STOCK MARWET WAS AGAIN THROWN
 INTO EXCITEMENT.
Operations In Few Speculative Leaders of Day Highly Cougested-0ains and
 Declines Throughout List.

New York, Feb 75.-The stock market was thrown into excitement again today oy the violent speculation in the trunk lines and Pacific stocks and there was revivai af the speculative enthusiasm of the early part of the week, which was chilled by the break of Thursday consequent upon the feverish movement In the Southern iron stocks
 A glance at today's sales list will dis close how highly congested were the opera tions in the few speculative leaders or the day and a study of the days net cnanges reveals that emotional phase of the trading was not so overwhelming as to preclude thrifty disposition to take profits on very large scale In numerous stocks while the advantage offerod of the sustaining effect of the d,minant movement.
 There were gains throughout the list. but there were also small declines as the result of the heavy realizing of the sale and Union Pacific closed unchanged from last night. The bank statement was re- garded as favorable and rallied the market from its considerable reaction. The decrease in the loan item of the banks is attributed to the taking over of loans by the trust companies and to transfers due to the lend ing of foreign banking houses

 LETTER.

(By Direct Private Wire to Virgin & Faunce. 8 Managers; Phone T3s.)
 New Orleans, Feb. 25.-It was a quiet day on the cotton exchange, much quieter than Saturday sessions have been of late. Opera tions were chiefly confined to evening up over Sunday. Even scalpers saw nothing in the market for the moment. The trade, as whole. appears waiting for more light on the March situation about which all sorts of ruInors have been put out. The market opened steady. with prices at a decline of from l to points. Liverpool was about as expected. but the weather was extremely ia vorable and this sent prices below the level of yesterdays closing and reports from the country stating the belief that with contin- ued fair weather the movement would in- crease during the coming week held prices down throughout the morning. In the trad ing up to II o'clock prices gradually sank on a narrow and dull market until the ac-

 Washington, Feb. 25.-(Special.)- Debonair and beaming, Major William Frye Tebbetts left for Alabama this morning to get his uniform.

LovEMAN q CO.'S COTTON LETTER.

tby Pr1Vate Wire from H. X E. Beer
 New Orleans, Feb. 25.-Market closed at about the lowest of the week. 7.26 for May. compared with [. s4 last Saturday. The more favorable weather in belt during past few days changed sentiment somewhat and re- ceipts assumed much larger proportions
 Liverpool transacted an exceptionally 6S,000 balns of American, against 31.Ovu last year. but as they have the stock to GOO ono year ago, and afoat at of 120,- 900, against t14.00O. the large local demand there had but little influence upon market. Quitting Liverpoors statement, the weekly statistical reports favored the short side of accounts For the first time in long than last year, 160,000 against 139,0 and although English spnners taklngs were 94.O0O compared with 72,ooO one year ago. accepted 165, 900 against 225,o0O last year: New England's takings amounting to only last year; Takings by Northern mills and they only total sSo,00o bales for the past one year ago. now 275.OO0 less than last year; since Sept: 1st 4.S54,00o. compared with 1,6s9;o ooo, while the South is credited with 1.292,000, against 1,208, 900; Europe. including the United Kingdom. 3,9S7. 900. compared with SCOT. .00o the whole worlds takings to date figuring 6.763,0Oo, against
 New England, however, can not afford to keep out of tho market .as the dry goods markets of tha North are active with indi- cations ahead for a heavy spring trade. A renewal of the demand from this quarter would only tend to raise the consumptive basis from It's present low level of 1O,447, ,UOO when compared with last year. and at the same time would add materially to the movement.
 The bone of contention is that the South will not market more than what is re- quired, probably not more than 11,50O, 900 bales. Advtces from the interior are to the effect that movement is increasing at pri- mary points, which would indicate a much larger run of receipts at the ports in the According York Chronicle. preparation of the land for tn next crop has made but little progress on the whole, the soil being too wet to blow. There is time left to make good this delay. since there Is good season in the ground and unless farmers keep good their pledge to withhold cotton from the market, values apt to work lower until more is known | of the proposed acreage reduction.
