NEW YORK, Feb 3.-The cotton market

regular changes. The old crop months were 6
points higher to points lower while the new
crop positions were to Is points lower.
At first trading quiet. The builish
sages from the New Orleans bull leader last
night led to a belief that supporting orders
might be expected this morning. and in addition
to this, cables were a shade better than expected
just before the local opening
This led to a hesitation at first. and for a few
minutes prices showed little change Then II be-
came apparent that New Orleans was not buying
The New Orleans market easy. the estimated
receipts were heavy, and after the local
opening Liverpool began to break points at a
clip. This precipitated another wild show OF sell

At this level IL appeared that selling orders

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
NEW YORK, Feb 3.-There two possible
results of the pending monetary demands from
the corporations. The resultant lifting of capt.
tai from the market may increase the bank loan
fund or il may liquidate bank loans. through
placing bonds with home and foreign investors,
and paying of with the proceeds notes In the
hands OF banks. On this point. the chief OF a
large railway system remarked the other day:
IN my opinion the bond offerings OF this year
will be nothing like as large as they were last
year but Just conditions are more favorable
for the placing Of high-class securities, and un-
less something disturbing happens. the indebt-
edness now carried with the trust companies
and banks will be funded into long-term bonds.
If anything happens TO prevent this, then short
time notes must again be aoated 10 provide for
current liabilities"
market and the apparent willingness OF the
banks to release funds on time, the preference
of bankers is still heavily in favor OF street
loans" as against corporation obligations. This
tendency has been emphasized this week. when
banks at Chicago. Philadelphia, Boston and
other commercial centers have been hurrying
funds here TO loan time for just about half
what their own customers would have paid them
for use in their own enterprises

NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-The death Of Mr.. w. c.

the opening of the market in local fractions.
This weakness spread to the active list of roads

NEW YORK, Feb. S.-Trading was restricted
in the stock market to-day and dizziness super
vened very early in the business session. The
market was reactionary in tone. weak in spots,
and altogether unsatisfactory from the point
of view of the professional trader. General
sentiment is inclined to be bearish. and it must
be confessed that there is more logic back of
this position than there is the bulish side
of the market. We called attention last week
to the peculiarties of the monetary situation
and pointed out that the inflow OF funds from
the interior would he speedily curtailed. We
suggested that the increase in cash which has
