COTTON LIFTED
BY HIGH CABL Is
Active Covering Also
Proves a Factor.
THE WEATHER Is FINE
This, Together With RumOrs Thai
Leading Bulls Are Unloading,
Causes a Decline From the High
est Prices Of the Day. Net
Gains Made.
(By the Assoelated Press. }

New York, May 10.-The cotton
market was hardly so active as the
last two days, but ruled generally
firm with final prices showing a fail
gain for the day.
The opening was firm at an ad-
vance of to 10 points in response to
higher cables than expected ana ac-
tive covering. The weather map was
considered favorable, however. and
after working up to net advance OF
about to 13 points rumors that lead
ing bulls were taking advantage of the
crop. created by covering TO unload a
part of their holdings checked the
demand and prices sagged off to With
i'm about four or five points of last
nights finals. On the decline leading
spot people started buying. there was
a renewal of bull support and early
sellers covering, sent prices in the
early afternoon up to a new high level
for the day or a net advance of about
IA to Is points. Toward the close there
was realizing and prices worked off
from the best. The close was steady
at a net advance of 7a14 points. Sales
futures estimated at $4,000 bales.
Private advices as to the size of the
new crop continued conflicting, and
spot markets were said to be steadily
held, although demand was reported
light

STOCKS and Ronds,

New York, May 10.-Prices reversed
the movement of yesterday and sag
~ed in heavy market. The only sig
niiicance waich can be attached to the
movement was the almost total alb
stention from the dealings of any real
holders OF stocks or any real seekers
for stocks. The inability of the room
traders to get prices far away from
a given level is the unfailing sign Of
the quieScence of all substantial in
terests in the market, whose opera
tons form the basis for the only sue
cessful campaign by the purely pro-
feSSIonal element. Liquidation seems
TO be completed and the supply OF
stocks in the market is exceedingly
small. The initiative came from Lon
don again, where the outcome of the
settlement is awaited with some re-
neWed apprehension, which was shown
by the renewal of light liquidation
there for American Securities. In the
current discussion about the stock eX-
change most stress was laid on the re-
vived discussion by the President and
Secretary of War of the railroad rate
regulation measures. indicating the
unchanged Importance attached TO
this question by the administration.
Money was extremely easy, but
sterling exchange was strong and the
question was again canvassed whether
the small demand in the local money
market would not permit an outgo OF
gold. Reading was helped by the re-
ports from the anthracite trade.
There were some recoveries from the
extreme decline which were not wide
in themselves, but the closing was
easy.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales
(par value) $1.S75,000.
t. S. bonds were all unchanged on
call.
Total sales $4,000 shares. includ-

NO SCHOOL CENSUS.
School Board Fails To Have It
Taken.

No school census has been taken and
the time has nearly passed during which
it can be made effective in the matter
of state apportionment Of school funds.
The law prescribes how the school
census shall be taken and when, but
the time has passed without the pera
Torrance of this duty.
The new school board will have this
matter added to combination of I'M
pleasant items that will come up fos
consideration in the immediate future.
1t is all an unpleasant affair, but I'M
less the News misses it's guess the
school board, city council and city Of
ficers will promptly proceed to the
Strengthening out of the existing com
bination in manner that will be effect
i've. 1t is time that official recklessness
should be vigorously checked up.
