all European markets This caused prices here to work back to the opening. But early in the aft srnoon fresh qui- dation of July long stuff. some of h.ch appeared to come from the clique gave room holders cause for alarm and gen. erai selling set in. Thas movement car ried July off to S25 August to 1.15 and October to, 7.37. around which good buy ing came in and led to turn of shorts for cover. A forecast for contir"ed dry and very hot weather over the s. eIthwest strengthened bull sentiment and prompted investment buying for outside account. Spot cotton holders in the South we re- ported to be most arbitrary in thet TH They refused to sell even at substantial advances. The market wa ma and steady with prices net higher to lower.

NEW YORK. June 21.-Quotations for otton futures todny were as folioWs:
New Orleans Spot Cotton.

NEW ORLEANS, June 21.-There was not great deal doing in the market for spot cotton today Buyers were moving about among the sample rooms freely, but as a rule showed little disposition to trade. The present assortment on the tables Is not of a character to invite free trade even were factors inclined to make slight concessions which, by the way, hey are not willing to do. They are very much encouraged by the reported inn provement in the goods trade, as well as by the comparatively free movement of spots at Liverpool and hold for full figures. Sales, 500 bales. including 50 f. o. b. and $50 to arrive. Quotations un- changed.
 A moderate amount of trading ma, ked the progress of the future market today with transactions as rule representative of room trading. New Orleans showed a first call loss of 2q3 points on the several positions and during the day merely backed and filled over range of 4GD5 points Tn either direction without display Ing any decided inclination either to ad- vance or decline and at the close, com pared with yesterday, showed a net loss of 2G4 points on the entire list

DUN's TRADE REVIEW.
There are Few Clouds on Commerce's
 Horizon.

NEW YORK. June A.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of trade tomorrow will say;
 Increasing distribution of merchandise principally in the territory beyond the Ohio Ricer including the far NOrthw st. is feature of the general business stua- tion and tells of widespread prosper ty and confidence. The railroads are carrying more goods that may be chased as luxu- ries than ever before and in spite of Wall Streets slightly higher money market, there is no fear on this score in any line of legitimate trade. Crop news continues good. there is less trouble from db'agree- ments with labor and the long laggard cotton goods market has recovered slightly with the reduction of unsOld stocks of print cloths.
 Less interruption through labor contro- Versies at machine shops makes the iron and steel industries more fully employed than in recent weeks. and for another week there is assurances of vigorous ac- tivity at mills and furnaces. In many in- stances promised deliveries cannot be made before July 1 and urgent business that is now offered cannot be undertaken. Ii is also noticed that much foreign busiess is available, but manufacturers are few to make bids. On the other hand, it is stated that quiet conditions will soon be the rule and fires will g out for the customary Summer oVerhauling. This may be the case at few plants, although the requirements of railroads and other conditions are such as to render any such suspensions very ifgportant. Large sales cf 3cssemer pig reported last week have since been denied and foundry iron is now the favogite, especially at SNuth m points. No alteration is recorded in prices aside from a moderate reduction in gray forge No decrease Is seen in ship ments of boots and shoes from Boston. forwarding continuing far in excess nf other years, but actual production of the shops is slightly reduced. Quotations are shaded on a few grades, particularly as to boots and seasonable goods as we'll as fall deliveries are moro quiet.

London Financial Cableeram.

NEW YORK. June 2i.-The Commer- cial-Advertisers London financial cable gram says: The stock market was su- premely idle and trading drifted through out the session with prices still sagging. American stocks were idle with the rest when buying orders from New York in Wabash. Union Pacific and Canadian Pa cihc stocks caused a pronounced jump ip these shares. The better feeling was the result that fractional rise took place all around. The close was dis tinctly cheerful. The Improvement in Ca nadian Pacific was interpreted to mean that settlement of the strike is at hand.
