INCREASED COTTON RECEIPTS
@. S. Parker Talks Of the Heavy Cotton
Movement and The Eagles
Special Edition.

In conversation with an Eagle
representative yesterday Mr.. G. 5.
Parker gave some interesting fig
ures regarding the heavy cotton
movement as indicated by the rec
ords of his office for the years 1904
and 1905 up to Oct. /. Mr.. Parker
ginned last year up to Oct. l, 2253
bales; and this year to the same
date he has ginned 2204 bales.
The Lawrence warehouse weighed
last year up to Oct. /, $3.50 bales,
and TO date this year has weighed
500 bales, an increase OF 1858
bales.
Mr.. Parker believes the bulk of
the cotton is already in, and that
from now on the movement will
probably show steady decrease.
He says Rryan has weighed more
cotton this year from Leon, Madi-
son and Grimes counties than for
two years past, and that the peo-
pie say they get a much better
price here than elsewhere. In this
connection Mr.. Parker gives the
Eagles trade edition much Of the
credit for the results this year in
putting the advantages of Bryan
as a trading point properly before
the people Of this and adjoining
counties in timely and practical

Big Sale of Lake Shore.

the neighborhood of $7,500,00O, which is
said to have gone into the purchase OF

the Pennsylvania interests are now SAID
to hold in the neghborhood of 40 per cent
of the entire issue of Erie stocks which
are pooled, according to popular report.
New Haven and the Hill Morgan party
are believed to own at least 20 per cent
of outstanding Erie stocks-possibly the
amount of this latter holding has been
underestimate. Baltimore and Ohio and
Lake Shore own slightly less than ma
jority of Reading stock, but enough ad-
ditonal stock to give absolute property

Testinq a Market.

There are many ways by which pro-
fessionas test a market, that is to say,
to ascertain its real strength or weak
ness. Jake" Field, the leading room
trader or sealper is probably one of the
most expert operators of the present day
in that respect. His speculative senses
are attuned to catch the slightest change
and to carefully measure the force OF
every current and wave of opinion. He
had been bearing the market for two or
three weeks, but finally reached the point
where he deemed 1t wise to take in sail
and feel his ground before entering upon
new commitments on the short side. The
market had not acted entirely TO his sat
isfaction and he thought he detected evil
dence of strong support lnder certain OF
the stocks he had been persistently ham
mering. He decided to make a test and
accordingly secretly placed selling orders
with about thirty brokers. He then made
a noisy and ostentatious tour of the floor.
buying right and left of everything in
sight When he had finished he made
the discovery that every share of stock
he had bought had come from his own
brokers' In others words he had been
buying his own stocks. He Immediately
jumped to the conclusion that the street
was bare of stocks and that 1t would be
a most excellent time for him to shift his
position, which he did without moments
hesitation. He bought in his short stocks
and then turned bull for the time being,
loading up with $4,000 to $1,000 shares in
side OF an hour. The incident marked
turning point in the market and was the
beginning of a very important recovery
In prices Others besides Field acted on
the theory that the market having been
sold to a standstill rally was In order,
and bought accordingly, although many
who pursued this course became bulls
only for the moment reserving the right
to change their minds and their positions
as the wind might veer. The successful
market scalper does not permit himself
to become opinionated He has no pride
In his consistency and can reverse himself
with lightning-like swiftness and without
feeling the need of making apology or ex-
PLANTATION.

Value of Short Haul.

Since the subway on Manhattan island
went into operation sufficient time has
elapsed to demonstrate the value to the
surface roads of the short haul. Before
the subway began business the surface
sengers for long distances to the serious
inconvenience of those who only wanted
to travel between intermediate points. As
an immediate result of subway competi-
ton there was a sharp falling off in the
earnings of the surface lines, but this
break In revenue has since been entirely
recovered. the gain being almost entirely
due to an increase in short Laul traffic.
People who formerly walked few blocks
rather than submit to the iostle and in
convenience of standing up in crowded
ears now find 1t possible to obtain seats
and they have taken to riding The
surface roads claimed that this would
be the ease. but they had nothing to go
on except theory. They can now point
to figures in proof of the correctness of
their position One effect has been a
partial restoration of confidence in the
value of Metropolitan Railway securities,
hrmer market having been made for
them. Another reason for the better
feeling in the stocks of surface lines and
guaranteeing companies Is the growing
belief that the combination behind these
properties will control most of the pro-
jected new subways with auxiliary sur
face connections and extensions The
Belmont combine Is commonly believed to
have reached the limit of its power in

HELPED Recent Decline.

The life insurance companies contrib
uted in an important degree to the recent
decline in the stock market. They in
dulged themselves in the pleasure of a
general housekeeping. With one i'm
pulse they proceeded to get rid of every
thing they had in the way of doubtful
securities. at the same time taking the
precaution to reduce their holdings of
such stocks and bonds as might subject
them to the criticism of having too much
of one thing One of the counts in the
attack on the Equitable was the charge
that it had too much money in Harri-
mans securities. Oother insurance COM
panies, taking note of this, lost no time
in putting their houses i'm order against
any investigation which might be made
or moral Indictment b ought This spasm
of reform on the part OF the insurance in
sders is generally regarded as a very
healthy sign The storm signal hOsted
over the Equitable Life Assurance society
served as warning To every other kim
dred organization, Even the New York
Life. with its over-burden Of Morgan Sc
curities. has so lightened its load that 1t
can now pass inspection with reasonably
clean hands. although at one time there
would have been a big scandal had 1t
been attacked with anything like the
Niciousness which has characterized the
raid on the Equitable.

Frank Plat Concerned.

Frank Plat is said to be in with SEN
ator Bracket in some of the litigation
brought by the Saratoga Senator against

the street that Plat drew up the brief
in the suit against the Equitable directors
in which the issue is raised of damages
for money alleged to have been recently
diverted from the Golfers of the society
to the pockets of the insiders On the is
sue raised in this particular suit the
courts may order full accounting and
incidentally settle the question of the real
responsibility of the directors. Some law
yers hold that If this latest Bracket liti-
cation Is forced to a finish the actual
responsibility will finally lodge not with
the entire directorate, but with the men,

street for day or Two. Our nome spec
ulators took the cue from London, Paris
and Berlin and sold stocks freely. The
little furry blew over, however, and the
change in sentiment was followed by
sharp upward turn in quotations The rea-
son why the American IIoney and stock

be found in the fact that we have become
