New York. March Awhile the mar
ket for stocks remains dull the absence
Of LIQUIDATION and the comparative
strength of the market indicates that mod
crate advances may be expected. While
the foreign situation is not encouraging
the real factor which operates against ac-
tivity is the long delayed decision in the
Northern Securities merger case which
NAV be handed down next Monday, and
which may be delayed for several weeks.
Prices hardened perceptlbly today, the
most active issues Missouri Pacific, Read

stock, and it acts as though the stock was
being accumulated for an advance.

to 90 cents and July to 94A, then reacted
two cents for May and one cent for July,
Corn and oats stronger with provisions

Cotton l. 0tteg

Raleigh, n. c., March 1.-The develop
ments Of the week have been somewhat
peculiar When the very small visible
supply. the light receipts and the alb
sence Of pressure on the market are taken
into consideration, ii is not difficult to
understand that an individual operator IN
New York sold out his cotton. Trees
l,roke through 14c Others took the cot
ton: bull sentiment was strong, and with
cut any assistance prices advanced to
about 15c. At this point the leading bull
interest re-entered the market, bought
cotton and carried on the advance to Ice.
A feature of the advance this week has
been the strength in Liverpool and the
sales of 10000 bales of spot cotton Tor
three consecutive days. With the sensa-
tionally light movement and the rather
alarming situation in Liverpool 1t has
not been a difficult feat to run prices ID
Ice. But the technical position OF the
future market and the fact that spinners
have withdrawn from spot markets IN this
country, render the situation very DIT
ferent from that existing at 13c when we
were so anxious to have everyone play the
bull side On basis OF 16c Tor May ana
July cotton there is a strong disposition
on the part of holders of spot cotton in
the South to hedge in New York On
the last advance to 171ac here this same
tendency resulted in collapse While
the present situation is somewhat differ
ent in that there is no general outside
speculative long interest 10 be shaken out
en- a crash. still the market at the present
level and in view Of the lack OF buying py
spinners is not what we should call
healthy one Too much depends upon the
attitude OF one interest. 1t will be re-
membered that a severe panic took place
not many weeks ago, because 1t was ru-
mored that this one interest had sold
out. While probably not likely that thus
one will not be as severe, we are OF the
opinion that a similar announcement az
this time would result in another sharp
break. For this reason we are not IN
clined to advise the purchase OF cotton,
According to Secretary King, OF the
New York Cotton Exchange, the in sight
movement so far this season IS 2S1,9OS
bales less than last year. The total
movement into sight thus far this season
is S.S49,T47 bales, as compared with 9,UoG
$50 bales up to this time last season.
The market for cotton futures closed
very steady.

ReroTts of gross earnings of railroads for
the fourth week in February, although
showing a large proportion of losses COM
raled with last year, are relatively bet
ter than for precading weeks. A decline
in Northern Securities on tn curb was
he remainder of the recurring effect to
be looked for from the Supreme Court
decision on Monday. Attempts to SILL
ST. Paul on the favorable January state

closing was heavy.

cables received from England asking that

decline being caused by disappointing
Liverpool cables. Buying orders soon
sent prices up, but heavy offerings car

heavy buying was felt ard strong re-
covery was made. In the trading, May
