The necessity for responsible inspection
Is recognized bv those interested in clean
sport. The high scores so frequently
rolled nowadays may indicate an i'm
provement in bowling. but the use of pins
smaller than the regulation pins, and
the consequent change in the spots are
the real cause.

New Orleans, May THE spot cot
ton market was quiet, but very firm.
The offerings were light and factors
were holding for full prices and in
some cases higher grades were held
Nc above posted quotations. Quota
lions advanced 1-16c on all grades.
Futures were active to-day with the
advance of the last two days contin-
ued. Both the New York and Liver
pool markets were followers of New
Orleans, and Liverpool reluctantly al
lowed a fairly wide advance in both
spots and futures. These conditions
had the effect of greatly Strengthening
the local market. At the opening July
was points and August 10 points
higher.
Prices then assembled with leaps and
bounds, May selling up to 10.S4c, gain
of IL points over yesterdays closing;
June gained points, July II, August
80. September 20, October TO- November
and December 5 each. In spite
of the high level of fu-
lures fluctuations were wide,
and the advance would probably have
been greater if profit-taking had not
been INDUCED in by the longs.
From the highest figures of the day
prices receded to 8 points on the ac
tive months, the board at the close
showing a net loss on May of 2 points
and a net gain of points on June, IS
on July, 26 on August, 13 on Septem-
Der and points each on the other
months.

COTTON FUTURES.

New York, May THE cotton mar
ket opened firm at an advance of 8
to 10 points, and following the call dis
played still further strength under firm
Liverpool cables, smaller receipts, the
continued strength of New Orleans and
renewed indications of an uncovered
short interest in the near months. May
opened at 10. sec, and sold up to 10.S9c,
against 1O.7Sc, the closing price of yes
terday, thus showing an advance of ID
points, and new high level for the
season. July reached 10. Ice, and the
general list at this time was net 4Q13
points higher. The new crop months
again showed relative easiness as a re-
suit of the favorable weather, and the
better tone of private crop advices. The
bull pool sold moderately at the higher
levels of the morning, feeding out May
carefully with the apparent intention
OF preventing any more serious SIAM
pedes of the nearby shorts. Under this
influence in connection with the fav-
orable weather the whole list eased Off,
selling down to a level net, g points
higher to points lower. Following
this, however, the market was again
rallied by buying based on the sensa-
tional developments in the August OPP
ton at New Orleans, which sold up SO
points from yesterdays close. The in
terror movement was rather bullisn,
and this also helped the advance which
carried prices back to about the best
of the day, and the market at the close
was very steady at a net advance of
SQ16 points, that being within a point
OF the best on July and August, while
May was within points of the highest.
Total sales, futures estimated at $780,,
900 bales.

THE RICE MARKET.

Advices from the South note strong
conditions everywhere. On the Allan
tic coast offerings are quickly taken,
with but little carried over. At New
Orleans, under active demand, prices
are strong at advanced figures. The
interior, Southwest Louisiana and
Texas confirm hardening features, and
report planting progressing rapidly I'M

spell Having been followed by copious
rains.

abroad note steady tone on cargoes.

ture being quite heavy at a number of
points where most needed, especially
in Mississippi. Furthermore, the indi-
cations pointed to still more rain, and
1t is taken for granted that the situa-
ton may, and will improve decidedly
from now on, although it is feared
that the amount of replanting will ex-
coed anything known for in numbers
of years, and the question arises, how
far it will be possible to make up for
lost time, especially as seed is scarce
and labor none too plentiful. For the
time being it is possible that new crop
positions may show some weakness,
because of rains, and we prefer to wait
for further advices as to their effect
before concluding that crop is making
good progress. There is a big short
interest in May, in which a big bulge
is predicted. Gables were steady at
EOS points advance. Yarns were quiet
and unchanged, and in cloths there is
more disposition to do business. Port

closed firm at 45c, bid. sales 1877 casks.
On the better demand the market show
ed a decided stiffening tendency to-
wards the closing, with factors disin-
clined to accept the bid price. So far
the turn has been halt more than
reaction. Since the market struck 45c
resistance to any further decline has
been strong, and with the favorable
statistical position and the comparative
good demand for the offerings advances
will not surprise the trade. In fact,
they are looked for now in many quar-
tiers. More confidence is expressed. If

is a sharp bidding for the stuff prices
promise to improve from the behavior

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, May 7.-Prices went
downwards on the Stock Exchange
to-day without any very clear reason,
although the theories current for the
decline took a wide range over the
whole financial field on the part OF
the board room traders who had the
market to themselves.
The simple explanation seems to be
that these professional operators who
have been buying and bidding up
stocks to a moderate extent during the
week find themselves with little COM
pany and feel that they have reached
the limits of their courage in specula-
ton commitments. The process Of sell
ing to take profits finds as narrow a
participation in the market as that
during the advance.
The factor which came in for most
discussion to-day in seeking an ex-
PLANTATION for the decline was the
problem of the foreign exchange and
possible gold exports. The develop
ments in connection with the new
Transvaal loan, for which subscrip-
lions were opened to-day, were of the
utmost significance as bearing on the
exchange question. The terms of the
loan are much as expected and the
strength of sterling reflected the con-
tinued direction of funds towards
London. Subscriptions for American
account are small, but the maturity
of foreign loans in this market makes
the London pressure for money effect
i've in New York. Meantime the ques-
ton of gold exports is still open. An
other cause to which the days depres-
sion is attributed was the slump in the
sinking fund bonds of the United
States Shipbuilding Company. These
bonds have never had more than a
nominal market. but their last sale
price on the exchange was So They
were offered at that price to-day and

Thursday. May Z.
This was a day of records in the cot
ton futures markets, with prices soar
ing to flights in some cases not re-
corded in years for this season. Ma
nipulation is the most generally ac-
cepted explanation of the rise. 1t does
not come unexpected. For weeks
large majority of the market letters
from the trading centers have caution
cd traders against tampering with the
old crop options, which it was predicted
would be subjected to violent manipu
lation. Spot cotton closed higher, but
the demand was not urgent. Europe
appears to be pausing, with exporters
inquiring sparingly for supplies. Sa-
vannah closed firm, sc up. Offerings
through the f. o. b. market were light,
and the demand correspondingly indif-
ferent
The turpentine market closed firm at
45c bid, with the feeling among factors
decidedly more favorable to the article
than some days ago, when its future
was by no means assuring to them. To-
days operations brought sitter ten
dency. and the belief in an improve
ment was freely expressed among fac
tors. Resins closed at the decline,
with the demand satisfactory at the
lower level The wholesale markets
closed steady. Details of the different
markets follow:

then at successive concessions as large
as s per cent. at time.
Sales were made as low as ~. No
explanation of this incident was Of
fered.
The activity of the bear faction was
apparent in the circulation of rumors
OF the serious Illness of a conspicuous
operator in stocks and also in vague
assertions of coming bond issue by
a Western railroad for as much as
S35, 900, 900. Neither of these rumors
was substantially substantiated. Fa-
vorable factors were wholly ignored.
There was a much greater show of au-
thority to-day for assertions that the
suspended Rock Island and st. Louis
and San Francisco zeal was about TO
be consummated. The market closed
in fact with general conviction that
an announcement was imminent. The
decided liquidation in the wheat mar
ket was calculated to relieve any acute
fears of damage TO that crop by last
weeks weather. but the Changers and
Pacifics were notably affected by the
late liquidation. The admitted weak
ness of the foundry iron market and
