WALL STREET. REVIEW
THE STOCK MARKET CONTINUES '. :. NEARLY SERGEANT.
Hesumption of Selling of United States Steel fs the Heaviest Drag on
 the Market--Bonds Dull and Heavy.

New York, May 19.--The stock mark et continued inert and almost lifeless soday: Whenever any activity devel- opea the tone became soft. showing the orders in the very narrow market. when prices ceased their downward tendency the market fell into profound uuiiness and neglect. thus re1ecting take stocks on an upward scale. So argued the room traders, whose oper- ations are devoted to following the movements of larger operators. As the made up of the room traders transac- tlons, they were drawing deductions rom their own operations. In fact. the trading offered no grounds for trading started with some light gains due to the sympathetic influence of the London market, in which rumors were reported to be in circulation of pros- ras et the ss sons of S sens m tns of United States Steel preferred on the continuing effect of pessimistic reports from the iron trade was the first drag tone spread to other quarters. The sub-treasury statement. showing gains in the expense of the banks for the week of $11,290.000 promised another serve of the banks, the more so as the $250,000 in gold coin exported today does not figure in the statement. Ster- ling exchange showed a slightly yield ing tendency and this was said to be due to sterling loan bills in the mark ct. The Bank of England maintained It's discount rate. but the open market in Paris receded and the Bank of France statement showed the growing plethora of resources of that institution The weather map was pronounced ideal for the crops, but the contradictory strength in the wheat market neutral ized the effect of this. disposition to dispute over the maintenance of rates on business diverted to the rail- roads by the Interruption of lake transportations by the strike was re- garded as a symptom of the growing pressure to secure traffic, and atten- tion was attracted by the reports of drastic retrenchment projected by the railroads to cut down expense accounts. Notice late in the day of an offer for subscription next week to a $35, ,000, 900 Cuban bond issue is another factor promising to prolong the demand for gold for export. But this did not pre- vent prices from retracing their pre- vious course in sympathy with rally in United Sttaes Steel preferred, leav- ing the days net changes again wholly insignificant.
 Bonds were dull and rather heavy with some late recoveries Total sales par value, $1,265,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

guARp BREAK IN PRICES SOON AF-
 TER THE OPENING.
ks Values Declined, There Was Consfd- cradle Demand, and shorts show cd a Disposition to Cover
 Recovering at Close.

New York, May 19.-The cotton market opened steady at unchanged prices to a decline of point with the trade waiting 0exelopments. Cables were about steady, A1yerpoof showing disposition to go no further than follow the local declines of yesterday and the trade at first seemed comprehensive that supporting orders would be in the market owing to the mon eIAry hesitation. Almost at once, how. prices broke sharply. July which had opened at ls.M sold down to 1902 with hardly a pause and the rest of the list showed almost cqualN weakness. As prices vert down there was considerable demand. Shorts showed a disposition to cover and there was some buying on the uAActf0n theory. sufficient to cause mon- eksry reactions and considerable irregular sky. Tn general way the market con- x1rmed to show weakness, however, and at <ha lowest sold at 1Sc. for July, 11.05 for fnE this there was something of & rally in the late trading on increased covering Hxd business wires from New Orleans. A Drominent Wall Street operator contin- aIN& selling right up to the close, al- though the market showed a fair recov- cry In spite of that pressure and closed nx decline of to 8 points on the old uKcp while the new crop positions were unchanged to 5 points higher. The rally fInued Night receipts. The interior move MsAnt reached only 646 bales for the day and was said to be the smallest ever be- fore witnessed so early in the season. WNafher reports were generally favorable a@ide from continued low temperatures in some sections. Sales estimated at 5OO,OOO bales.

@. E. PIERCE a CO.'S COTTON LETTER.

(By PrlVate wire rom Gtbere & ClAyl
 NEW ORLEANS. May 19.-There was a halt in the donward tendency of cotton to- day. Selling pressure had spent It's force for the time being, and indications of some inquiry for spots from abroad, at the de- cline, somewhat dispelled the feeling of pes sinism that had grown conspfcuous of late. The action of Liverpool signified noth- ing more than @ willingness on the part of English traders to be guided by develop ments in American markets. Recent cables stated that spinners had a working basis around present level of prices apd traders are anxious to know if any activity will re- suit. Further liquidation was accomplish ed in early transactions here, establishing lower prices. but sentiment somewhat fa- vored the reaction theory and a moderate recovery enSued The appearance of an earnest spot inquiry at this perfor could ex- ercise a very beneficial influence. but with out a substantial demand for actual cotton any improvement will prove temporary. As the weather in the belt is more favorable for the crop and may inspire more confi- dence in a large and early movement of the new yield.

Caldwell. Ward . Co.'S Marks. Letter.

NEW YORK, May l9-To- day~B' cotton markets show plainly that statistics have very little to do with the price of staple where the demand is small. It is hardly within the memory of present cotton men that he has seen interior receipts assume such insignificant figures so early in the season. and yet prices of cotton must go to a level to where consumers will buy more freely before there is any great improve ment in values. The manner in which the orally rally tonight is on the belief that the decline has shaken out many weak longs and rather cleaned up the situation, but the trade conditions which prevailed in the early part of the week are prac- tically the same. On New York's close to- night Liverpool is due to come to uE Friday.
