COTTON FUTURES.

NEW YORK, May 26.-The cotton market
opened steady at a decline of to 10 points
under moderate liquidation. The decline
was hardly as great as warranted by the
early cables. owing to more or less at the
lower level by sellers of the previous day,
and the new crop ruled relatively steady.
for while the weather map showed gen
orally favorable conditions over a large por
ton of the belt, there was talk of lower
temperatures in the West. and forecasted
showers for Eastern States were not indf-
Gated by the map, nor did the trade consid-
that they were likely to prove more
than scattering sprinkles. Following the
call. however, the absence of bull support
caused a slight further decline. with July
selling down to 12.69c and October TO To- 70c.
But IL was evident that the market had
been sold quite heavily on yesterday ;
break. and with the triple holiday approach
ing, shorts showed a disposition to cover.
which soon steadied the market and during
the middle and late session prices showed
ually upward. Around l2S1c for July, there
was heavy selling by house with German
connections and slight setback, but later
room covering tirmed the market up again.
with July selling at l2S5c and October at
- soc. The close was four or five points of
from the best and steady at a net decline
OF points 10 an advance of 3 points. Trad
gin was not active. sales being estimated at
only $4,000 bales and transactions seemed
TO represent evening up rather than the put
ting out of fresh ventures. The approach
ing holidays probably explained this lack
of fresh interest and the less aggressive at
titude of the market leaders. Liverpool will
be closed tomorrow and on Saturday, but
will reopen on Monday.

BROKERS VIEWS ON
THE STOCK MARKET
IA. r. Thompson & Col

NEW YORK. May 26.-To-day's market
realized the expectations of the morning.
in that il was inactive most of the day and
at times almost stagnant. Transactions re-
fected merely the evening up of contracts
over the holidays and prices did not show
a definite trend at any time during the
session Many of the usually active moor
traders were absent to-day, attracted by
the more alluring prospect of a good race
i'm the Brooklyn handicap. II is believed
that the dizziness will continue tomorrow
and probably a number of brokers Will take
advantage of this to leave the city to-
night for their holiday outing.
Meyer & Kiser.I
NEW YORK, May 26.-Absolute stagna-
ton prevailed in the stock market to-day.
but the tone throughout was relatively
firm and prices closed higher. There are
few in the financial district who are not
interested in the prospective earnings of
the United States Steel Corporation. and
during the past few weeks much has been
heard of lower prices for the stock. as a
result of poor business and decreased earn
ings. We are in position TO state that
the earnings of the Steel Corporation for
the present quarter will be a very pleasant
surprise to stockholders We understa nd
that the earnings for the quarter will he be-
tween 100000 and 600. There is not
the slightest reason to fear that the divi-
dend on the preferred stock will be reduced.
Ii is highly probable that Steel preferred
will sell considerably higher. There are
many indications pointing to agreement
between the conflicting factors in the cop
per situation. and Heinze is already elimi-
mated according to the best information.
Undoubtedly the strongest stock on the list
to-day was Amalgamated Copper. IL was
most active, and the buying was of an
excellent character Steel preferred was
firm. Union Pacific and Southern Pacific
manifested a good tone and showed nc
pressure at any time. The Realty plan
fell fiat The traction stocks were steady
ST. Paul showed some strength. The Smelt-
were strong and fairly active. Money
showed no change.
