It was beaten 28 to 106-and all opposition then ceased. The closing scenes of the debate were accompanied by a dra- matic incident which narrowly escaped being tragedy. Delegate Marcus A.

ROOM MUCH MYSTIFlED

New York, May 9.-The cotton market opened steady with prices l point lower to points higher and for a time dis played tolerably firm front on demand from shorts and on light support from outside sources. The west and Europe bought In a conservative way, as did spinners and prominent export houses. July worked up to 9.17 and other months in proportion. The Liverpool cables were about as expected and receipts at the ports were comparatively light Predic- tions pointed to a light insight show ing for the week and a bullish visible supply statement. Later, the whole list eased off under liquidation and what ap- peared to be pressure from strong inter- market followed a zig-zag course with the room much mystified by the orders received from certain sources. A light Houston estimate for tomorrow's receipts then rallied prices to be followed by a break to 9.10 for July under a tremendous estimate for tomorrow's receipts. But just when everything seemed to favor serious break the whole market turned strong on strikingly bullish worlds vis- ible supply statement. The latter indi- cated decrease for the week of l6O,OOO bales, against a decrease the same week last year of only 107,0O0 bales. From 910 July quickly climbed to 9S and for the rest of the day held quite steady At the very close efforts were made to force prices off and profit taking figured prominently. The market was finally barely steady, but net 1 to points high CT. Total sales for the day were esti- mated at 25o, 600 bales.

tie attention in the early market. Prices improved a trifle, but cables were bear ish and there was an absence of usual Liverpool business or advices going to show how the trade there stood, and the same may be said of the home situa- ton. the South having little to say and as little to do. The belief was early in the day that we might witness a dull market until some new feature came to the front temporary rise of 10 points caused some excitement soon after the opening when Liverpool sent some orders to buy here, but there was an absenC . of confident feeling which should accom- pany a rise of much importance. The rise was soon emptied out and legiti- mate influences were again at work. Port receipts for the day were 5000 against H. 900 last year The weekly Liverpool re- port showed 3O0OO decrease in the stocks of all kinds, 24,00O decrease In the Am erican stock, 11000 decrease in the afioat of all kinds and 5000 decrease In American afioat. This is a bullish showing until we compare with last years figures which show the stock at ports to be 274,0O0 more than last year at this time and the American stock 2770OO more while the afioat stock of all kinds is 640O0 less than a year ago. Weather in the South was fair today except rain where needed, and this embraced Mont gomery, Charleston and Savannah. Geor- gia people in New York have been as- serting for some time that the crop badly needed moisture there.
