STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Feb 10.-The spirited
strength and activity with which the
stock market opened today were not
maintained and the tone OF the market
became gradually more reactionary and
at last easy at general net declines run
ming to point or more in few OF the
leading active stocks The most promi-
nent of these was Wabash preferred il
which so much of yesterdays strength
and activity conferred. This made the
speculative sentiment peculiarly suscep
tible to the fact, which became very
obvious this morning that there was very
much selling going on of Wabash pre-
ferred under cover of the new strength
which il was sought to develop else
where. The whole of the day was quite
strictly technical and was little inf1u-
enccd by any of the days news. The
size of the individual orders in Rock Is
land for which the accepted unit seemed
to be 1000 shares, gave an artificial APP
redranCe TO the movement in that stock.

Cotton Letter.
Especial to News and Observer

Especial to News and Observer
New York, Feb. 10.-In our market
letter of one week ago today, when May
cotton was at $50 we stated that We
were confident of an advance of 40 or 50
points before there was a decline of 10
points.
Since that date the market has adj
vanced 63 points and while We feel con-
fident that eventually the spring options
will sell considerably above 10 cents, we
wish to caution our friends against buy
ing on extreme bulges. However the
situation is so strong that there will
be but slight reactions, and we think
purchases on set backs Of 8 to 10 points
entirely safe. The position of cotton
was never so strong as it is today and it
is gaining strength very rapidly, and we
expect extreme prices in the near flu
ture.

Campaign literature is being very
freely used. Chamberlain's organiza-
ton has been sending out pamphlets at
the rate of 100000 per, day since Sep
TENDER l, or over 12,OOO,OOO a month.
The Midland Liberal Union proposes to
distribute 100000 leaflets before the
end of the campaign. The Free Trade
Union had distributed 100000 pamph-
lets at the end of September. If all
these are read, the voters will have
had their brains muddled enough to
vote that no more literature be printed.
