ket closing unchanged to points low
er. This was, if anything, under eX-
pectations, and with the weather again
favorable, port receipts still running
heavy and accounts from the dry
goods trade no more favorable, the reg
ulatien market influences apparently
favored the bears. The market opened
at decline of 3@6 points on the list
generally, while May, still dominated
by its speculative position, was points
higher. Trading was very quiet and
there seemed little disposition to sell
at the decline. After brief interval
of irregularity the bull leaders bought
moderately and rallied prices to about
last nights finals. During the later
trading prices continued to show a
generally upward tendency under sup
porting orders, and some European
buying while wire houses reported
Southern business on the advance.
Speculation continued comparatively
quiet, however. July sold up to 11.05c,
August to 10.72c and September to
9.S4c. Toward the close there was a
little more activity, and July was bid
up to 11.15c. Then the list turned
easier under realizing, but was finally
very steady, net to II points higher
on all months except May, which
closed 10 points lower. The sales were
estimated at $4,000 bales.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, May 23.-Hopes of turn
in speculative sentiment were again
disappointed by the action of to-day's
stock market, in which acute weakness
developed under free outpouring of
stocks in liquidation from all quarters.
The selling movement gathered force
with the progress of the trading, which
was most active at the close, and about
the low point of the day.
A violent break in United States Steel
stocks soon after the opening had a
very unsettling effect on the whole
list. The only explanation of this
special weakness was a rumor that
the Chicago plants of the company had
shut down. The trading was somewhat
disconnected also by the large increase
in the engagements of gold for export
to Argentina on Monday, bringing the
total shipments for that date up to ST.
100000. In the early selling there was
evidence of support for Pennsylvania
and its comparative steadiness served
as a partial offset to the weakness else
where. But that stock was amongst
the leaders of the decline at the last
losing 2 full points. The most con-
spicuous liquidation, however, was that
in st. Paul, which was forced down
3h points under enormous offerings
making a new low record for the move
ment by margin of nearly 2 points
The final break took the average level
Of the market to the low record of the
year, effectually wiping out the recov-
cry Of yesterday and the day before.
The unfavorable criticism of the un-
derwriting of the new Pennsylva MIA
stock at the subscription price to the
stockholders was a depressing factor
in the general market. The implied ne
cessity of paying a commission to a
syndicate to secure the subscription to
the stock was regarded as a. discour-
aging indication of the condition of the
market for securities. The special
weakness of st. Paul was attributed in
part to the reports of a threatened
strike amongst the freight handlers at
Chicago. The market steadied a mo-
ment on the appearance Of the bank

Saturday, May %.
The cotton market closed at the ad-
vance to-day, though it was a notice
able feature from this distance that
the bulls were either Indifferent dur
ing the day, or were encountering diff
fculties in their campaign. Private
kilograms received in Savannah during
the day expressed confidence in a
higher market for all months.
The spot markets continue to show
the same lethargy as for some days
past, with none willing to get into
them at the prices now being asked
for the product. 1t is the current be-
lief that as long as the present specu-
Iative boom is on, spot operators will
steer shy of the market. The big sales
around $500 bales of spots at Augusta
was reported here to-day to be for
the account of Inman & Co. Another
local runor was that the Augusta mills
are to shut down from June to Sept.
l.
The rise in the turpentine market
was the distinct local feature of the
day. The closing was firm at sic, with
the demand of the best character. Ros-
ms closed firm at the advance. De-

NAVAL STORES.

Saturday, May %.
SPTRITS.-The turpentine market
opened firm at 50%c, sales 81 casks, and
closed firm at Sic, sales 81 casks. The
urgent demand that developed late for
turpentine was the feature of the local
market Exporters appeared to be
eager for supplies, and under the BEN
eficial effect of competitive bidding the
price was worked up to the closing fig
ure. The impression prevails that the
present crop may not be as large as 1t
first expected, owing to the drawback
operators have had from. unfavorable
weather for the past several weeks.
They have been thrown back in gath,
ering the product, and this time cannot
be made up. The days receipts were
529 barrels, and the exports 1927 bar
relS.
ROSINS-The rosin market closed
firm at the figures below. The open
ing was unchanged. Opening sales, l.
5S2 barrels, and the closing 9O2 barrels.
The demand was good. Prices as fol-

New York, May 23.-Our market
opened with sales. of July at 1092@
10.94c, closed 11.09c, and after selling at
11.04@11.05c, ruled at 11.02c at p. IN.
Liverpool was disappointing and the
opening was very quiet. After the first
ten minutes prices became steady, then
firm on report that large Stock
Exchange house had become interested
in the July deal. On this the close was
firm, especially on that position which
advanced some Is points from the open
ing. Weather for the new crop is more
favorable. A substantial advance is
expected in Liverpool on Monday in
answer to the strength here. The tenn
per of the trade is towards buying the
new crops on all depressions and to
avoid the old crop as too dangerous on
either side; outside factors to-day were
unfavorable for speculation. The spot
market was quiet, points decline.

side showing that the crop has under
gone decided improvement in the past
week, according to mail reports and
Geographic adVices through the usual
trade papers which give special atten-
ton to this matter The trade, how
ever, prefer to wait for the weekly bu-
reau report next week and the month
ly bureau report on condition and
acreage to be issued on June 8. The
stock in Liverpool, including that en-
route lost during the week 1000 bales,
the American alone losing $4,000 bales.
AS we shall contend with the remark
ably small movement of only IS, 900 bales
the coming week for last year. the fig
ures are likely to be bearish for this
coming week, our first sales were at
decline of 8 to points. The proceed
ings were quite tame this morning COM
pared with the recent intense excite

themselves felt and pending their re-
turn the general trade was disposed to
adopt a waiting attitude. Port re-
