TRADE is WAITING
FOR Development
Cotton Opens With Prices AL
most Unchanged
ALL MONTHS WENT DOWN
This Caused Some Buying, But Market
Was Irregular and Weak Dur
ing Most of the
Day.

New York, May 19,-The cotton market
opened steady at unchanged prices to a
decline of 1 point with the trade waiting
developments. Gables were about steady,
Liverpool showing a disposition to go no
further than fols<w the local declines of
yesterday and the trade at first seemed
apprehensive supporting orders would be
In the market leading to the momentary
hesitation. Almost at once selling orders
reached the ring and prices broke sharp
ly. July which had opened at 1921 sold
down to 1902 with hardly pause and
the rest of the list showed almost equal
weakness.
As prices went down there was con-
siderable demand. Shorts showed dis
position to cover and there was some
buying on the reaction theory, sufficient
to cause momentary reactions and con-
siderable irregularity. In general way
the market showed weakness however
and at the lowest at ID cents for July,
IL 05 for October and II cents for De-
cember. Following this there was some
thing Of rally in the late trading on in
creased covering and bullish wires from
New Orleans.
A prominent Wall street operator con-
tinued selling right UP to the close, al
though the market showed a recovery In
spite of that pressure and closed at
decline of 4@S points on the old crop
while the new crop positions were UNI
changed to points higher. The rally
toward the close was helped by the con-
tinued light receipts. The interior move
ment reached only GAG bales for the day
and was said to be smallest ever before
witnessed so early in the season.
Weather reports during the day were
generally favorable, aside from continued
low temperatures in some sections. Sales
futures estimated at 100000 bales. Re-
ceipts at the ports today were 3719 bales
against 4607 last week, and 5572 last year
For the week 10000 against 25,7iS last
week, and 1864 last year. Today's re-
ceipts at New Orleans were 1888 bales
against 2649 last year and at Houston 300
against 2579 last year.

Cochran & Co.'s Stock Letter.

BY Ware Leland
New York, May 19.-Stocks was sub
jected to raid in early trading today,
and then relapsed into innocuous desue-
tude.
Trading was carried on in desultory
way, with scalping by floor operators
who snatched eighths as IL they were
points. The market did not show much
pressure during the latter half OF the
session, but there was no bullish ag-
erosion and some of the street operators
are becoming skeptical of the existence
of large short interest. We believe
that on weak spots the rails heretofore
indicated should be bought for small
turn.
This is a traders market and scalps
would be welcome to all. Admiral Togo
reports that the Japanese cruiser Kasuga
rammed and sank the cruiser Yoshima
In a dense fog off Port Arthur. Only
ninety Of her crew were saved. On the
same day the battleship Hatsuse struck
a Russian mine and sank. Three hum
bred Of her crew were saved by torpedor
boats.
Total sales today were 1880.

BY II. & B. Beer.
New Orleans, May 19.-Liverpool was
not encouraging and our market opened
to points lower on near options ana
1 to points on late, subsequently de-
clined Ii to II points additional on all
months owing to further liquidation stop
orders and absence of support. On the
break better demand for spots was ap-
parent at concessions. This and the ex-
pectation of a bullish visible statement
tomorrow caused an advance of rs to 30
from the bottom on summer months and
IA to II on the late Near the close values
eased off slightly making the net gain
about points on all months. The
amount to be brought into sight for the
week points to about 1900 as compared
to 81 200 last year The stock at ports
today is only 1000 more than last year
and Its anticipated that 1t will now grad
ually run on decreasing scale as there
seems to be an improvement in the de-
mand for spots owing to better basis for
exporters to work on. On the reaction
there was a steadier undertone and SEN
timent is not 20 pessimistic. A further
enhancement may be established In con-
sequence of the small movement and the
cool weather prevalent throughout the
south proving spinners became freer buy
ers of spots. If the visible supply Is
bullish 1t will also be an important fac
tor in maintaining prices. The old crop
months will continue TO be Influenced by
the action of Liverpool and splnners and
the new position by weather conditions.

AIRsHIP THAT FLIES.
Baldwin Machine Scores Success at St.
Louis Fair,

Baldwin Machine Scores Success at st.
Louis Fair.
The aerial problem at last seems solved
and by an American, whose genius
challenges the best inventions OF Santos
Dumont and whose machine may win for
him the 100000 prize. The dirig1ble
airship constructed by T. s. Baldwin and
known as the California Arrow made
successful ascent at the st. Louis world 8
fair grounds and obeyed every wish OF
the operator, Roy Knabenshue. 1t was
one Of the most marvellous demonstra-
tions of the possibilities of aerial naVlga-
ton ever given. Knabenshue was In the
air twenty minutes, rising to
height of 1000 feet, and brought his ma
chine safely to landing inside the Aero
drone at the worlds fair few feet from
the starting point. He handled the huge
vessel as an oarsman handles canoe.
1t answered every move he made with
the rudder. It scared or sank as he Will
ed, 1t sailed with or against or across
the wind, as he directed, and in Its flight
back to the landing place it came true as
carrier pigeon and landed so lightly
that there was not a Jolt. Knabenshue
was caught by the cheering crowd as he
sprang from the narrow seat from which
he had operated the machine and his
hands were wrung until he was weak.
He was elated and joyfully ran from one
end Of the machine to the other, pattlng
and caressing the cross pieces and bars
whenever he could free his hands from
those who pressed around him. AS he
got clear of the machine sixty volunteers
caught it and carried it into the Aero
drome. After sailing around in circles
and fancy figures for some minutes
knabenshue finally turned his machine
back westward toward the Aerodrome
and landed it safely and gracefully with
IN few feet of the starting point.
Anabenshue's second test Of the Baldwin
airship was declared by all who saw 1t
to be the most successful ever accom-
plished in America and probably Won
derful as any ever made by Santos-Du-
mont In France.
