STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York March 9--The action of the
stock market today v6rifiod Wall Street
aphorism that the expected does not hap
pen. dsorganized market and violent
declines were looked for today by COM
mon consent. The event proved that open
ing prices, where there were declines, were
the lowest The factors that made for re
covery were at work from the outset.
There was a vigorous contest between
the contending elements of reaction aud
recovery during an hour of furious ac-
tivity. By the time the reactionary ten
doncy had been arrested and the recovery
gathered force for the rest of the day.
The closing was rather unsteady, but not
far from the top level. The stock mar
kets habitual disinclination to do what
is expected is due to the keenneas with
which operators are able to anticipate
the future. 1t was clear enough from the
weakened position of the banks as shown
by Saturdays bank statement that liqui-
dation of stocks must be resortad to.
This expectation proved correct today
and the banks did in fact call loans to a
very large extent and stocks were thus
dislodged and forced upon the market.
But the keen foresight of the bear party
had evidently been anticipating the COM
ing of this forced liquidation by their
LARGE selling of last week, so that they
were ready to buy stocks in order to
cover their short contracts and take their
profits today. Buying of this character
forced fractional advance in Union Pa
cific and Southern Pacific in the very face
of the opening tide of liquidation which
was aggravated by the accumulation over
Sunday over selling orders by mail, tele-
graph and cable from all quarters. 1t
slso developed during the day that while
the local banking houses were calling
loans the foreign banking houses in the
city We're in abundant funds They were
able to make loans on call at the open
ing at seven per cent The exchange
market was freely resorted to. to replen
ish the funds of this lending so that the
call loan rate was forced down to six per
cent. even while the active borrowing OF
the day was still in progress and money
rates broke to nominal figures after the
demand had been satisfied. The sterling
rate broke go to 65 points under the flood
or loan bills offered With the immediate
apprehension regarding tho money sup
ply thus relieved, the pressure from the
SHORTS became more active and late in
the day they rushed up Southern Pacific

(SpccldI TO NeWo ana ODSeTSCF.)
New York. March 9-The market is
acting beautifully. Nothing to make
anyone nervous about holdings this
morning break at the opening gave
every one a chance to buy in short cot
ton and conservative traders did so The
market acted as if it had been sold out,
and this began to show itself as the
day wore on August shot up from 800
to 9.22 and May ran about twenty points
higher. July advanced nineteen points
to 9.52, and then had a break to 9.4j,
Tie feature of the market was short
covering Shorts we're about as nervous
this morning as holders were last week
The technical position seemed better
much improved by the purging of this
decline With report Of danger from
an overflow of the Mississippi River in
the South and more rains coming to give
color to this report there was STAN
pede on the part of bears to get In some
Of their cotton We look for a better
market for few days and any scare
over floods will easily turn May towar is
ten cents again. The bull clique has
not sold May cotton. Now it is a ques-
ton how shorts will be able to get in
the cotton without boosting prices. The
short August taken in this morning can
be sold again on a bulge tomorrow. In
less the situation becomes acute there
will be sharp break. On any further
advance to enable shorts to cover again,
but as long as rains continue and floods
are promised the tendency of the mar
ket should be towards a higher level.
10 NOT sell Nav cotton On good bulges
over nine and quarter cents take
the short side of August until floods arc
really reported. Then we may have
wild market for a day or two.
Cotton futures today ranged as follows

towns which il has not heretofore had

canton through Marion. The deal is an
important one to the people in the
Western towns and has long been
wanted.
Almost the whole upper end of the
county was here yesterday afternoon
to hear the Blankinship-Sc Islander
suit which was set to be tried before
Justice o. c. Erwin in the court house
at one O'Clock. Mr. Geo. c. Justice ap-
peared for the defense and Mir NJ. l..
Edwards for the prosecution. The court
house was fairly filled and the twenty
nine witnesses were all on hand when
at about four O'Clock Attorney Edwards
arose and announced that the prosecu-
ton had decided to withdraw. The army
of witnesses were called up and after
considerable figuring the cost of the case
was shaved to $3.50, many being peri
suaded to not prove ,neir tickets. To
your correspondent Mr. Edwards eX-
planned as his reason for Withdrawing
the prosecution that his client could not
produce the evidence he told him that
he could. and that he could not have
been successful with his case without
bringing the woman into the trouble
and that the woman was as guilty as the
man and would have been sent to Jail
The defense would have claimed black
mail. 1t is said that had the suit not
been compromised there might had been
serious trouble before the final end
1t has been generally reported around
Rutherfordton, the information coming
from Asheville, where it is said it is
talked a great deal ex-senator Pritch-
ard was or would be a candidate for
Congress in this the Tenth district, in
case Congressman Gudger was unseated
In letter received last night by your
correspondent from Mr.. Prtchard he
states that he has no intention of run
ming for Congress in this district and
that he could not understand that such
a rumor was started. The Republicans
in this county would like to see Mr.
Prftchard get the next Republican nomi-
nation, but upon learning that he will
not be a candidate they say that the
Hon. Thos Settle will surely be the
nominee Of their party They admit
freely that Mr.. Pritchard can get it if
ne wants it.

Cotton Letter.
Especial to News and observer1

New York, March 9.-As pointed out in
our letter Saturday morning, the cotton
market has Quoted down as far as flu
lures are concerned While at the same
time spot cotton has yielded and remains
firm at practically the highest price OF
the season and we suggested that 1t was
well to buy on soft spots for the present
with the view Of taking profits on bulges.
This policy is very advisable and cspe-
cially so because if the advance is TO be
resumed Immediately, as we believe it is,
instead of realizing moderate profits, a
stop order could be entered and carry
the contracts as long as the market shows
strength. AS we have said before, we be-
lieve cotton is going to sell higher in the
near future than it has sold at any time
this season. But all things considered, it
is better to buy only on recessions.
There is considerable gossip about Mr.
Price and Mr.. Sully riding down in the
same cab, and particularly since Mr.
Price has been credited with having COW
cred an enormous quantity Of shorts to-
day. This is significant.

New York, March 9.-The dry goods

been quiet and buyers evince tendency
to refrain from active purchasing for the
time belong The first rush of the jobbers
season is over, and although a continue
tion of normal business is expected. or
ders will not reach an usual aggregate.
NEW YORK COTTON.
New York. March 9-The cotton mar
ket opened weak at a decline of to II
points under liquidation and short sales
encouraged by the lower Liverpool
cables The Liverpool market was eX-
rected to report an advance of l 10 2
points to accord with the close of the
New York market on Saturday. but
prices there at the time of the local open
ing were 2 to 3 points lower, and at the
close of the English market this decline
had been increased to net 2 to points
In addition to the lower Liverpool cables
as an influence of declining prices, the
Houston receipts for tomorrow were es-
tlmated at $500 to II 500 bales compared
with 5,629 bales last year. 1t was also
seen that owing to large clearances the
port receipts for the day would consider
ably exceed previous expectations. and
did in fact turn. out 81 .524 bales against
$4,000 last year. Private cables attributed
the decline at Liverpool, both to unfavor-
able accounts from Manchester AMI to
tho withdrawal of spinners from the mar
ket. IN the local market the early sell
ing carried prices a matter of one to four
points below opening, May selling at J54
and July at 932.
A recount of the stock at Galveston
was reported to show a loss of 5000
bales. Toward the close however. the
room took profits, and prices sagged
back a trihe, with the market finally
steady 2 to points higher, this repre-
senting recovery from the lowest of 10
TO IL points on the active options. Total
sales futures estimated 100000 bales.
